Hi now im understanding 8vape is a supllier. If i want to start my own thread can someone tell me how to do it. I thought originally i hit post new thread but must of done something wrong.I never heard bad things about eightvape until the last few months. Reddit for example, is loaded with recent horror stories about eightvape.

Here's is all of Jonny's posts from Eightvape on Reddit. They had credit card numbers stolen, orders mixups, not refunding, etc.
Well even though it sucks (for everyone) I'm glad I'm not alone in my eightvape hate.
My order was quite recent if that means anything at all. I wonder if it's new staff/changed hands/ maybe they don't care if they suck because they think they will go out of business WHO knows, but it is always a shame when a good vendor transforms itself into a vendor of the suck, etc.

I've never ordered from EightVape, but I sympathize with you guys. It's a hassle to get hacked.
A couple of years ago I shopped at Walmart and paid with my Visa card. When I got home I received a text message from Bank of America followed by a phone call to tell me that they had detected fraud on my BOA Visa card. Someone had charged a tank of gas for $35 in Atlanta (I'm in Macon) while I was on the way home from Walmart. They also made three $500 purchases online from Macy's. Once I denied making the charges BOA credited my card with all the fraud purchases, instructed me to cut up my card, and sent me a replacement card with a new number overnight by Fed Ex. I was impressed.
These days people can sit across the street and hack a wireless connection to a server. If Encryption isn't strong enough they can capture transaction data. I suppose the hackers that got my info were part of a theft ring in Atlanta since one of them filled up at a pump there using my CC number. They had to have had hardware in their vehicle that could create and program a hacked card to swipe at the gas pump. They obviously sent the data to a crony in Atlanta as soon as they hacked it.
Times are changing and electronic fraud has become very professional.

There are nifty little scanners that people carry in their pockets and/or discretely in their hand. All they have to do is walk close enough by someone, or stand in line by them, and it'll capture your CC info with no problem.
I've heard about those. I guess we all need wallets with metal grids woven into the inside.
Going to close this as we have a Negative Reviews Forum for things like this.
