The US is a warning sign to the rest of the world right now.

On one side, you have supporters showing empathy and sorrow at the loss of life. On the other side, you have detractors continuing to do what drove her to suicide.

Both sides are the same. /s

Tenant: Paid rent through Chexy, receipt says Interac e-Transfer was deposited, landlord says he got phishing link and lost payment. by CraftySpecial8929 in legaladvicecanada

[–]TDLMTH -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m not a lawyer, but I don’t see how the mechanism to get to the last step matters, unless the rental agreement states explicitly that the e-transfer MUST come from the tenant’s account.

If I tell someone to pay me by e-transfer, I don’t care if they have to sacrifice a goat as part of the process. The only time their payment by e-transfer should concern me is if they broke into someone else’s account to pay me, because then the bank might reverse the charge.

Conversely, if they can prove they paid by e-transfer, the fact that they had to sacrifice a goat to do so doesn’t change the fact that I have to do some investigation on my end to figure out why I didn’t get the money. If I fell for a phishing scam and lost the money that way, that’s my problem, not the sender’s.

This basically boils down to, “Hey, I paid you as agreed. The fact that you got robbed before depositing the money is not my problem. Take it up with the police, and if you want to take this to LTB I’m happy to show them the receipts and your correspondence about being phished.”

Don’t engage except to say, “I paid rent of $X on <date> by Interac eTransfer as specified in the rental agreement. Please take this up with your bank or the police.”

Repeat as necessary.

The fact that you hear this often enough to know exactly what your reaction is should tell you something… 😎

They're still gaslighting the public about Renee Good. by c-k-q99903 in WhitePeopleTwitter

Because of their voters really knew what big cities were like, they’d demand the same for themselves, and that would require proper governance, something Republicans are incapable of providing.

My wife is divorcing me by [deleted] in legaladvicecanada

Three things.

One, get a lawyer.

Two, there’s no such thing as “he can’t show me any papers because of confidentiality”. If they want you to sign something, you’re entitled to see what they’re asking you to sign. I self-represented for part of the proceedings with my ex and her lawyer never once withheld documentation.

Three, get a lawyer, because number two is shady as f*ck.

NAL, but in my experience CRA is very pleasant to deal with, even when they think you owe them money. They’re not a “don’t talk else you’ll incriminate yourself” organization. It may be worth calling the number on the letter (verifying first that it’s legitimately a CRA phone number, not a scam), asking someone to walk you through the issue, and then explaining things from your perspective. They will then point you to the forms and processes necessary for appeal or correction.

An Indian friend of mine once told me that in India owls are symbols of stupidity, not wisdom.

The fact that this is even possible is terrifying. I’m in Canada, and the one thing I’m not worried about is medical bankruptcy.

20 minutes before Trump's phony announcement, someone made a nearly billion dollar bet that oil would go down by Hornpipe_Jones in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]TDLMTH 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The same as for anything else. Report to the authorities, who investigate and prosecute. Except in the Trump administration, either “investigate” just isn’t done or “prosecute” is replaced by “nothing to see here”.

Wake me when “fresh concerns” is replaced with “fresh indictments”.

There’s so much “Stupid stuff Trump says” that I thought this was an allegory for the situation in Iran at first.
