Noticed a charge for $4.55 on my account.  Questioned it and sure enough its a theft.  Lucky its only $4.55 and I almost missed it.  Call your card company and get a new card!

This is a number associated with numberous online scams.With bogus business names running $4.55 charges into mastercard/debit bank accounts.
BEWARE OF (708) area code numbers, and $4.55 charges showing up in your accounts.

No phone call. On Jan 19, 2010 my Visa debit card was debited $4.55 to Global E Business, supposedly at 708 398 3213.

I didn't receive a phone call but I have used scoutstuff.org as well and just found a fraudulent charge of $4.55 show up on my debit/mastercard account as well. Definitely looks as though it is connected. On bank statement is shows up as Global E-Business 708-398-3212 IL US.  I guess I won't be ordering anything through scoutstuff.org again.

Oh It had no connection to BSA. I didnt make any purchase from them. It happened on 1/10/2010

I didnt get a phonecall but they hit my account for $4.55

Hmmm, I shop at scoutstuff.org (BSA's shopping site) as well and just found this same fraudulent $4.55 charge associated with 708-398-3213.

Doubleknot Inc has no affiliation whatsoever with Scoutstuff.org so it must be a coincidence.

Wow, interesting, I had it pop up on my bank card as well, and I use mine all the time at Scoutstuff.ord. I hope it is just a coinsidence.  You may really want to look into that John.

Doubleknot has investigated the above mentioned charge to a BSA Council by Chris.  Chris’s credit card was processed securely and without incident.
The source of Chris’s fraudulent $4.55 charge did not occur as a result of his payment to the BSA Council.

NO CALL; but got a 4.55 charge.  I used my card to purchase on the BSA website.  My bank blocked my card for me to eliminate additional issues; I also called my local BSA council and gave them a heads up. The controller said he would call doubleknot who run the accounting software for the BSA

I am trying to make a connection to this fraud. I have only made 1 purchase on line. My question is...Has anyone used the BSA website to purchase anything/ boy Scouts of america.

Did not receive a call, but have been charged twice by this fraudulent company.  First 4.55, then 1.55.

No call but fraudulant charge on my debit card/bank acct. from GLOBAL E-BUSINESS associated with SANDRA PLATH LLC IN IL. Reported to BBB where I traced the tel# at. Had to block my card.

Did not get a call, but as described by others, I noticed a $4.55 charge on my card account and this is the number that is associated with the charge and Global E Business.

I also got a fraudulent 4.55 charge.  Mastercard picked it up and flagged it as fraudulent automatically though.

Coincidence?  I also made a purchase from ScoutStuff.org (BSA Scouting Supplies) and to Boy Scouts of America (BSA) (for a National Capital Area Council training fee).  Six weeks later I ended up with a $7.55 fraudulent charge on my credit card.  The phone number listed on my credit card statement is 708-398-3213.

Jan. 8, 2010 Ms. Plath was still making fraudulent charges.  $4.55 to my acct. which has been cancelled.  A phone call is worth the garbled message just screams fraud!

I ALSO GOT A CHARGE OF $4.55 ON MY DEBIT CARD FROM Global e-business.
I didn't authorize it. I have to get a new card.
Global e-business(Tel708-398-3213) is fraud.
Global e-business(Tel708-398-3213) is wrongful.
Global e-business(Tel708-398-3213) is illegal.
Why don't Global e-business(Tel708-398-3213) go to the jail permanently?

i have used the scoutstuff.org but not around the time the 4.55 charge was put on the card. trying to find a connection.

we didnt get a call but we have been charge twice by globale-business. first time was in october and now again in january. tried to email the company but didnt get anywhere. called the credit card company and all they will do is  cancel the card and issue a new one. We dont want to do that because we have several auto drafts to that card.

hurray for this 800Notes site alerting me to call my cc company NOW (it's 3 am)  I was charged $1.55 from global e business
and it turns out it was FRAUD and I too, am getting a new credit card.

I got hit with a 4.55 on my account! Closed Everything!

They draw it out of my account about every 3 months. I thought this was Barnes and Noble for over priced coffee. But I see now that B and N is compromissed my account

I spoke to the UPS Store owner that this company gets their mail at (PMB #368)and the Police had already contacted the store owner so the Bellevue Police are aware of the situation and so is the store owner but the boxholder has long gone. However if you can follow the money and can determine where Global E-Business banks where the money is deposited from Visa/MasterCard then the bank can get involved. Most likely they set up the accounts under assumed names and social security numbers?

That address in WA indicats a PMB 368. Meaning Private Mail Box. It is a UPS Store or Private Postal Store and not an actual office/business location. If the store owner is contacted he will contact the US Postal Inspector as it is "mail fraud".

They appear to have tapped into JC Penney's Credit Card Data Base as that was the only charge we authorized for the same day. Can anyone else concurr that is the data base they accessed? No need to cancel your card just contact your bank and they will do a chargeback. That costs Global E-Business $30.00 every time that happens.

I was also hit on 01/08/10 with charges from this same merchant in the same amount as others for $4.55.  Here is some additional information about the website itself, who may be hosting or in support of this person/company.  I have already sent a fax advising that the AG office in WA, IL and my state are being notified.  If enough people flood this company with faxes it may help.  Also, it appears that this site was launched in August 2009.

Same charge, $4.55 after first transaction on ebay via paypal.  Called credit union was given a number to call, voice mail was foreign and bogus.  Searched for a website for globalebusiness.net, looked bogus also.  Called bank cancelled card immediately.  Paypal is supposed to be so secure, something is definately flawed with their system.

The number you gives comes up as a residence.
