Experian
Unauthorized $14.95 and $19.95 Credit Card Charges

Unauthorized credit card charges for $14.95 (FreeCreditScore) and $19.95 (CreditReport) second week of April. Don't panic, it's a sleazy scam, but not a Soviet underworld, they're targeting our identity information, scam.

Chase Bank rep confirmed that they are getting hundreds of complaints, most within the last month. Once you file a dispute with your credit card company, they block Experian from making further fraudulent charges and they contact Experian on your behalf to reverse the charges. A new credit card is not necessary since it's only Experian behind this scam. They are making up stories about third parties using your credit card to scare you into buying their Identity Theft protection plan. Even worse, they are fraudulently collecting money for unrequested/unrendered services from people who don't check their statements closely. Contact your state attorney general and file a complaint. Contact the FTC too. I hope the FTC comes down hard on Experian and that we all get a few bucks from the resultant class action suit.
