I was checking my bank account status online and noticed a charge that I did not make for $292. The only information listed with the charge was the following web address: www.4billinfo.net. When I went to this website, it was obvious that I had been scammed.
I went BACK to my online checking account statement and saw 2 debits AND 2 credits in the amount of $19.95 from "EXPORTADORA CAMPS".in addition, there was a charge for $139 about a month prior that I had somehow overlooked. I immediately called my bank and had both my checking account and my check/debit card cancelled and they are investigating.
I have no idea when I will get my money back, but am also contacting the police and my Father works for the FBI in DC, so he's trying to get some help from his FBI buddies as well. I found a phone number for the "company" and am having a lovely time leaving them messages about the police report that I am filing and the information that is being given to the FBI. I realize they are small fish in a big sea of online thieves, but it makes me feel better to freak them out.
