I have the same feeling. With only 300 bucks we can make this guy lose 10K :D

( $10.000 / ( 0.3 + ( 0.029 * 0.01$ ) ) * 0.01 = $333,01

We would need a javascript script that would make 33301 payments of 1 cent.

This would be a very cost efficient attack between business rivals.

Looks like he bills you at the end of the day.

Perhaps if you spent less than 33 cents he won't...
