Through the diligence of our bookkeeper it was found that SKS Associates had charged our business bank account $50.00 through electronic debiting. When called to inquire on the reason for the charge they wanted to know our bank account number. This was not provided to the person on the phone, a supervisor was requested and we were told that the charges were for a credit card machine. We immediately contacted our bank to place a stop payment to this company and file a fraudelent debit form. We also locked our account. We have never had a lease on a credit card machine, we have purchased them outright or paid a monthly fee for usage, but no leases. I do not know where this company is receiving its information from but I can bet this will continue to happen. Our next step is to change our account # and contact the NYS attorney generals office.
