Sounds similar to what was going on with credit cards in 08.

Small amounts were being charged on credit cards and later replaced with no comment from the credit card companies.

Liz and I have been warning freepers for years about how dangerous many non profits are, and how they fund left wingers in local elections to national elections, often intentionally.

Something is rotten here.

Thanks for persuing it and posting what happened.

Please keep us posted re what you find out. I would appreciate freepmails if you learn anything.

This describes how the rats look at any election, any opponent daring to challenge them, any scheme to raise money and any scheme for illegal voting!

Possibly this is how they are able to report that 0bama raised however many millions... they just count the money coming in, but don’t deduct what they had to put back.

Thanks for the heads up. I suggest keeping only two credit cards-- one with a low rate of interest in case you need to use it for short term financing; one which earns rewards for everyday purchases paid off monthly.

It would be nice if one card did both, but it doesn't seem to happen that way.

Anyway, if you check only two cards on-line regularly and deal only with reputable banks (not Bank of America types), you should be able to nip this kind of stuff in the bud.

We are so close to the American Dream dying.

One election day to make 0’s dream of US to be another France.

Peoplesmart.com is somehow connected because they withdrew money and redeposited it the same day.

I'm not so sure that's the case. Who is in charge of the funds for your youth baseball group? Surely you have a treasurer don't you? I suspect somebody in your organization that has access to those monies made the payment then at the last moment reconsidered and recovered the funds........

When credit cards are run there are very few checks in place. The number, the zip code, and the expiration date are generally all that are run. Most places also use the security code on the back of your card.

In this case someone with a fat finger input the numbers. It is highly likely that several people within your zip code share a common digit and expiration date. The key is the security code, which OFA doesn’t collect. No conspiracy, just incompetence.
