Today I logged into our online banking account through Wachovia to discover an electronic check made payable to BBU Services for $29.95 was taken from our account. On the online Electronic check was a number of 877-456-5171. I proceeded to call the number and the people say it is for an online web service, so I asked what service and they can not even tell you.
In the meantime I noticed that my account #, routing#, and Name is correct but the address is totally incorrect, so I immediately hung up on her and called my bank. I was the 3rd person to have called over this. I filed a fraud report through the bank and they are giving my money back but we also had to close out our account of years and open a new one since our bank account # had been stolen.
I then googled the 877-456-5171 and found this is happening to tons of people and was surprised to not see it on here.
I then called the 877 # back and spoke to another lady, they will offer to issue a refund but will not give out any information on what service I supposedly purchased or even say where they are. With my home address being totally wrong on the check I think someone hacked into information somewhere and they will refund you if you complain... But the ones that dont or do not balance their check books they just made $29.95 on you for doing nothing.
Everybody needs to check their Bank Statements for this, some things I seem to have in common with some people:
I pay Capital One Credit Card online
I have Anthem Blue Cross
I pay Chase online
The $29.95 was deposited into aBank of America RPS Ready Cash Acct #1459264086 and when you call Bank of America they say the account does not even come up... So be alert
