    A chargeback should not be allowed after 60 days but the banks break their own rules all the time.
    In cases of fraud they do whatever they want.
    Its theft.
    The merchant takes the loss and writes it off as cost of goods sold. You cant even insure against it as its not a capital loss like stolen money. Nor can you claim a loss of profit.

    I have had cashiers checks bounce. Now I take them to the originating bank and cash them before delivering the goods.
    I dont deposit them, I learned the hard way.

    Mail order of high value goods has risk. Once in awhile you get f'cked. I just hate it.

    Quoted from TimO:

    The chargeback deadline is 120 days. All a merchant can do is exercise due diligence. I process about 20,000 online credit card sales a year and only suffer about a dozen chargebacks. On orders over $500, I make sure there is an online record somewhere (usually whitepages.com) that matches the buyer to their shipping address.

    I took a $7000 loss a few years ago, never again... cashiers check only for large purchases.
    I offer discounts for cash now and raised my prices a little to help cover losses, but it really sucks out there.

    Quoted from gweempose:

    I doubt it was the thieves that initiated the backcharge. Most likely what happened is the person whose identity was stolen finally realized it and disputed the charge.

    My thinking was that is was a card stolen from a senior citizen at a rest home. They dont use them for years and it took 2 months to see the bills pile up.
