<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AussieCollector, post: 3590959, member: 81093&quot;]Thought I&#039;d share this interesting interaction.</p><p><br /></p><p>I tried to pay for my recent win at auction last night, but was a bit stumped that I got no confirmation for my payment. So I logged in online and checked to see that there was a pending transaction there, so I guessed all was good.</p><p><br /></p><p>But when I checked online again this morning, it was gone completely.</p><p><br /></p><p>I then called up my bank to inquire as to what was going on. They then transferred me to the fraud team.</p><p><br /></p><p>After many questions about my identity, they then said &quot;Yea, look mate, we&#039;re going to have to have a conversation about what you&#039;re trying to purchase here&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>I explained I was purchasing a coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>They then said &quot;Yea, so this is the problem mate. Is this like a bit-coin or some sort of other cryptocurrency or something?&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>To which I explained &quot;no, it&#039;s an ancient Greek coin.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Them: &quot;.....oh. So... like a physical coin?&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Me: &quot;Yes. An actual physical ancient coin.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Them: &quot;Sorry, all fixed. It&#039;ll go through now&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Ahhh, the trials and tribulations of a collector <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie12" alt="o_O" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
