RE : Thank you for using your PayPal Debit Card for your payment of $72.21 USD to POWERSALE 877-244-1121 CY.
Please log in to your PayPal account and view your transaction history for more information.
This company POWERSALE 877-244-1121 CY. which alienate to A1 MEMBER 866-200-5473 GB just try to clean up my PayPal account !!!
This number appeared on a debit transaction from my checking account. I did not authorize any deduction to this company and it is for the exact same amount as yours...$72.21. I also use paypal, but the payments are up to date and these payments show up in a different format. I have tried to call the number and keep getting a "fast" busy signal or "call cannot be completed as dialed" recording.
Dear friend, I got the same charges on my account and they all have different names, like blazing keywords, or product resource club. I called 888-28-5545 talked to Peter ext 10511. See if it helps he said my money would immediately be returned to my account.
Powersale $72.21 fraud charges and $2.17 international transaction fee - unauthorised charges from my card. I research here and find this is a big SCAM. :(
I had this happen to me just this weekend. The charge appeared on my banking statement today when I was checking my online statement. I tried calling the 877 number and could not get through. I tried calling the 866-200-5473 number that was listed in one of the other post on this site and reached a person who after we talked advised that the charge was for my account with Blazing Keywords. I advised him that I had do not have an account with them, nor had I authorized an account or withdrawal from my account. I requested the account be cancelled and that my account be credited back the full amount. I was given a confirmation number and advised that within 7-10 days that I would have a refund. Hope this helps.
I did the battle with them also - took two days. You have the option of telling your bank you want to rescind the authorization for the debit transaction - this doesn't mean Blazing Keys won't try to put it through again in which case you have to go through the credit process with them.
If you call them, get name and extension number of person you talk to and then get a cancellation confirmation number. You can also email them
Support@blazingkeywords.com and in the subject line put in caps RR609:REFUND FOR (your name) It may help expedite the process
I HAVE 2 DEDUCTIONS ON MY CHECKING ACCOUNT BAN INTERNET TRANS 800-851-6125 CY CY CHARGED $40 & POWERSALE CHARGED $72.71 .... I HAVE CALLED IN & EXPLAINED I HAVE NOT AUTHORIZED THESE CHARGES!!! THESE FUNDS NEED TO BE RETURNED IMMEDIATELY ....I HAVE MY ATTORNEY PREPING A LETTER TO THE BBB! I EXPECT AN IMMEDIATE RESPONSE TO CONFIRM MY FUNDS HAVE BEEN RETURNED. OTHERWISE I WILL BEGIN THE PROCESS TO CONTEST CHARGES WITH MY BANK!
I just got a charge on my debit card from BAN INTERNET TRANS for $34.97! I was given the 1-800-851-6125 number to call when I called my card company to find out what the charge was from. I called it and got a "The Cricket number you have called is no longer in service" message! What do I do?
Just wondering if you ever got your refund? Same thing happened to us AFTER purchasing something from APL*ITUNES. First a non-standard ITUNES charge of $9.84 -- Apple said their record shows $9.99. Then 3 charges for $72.21 and 3 charges for $38.34 (two on the same day).
If you notice these charges on your credit card, call your credit card company and dispute the charges. You should reverse the charges. This is the second time these charges have appeared on my credit card. I called my credit card company and cancelled my credit card...they are issuing me a new one. This should stop any future charges.
I guess I'm not alone on this. I was billed $73 this morning and the number on my statement was disconnected. Looks like everybody else had the same problem. but yeah so my bank was able to track down the right number for me - 888-244-1121. I called them and got my money back. Hope this helps. Good luck.
I called them and told them I wanted a refund and wanted to cancel. They gave me a Confirmation # and I also wrote down the mans' name and ext #. A week later they gave me my $$ back
1. Cancel your credit or debit card--Get a new card with new number! Your financial information has been compromised and you will be getting further debits to that card, If not now then they could come back later when you are unaware. This scam is refining into a form of "Identity theft" as your financial information is being traded to other cohorts without your permission or knowledge.
2. File a fraud charge with your credit card or bank and let them sort it out. They have more muscle to go after this sort of crime. Explain to them about all the consumer complaints that are on the internet and "insist" that they do charge-back or file a fraud charge. Your bank or credit card organization has all the tools necessary to find out where the charges are coming from, what business is involved, addresses and phone numbers connected to the charge and etc. You may not know or have access to this information. The banks and credit card org have all this at their fingertips and are obligated to handle the problem that has resulted. More info at: http://www.chrismalta.com/scamtip1.asp
3. File a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. Their job is to monitor and go after these types of scams. http://www.ftc.gov/ftc/cmplanding.shtm
4. File a complaint with your state Attorney General and also with the Attorney General of Utah (where a lot of the phone numbers and addresses seem to be located)
5. Filing a complaint with the BBB is toothless as the scam already is rated with a "F".
6. File complaint at http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx This is a place to report internet crime and is a combination gov agency of FBI, White collar Crime and Bureau of Justice Assistance.
7. After you filed with all the above agencies feel free to call any numbers you may possess that are connected to the "unauthorized charges" to try and recover all your money but take their word with a grain of salt. Don't hesitate to let them know what you have done or intend to do as they need to be shown that you mean business! If you succeed in getting your money returned you will have still taken steps to put their scam out of commission.
I have called all these numbers with the almost the same result: 877-244-1121 is fast busy signal 866-200-5473 with a message of "our office is closed, please call back at regular business hours, good bye" it's 8:30am eastern time here so if it's mountains standard there - wouldnt it be later for them? and 877-208-6490 with the message, please call back between our regular business hours of 8am to" -can't remember, something like 5pm - Mountain standard time! GRRRRRR
I'll be looking for more help on this to get my money back but any additional help would be appreciated; you can reach me at brohdaw@comcast.net
Hi there, I'm in Canada and I have 3 charges to my credit card, one is in the amount of 2.37$ and the other two are of 82.37$ So does this mean they are going to continu taking money off of my credit card? If so how to I put a stop to this. I tried calling the number and it said to call back during business hours, but they don't say what their business hours are.
I guess I'm not alone on this. I was billed $73 this morning and the number on my statement was disconnected. Looks like everybody else had the same problem. but yeah so my bank was able to track down the right number for me - 888-244-1121. I called them and got my money back. Hope this helps. Good luck.
Yes this company is a scam. I applied online for the service and was charged $1.97. No username or password was provided to me, the 877-244-1121 number was on my bank statement and that number was disconnected. I called 866-200-5473 number and spoke with a rep who assured me my account was "cancelled" and to call back tomorrow for a confirmation number. I sat on the line for 20 min going back and forth explaining to her that I didnt feel comfortable with doing that because of the previous posts on this site and the fact they never provided a startup kit and gave my info to other merchants. She then put some supervisor on the line who provided the confirmation number with no problem. Stay away from this site. Its luring because its advertised with : As seen on AOL, CNN, etc Im contacting them as well to hip them to this scam.
I called A1 Member # 866 200 5473 for POWERSALE shown on preceding posts and was able to cancel the charges to my acct but no hope of credit for moneys already charged. This was a rip off.
