I received several bogus charges on my Bank of America credit card starting on November 2nd including NewEgg, Buy, Uniquedesktopstyle, Kahphoto, and SAT N Sound. I have canceled the card but Bank of America is not aware of any fraud leaks from their computers. By Mark on November 11, 2009 at 05:30 PM
Just received a slew of fraudulent charges on my Bank of America card from Kahpoto.com, Sat N Sound, and some other stores. By Mark on November 11, 2009 at 05:07 PM
Unauthorized credit card charges were made from helps247.com followed by Sat N Sound and Kahphoto.com.
All under 2 dollars. Beaware! Notify your banks, some of them still have no clues! By Oxana on November 10, 2009 at 03:58 PM
I have recently been charged $1.29 from this account. It has been reported to my bank but no further action was taken.
I hope these scumbags will rot in jail when caught! By Angel on November 09, 2009 at 03:26 PM
Sat N Sound in Atlanta has posted a separate web page at http://www.satnsound.com/Fraud%20Page.html in which they claim their corporate identity has been stolen, and warning anyone who gets a charge from them to block their credit card immediately. They claim to be working with the FBI to resolve the problem.
This may be true, as soon as the problem became apparent, this company should have contacted their merchant bank, blocked their own account, and applied for a new one. That would have stopped the problem immediately.
I can't tell much about this company because their whole site seems to be in Chinese, but it seems to have something to do with Chinese satellite TV. In any case they list a street address so it is probably a legit business. But as I said they should have taken steps to stop whoever has pirated their identity, instead of letting the fraud continue. By Richard on November 08, 2009 at 01:54 PM
On 11/5 a charge was made to my card from Sat 'N Sound at 10am. Then 16 more bogus charges were added between 1pm and 3pm that same day, ranging from $1 to $163. This is obviously a "forward scout" fraud enabler, which tests stolen numbers then passes on the ones that clear, to other professional thieves.
I have a merchant account of my own, and if I ever pulled anything shady & got reported, they would cut me off in a minute. I don't see how these guys can keep their accreditation but somebody should go after them. By Richard Peterson on November 08, 2009 at 11:48 AM
I don't know who these bastards are but I was charged $1.66 today and I have never even heard of these cocksuckers! Everybody wants something for nothing I had to cancel my card and now have to wait a week for the new one! This is the second time in 2 years this has happened to me the first time I had just returned home from a 2 year deployment to Iraq! Thanks for letting others know!

THIS IS BOGUS -- THANK YOU FOR YOUR POSTINGS, BANK OF AMERICA ISN'T AWARE OF THIS SCAM YET! THEY ARE GETTING ME FOR AWHOLE $1.40. CHECK YOUR ACCOUNTS. By Kathy on November 07, 2009 at 08:52 AM
