Credit Card Scam

I uncovered an awesome credit card scam that works like this: - get stolen credit card numbers - list expensive merchandise in a 3rd party online store - wait for an order to be placed - get payment from customer through PayPal - order merchandise from the manufacturer or another vendor using the stolen credit card info and have it shipped to the customer Voila! Except the IP address when placing the order nothing ties you directly back to the fraud. The customer is the only entity who can tie it all together. I was the customer and figured it all out. Unfortunately VISA doesn't care and refused to investigate!

AMG-SIU suing HMS

Apparently AMG-SIU is suing HMS because the former owners think that they got ripped-off on the contingency based part of the acquisition. Karma is a bitch. By the way, I still own the intellectual property rights on many parts of the system that AMG-SIU sold to HMS and I haven't received a single cent.

HMS didn't like the fact that I own the copyright / intellectual property rights of AMG-SIU's core software.
They thought they bought all rights when they acquired AMG-SIU.
However, AMG-SIU never owned the copyright.
I wrote a lot of the code that is the foundation of AMG-SIU's core software while I was an independent contractor.

Several of my coworkers from AMG-SIU got depositioned by Kern's lawyers. I wonder where this will go?
