I would appeal to the press -- try to get them to write stories about how the FTC is attacking an honest, hard working small businessman. Appeal to my congressman and senator to see if they could help a constituent creating jobs.
But here is why they couldn't do that -- no one wants to be in the same room with this guy:
"Thousands of consumers who applied for a payday loan online were charged up to $54.95 for a prepaid debit card with a zero balance. According to the FTC, the debit card company sold Visa- and MasterCard-brand debit cards through a payday loan marketer whose Web site homepages contained a loan application form and a button for submitting it. Consumers who clicked the submit button were taken to another page offering four products unrelated to the loan, each with tiny “Yes” and “No” buttons. “No” was pre-clicked for three of the products; “Yes” was pre-clicked for a debit card, with fine-print disclosures asserting the consumers’ consent for their bank account to be debited. Consumers who failed to change the debit card offer to “No” and simply clicked the prominent button labeled “Finish matching me with a payday loan provider!” incurred the fee for the debit card."
Sounds worse than GoDaddy if you can imagine that
