"No one who works here at CapitalOne would ever tip this much so we just wanted to double-check you were of sound mind when you did this! :)"
This seems… reasonable..? They’re not telling you not to do this. It’s a safety measure in case 1. You either fat finger the tip screen and don’t realize it or 2. You write a $5 tip on your receipt and the waiter rings it up for $50. It probably triggers after 25 or 30% on a tip. Who cares?
I don’t really get a lot of people on this website. This is just a good faith, consumer friendly security check email and people will still read it and find a way to feel morally superior about it
A friend of mine got fucked by a local pizza place after the waitress changed a tip by adding a comma and a few zeros.
Pizza place refused to refund, credit card company wouldn't cancel the transaction because it was too large. We had to start a social media campaign to shame the place into refunding him. They turned a $15 tip into a $1,500 tip.
So I definitely appreciate stuff like this
What credit card company? That seems like such blatant fraud.
Once my friend put total in place of tips. He was very drunk that day. He went over next day to talk to them and they obviously fixed it. That seems like common sense to me.
