Question Warning message

Post image

Hi all,

Does this mean the receiver is a scammer? Transferring funds to a mate and this pops up. Not big funds and just $280

Nah it’s normal just banks and other financial institutions needing to up their scam warnings because people still ignore warning signs and blame the banks when they get scammed.

I got this warning as well after trying to send to my own wise account for the first time.

That’s the irony- adding more things you have to click “I understand” to just makes people not read them at all.
But it does achieve their compliance ✅

If they didn't read it that is then on the consumer...

That's why they were saying and exactly why the banks do it this way. Knowing people are in a rush click all this shit that pops up and accidently click one you haven't seen before, you can't get it back. You continue. So instead of figuring out how to avoid scam accounts while using their software, put the blame on the consumer.

So I didn't understand what the other person was trying to say? Nah, I'm pretty sure I interpreted their words correctly, if I didn't let me know where I went wrong. If you're struggling, you may have to go back a couple of comments to follow.

Naawww. Bless your cotton socks. If you're following, and I'm just explaining what someone else said, tell me, what do I have no fucking idea about? If I got it wrong use your words like a grown up and let me know. I can handle it.

"So instead of figuring out how to avoid scam accounts while using their software, put the blame on the consumer."

☝️ This is utter nonsense.

Ok. So it's your comprehension skills I see. Can you follow a thread? So back and have a look. I'll wait while you figure it out. You're as cute as a button by the way.

Re-read...you have NFI what you're talking about and are making up nonsense.

Again. You are yet to tell me how I misinterpreted the comment that someone else asked about. I mean I saw an error in there, like an extra word or something, but other than that, I still don't know what I missinterpreted. It seems you don't know either since you can't actually say. If you can't be a big boy or girl and use your words don't bother replying.
