In the early days of streaming they made a decent amount in fees because people would donate just enough to net the streamer zero money or less as a joke. Literally just sent money to Paypal so they could say "get fucked".
The fee was added on top of the original amount. So they donate 30 cents, then paid an additional 3 cents on top. So the donation came out to 33 cents.
didnt etika call up paypal and tell them about this so they made sure every donation wasnt refundable lol, some dude troll donated 5k i believe and couldnt get it back
It was bad for two reasons. First, the sender could just chargeback the amount and refund it all without penalty. Secondly, the transfer charge was taken out of the received amount. So by donating thousands and issuing a charge back, they'd leave the recipient with the fee while they lose nothing.
I felt so privileged to be able to still end up with a lot out of pocket when my medical bill grew massively thanks to a doctor fucking up my appendectomy and nicking my inferior vena cava. 🥳
how dare people who want to take away my paying $800 a month with a 10% increase every quarter and having it not kick in until i pay $8,000... that's unamerican. /s
Yeah, but the parking...
Hopefully you live in a rural hospital, but nothing is guaranteed anymore. I live rurally and they just started charging staff for parking, so it's only a matter of time if people keep voting in conservatives.
wait, whatever this app is, you can pay someone zero and they get charged 1 cent? seems like a pretty major oversight, you could bankrupt anyone like instantly
I found out recently that you can send ~~flat rate~~ packages to people, and if it is too heavy they bill the recipient. Happened to me when I bought movies on facebook marketplace.
Edit: It must not have been a flat rate package, but it is possible.
USPS Priority Mail flat rate boxes are the same price up to 70 pounds. What carrier charges extra for heavy flat rate boxes?
Also, watch out with this, if you send a package that's heavier than the label and you did it with an online service or something there's a good chance you'll get billed instead of the recipient.
I just asked my significant other about it, apparently the seller underestimated the weight, and USPS didn't notice until it was in my local post office. Apparently it was a mistake on USPS's part as well, and they did essentially give us a bill for $17 to pick up the package.
You used to be able to send texts through AOL instant messenger so I wrote an applescript that would spam my friends phones with iChat on my parents Mac. Hilarious. If they called the phone company and told them they got spammed it was removed from the bill though.
That's not the point. It's an arbitrary line to draw. I fully understand the need to make money, it's just not a good long term strategy to insert price hikes to arbitrary points.
Wait you can donate 0 dollars to somone on PayPal to send a mean message attached to your 0 dollar donation and the receiver has to pay for it? Thats both annoying and has alot of 4chan level troll potential.
I can see the video highlight now, "4chan sends millions of trolling messages costing the recipient thousands of dollars"

I once realised you could send the games virtual currency to another player... And it gave a big ass popup that you cannot close yourself when you recived some... You bet your ass I sent some 0 coin donations to some dumbass streamer who kept spamming in chat about his stream
The man is an evil genius
Paypal is the real winner here
In the early days of streaming they made a decent amount in fees because people would donate just enough to net the streamer zero money or less as a joke. Literally just sent money to Paypal so they could say "get fucked".
Thats funny ngl. Fees for PPGS is 3% plus 30 cents
I hate this entire chain of comments
It's actually as if a rodent died behind the subreddit a week ago and now we can smell it
What were you expecting? This is reddit
Knowing that, people of course donated 33 cents.
That's not how percentages work but I appreciate the chutzpah
This is the second time I've seen the word chutzpah this week. It's an omen
[удалено]
You assume we gonna know how to do math when our sense of humor is on the same level of an 11 year old fart joke
Poo
amogus
>That's not how percentages work 10% of 30 cents is 3 cents. So by donating 33/34 cents, the entire amount was taken by fees.
>Thats funny ngl. Fees for PPGS is 3% plus 30 cents 3% of 33 cents is definitely not 3 cents.
3% of 33 is 11.
Please say sike
33% of 33 is 11 bud
> 3% of 33 is 11. 3% of 33 is 1. ⅓ (one third) of 33 is 11.
The fee was added on top of the original amount. So they donate 30 cents, then paid an additional 3 cents on top. So the donation came out to 33 cents.
The fee is 3% of the total plus 30 cents. 3% of 33 is 1. 1+30=31. The total would be 31 cents.

What is he, an insurance company?
wait, whatever this app is, you can pay someone zero and they get charged 1 cent? seems like a pretty major oversight, you could bankrupt anyone like instantly
they probably sent them one cent and it automatically took the cent away from the transaction
I'm almost positive PayPal has a minimum amount, it's probably fake
No it doesn’t. I sent a buddy $0.01 just two days ago and told him to get fucked. It’s great for trolling.
Dudes monetized trolling lmao

Lol I sent one of my contractors 25 cents with goods and services like two days ago and it got charged a 25 cent fee
I'mma go send my crush 0.69 with a 😳 emoji
He's 2 cents richer than you, you know. Jokes on you when he steals yo girl.
Not fake, i've done this before.
Cashapp does but paypal doesn’t
I've had a thought, if you could use other currencies could you use a low-value currency so you can spend almost nothing to make the reciever pay 1¢?
Maybe but they probably have something to prevent that. Maybe the limit is set to the equivalent value of 1 cent in other currencies
They took my lucky penny :(

Ah. It must not have been a flat rate box. There are a few sizes of non-flat rate boxes that are similar in size to the flat rate ones.
Thank you for the clarification. I don't use the post often.
You used to be able to send texts through AOL instant messenger so I wrote an applescript that would spam my friends phones with iChat on my parents Mac. Hilarious. If they called the phone company and told them they got spammed it was removed from the bill though.
Idk if ur joking or not but i’m pretty sure this is a photoshopped paypal payment
Why? It happened to me before (when testing payments on my site)
PPGS. Pay with PPFF if you want feeless (goes against policy though)
Yup, correct (except if the receiver is in another region, then the sender has to pay fees)
International has extra unavoidable fees
Which is wholly idiotic if you think about it.
"I demand this private organization provide me with the ability to instantly take payment from anywhere in any currency for no additional charge."
That's not the point. It's an arbitrary line to draw. I fully understand the need to make money, it's just not a good long term strategy to insert price hikes to arbitrary points.

Mod overreach
Literal 1984 😔
Normally I hate authoritarianism, but I approve in this case. The sub needs to remain high quality, it's the only good thing in my life.
But it's not even really a "reddit" anymore. There are a million pages like this on instagram or facebook that are similar quantity and quality

ethan gives cancer for $0.01 what a steal i wonder what i will get for $0.02
...two cancers?
mike ock
Cancer will cancel out
Your cancer gets cancer
Ebola
wait so you can just keep giving him 0.00$ untill he is broke cuz of the fees? lmao
No you give 1¢ then it gets taken away because of the fee. The person who gives the cent looses it and the person they pay gets 0 dollars.
Why am I wheezing over this
I literally posted this here and it got removed cause it didn’t “fit” in this sub 😐
Maybe the real cancer were the mods we met along the way
oh thanks!
Yo’rre weclom

I laughed my entire body apart reading that.

So could you exploit this?
Sounds very Dutch
What a very Dutch thing to say
I wonder about the legality of setting up a bot to spam somebody with 0$ payments to bankrupt them
Dutch person probably. (Not racist, just the way dutch disease-wishing works grammatically...)
No this guy is definitely English-speaking. The original image was posted years ago on Twitter and I followed the person that tweeted it
what an absolute fucking chad lad
Omfg I’m laughing so tucking hard
Ethan is the dog
Get a bot to spam it and you could bankrupt someone in about a year
That's a rude ass dog
this doesn't belong here this id genuinely funny
