A charge went through yesterday on my VISA that I did not recognize.
Jul 12 MYPPHELP.com 8005146993 $49.63
I did a quick Bing search and came up with this site (THANK YOU TO ALL WHO POSTED BEFORE ME!) Knowing I wasn't alone, I called VISA to ask them to remove the transaction as it is completely and utterly unfamiliar to me. They transferred me to the VISA Fraud and Security detail. A super helpful and nice woman then proceeded to tell me that there was a second transaction today (July 13) at 2 PM for another $49 and change PLUS a third one for just over $1 for a total of exactly $101.
All three transactions are suspended pending VISA's investigation and I am not obligated to pay the $101 while the investigation is ongoing (3-5 weeks) – no interest will be calculated either. She promptly cancelled my card and is sending a “rush” replacement directly to my bank branch location. While it’s not a guarantee that I don’t have to pay the $101, I feel confident it will turn out OK.
