My wife rented a car from budget rent a car, in january of this year... in march I discovered that "shoppers advantage" had debited and then 7 days later credited my acount in the amount of $89.99. I called them to inquire as to who they were, and why they accessed my personal account. They stated that my wife agreed to a trial subscription to their service at the time she rented the car. That was not true! The odd part was that they rescinded the transaction BEFORE I ever even discovered that it had occured! I chalked it up to a mixup, and got on with my life... Two days ago, I discovered ANOTHER $89.99 debit to my account, this time from "travelers advantage"... A little research led me to discover that both of these fraud perpertrators are part of the Trilegiant "family of thieves" which is comprised of @15 or 20 of these "consumer loyalty" scammers!!..in addition, I discovered that the co is affiliated with the parent co of Budget!!!..
It became clear to me after a little on line searching, that this is a MASSIVE fraud operation stealing MILLIONS of dollars annually from unsuspecting suckers! If you don't check your bank statements carefully, you're their best friend!
I'm a retired guy with lots of time on my hands... I'm looking for others who have been victimized by these scoundrels, and I want to dedicate my time to bringing them down!!
