Fraud Warning on purchase attempt? - kriscj - 05-17-2021
Hello, Pine community.
I attempted to buy a pinephone this weekend (mid-May, 2021) using my credit card and was declined, and knowing my finances are OK, asked the bank the reason for the decline. They stated that the purchase was blocked because the vendor has a history of fraud reports against them.
Now I'm not sure what to do... I could probably go through PayPal, but SHOULD I? I love the idea of the pine universe of devices and am an IT guy, so I'm a good early adopter, but this fraud warning has me really worried.
Interested to hear your experiences and opinions on the matter, please?
