Testing McCain and Obama web sites – credit card fraud: Update
Much thanks to good enterprise journalism from Conservative247. With updates, they tested both the McCain and Obama websites and found their credit card contributions were rejected by the McCain campaign but accepted by the Obama campaign … even though the card address on the contribution did not match the billing address.
Got an e-mail from the Obama campaign with a thank you note. Guess that car magnet will get “lost in the mail” since the address does not exist. After more than an hour, no e-mail from McCain campaign.
As we noted just below … this has been now tested all over the country and would allow donors to exceed contribution limits simply by submitting hundreds of donations with different names. Again, where is the justice department.
