Disallow Social Engineering services

[Jimmy]

These services are immoral and unethical. Using or offering these is a "let me scam a big company bc I can!" kind of deal. Disallow social engineering!

I find this whole "Social Engineering" thing entirely to be disgusting, and toxic.
A bunch of children begging and lying to get garbage and money off other people is everything I don't want to see here on MCM or anywhere else.
Then there are those who capitalize off of it... It's just... ..

Sorry but what is 'Social Engineering'?

I dont do that stuff lel, I just want to be the ethical ones like more for making businesses better. I am guessing that is how to word it lol.
Definition: the application of sociological principles to specific social problems.

Its not only scamming companies it can be used in forms of persuasion and written messages.

But I honestly hate the SE to companies I know how it works and I don't like it one bit.[DOUBLEPOST=1469394821][/DOUBLEPOST]All disputes I do are for a reason, and I only help those who got scammed or were falsely disputed.[DOUBLEPOST=1469395028][/DOUBLEPOST]

In more internet/forum terms it is basically someone who can cheat out for a refund. Some people get full refunds by stating their item is broken but in reality it is not so they get to keep their money and item. It is all about lies and stuff which I do not support to scam a company it is also illegal and also has a chance for you to get caught.[DOUBLEPOST=1469395098][/DOUBLEPOST]

Its not "social engineering" in the general it is the "SE Scamming" that is what makes things terrible.

Honestly it should not be allowed, I had to do it once before because a monitor I bought was defective and had flaws that caused issues, outside of that I am against it. If you have to do it to get a valid refund to resolve an issue it should be ok, but just doing it for theft, that should be banned.

Complaining for a product that legitimately doesn't work is fine, social engineering is lying about it actually being broken.[DOUBLEPOST=1469430663][/DOUBLEPOST]

How can you really do this to paypal? I mean they're not stupid and there really aren't many flaws in their system.

It's not usually done to PayPal, more so Amazon and other services like it.

Wow wait, so on PayPal let's say someone paid you $100, they can ask a refund to PayPal because the item is not 'working'?

If the item is not working then they have a reason to dispute, if they are randomly saying it they are trying to scam lol

It should be excluded. It's just begging for problems should anything illegal happen. Accountability speaking. Plus it really delegitimizes MCM as a whole.
