BOA (Bank of America) did not like my Ivermectin purchase and put a hold on my card, warning fraudulence

BofA is the worst bank I have ever dealt with, I left them in 2006.

Well, most people that go to Starbucks aren't buying Ivermectin. Usually they are the people teasing you about ingesting horse dewormer. So I can see how the bank would see that is outside the norm.

That’s interesting.

Ordinarily, merchant banks are not notified of the specific item being purchased.... just the amount.

If the ivermectin purchase had any connection to flagging the transaction, that would mean BOTH Amazon and BoA have implemented credit card processing software that includes details of the actual item being purchased.

Very interesting indeed...

.

how would they know what you bought from amazon? It would just show up as an amazon purchase unless amazon shares their clients receipts with BoA

Yea when we buy Kratom we have to buy it,as a tea...Because debit card will not allow it ...ITS REALLY INSANE...BANKERS...

Not at all outside the norm-do you understand how many horses and horse owners are out there? The horses need to be dewormed twice a year. No way B of A should be pulling that shit.....

Yep. This is why I haven't bought any of this stuff through my bank (debit or credit.)

I've paid cash, or if I need to use a card for an online purchase, I go get a gift card (that doesn't need my name and SS# attached to it) and purchase it with that. The Vanilla cards have worked well with domestic purchases.

I had to deposit cash directly into my paypal account to purchase from a pharmacy in India, and that worked fine too. I didn't use my bank debit card through paypal though. It would still show up on your banking transaction description through paypal.

It's important to get a gift card - not a refillable debit cash card. Those cash cards need to be registered in your name. This way you just avoid all the bullshit they're trying to pull (or are going to pull in the future with "contact tracing" type stalking. (It's coming.)

Of course, .gov can still trace the shipment if they want to, but this way removes the bank fuckery.

It's incredibly depressing that it has to be this way, but banks are increasingly starting to target people for trying to save their own lives.

lol

Try buying crypto with a BOA checking/debit account.

They blocked that shit, I had to call and speak with a rep to get the purchase approved.

That's what I was wondering because the bank and Amazon would have to be partners in order for bank to know what I actually purchased and the amount was nothing out of ordinary ($51)

You are a BOA customer, patronize Starfucks AND Amazon, and expect sympathy from people when these Commies attempt to control you?

Sorry OP- can't shed any tears.

You should have stopped giving these Nazi bastards your money years ago, when they told you they hated you and people like you.

But keep feeding that beast. Maybe one day it will sink in.

All the banks are corrupt. It's unavoidable.

THIS

Move to a CU.

BOA is the CIA's Bank

And bankers are among the heaviest users of....any and all drugs they can get their slimey hands on.

Biggest hypocrites in the world. Love telling others how to live their lives- financially AND morally, but do the complete opposite.

Just like most lawyers and politicians.

Just doin' god's work, lol

I used to work for a call center that helped the deaf and hard of hearing make phone calls. They had a website setup but anyone could actually use it and there was a lot of fraud.

These frauders from Nigeria would call one place way more than any other by a large margin: Bank of America and they would have full access to peoples accounts. I have a friend still there and they still do.

Do not use Bank of America unless you want your info stolen.

Had Chase denie payment to Amazon when I went to by a 3 pack of Duravet paste. They still let me buy a can of Yoder's Canned Bacon so it ain't all bad!

your card was put on hold for another reason, OP.

something looked suspicious to them or their computers.

just call them up and solve the problem

that's standard now.

you can even get the receipt sent to your mobile phone banking app.

Keywords. Now their censoring our purchases...

woah I hope you set them straight and they unblocked your card purchase.

Barn talk

I hear Citizens Bank drops people for buying ammo

Where is OP?

OP did you call the bank and ask them why your card was on hold?

Why would anyone ever do business with BOA?


Might as well just give your money to balaam and fascia and the CCP.

BANK OF AMERICA???????!!!

WHY are you not using a CREDIT UNION by now??????

How can any sane person trust such absolute and total crooks with their money???

ur first mistake here was using Bank of America

Does it make you feel better to whine in public, OP?

No it’s not interesting. Banks do not know what you bought on Amazon. It’s just an occasional security check and we all get them.

Yep, what a whiner. Boo fucking hoo
