I was watching my money last month. So I was cutting back on my spending to ensure I wouldn't have overcharges. So while closely watching my account everyday. Shopping essentials popped up for $19.99 the day before. Knowing I didn't use the card at all for close to a week, this struck my curiosity. I googled shopping essentials and BAM. First thing I see is about 300 reports of abuse and fraud from this website.
That didn't help me right now, so I went and got hold of the number. Called and was pretty stern with them. They said it was a discount shopper card. When I was told about this service. It was suppose to give you off 5% of all walmart purchases. Plus a $25 dollar walmart card. Not only did I see absoulutely nothing about this after the phone call.
I was told I would be recieving emails about the so said subscribtion. Being that... I asked him to reimburse my Money, and he said that he would. I then asked for some confirmation sent to me, and asked how it would be done. He replied with "Ohhh, well I will email you the confirmation"
I replied with "Thats great, Do you have my Email address Matthew Hammers?" (i.D. # 154099 which im sure is a fake number)
He said "sure do, and I will get that right out to you!"
I said "What is my email exactly sir?"
And he said"... Uhhh... I'm sorry it doesnt look like we actually do have it on file sir.."
It was after that That I pretty much just kind of relized I was never going to see my money ever again. Lost to a scam on the phone. My own stupidity thrown in my face. So. I hope this helps someone, im still hoping I might actually get that reimbursment in 3- 5 buisness days.
Ohhh and matthew hammer (i.D. # 154099) also did not know the number to contact him. Very convieniant if you ask me.
