Yup. I encountered one at a Boston Bruins game at TD Garden recently, after discovering I couldn’t buy a beer with cash. Cash goes in, prepaid debit card comes out. Surprisingly, it didn’t cost anything to load the cash - the same amount I put in ended up on the card. I did have to enter some PII to satisfy our bullshit KYC regs.
These dudes have legit balls of steel. The shit they do in their videos is just nuts and I will not be surprised if it ends up killing one or both of them. Which I think they are aware of and ok with.
Ah right… For some reason I thought it had to do with a video he did together with Boy Boy? Or maybe I’m just confusing things.
Maybe he just did the casino video with them after the firebombing and my brain combined the two events.
All three of them have balls of steel. They attempted murder on this guy and then he just keeps doing like intense investigative journalism. We need more people like them.
Huh, I’ve never heard of a prepaid card, I don’t think that’s a thing here. Can you just get one of those from a machine without any identification or anything?
I mean I’d keep the $300 and use my CC to get the beers. Most stadiums also have cash to card ATMs if you absolutely don’t have any card with you
There are cash to card ATMs now? Bizarro World.

Crazy, be pretty handy for laundering
I think people do similar stuff at casinos for this purpose
Yeah In Australia it’s super common even at pubs etc.
Boy boy did a great video on it

Didn’t his house get firebombed for this one?

The one where they go to North Korea was amazing.
Friendly Jordies was firebombed for putting out something out on soem crime family and crime in politics.
I think it was unrelated to this video as this came out 3 months or so after the attack.
But certainly their videos cause a stir. It’s like actual journalism.
Boyboy actually sailed to Cuba to deliver aid when America was destroying all the boats

You’ve been able to make cash deposits at regular ATMs for like at least 15 years at this point.
How is a cash to card atm gonna help if you don’t have your card? Don’t you still need it to top up and pay with the card?
You get a prepaid card from the ATM. I assume that charge some commission, I’ve never used it
