    Marketing as loans but really giving MCAs? Like a bait and switch?

    I've actually met with Jon Braun and spent time in his office a few years ago (he was wearing an ankle bracelet and tried to hide it by wearing gigantic cowboy boots). It didn't seem like a bait and switch as I overheard a bunch of his "closing calls" to merchants. Standard MCA call. I don't think that they sourced any of their deals by marketing to merchants.

    How did they source them? Via the backdoor??

    It went something like this:

    Me: What source do your deals come from? ISO's?

    Him: F*ck ISO's! They're a bunch of f*cking scumbags.
