Re: Unauthorized charges - digismarket & mfbpsite
This sounds very much like something I had experience and reported here some time ago - but it was a different company name. »Strange CC charge - disputed

| Yes, I recall the last round - it was for "web services" or some internet-sounding companies.
This scam seems to be quite successful, and will continue to be as long as "legitimate" companies sell or otherwise fail to protect identity and card information.
Banks and law enforcement treat them as one time $4.95 mistakes not worth pursuing rather than a $4.95 x 50,000 victim fraud scheme. That ensures their success.
The good thing is that MSNBC picked up the story. Maybe once the media start in with their hoopla - style reporting, the issues will be taken seriously.

| I just read something on MSN that said lots of the people getting illegaly charged are also paying members or equifax credit services. I bet an employee there is leaking the credit card info if I had to guess. |

| I meant "They are a paying for the credit services of equifax" I didn't mean to say "or", I meant to write "of". |
