Jacob sat down in front of his computer with same usual grin on his
face that was spawned from getting something for nothing. His grin was even
more so wider than usual with the fact that his newest achievement was free
access to some of the biggest porn sights that were supposedly "infallible"
at detecting fake credit card entries.
Today was going to be a good day for the young man. All he planned on
doing for the next 24 hours was plundering every site he scammed his way
into for each and every single picture that they held, only to then
immediately disappear into the animosity of the internet. "Happy day, happy
day.." he though to himself as he began his first login of the day.
Or so he though..
Almost immediately after logging into the first site, Jacob was
instantly dumped into an error page with a warning message about his account
could not be verified with the supposed bank company his "card" was issued
through.
"Damn." he though to himself, "They are good if they've already tried
to confirm that number. oh, well."
Jacob made a little mental note to look for some better card generator
"warez" programs the next time around as he moved onto the next site.
Again and again, the same errors were coming up from each and every
porn site he tried. That was, until the very last one he tried..
Everything looked and acted normally as Jacob cruised from page to
page, only stopping briefly to do a "save as" command over every single nude
woman picture there possibly was. He was as happy as a child in a candy
store over his newly found treasure trove of naughtiness and within the
hour, was the proud owner of over 200+ "liberated" pictures. As he began to
shut down his browser, Jacob just happened to notice the new mail symbol in
the bottom portion of his screen.
"The hell.?" he though to himself as he opened up his mail program and
downloaded the message. The shock on his face could have been clearly seen
a mile away as he read the "From" line: Porn Palace collection agency. Out
of idle curiosity, Jacob quickly scanned the letter.
"Thank you for choosing Porn Palace for all of your erotic needs. As
in agreement with the TOU statement, your account has been charged $5 US for
each picture downloaded through your account. Your Current account balance
outstanding is: $1490 US. However, we cannot verify your credit card to
the banking institution you supplied during signup, and so until payment is
made, your account will be frozen. If no effort for payment is made to our
company in 24 hours, collection procedures will be initiated."
Jacob let out a laugh after reading the letter. "Collect, from me??"
he laughed out lout into his empty apartment. As quickly as the letter had
arrived, it was deleted from the computer as Jacob decided to try and make a
fast buck reselling all the pictures he'd just pirated to his so call
"friends" and gloat about his accomplishment.
24 hours later..
A tired Jacob sat listless in front of his computer. Somehow, his IP
address had been passed around the net and every porn site he tried was
actively blocking him from entry. He could have sworn that he had masked
his address yesterday and thinking about it only frustrated him more. Then
he began to think about the letter from yesterday. Now that he was thinking
about it clearly, how could have the Porn Palace have sent it too him in the
first place? After all, Jacob has supplied completely bogus personal data
them and every other site he'd visited.
As he sat there, completely dejected, a knock on the door made him jump
out of his seat. Who could be knocking? He wasn't expecting anyone or
anything. With some hesitation, Jacob finally made up his mind to see who
it could have been.
