The strike back technique is basically closing all of your accounts preemptively when you&#8217;re in hot water and it doesn&#8217;t look like you&#8217;re getting out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This advice is probably timely (again) because we&#8217;ve seen sporadic reports of fitness club related shutdowns at American Express for the last couple of months, and a new pattern seems to have emerged based on those shutdowns: If you&#8217;ve ever been suspended by American Express over  chargebacks after you got ripped to shredz, you&#8217;re likely going to be shutdown soon. This applies even if you&#8217;ve been unsuspended for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The takeaway? If you know what I&#8217;m talking about and you&#8217;ve been suspended at AmEx, It&#8217;s time to reevaluate your risk profile. If you don&#8217;t know what I&#8217;m talking about, just take this as another MEAB cryptic post that &#8220;don&#8217;t nobody can understand&#8221; and have a nice Tuesday!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-editorskit-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/shredz-1024x575.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9263\" style=\"width:420px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/shredz-1024x575.webp 1024w, https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/shredz-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/shredz-768x431.webp 768w, https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/shredz-1320x742.webp 1320w, https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/shredz.webp 1522w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:14px\">Pictured: Ripped to shredz.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve talked about avoiding a potential banking shutdown with the Sneak Attack Strike Back technique in the past.
