Oh god Steve,
Just a nightmare man. A group of people over there work for a call center.
They were making substantial orders through us for about 2-3 months. I thought they were just reselling and I know it's hard to make a living out there so I went with it, threw in tons of extras and all that jazz.
Turns out all the credit cards started being reported as stolen. The database on the commerce side never shown the credit card names and info due to the high security I was keeping ironically enough and they all started getting refunded. Combined orders reaching past $15,000, so to put it plainly, product & money, just gone.
To make things even worse, Our credit card processor from First Data, cut us off and claimed us irresponsible. Then put us on a blacklist. Which shut us down and made it very difficult to find another processor that would accept IKV. 2 months it took to find one. By that time I just purchased our first house. By the end the total damage was $30,000+ and Ikenvape went negative in all bank accounts. A vendor lent me $5,000 to get restarted so we been building off of that since just reopening a few weeks ago. People are kind of angry because of the shortage of stock as are vendors but we're re-building finally.
