UPDATE:  The bank neglected to close the check card; as a result, one more transaction came through today.  The bank is investing the matter, all necessary report documents have been completed including the police report.  The bank did report none of the purchases were address confirmed or security code confirmed.  As a result they may fall off within two days as the bank requires such confirmations.

Verizon wireless prepaid does not even allow a life person to respond to such matter instead notifying those calling their fraud line (via recorded message) that they are not responsible and can not help them.  The only assistance they DO offer is for you to report such activity to your banking institution.  Verizon does require address and security code confirmation when making such purchases for their prepaid cards online (which this was an online purchase through their site) yet the Verizon representative (the 5 I spoke to) stated these were not normal transactions according to their files and they didn't make sense.  They obviously made enough sense to make to the pre-authorization phase of purchase.  Verizon Wireless Prepaid has known about this problem for years yet continues to do business as usual without making the changes necessary to prevent such fraudulent activity.  They do have very professional employees who go as far as they can to help, even so, what Verizon DOES offer comes across as "sucks to be you," "nothing we can do," "there are no plans to address the issue either."

Now on the hunt to see which other avenues are at my disposal to report to.

CANCEL YOUR CREDIT CARD!
YOU'VE BEEN HACKED.
GET A NEW CARD.

I have a recurring charge of $200.00 and one for $115.00 and one for 19.95 on the same statment(one month ) and never heard of them!!
                                   vzwrlss*walccrvn r27 folsom ca.

same thing happend to me today for $351.95

Ive gotten billed from VZwrlss and never have been with verizen and now never would.  Someone stole my card info and you sorry sacks let it go through so WTF couldnt you see the billing info wasnt the same as shipping or that it was in some elses name.

vzwrlss i think is an online or phone way of paying for minutes so all someone needs is to get your cards # and your off to the races by getting billed by them.  As a reply to the corporate buttmunch that was on here many of us have never had a phone with your company but are getting billed so yeah get yourself a shovel or better a backhoe full your so full of it its not funny.

You should just save that number to your contacts and save that contact for a ring-tone as NO RING.  Second go to call settings in your phone and set it to answer in a way you do would select to answer the call, such as any key or the send key to answer a call rather than flipping open the phone which is answering the call ever time you open the phone. Lastly its probably a spammer, calling to get your credit and personal info for identity theft, that's a no brainer!!

I have called my Visa bank to contest the charges of $53.50 from a California source.
I was not able to talk to a 'live' attendant at V\ISA

I know why

well, this just happened to me for 105$.....my bank tryin to say it an ex bf and the bank wont listen to me.

On 2/8/11 my Citicard got billed $518.96 for a call I did not make.  Upon plugging in the invoice address, I came to this website stating calls being made from Flosom CA which is the  same area from which I got billed.

Happened once to me in 2/11 and after much b.s. with Chase M/C debit card finally got money back after my claim was initially denied. Now a couple of weeks ago it happened again. I just closed account than deal with more b.s.. Interestingly enough, I see that the same scam has been going back on this thread to at least 07. I'm just a regular guy, who incidentally is some what security conscious, but not crazy with it. Meaning, we conduct business within the accepted mode of commerce with a reasonable amount of good faith, yet are not protected. When the same scam goes on and on seemingly unchecked, I got to really wonder.

I sympathize with everyone who had to disrupt their lives to navigate through the maze perpetuated by sick in the head people who don't know what they don't know, mainly that they are really hurting and sick people who are hurting others. My best to you all.

I just happened to look up my Discover statement online and saw a charge for $227.27 to VZWRLSS*ETM NNY50805601. Although I do have Verizon for my cell phone, it is not connected to this charge at all. I have a contract and do not use my Discover to pay bills. I did use it as my main shopping source for Christmas. Most of my shopping was through Amazon.Com. Verizon or Amazon needs to seriously check into this. Verizon is useless because It is not connected to my number. I feel, if I supposedly purchased something from them on my credit card, I have the right to know the number connected to it. Criminals have more rights than honest people! Verizon transferred me 3 times, the 3rd of which was a recording stating that they could do nothing for fraudulant charges. I guess they only help thieves. Note:When trying to get through to Verizon and the recording asks for your cell number, hit 0 rapidly several times. This should transfer you to a live person. Although the person is usless in fraud cases, at least you get through. Discover is checking into the situation and has suspended the charge for now. The Verizon number listed on my bill was: 800-922-0204 NJ It had something to do with the charge. I'm thinking it was an online purchase because ETM may stand for Electronic Transmission. Just a guess after Googling everything I possibly could. I did not receive a phone call regarding this, it was just a charge on my Discover bill. It seems to be the same issue.

Yeah its depressing. They've been siphoning money from my debit account for a whole month and now i have no money to get back and forth to school. AND DURING FINALS!!!! Coem on guys, really? Seriously?

I googled "VZWRLSS*PREPAID OT" and found your post.  It's still happening!  Just happened to me on my credit card.

I found this charge on my US Bank Card today for $939.00. I called my bank and disputed. I called Verizon and while helpful could not find anywhere on my accounts where this charge came from. I still have my credit card which is the scary thing so how someone got my number is a little concerning. I've never had a prepaid card. I dont understand how they can't be a little more careful on a purchase of $939 no matter how you slice it.

I cancelled and ordered a new card.

I was charged over $500 with VZWRLSS*ETM NNY5080501 800-922-0204 NJ; pretty much the same as Chris Ruhm.  Verizon Wireless has been very helpful and are in the process to see where the charge came from.  In the meantime, I placed a claim with my credit card company; they too have been very helpful.  My credit card is not considering the charge a fraud since I have an account with Verizon; it's a wait and see what the findings are.

was this a scam vzwrlss is debiting my account regularly with out permission non pinprepaid debt

I got a statement (or two) of these in my bank acct. But I know its cause I added minutes. But I got 4 transactions like this last time at my old bank (a community bank) and I tried to dispute it, but Verizon did nothing but remove it from the system, and my bank did nothing but have me running in circles. Then tried to blame it on me that I should be careful. BULL CRAP! Verzion's security should be careful.
Glad I'm with Bank of America.

Your nuts, I do these investigations and it is fraud. The billing process and the content is the companies responsibility.  Thousands of victims and only a few show up here;  stop defending the crooks
