even if the fed has a list of nzb files you've downloaded from newzbin, they still can't pin you for copyright infrigement because all you have is a file that says where the files are. They have no proof that you have the files.Originally Posted by Fromagepas
It's like you've downloaded a torrent file, which is really useless until all the files have been downloaded by your bt client.
How to Pay
Newzbin are able to accept most standard credit and debit cards, with the current notable exceptions of American Express and Discover (we'll look into these in the future), and some of the virtual 'one-time-use' cards issued by PayPal and some banks. You can try using those cards, but if they don't work, sorry.
Credit cards generally have a start date and expiry date, but no issue number. Leave the issue number blank for these cards.
Debit cards generally have a start date and issue number, but no expiry date. Leave the expiry date as MM/YYYY (the default) if you do not have an expiry date. You must enter the issue number.
The CVV / CSC number is required for all cards. If your card does not have one, we cannot currently accept it for security reasons. Information about where to find the CVV / CSC number can be found at http://www.freemerchant.com/info/cvvinfo/cvv.html (external link, not operated by Newzbin).
Security
Newzbin uses a certified SSL key to encrypt communications between you and our site. Ensure that the URL starts https://www.newzbin.com when you are making a payment. If you are using an insecure URL when you start to make a payment, you will be automatically changed to a secure one. (you can also use https for browsing the entire site, not just payments)
None of your card details are stored on our systems, at all, ever. They are not written to disk, even in a temporary file; they are only stored in memory for the amount of time it takes to get a response from the bank (saying accepted or declined).
This process happens on a machine that is not directly connected to the Internet; it uses a secure proxy (owned and operated by us, on the Newzbin network) to get a route to the processing bank. No other machine outside the Newzbin network has any way to open a connection back to this machine.
The only place you should enter your card details is on the secure card processing form. The URL to this form is 'https://www.newzbin.com/secure/card/*transaction_id*' where transaction_id is a unique reference for every payment.
Verify that the URL looks like this when you are making a payment.
The transaction_id will always be of the form 1140462791-882559-46904 (3 numbers, separated by hyphens).
NEVER type your card number into an email or private message to anyone on the Newzbin site, even if they ask you to!
Genuine Newzbin staff will never ask you for these details.
