- mapgrep 14y agoRight, my point is that neither service is ironclad secure. (By the way, loading and activating a prepaid Visa anonymously is more tricky than you'd think post Patriot Act - I'd venture criminals would more likely just grab a stolen CC). Interesting about the redaction. Presumably that's to guard your home if the picture is ever compromised?
- MichaelGG 14y agoDo you have more details about prepaid VISAs and Patriot Act? As of a bit ago, you could just walk into any store and buy one with cash.
- Karunamon 14y agoNot sure if the PA is what caused this, but the last time I tried to set up a prepaid card a couple years ago, (one of those off-the-shelf drugstore ones), the actual card could only have $100 put on it until I filled out a form online that required all kinds of PII, including the requisite SSN. The prepaid card only worked in person too, never online. (I assume they did this by having a bogus or placeholder name attached in their database, which would fail any basic verification checks done by an online seller, but work just fine at a local retailer.
