Hillary for America processed a total of $94 in unauthorized charges to Carol Mahre’s US Bank account. This follows a pattern in which unwitting donors are charged multiple times, but always for a total of less than $100, which is a key trigger point for banks’ internal action systems.

The overcharges are occurring so often that the fraud department at one of the nation’s biggest banks receives up to 100 phone calls a day from Clinton’s small donors asking for refunds for unauthorized charges to their bankcards made by Clinton’s campaign. One elderly Clinton donor, who has been a victim of this fraud scheme, has filed a complaint with her state’s attorney general and a representative from the office told her that they had forwarded her case to the Federal Election Commission.
“We get up to a hundred calls a day from Hillary’s low-income supporters complaining about multiple unauthorized charges,” a source, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of job security, from the Wells Fargo fraud department told the Observer. The source claims that the Clinton campaign has been pulling this stunt since Spring of this year. The Hillary for America campaign will overcharge small donors by repeatedly charging small amounts such as $20 to the bankcards of donors who made a one-time donation. However, the Clinton campaign strategically doesn’t overcharge these donors $100 or more because the bank would then be obligated to investigate the fraud.

You’ve got to be kidding me.
You think that’s something, wait until she gets a hold of your taxes!
Sorry, you reminded of this:
She should contact Hillary HQ and ask for a “Tax refund”....
ROFL!! I’m rollin
Might I suggest they find a better and more honest candidate to support?
It’s great how the story covers the pattern of this happening in her 2008 campaign too.
Mentions obama’s campaign doing similar but not to the extent of clinton.
Also nice to read the banker say they have not had one call regarding Trump wrongly charging.
As Scarlett O’Hara said to Rhett Butler: If you can’t steal from the poor and get away with it, who can you steal from?
As Colin Powell said: She’s greedy.
This is one of her better schemes. See she will overcharge her donors. The donors will challenge the charge. The bank reimburses the donor. Then the bank’s fraud department goes after the organization that did this. By the time the bank gets around to doing this, the campaign will be over. Meanwhile, the campaign will have all of that capital to spend, or pocket.
Patience, and vetting.
Remember what the Beast said in the past:
“We’re going to take things away from you for the common good.”
So the story is false?

Pingout!!!!
Illary rotten klintoon double charged people for small amounts, just under the banks radar....
Skimmed from low income folks that gave small amounts to her campaign; it didn’t come to light till someone complained .
Illary is trash...
Here is Reddit's coverage:
A prominent figure in the fraud department of a top-three United States bank has tipped off REGATED that Hillary for America — the official Hillary Clinton campaign — may be overcharging small donors on purpose.Our informant, usually one who does not engage in politics whatsoever, claims that small donors call in to the bank, and get their account credited back with no problem or issues. However, the merchant can delay reconciling of the mischarge by disputing per bank regulations.
If true, our thoughts is that this is done to inflate the single donor numbers to increase theoretical financial support for the Hillary Clinton campaign, and to report these enlarged numbers to the Federal Election Commission (FEC.)
By the time the money goes back, they can then amend the FEC filings to reflect accurate numbers. However, this would not be done until after the election is over — so the inaccurate, previously reported numbers will remain in the public eye until they become unimportant.
The source, who wishes to remain unnamed, says that he reviews over 5,000 fraud claims each and every day. He has yet to encounter a claim about a Donald Trump affiliated campaign.
One woman in Minnesota claims that she donated $25 to the Clinton campaign via credit card. For her $25 donation, she was charged $100 according to the woman in Minnesota. If this is true, can anyone really be surprised?
Question: If these overcharges are used to get federal matching campaign funds, and she must return these overcharges, does she keep or return the matching funds?
I seem to remember something from 1992 about Bill’s campaign and the Stevens Group (or something with a similar name) involving last minute funding along similar lines.
There is NOTHING she does that excludes hubris or graft.
NOTHING.
