Ceretropic Not Secure?

Original post in this thread

atrumpoeta · 42 points

Hello everyone,

I've ordered nootropics from ceretropic with great success in the past but a recent order didn't go through. Instead, someone tried to authorize a different amount of $ on my credit card in Shanghai (I'm in the US).

Has anyone had a similar experience? If not...beware in the meantime...

Dude just be careful, the processors based in the east that serve IOP's are notorious for going rogue or leaking like sieves after a few months.

To buyers what usually happens is a small amount is used in your country to buy phone top ups or similar to test if the card still works and\or has money. It is unlikely to get drained by someone from China as the bank would kill it before then.

Looks like the crackdown on SARMS hit you guys hard and they saw the rest and noped out. For U.S customers can you not add bank to bank transfers? That is common for UK RC vendors to do to skirt CC processors, just log onto online banking and do a transfer for free. Then again U.S retail banking sucks.

The current processor that is holding us over is very very secure. Don't worry about them.

We can add ACH transfers. The terms are just very unfavorable. It's all about the specific bank you are working with, and the risk they perceive. I think we should be okay now that we are working with a bank that was founded by one of our customers. They understand our business, and know there is very little risk. The other banks don't even take the time to look into it.
