E-Gold

E-gold is my favorite online payment system.
Low fees, referral system, no chargebacks.

I don't remember which was first, Paypal or e-gold, but they have been around long enough for you to know that they're not going anywhere.

I should check which was first one of these days.

Anyway, if you use e-gold you must be careful and keep your computer free of Virus, Trojans, Keyloggers and use Mozillas Firefox.

Keep security levels inside your e-gold account high.
They have good security, but the bad guys always works hard.

If you use Microsoft Internet Explorer and e-gold you are at risk of experiencing what I did. There's a bug in MIE that lets the bad guys mirror e-gold and when you see one site there's actually 2.

I should try to explain this another day.
One thing you can take with you:

If you log into e-gold and it asks for Turing number after you have logged in and already entered Turing number once: DO NOT DO IT (unless you know you have asked for a change that requires you to enter a turingnumber)

If you do you authorize the changes made to your account that let's them transfer your money to another account.

E-gold has a no "No Chargeback" Policy.
Unfortunately this also cover obvious theft.
But if you hate refunds: There will be NONE.

If you should ever have funds stolen you need a subpoena or a courtorder to get anything done and I'm not sure how helpful it would be.

I have no idea how to get one as I live in Norway.
Go to the local police and tell them this and I suspect they would look very strangely at me and ask me to explain again.

If you have information about this for me. Tell me. :)

Yes, I still use e-gold daily.
