> Most banks let the user block receiving payments from specific accounts. How do you stop harassers sending unwanted money?
First time I read about that, how does this work in practice? A person regularly sends you small amounts such that all you see is their name whenever you log into your bank account?
Amongst other things it's a way to set up a narrative regarding some other fraudulent activity.
If you were regularly recieving money from someone, then it looks like you're in business with them - and you'd have a hard time pricing you're not if they then staged some other activities (i.e. shipping you stolen goods, which they then have stolen from your doorstep by an associate).
