Hillary Clinton’s campaign is stealing from her poorest supporters by purposefully and repeatedly overcharging them after they make what’s supposed to be a one-time small donation through her official campaign website, multiple sources tell the Observer.
The overcharges are occurring so often that the fraud department at one of the nation’s biggest banks receives up to 100 phone calls a day from Clinton’s small donors asking for refunds for unauthorized charges to their bankcards made by Clinton’s campaign. One elderly Clinton donor, who has been a victim of this fraud scheme, has filed a complaint with her state’s attorney general and a representative from the office told her that they had forwarded her case to the Federal Election Commission.
“We get up to a hundred calls a day from Hillary’s low-income supporters complaining about multiple unauthorized charges,” a source, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of job security, from the Wells Fargo fraud department told the Observer. The source claims that the Clinton campaign has been pulling this stunt since Spring of this year. The Hillary for America campaign will overcharge small donors by repeatedly charging small amounts such as $20 to the bankcards of donors who made a one-time donation. However, the Clinton campaign strategically doesn’t overcharge these donors $100 or more because the bank would then be obligated to investigate the fraud.
The fraud specialist said that Clinton donors who call in will attempt to resolve the issue with the campaign first but they never get anywhere. “They will call the Clinton campaign to get their refund and the issue never gets resolved. So they call us and we just issue the refund. The Clinton campaign knows these charges are small potatoes and that we’ll just refund the money back.”
The source said that pornography companies often deploy a similar arrangement pull. “We see this same scheme with a lot of seedy porn companies,” the source said. The source also notes that the dozens of phone calls his department receives daily are from people who notice the fraudulent charges on their statements. “The people who call us are just the ones who catch the fraudulent charges. I can’t imagine how many more people are getting overcharged by Hillary’s campaign and they have no idea.”
This Is What The Democrats Did Immediately After Realizing They Were Hacked
Having been 'compromised' - by sophisticated Russian hackers (likely working in cahoots with Trump) according to the mainstream media's spoonfed narrative - the Democratic National Committee decdided the smart thing would be to send the new password for their system, via email, to all regional press... Brilliant!

This man won $30,000 on ‘Wheel of Fortune’ — here’s how much he got to keep
As the most popular syndicated show on TV, with tens of millions of viewers everyday, competition to get on “Wheel of Fortune” is fierce: Millions of people apply to get on the game show every year. Of those, according to the show’s website, only 10,000 are selected to audition. Out of that pool, a mere 600 end up on the show, and of those, just 200 make it to the final round. Matt McMahan was one of them.
If getting on the show is hard, winning is harder still — requiring not just puzzle-solving acumen and the ability to think on one’s feet, but also strategy and luck. Making big bucks on the show is extremely difficult. McMahan won more than $30,000. That buys a lot of vowels.
While McMahan and his partner, Adam Hart, were regular Wheel viewers, he never gave serious thought to competing. One day, however, the two caught a “Teacher’s Week” rerun—a themed episode where all the players are teachers. While McMahan worked as an actor for several years — including in the most recent revival of Les Misérables — he currently teaches second grade in the Bronx as part of Teach for America. When Wheel announced it was seeking contestants for another Teacher’s Week, Hart urged him to apply.
“I knew he would get on if he tried,” Hart said. “He’s enthusiastic about teaching, he works in a low-income school, he’s gorgeous, and he’s been on Broadway. TV would love him.”
Yahoo is getting ready to confirm a historic hack affecting 200 million users
Yahoo is getting ready to confirm a huge, historic hack affecting 200 million users, Recode reports.
Back in August, Motherboard's Joseph Cox reported that 200 million apparent Yahoo user credentials were being sold on the dark web. At the time, the company's response was only that it was "aware of [the] claim."
But now Kara Swisher, one of the tech industry's most respected journalists, is reporting for Recode that Yahoo sources tell her the company is preparing to publicly confirm the hack. (Her sources did not confirm its exact size, only that it was "widespread and serious.")
Yahoo did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.
Motherboard was told by the hacker who held the data (and was selling it for 3 bitcoins, worth $1,860 at the time) that the breach was carried out in 2012 — and was never made public. Data included usernames, encrypted passwords, date-of-births, and some email addresses.
