Re: Trouble Bubble LLC Collegeville?
said by Kip patterson  :Clever. They picked a name that is truly difficult to search. First step is to protest at your bank. Not likely you can do much beyond that. Already done:) Charge went in yesterday morning. Already protested the charge and shut down the card. I figured if nothing else making a thread might bring more people in on a search who might've ran into this company.
lol, On top of that just last night we got a call from someone who was dying to give us a 20,000 dollar grant from the govt (sarcasm) and all she wanted was our bank account number, you know, to verify. Sounds like such a good deal!(/sarcasm)

| You should ask your bank to give you whatever contact information that they have in the system for that vendor. While the info may be bogus, it would be worthwhile to post. All merchant accounts will have a tag with some form of contact info.
I can assure you that if the charge only went yesterday morning, there will be many others who get it too. These high volume low charge amounts, are the current card scam du jour.

Glad you posted. Same thing happened to me. I've reported it to my charge card company. They indicated that it was some kind of "remote charge" in that the "vendor" didn't even have to have my credit card number if I understood them correctly.
I called the number (480) 452-0120 and got some sort of voice mail that also asked if I was ready to send a fax. It seemed important to the credit card company that I had attempted the contract - the person on the line said by doing that they could automatically put a dispute on the charge.
If I recall the drill, I will still want to send a letter to my credit card company protesting the charge, etc. Just a pain to have to do. Have had stuff similar to this pulled - once the credit card company detected it and blocked the charge before calling me. |
