New name for illegal 'drop shippers'

There has been a lot of talk about this particular issue. Heck, there was even an article for it. However, it has been explained before that actual 'Drop Shipping' is a legimate practice used by companies such as Wal-Mart and Amazon when you order something online. It is only when you have individuals using stolen credit cards things get illegal. I have read complaints from some members about using the term 'drop shipper' for these illegal practices when the truth is actual 'drop shipping' is legal.

So I am proposing that we put our heads together and come up with a name that befits the crooks that use the legal practice of 'drop shipping' for their own illegal purposes and avoid any further confusion or upset.

Well, the best I could come up with is a "Fraud Shipper".

Maybe you guys can come up with something more fitting?

Drop Scoundrels.

 

 

 

Because this century hasn't seen enough fair use of the word scoundrel.

 

 

That or Ship Scamps.

Ooo, I do like the sound of scoundrel. Heh heh, it does sort of roll off the tongue. :shifty: Scoundrel! Heck, I even like typing it! ^_^

Added both to the poll for consideration.

the term drop shipping doesn't always refer to a scam. A new name is definitely in order.

Precisely why such a topic and poll was brought about in the first place. I might just leave this pinned for future reference so everyone is on the same page.
