I hope I don't get in trouble for this. I buy a lot of stuff on Ebay and other sites
for my boat.
Credit card statement shows billing from ROYAL TOOTHBRUSHES $28.00.
I checked into this and found I got sc_ _ _ _ d.
When I googled this site I found 2 site below asking about the phone #.
Go to it and read the comments,alot of people are finding the samething on there CC. The reason I posted this is because its easy to overlook.
If I broke some rule about posting this Im sorry but I wanted all my friends to know and watch out for this scam.

You didn't break any rules.... but this thread probably belongs in DC.

Re: Warning Watch Your Credit Card Statements!

bring it up with the card company. If you didn't authorize it, they should refund it.

Capt.
I did report it.
What I want people to know is that even if you had no contact with these scum bags you get billed.
WATCH OUT!

It is more common for scammers to charge $1-2. They do this as a probe.
Most people won't bother questioning or following up with this.

You go SS! I have until next December on my house and I'll finally know the feeling my parents have had for years. I can't wait! Just imagine all the extra boating gas money we'll have then..

Re: Warning Watch Your Credit Card Statements!

WE pretty much live on our two credit cards, AMEX for travel, car rentals and restaurants, though we hardly eat out much anymore, then there is the VISA which we use generally for everyday living, groceries, direct debting, and so forth.
My wife audits every charge like a hawk, she calls the card companies at the first sign of any ambiguity.
They are both paid if full on the 5th of each month. Good credit/charge card management is an extremely essential task if one chooses that one must have them.
My wife never never lets me forget those famous words of Dirty Harry (Clint Eastwood)
"A man needs to know his limitations".:D

I had a double post on a deposit for a trailer on my card and did not notice it until my wife asked me exactly how much did i pay for the trailer. it was made right, but if she didnt see it they would have been 1000 to the good. the guy said he made a mistake.. ???
