For the past decade my Buy Me A Coffee account got an average of one donation every one or two years.
But over the past week or so I got 3 donations of $6 or $9 each. All the transactions come from Hotmail addresses with usernames consisting of random sequences of letters and numbers, associated with Mastercard cards and accounts at the same bank.
This looks off and I reported it to Buy Me A Coffee but I'm wondering whether it's just me.

@amoroso I see this regularly with web sites. Usually (I think) its people with stolen card credentials testing them to see if the card works, before a MAJOR purchase. I suspect its safer for them this way.
I've contacted merchants about this happening, (especially the ones that succeeded) and they are 100% totally disinterested.

@Extelec Yeah, that's what I suspected.

@Extelec @amoroso Ugh. Not surprised though. If you ever got a big chunk I’d wait on using the money to verify it wasn’t fraud. Probably not a bad idea to report these anyways so there is a paper trail with the company.
(I remember stories about people who got erroneous deposits in their bank account, immediately withdrew and spent the cash, and were Surprised Pikachu Face when they ended up being on the hook for the tens of thousands of dollars they spent.)

@andre123 scuola e educazione in famiglia (che non esiste più).
Non c'è interesse economico a farlo, per cui rimarrà una minoranza.

@Otttoz @enki_2931 su questo li voglio vedere….

Magari, vista l'ospite di #propagandalive di stasera, mi guardo un film

Hugo, andrà tutto bene

@andre123 è vero, è un percorso personale. Ma è un percorso che scegli guardandoti attorno ed educandoti.
(Mi viene da sorridere perché l'idea di privazione come la poni è nella parte finale del mio libro). Ci hanno provato i guru del marketing a smuovere le masse ma non mi sembra più di tanto riescano a fare, forse perché siamo in una fase di abbrutimento totale.

@ro gli USA sono una causa persa, almeno in questa fase storica. Dovrebbe mettercisi la UE (seee ciao proprio!) tirando con sé i Brics (ovviamente paesi arretrati hanno diritto a migliorare il loro tenore di vita. A noi sta ridurre le tonnellate di superfluo per consentire loro di migliorare senza impattare complessivamente sul pianeta). E per far ciò occorrerebbe un clima internazionale mooolto più disteso. Altro che corsa alle armi… sarebbe la prima cosa da tagliare.
