INNOVATIVE SOFTWARE TE charged my card $9.95 and it seems to be a big thing nowadays as people rarely catch the fake charge. There are other company names being used.
Heres some people talking about it.

(Yes, they got me) (bank is returning money.)
Check your statements closely someone even got hit after going to Disney site to book a trip.
What amazes me is I run spyware programs daily if not even twice, and antivirus software 3 times a week.
I guess its spyware embedded in webpages.
I bought from 3 different websites that day so I'll never return to them.
If I can't pay with PayPal then forget it. |

As someone noted elsewhere in this forum, many credit companies do not check the authenticity of charges less than about $20 US. We may begin to see a lot more of these sort of charges in the near future, I suspect, until companies start to check the authenticity of all or nearly all charges.
I suspect that this sort of activity is not spyware-induced, but merely the result of some entity(ies) who has learned how to game the system. |
