I have few creditcards that I keep but make no purchases on. After few months of not checking on them, I checked it one day. I've noticed numerous unexplained charges, some as many times as 4 times a month.
I could only see as far back as 3 months back with my creditcard online bills, but sure enough, they there were every single months charging me for membership fees!
There were few company names, all starting with "AP9*." There were—SHOPPINGESSENTIALS, SAVINGSMART.com, and SHOPPINGESSENTIA-V.
They each charged me every month, there were a lot of $1 charges, which was every few days, and much bigger charges of $16.95-$19.95 once every month.
I called up my creditcard company and they explained to me that they were a internet based companies that obtains your information through the net and signs you up for their bogus services.
They advised me to cancel my creditcard and create a new one, so that they can't make another freudulant charges.
I knew that I needed to make this report and so, I went to their website to obtain information about them, but to NO surprise, they did not have any real physical address listed and NO official E-Mail address where they can be reached.
Take it from me, if you are a another victim of this freudulant company or individual, make sure to dispute the charges with your creditcard company and cancel your old creditcard, so that they can't do this to you again.
Please help others by spreading the news and write another report, if you are a another victim.
