Greenpoint seeds!!

Man, I don’t think I can follow this thread any further. Too much drama.

I feel like all this agro towards Gu is a bit much. Whenever you buy seeds you still just don’t know.

With that being said, this extreme hatred towards somebody at a business point is insane.

You bought something from someone you didn’t really know (except for a few).

I have a close friend who grows in a med and rec state and he agreed that some strains are more finicky than others. Did this dude deny Gu? No.

For those of you super angry, I’m going to ask for you to not be involved. This thread should go back to Gu. You bought S1’s and shit didn’t work. Surprise, surprise. Less hate and more understanding is a better way to address it.

What’s up with payofix? Multiple people have had their card information stolen, and it’s very likely through your CC processor.

He should have addressed us by now. It is only making matters worse now by not speaking out.

For me, I use cash for everything. I have had my card number stolen from using my card on Amazon and so I got rid of them all except for one and I only use it in person. Besides that, I use crypto.

Wait, are you trying to obfuscate what could be a significant problem with how GPS, specifically, is handling CC transactions?

Are you in charge of the website? If so, how do you handle a CC order entry and at what point is that information transmitted to your selected transaction processor?

Nope. I was merely adding to the fact that I am not qualified to answer those questions.

View attachment 4136587 Was everyone else's Pure Rasberry Kush label different then the rest of their CV gear? I picked that one up from the 420 sale and the PRK is written in red ink and not black like the other packs of assorted strains. It has me wondering if these are maybe older/newer seeds.

Hello all,

This is my first post on this forum. I felt obligated after reading some of the CC issues at GPS to let other GPS customers know that my CC was also compromised. It is very possible that this occurred as the result of paying for purchases at GPS.

I have around eight orders from GPS that were made in March. Seven of these orders were made using a CC. Within 24 hours of the seventh order, there were two attempts to make fraudulent purchases at an Apple store. Fraud monitoring was able to block the second attempt and subsequently cancel my card number. Needless to say, the eighth and subsequent purchase were via money order.

I rarely have had issues with CC fraud. I could not definitively say that it was due to the purchases at GPS that allowed the CC information to leak and, as such, I did not pursue it at the time. However, after reading that others were having similar issues recently, it seems very likely that something in the CC transaction process at GPS is leaking information.

I recently followed up on my experience by emailing Gu and suggesting that they may be having some security issues surrounding their transaction processor. I did receive an email back a couple of days later from their web person who, unfortunately, took the stance of what amounts to "it's not their problem". This type of response is rather unusual and, hence, I am posting my experience here. I have followed up on that email but, after several days, have yet to receive further response.

Whatever the case may be, I would suggest avoiding the use of a CC when ordering from GPS, if possible. At least until there is some positive action on the part of GPS. Most certainly do not utilize a debit/CC linked card. If you insist in using a CC perhaps consider obtaining a re-loadable/temporary CC card.

I too have purchased some S1's. But, that's another topic.

I feel like you're obfuscating what I'm trying to say here. I hear what you are saying, but I cannot and will not speak on matters concerning GPS that I am not in a position to. I can share some technical information with you about processors though

Like I have said many times, Gu will aswer your questions soon.

I can tell you that I have never worked for a company who stored their customers credit card information. And GPS is no different.

It is all handled through the processor and their API. No actual card information (except for account stuff like your email and address) is ever stored on the website and is not accessible by anyone at the website.

When there is an issue or any credit card authorization stuff, the customer is always forwarded to the processor themselves.

That's standard. No credit card information is ever "handed" to anyone. The processor uses an API to allow the customer's to pay without having to forward you to another website for payment. In the case an API is not used (like on old Shopify setups and/or PayPal payments), then you are in fact forwarded to the processor's site to make your payment (from which you are then returned to the original site where you are usually presented with a "Thank You" page).

So the payment information is not ever actually processed through the store's server, it is done externally and utilizes the API to prevent the customer from having to go back and forth.

The HTTPS is an added layer of security that protects you even further. Which is why most places that process payments must have an updates SSL certificate to allow API integrations that process payments through the gateway.

Hope that helps.

Its surely a difficult time right now to be picky or selective with off shore card processors for this line of business.

Both my packs were 6 each. If you guys got 11 that is totally fucked up. Fuck gu, fuck GPS and fuck these seeds. I've had it

Then why even say anything openly about it. Its like those passive aggressive posts on FB that say "ugg so fucking tired of this" and the second someone asked they say "don't wanna talk about it."

He could've just pm'd the people he wanted to share it with and left it at that.

*shrugs* IDGAF either way. This whole thread has turned into drama central...mostly from people who haven't even bought seeds.

I'm out. I'll be back when the bud porn shows up.

Go with his Wild West Series. Don’t jump on the train of what’s trending. If I were to do that, I might get shit every time. Some folks act like this their first grow, if it didn’t work put great then there is a shit storm towards person.

If you backed Gu and were upset by results that came from a different idea, I understand. But if you bought Gu’s stuff and it worked well but “his” newer stuff didn’t, he is probably trying to expand and incorporate other folks and/or businesses with himself. Since it has been openly discussed about where he got some (hopefully not all) S1s that he was carrying that we can all buck up, accept the lose and get on with ourselves.

As a grower and not as much I would like, I hope everyone yields well and has good day in life.
