Timmerman wrote a precious column on this (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2109753/posts). We were speculating on how these donations could get by without passing the smell test. I thought one way was the use of gift cards (like the Visa gift cards redeemable anywhere) that someone paid for with cash so the purchaser is untraceable.
The previous article discusses the appearance of foreign donations (unrounded contribution amounts). Could be Visa type gift cards purchased with foreign currency, then donated to Obama who then converts it to US $$$ so the amount comes out unrounded (234.17, e.g.).
Here's how it goes down. People with huge amounts of money buy a bunch of credit card gift cards (Visa, Mastercard, etc. in small denominations) in both the US and in foreign countries using cash so the purchase is untraceable.
Then these cards find their way into the hands of certain people who use them to make online donations to Obama and create names and addresses of donors.
You don't know who originally purchased the cash gift cards, you don't know whom they were given to and you can't trace who redeemed the card as a donation.
And once the Obama campaign discovers that the donor is bogus (Daffy Duck?), there's no way to return money to a bogus donor where the money trail is totally untraceable.
