Check this out: I just made a $10 donation to Obama's campaign from the barackobama.com website with my own VISA card, but a totally bogus name, address and phone number. My identity for this donation was from a person named "Notta Realperson", from 10 Fantasy Road in Fraudsville, NY.
THE TRANSACTION WENT THROUGH!
Obama's website does NOT verify credit card charges!
This website documents other examples of this.
Don't believe me? Try it yourself. |
Sorry you had to waste 10 dollars to prove a point.
