I've spent a lot of energy looking for ethical software & web services, but where I am really lacking is the most critical part: finding ethical *payment* solutions for my own biz. The vast majority of my clients use #PayPal or Venmo (both owned by the same arguably evil folks), or by Visa/MC processed by Squareup. The initial promise of #crypto for easy payments seems to have gotten lost to just speculation. What are some #ethicalalternatives that people are actually likely to use? #banking

Le phishing n’a rien à voir avec ce qu’il était il y a encore quelques années. Les e-mails sont désormais bien écrits, sans faute, avec un expéditeur qui semble légitime. Plus que jamais, il est important d’être prudent et de procéder à des vérifications au risque de voir votre argent s’envoler.
⚠️ Soyez prudent 🛡️

Can you use someone else's mail address for PayPal payments without any kind of confirmation?
Because one address I'm not using PayPal with got an invoice of a purchase to COINBASE CORPORATION.

Wrote this up on discord initially and thought it would be nice to share it here. Spread it around however you like/wish.
Markdown formatted post on my aethy @Beebz
My basic template for the payment processor calls
[TEXT] is placeholder for your situation
(Te/xt) Is interchangeable words
**Basic Intro:**
>Hello, my name is [NAME] and I have a (CONCERN/COMPLAINT/ISSUE) with [COMPANY] regarding your policies on (limiting transactions based on the content of goods and services / globally dictating what adults can buy with their own money / restricting independent creators from being able to sustain a living)
**Jumping off points:**
*As an artist*
>I am a creator who has been impacted by enforcements [COMPANY] has been pushing onto my storefronts (which does not break the law/ that has limited my ability to make a living / making me a casualty of [COMPANY] applying morality to independent purchases)
*As a buyer*
>I'm a consumer who, because of [COMPANY]'s action against a store I use, this has forced the store to deny me access to products I have already purchased. This is really (upsetting/ frustrating/ infuriating) because (well,I paid for them/ nothing was even illegal there/ [COMPANY] shouldnt have the right to dictate what I buy if its not against the law)
*As a cardholder*
>I am concerned about the message [COMPANY] is sending about deciding what I am allowed to spend money on. Your company claims to only limit transactions that lead to harm yet (you have censored stories of people who are survivors of horrendous events / you have taken action against marginalized independent creators for making lgbtq content / there is no such thing as one international law because there are globally conflicting ones and as an American based company, there are no law being broken thanks to freedom of speech.
**Things of Note:**
- They will ask for your name to put a complaint on file. Up to you
- They will ask if you have an account with them.
If yes, you can say you dont want to share it because of fear of retaliation, with visa, they can ask for first 6 digits
If no, you can just say you dont use it
- they might give a corpo speech, just let them get through it

Das mit #PayPal kann mir nicht passieren, nutze das nicht
• Auf dem Onlineportal "Kleinanzeigen“ boomt der Betrug mit Fake-E-Mails. Die Täter haben es auf Paypalkonten ihrer Opfer abgesehen.

Sind eigentlich inzwischen irgendwelche brauchbaren Alternativen zu #PayPal in Sichtweite?
