All of the companies charged my credit card multiple times. I have never heard of these companies, much less, contacted, nor ordered any products or services from them. All phone numbers for these companies are answered by the same people on a customer service line and give me the same evasive answers regarding their products and refunding my money. I have never received any reimbursement for any of the charges. These are fraudulent charges. All phone numbers: 855-200-4402, 844- 618-5433, 888-996-6541 All charges from each company total $419.86. I have digital receipts from my bank for each transaction saved as proof, when needed.

Caller saying she represented Trans Union and that two of my credit cards had been compromised with fraud charges of $1,298 and $346. Read back to me my credit card numbers then asked for expiration dates. I gave one then realized it was a scam and hung up. Caller keeps calling back. Says name is Erica ******** I have called both credit card companies and reported this. They say they see no pending charges. Current cards were stopped and new ones being sent.

They called saying they were looking for "Elizabeth" and they were with some foundation. I hung up. They called again, to ask me if they have the wrong number, I said "yes." And they hung up.

Virmach started charging my credit card $10/month. I have never had anything to do with this company and my credit card company will not stop the ongoing charges. I looked up the company online as they do not have any contact information on my credit card statement. In order to dispute billing, they require that you create an account (with personal information) and log in. I found many many warnings about this company online, but they seem to be able to do "business" unfettered. The first charge was applied to my account when I was out of town. There is no way of contacting them to make them stop!

They pretended to be zelle via email. And rapid fire texts designed to fluster someone into sending them overpayment. I have the emails and messenger messages.

Advertising a greenhouse from “Harborfreight”, but when you order with your card info, they say that you need to use another card! Just scamming for credit card info I think. My dumb self attempted twice, figured it out, then locked my 2 card accounts. This is a scam!!!!

I received 4 texts from NAVYFED stating that they changed my email address. The last text requested that I contact them if it was not authorized. Navy Fed is a legitimate bank however I tried to text back informing them the they had the wrong phone number. The text could not be sent because it was not a phone with text capabilities. Did a phone number look up and and this number is a scammer. I intend to block this number, however , would like you to know about this in cast=e it happens to someone else. Thanks

My bank account checking was debited $97 by "PSV*STRATEGICFORTUNE with a phone number only. When I contacted them by phone they said that I must accept a $100 gift certificate for shopping in order to be able to file a claim for return of the $97 with no ability to stop this transaction now or in the future.

I called my bank's toll free number by looking at the number on the back of the card (which was kinda rubbed off - I dialed their number except with the end as 0805 instead of 8805). It gave me no options except to speak to their rewards dept. Big spiel about how I was lucky number 56 to call today and they were giving me a $100 gift card. I just had to pay $2.75 cents for shipping which was required by the United States PO. I gave him my name, address, and phone number, but when he asked for a credit card number, I said NO. He said, "Why, you called me, I didn't call you." I said I didn't want their gift card and to transfer me to the bank. Instead he hung up on me. I found a local number to my bank (very difficult to do, but luckily I had a business card from them). They helped me figure out that I dialed the wrong number. A scammer was waiting for a wrong number for the bank and was ready to phish info and credit card information from me. Really really creepy.

My computer was frozen, said I needed to contact micro soft because my computer had been hacked and my info compromised. contacted the number above and they asked me if I recognized any of the banks or websites they had listed, I said one. They told me to contact them, wich was done and the supposed Chase rep. said my acct had been hacked 3 seperate times in 5 min. to the tune of 24 grand, 8K each, he said he was able to stop 2 of them but the third went through because they were to close together. I needed to get secured gift cards to apply to the acct to rid the 8K, then they would issue a new card with the credit on it. I did so, because they said is a charge of child porn,to Porn Hub, I certainly did not want that kind of charge on my card. Said it came in from the Check Republic. When I re contacted Chase they said they had no record of any of that, but the first person had all my security questions and info. Wht are Chase and micro soft at least partially responsible for keeping my info safe. Twoo names given to me were Cathy White micro soft, Harry Hunt Chase. Very gut wrenching, I dont have 8K to give up to somebody who dosent want to work for a living!

Call begins with a recording that they are calling about your credit car there’s no problem but they have an opportunity for you to reduce your interest-rate to as low as 0% and no higher than 6% press nine to speak with an operator. The live operator it has a very heavy accent and tries to get you to disclose your balances and then asked for additional information. He claims to have access to all of your information already but needs you to verify it. He wants to know your balance on your MasterCard or Visa And which card you use the most. I asked him repeatedly how he is able to reduce my interest-rate, and what he would be doing and asking me for. He said that he has a very good relationship with all the major banks and he is able to negotiate a lower interest rate and has all my information from Equifax. When I declined to give information and thank him for calling and asked them to remove my name from the list, and hung up, he called back. He asked what was wrong and I really iterated that I was not interested in that [censored] that he remove my name from the list, andhe responded with a string of vulgar swears and called back several times in different numbers. I blocked each one on my cell phone.

A male calls my cell phone and says that he sees that I have a visa and mastercard that I am paying more than 10% interest and asks if I want to lower my interest rate. He then "needs" to verify my credit card information. This comes from a local number and of course when you call the number it doesn't work. I asked him for a call back number to contact him and he gave me an 800 number that doesn't work (800-847-2911) The local number that comes up on my caller ID is 907-830-87207. I ask him why the numbers don't work and he keeps saying her can help lower my interest rate. When I keep asking why the number doesn't work he says they are only "outgoing" numbers. When I ask him how he got my phone number he keeps asking if i want to lower my rate. I told him to take me off his "call" list and then he hangs up. Before these people called me and when I called the local cell number that came up on my caller ID a female answered and said that she had no idea how I got her number and that she is a local lady in my area code (907) and says no male is there. *** BEWARE: they ask for your credit card info "so they can verify your cards before they can look at lowering your rates" ***
