@henrypirfa@henrypirfa You’ve stated there’s no evidence for God, but that’s just a defense. What is your positive case or logical proof that absolute non-existence is the reality?
@javiasilis 100%. Return URL is a trap. I black-box debugged this as the buyer lol 🥲.
1. Vendor claimed non-receipt.
2. Gateway confirmed settlement but failed notification, proving a dropped webhook.
3. My "logs" were Session/transaction IDs used to force a trace.
Just spent 3 months tracing a "Ghost Order." Money left the bank, merchant saw nothing.
The culprit? Client-Side Trust.
The UI showed "Success" based on a redirect URL param (?status=success), but the backend Webhook failed.
A🧵 on why "Optimistic UI" in payments is dangerous.
