Actually, MOST (...maybe even ALL) upfront fee "listing services" collect their money via credit card payment. I believe these parasites figure that they can string the "mark" along until at least passing the allowable time period for a successful credit card dispute.

PostCard Companies (PCC's), on the other hand, operate a bit differently (although they too collect their exorbitant fees "upfront"). The PCC parasites generally want payment by check, presented to them by hand right at the time of their "meeting" with the "mark". This way, the PCC can make sure the check gets cashed very promptly (...hopefully before the "mark" smartens up after-the-fact and stops payment on the check).
