RE: Paying with BTC makes a lot of sense!

  1. No. Stolen cards wont work, they may delay the process for you, but since you will only pay if you received your stuff there is no risk for you.

  2. It works in certain countries, UK i think is one of them. You can check their website which counties are supported

    Thanks for your response.

    As for 1. I found this reddit comment which I can obviously neither confirm or reject: "This happened a long time ago, and some people got raided by police in I think Germany or something for using purse. Scammers were using stolen credit cards to purchase the items and the police traced the products to the purse user's residence. Since then I have not heard of many similar reports, so hopefully they have improved things."

    As for 2, I found:

    "While browsing or searching on Purse, you will find items from Amazon.com. [...] We also offer limited support for Amazon.co.uk , Amazon.ca, Amazon.co.jp. "

    I have so far been using amazon.de the most, but I guess I will consider my options when making my next order and check .co.k

      I would think this must have been quite the edge case. I have had orders cancelled from what were obvious scams and a few occasions where purse had to step in.

      Nothing bad ever happened except the loss of time of course.
