Default Hypothetical Question.

So...hypothetically.

What if someone had a...debit card and they wanted to purchase something online. So...they used this hypothetical debit card but had to have a U.S address and that person hypothetically knows a U.S address which they used while not actually being a U.S citizen, living in the U.S, ever lived at that location nor is the debit card a U.S one.

Could any...problems arise?

Its also worth mentioning that hypothetically there was a 99% chance of the person's purchase going through. Because it totally happened.

other than your purchase being sent to the US? doubt there'd be any problems.

You could always hypothetically send it to a friend/onrpg'er in the U.S. who could, hypothetically, send it to you if you live outside of the U.S.A..

This is just a hypothetical solution, though.

What if the hypothetical U.S citizen hypothetically steals the hypothetical package for his own hypothetical pleasure?

Wait a second, I think hes saying he has an address, and hes wondering if he uses a card from outside the US to ship to this "hypothetical address", if it would cause problems.

I get it now.

No, I highly doubt it. They don't care where the money is coming from. If the policy is that you need a USA address, and you have one, they won't care if the card isn't from the US IMO.

He's saying he does not live in the U.S, he's not a U.S citizen, he has never lived in the U.S and this address is a random one.
I'm sure.
Hypothetically.

Shadow pretty much answered it from first reply : 3

But for the hypothetical ponderings.

Hypothetically someone (Dunno who this he is that everyone's mentioning) probably hadn't ever lived in the U.S though they did spend a day or so at the said address because a hypothetical relative lived at that address for some time. Which hypothetically could be an institute of higher education which has its address on the web page...hypothetically.

Also hypothetically the purchased...product isn't neccessarliy physical in form. Hypothetically also someone might be to cheap to pay for shipping as well on certain items...

Hypothetically someone wants to get COD Black Ops (*Flame shield on*) and would hypothetically like to know if anyone lives in Florida for aforementioned method of hypothetical product purchasing.
