Krankenstyle posted:secfuck-adjacent, i used to be able to overdraft my debit card without prior agreement until like 2007ish (no credit, see) --- trick was to run between the various banks' machines because they didnt sync immediately. Then hungover me has the problem here it took the economic meltdown and a federal law to make it so your bank couldn't just let you overdraft and then charge you insane fees for it. the law doesn't bar them from doing it, it just makes it opt-in, so now the banks repackaged it as some kind of service, like "gee if your account is out of money your card will be declined, but with Super Account Protection Plus the purchase will still go through and you can just pay us a $50 overdraft fee for the privilege, isn't that great???"

Loky11 posted:alright, so I'll share some personal info, something I don't do on social media or forums. i get the feeling you're pretty genuine, but when people say "please explain to me why i'm wrong" with regard to LGBT issues (especially in places not really about LGBT topics) they almost always mean "please argue with me about why i'm right". this is a big reason why people are very apprehensive about engaging you with anything other than "go figure it out yourself"

maybe we should have a queer questions thread explicitly for exploring this poo poo? idk i get why people should put in a little effort to figure stuff out on their own and not expect others to have to explain it to them and all, but sometimes you do genuinely wanna ask / talk it through with others. it's just the security thread isn't the best place, and the yosqueer thread isn't the best place since it's meant to be safe / relaxing... i know a bunch of people were wandering into the yosqueer thread a while ago asking earnestly how they should go about doing [x] better and we kinda shuffled them out since it's not really the place for it, so maybe there should be a place explicitly for it? (i realize this isn't really a queer issue specifically, more of a feminist issue, but i think it still applies  )

spankmeister posted:Recently this has been a common tactic. They use passwords from leaked dumps that are available all over the internet to make the threat look credibile. It's also a very clever threat because it works on people's shame and most aren't savvy enough to figure how the scam works. on top of that all the ones i've gotten set the From header (or similar) to make it look like it was sent from your own account, which they point out multiple times in the text, because obviously you can only do that if you've hacked the account for real!!!
