nutzbuster 7 Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 It's their method of saying "You better hope you claimed this shit on your taxes, cuz if you didn't..."Hey Scram, I was wondering how the guy in your sig ended up looking like that! Link to post Share on other sites
scram 1 Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 ok haha big laughs. anyway, does anyone have anything useful to add? perhaps people that use mywebatm?The sad thing is, you think I'm "kidding".Seriously- interesting to find out what caused the IRS to seize the site, but if they now have the client list full of US citizens making financial transactions that went unreported on their taxes..... or the whale. Whichever you prefer. Link to post Share on other sites

bipolarbear 0 Posted November 17, 2007 Author Share Posted November 17, 2007 does anyone know how to cancel a withdrawal on FTP? can you just send the cashier an e-mail? it doesn't seem there is an easy way to accomplish this using the client. Link to post Share on other sites

bipolarbear 0 Posted November 17, 2007 Author Share Posted November 17, 2007 **** it. nothing's going to get accomplished tonight. i'll see what is up tomorrow. it seems you can get around all this by going to mywebatmcard.com, and i have only been using this since may, so i couldn't have claimed it on my taxes anyway.

bipolarbear 0 Posted November 17, 2007 Author Share Posted November 17, 2007 well, then transfer went through, mywebatm.com now leads to google, and mywebatmcard.com is the homepage. very, very strange...but i think everything is ok. Link to post Share on other sites

Unlikely that is where you would be redirected if they were going to "put it in limbo". Link to post Share on other sites

psujohn 0 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Contact support and see what they say.A little sleuthing didn't reveal anything conclusive.MyWebATM.com and MyWebATMCard.com are both registered through Domains By Proxy which mean you can't tell who really owns them. Could be the same person/company or it might not be.MyWebATM.com was apparently owned by some domain squatter and then switched over to the MyWebATM product a couple years back.MyWebATMCard.com is only a few months old.MyWebATM.com is 301 (permanently moved) redirected to google. This means that the server at MyWebATM is configured to do this. It's not something that someone did at the DNS level.A couple possible answers:1) their web server got hacked and someone is redirecting it to google for giggles2) a disgruntled employee is pulling a fast one3) for some legal reason they're not able to use the mywebatm.com name anymore (someone has it trademarked or something though that would seem unlikely) and need to switch to MyWebATMcard.com (though if this is the case they've done it poorly)FWIW, they list no ownership info and no real contact info (physical address or phone number) that I can see. It's highly unusual for a legit company to not have any of that info on their website. I know they've been around for a while and been vetted by some of the online sites but looking at their site I'd say the whole thing was a scam based on that missing info.
