I fucking hate this shit.

Especially when the retailer does it. Like wtf dude, why do they care if its someone spending their money legitimately, or if its stolen, they get money either way. Is this some weird “we stopped fraudsters” PR campaign?

I’m wondering if the “@protonmail” or just non-Google emails they hate.

Btw: fuck Uber for that one time (about a year ago) when they blocked my account when I needed the return-ride. Wtf. Lyft worked fine for the return trip, fucking Uber lol

      Damn, lucky. I feel like some retailers just fucking hate me. I have a non-white name, and I’m in the US, so… and I hate to pull the “race card”, but I’m kinda suspecting if they just hate immigrants or something… 🤔

      Edit: I meant like: I think they use some AI “Fraud Detection” and my name got flagged because the training data they used for the AI were with American names, and so my name looked “suspicious” to their AI.
