NoblisCV took a long hard look and decided their method for distributing HITs just wasn't quite fucked up enough.

Theory I've heard is that it's identity theft.
That's why it's always different names and why it's paying out money that they for sure can't bring in with ad revenue.
For that and other reasons, I don't do them.

but where's the money coming from - even then?
are they looking to steal MY identity?

That makes sense to me. And I do love a good conspiracy theory. I've done 3. Going to have the resident IT guy check everything tonight, make sure everything is locked down.

Did you bury the old one in a shoebox in the back yard and put up a little tombstone?

Of course I did, I'm not a barbarian.

[catsoneverything]

Apparently from stolen credit cards. If this is true, the people who's money is stolen will most likely be reimbursed by the credit card companies...at least that's what I'll tell myself.

 

[hyway]

cite your reference

Oh, so you didn't put it in a longboat with all its cords and original packaging and launch it burning into a river then.

Not stealing your identity someone else's identity

It was on MTG like a month ago, I don't feel like looking for it. You don't have to believe me, just throwing it out there
