OSCommerce is used in many of the California AMEX fraud card laundering sites.

They were hitting AMEX branded cards issued by numerous banks, and included many victims from the UK as well as the US. I believe the fraud has operated non stop, it just manages to mostly stay below the radar. The origins of this operation can be traced back to 2002.
Hopefully if there are other victims of this fraud will find the thread and post.

the site was created in march, however one of the games was added to the "inventory" in december. that's a hot game!
and in the checkout, why do they care if i'm male or female? It doesn't verify cc numbers at all, totally made up everything (been a long day, trying to lighten the mood), it confirmed my order. so it's sending something to a totally made up order somwhere out there in a city i have no idea where it is 
and the single one game i "bought" shows up in the best seller list lol

I have also been a victim of this SMS Outlet charging my AMEX card. It has happened twice now. The first time in mid-March and again this past week. On both occasions, the charges came through on a Sunday...very suspicious. The first time the charge came in, I contacted AMEX and they simply credited the less than $20. amount back to me. I thought it was over. Late last night I just happened to think about it again and checked my account online...Voila! There it was again, the exact same amount! Something I find strange is that I never use this card, and in fact don't even carry it with me. I contacted AMEX again today and insisted that it be investigated as Fraud and informed AMEX that I had discovererd several blogs dedicated to this very scam. Obviously this SMS Outlet is a known scammer to AMEX and why they are allowed to continue as a 'merchant' with them is beyond me. I cancelled my card so they cannot charge me again. Another strange thing is that this is the second AMEX card I have had to cancel due to someone somehow getting the number. I am starting to wonder if somehow this is an 'inside job'. |
