+--- Thread: [Rule] Drop Shipping (/showthread.php?tid=4082639)
Drop Shipping - Omniscient - Feb 25, 2014
This has become a more recent issue with a few ebooks but before it becomes more widespread I've added this wording to the Disallowed Blackhat Activity.
Quote:Guides, threads, and services related to drop shipping will not be allowed on HF.
Thank you.

But...drop shipping can be a completely legitimate source of income, aka 100 percent white hat.

I'm glad to see you taking a stance against all the fraud popping up lately.
Keep up the good work.

If it's legitimate purchases...you have no reason to drop ship. It's that simple.

Glad this is in place, seen quite a few eBooks on Drop Shipping.

I agree with Evan2one7. If done correctly it could be legitimate. All the same it could be just as illegitimate.

I don't see how this is a problem, drop shopping is done commonly for ease of selling on eBay.

Even though dropshipping isn't illegal, I don't it should be sold because it a completely public method.

I'm not quite sure that you understand what drop shipping is. Or we are talking about two different things?
I find this to be the equivalent to banning bitcoin guides, threads, services, because it can also be used illegally (laundering, illegal purchaces, etc.).

This does not have any effect on me, but I am not sure why it would be disallowed?

Also done to commit fraud too.
Realistically the topic is easy enough to join a legitimate drop shipping service and no guide should even be required. It's like selling a guide to join Paypal. Now if the guide is about how to setup a FAKE paypal account and use phony info and VCC's then you're talking about FRAUD. Which is what these ebooks on Drop Shipping are really discussing. Otherwise there is no ebook.

It's usually used when someone needs to obtain items that they haven't 'purchased' so to speak.

Isn't drop shipping where you buy stuff and have it sent to a random address that no one lives at?
