@levelsio Got hit by 1.5k fraudulent transactions from 'jake minas' in PH early May - was super scary especially with the threat of dispute fees. Have been blocking PH using Radar for the past month + other mitigations. Tip: Stripe will refund the attack transaction fees if you email

Had to refund and cancel 240 customers called Jake Smith from Philippines with $7,000 in card testing payments No idea why Stripe doesn’t catch these They even passed my Cloudflare CAPTCHA?! Had to block 🇵🇭 PH payments now sorry

I'm currently driving 3,000km across India in a rickshaw designed by a DALL•E prompt

@trisjburns Yes, same route! 🛺

@tinyprojectsdev The Rickshaw Run? One of the best things I’ve ever done! My route was Kerala to Rajasthan. What’s yours?

@Yourfahee Started in Kerala, awesome place!
