Crypto/Fiat Marketplace

[0xredhot]

I was wondering if anyone here would be interested in this product:

> People buy stuff for other people with card and get crypto in exchange for service.

The most obvious issue is that there would probably be many stolen cards being used to buy the productss. How would you handle this?

Nice concept. If you have cards you can start this kind of services. But guess who can trust you? Victims of Perpmate maybe. [1]
Are you about to promote another scam scheme after you was already red tagged for promoting a fraidulemt Perpmate service last January? Do you think you can fool the community with another unknown service? Your trust page says everything. Go find a legit job. You are trying in the wrong place.

I think there's someone before who offered this service in the services section, and I usually see this offer on other forums where you can buy something for your customer and get paid for it.

It is similar to purse.io they are going to buy from Amazon for you and send the product to your address, and you pay them in crypto. It's a profitable business, honestly, because the rate is different plus the fees. Meaning if you offer this service, it's profitable.

Great, this looks very similar to a pattern often used in fraud and money laundering. Just ask yourself, why would someone use your card to make purchases? If these random purchases become routine, the cardholder becomes the first target of investigation.

Fraud and scam is going to be the major problem with this kind of marketplace. You'll get to hire people to do stuff for you and if they will say that they have completed the task even it's not, it should be in your system. Another thing, why would a person use this type of marketplace if there are already a lot of it probably per country that they can hire someone to do such tasks for them in exchange of money that's being credited to their accounts? The competition is going to be the next thing that you'll have to deal with and you need lots of budget for its marketing.

Please show me one victim of perpmate, before you accuse me of something, check the facts not just read trust score and believe blindly, thank you.

I was merely validating idea, as I was reading trough reddit and some guy asked this so I wanted to check what is out there today, to me it should work as escrow where guy with card sets up the account and pays for it and then removes the card, maybe I am too naive to think it is easy maybe other guys in this thread are right about the other implications.

Good take, I was thinking this should work permissionlessly, seems more bad implications than I thought.

It's a common thing in the usual market places that offers services of an individual. Even the genuine and established ones, they're having this problem. And so if you can guarantee a solution to that and you're able to explain it well to the potential users and clients, I guess that they'll give it a try because if there's a guarantee for both end users. That's all they want, to get the services and have it delivered without being cheated on.

By starting this topic, you validate the rating in your profile. You should ask yourself few obvious questions; why should someone ask another person to pay for him using his card? Who can offer this service but someone having many cards? First thought is that you have access to many cards and looking to spend them in various stores with address delivery of supposedly) your custmers, after you proved that you are not about to promote a website but just discussing the idea.
