Today I noticed an unauthorized charge for $29.95 on my checking account. It was in the form of a check conversion voucher, and was paid to a company I'd never heard of, calling themselves "Alliance". The phone number listed on the check rang into an automated line that said "please enter your associate number." I notified my bank and they put a fraud alert on my account, and it is being investigated by the fraud department. This unauthorized check fraud is not just a scam, but out-and-out theft. Theft of money is bad enough, but theft of a bank account number is a form of identity theft and I treated it as such. I notified the 3 credit bureaus & had a 90-day fraud alert put on my reports, just in case. If these criminals have my bank account information, they could have my social security number, etc. I then filed a report with my local police department and the FTC. In addition, I filed a report with the Ohio Attorney General's Office (where I live) and the Florida Attorney General's office as "Alliance" is said to be based out of Miami, FL, according to the police officer I spoke with. He said these complaints are common all over the country and that each case is unfortunately not taken seriously because $29.95 is an insignificant amount of money. However, when $29.95 is stolen from thousands of people, it adds up to a very significant amount of money! These criminals need to be stopped. If everyone that is a victim of this crime would take the time to report to banks, law enforcement, FTC, Attorney General offices, credit bureaus, etc., perhaps we could get this stopped once and for all, as it has been going on for years, which is far too long!

i had this happen to me also ! the check had my name on it but wrong address also stated that it was authorized by my electronic signature!! this was a couple years ago when this happened! so i started researching who could of got my info and it turns out that most everybody that got scammed has cenlar for their mortgage servicer! they service all kinds of banks loans! so if you have a mortgage and pay online go and check out who processes your loan!! so i am sure that is where the leak is!! it was a big pain in the a**! had to close my acount after having it 20 years! but my bank did take care of the 29.95! that they stole! so i have been snail mailing my payment every month and have not had a problem yet!!

I never received a phone call, however I noticed a charge on my daily transaction statement for $29.95 in November 2012. I noticed a "Check Conversion Voucher" when I looked at the transaction. I called my bank, and they gave me the # for Alliance 877-886-0144, and gave me the IP address for the transaction -which is located in Florida. When I called Alliance, they told me that it was for a magazine subscription that was ordered in October. I said I never ordered a magazine subscription. The lady on the phone asked me if I was Randall McPherson. I said no, and I don't know who this person is, and the IP address for this transaction is in Florida, but I live in Texas and have never been to Florida, so she said to allow 30 days to refund the money. After 30 days, I called Alliance and they told me to allow 30 BUSINESS DAYS..At this point, I was beginning to get really frustrated, but I waited until the 30 BUSINESS DAYS were over, only to call back and be told they would refund my money in 3-4 BUSINESS DAYS. I then told them that this is ridiculous and I wanted my money back, or I would be filing a complaint. After the 3-4 BUSINESS DAYS were up, I called the number and hold music comes on for an extended period of time. I then called my bank, and was told that since it's after the 30 days, they can't dispute the transaction for me, and I would have to dispute it myself, and/or call the police. I called the company back again (877-886-0144), only to be told that they needed my home address to send out a check in the mail. I said i'm not giving my address to this company b/c I don't know who they are. I further requested information about the company. The representative said the call is routed to India. The actual name of the company is Billing Solutions in India, but the transaction was drafted by a company called Alliance.I asked for website, mailing address, phone #, etc for Alliance and Billing Solutions, but they said they don't have any of that?!?!?! Basically, this is a scam b/c they are never going to give you your money back; in my opinion, they want to get your mailing address so they can gain more access, and possibly commit more fraud. I am quite upset about this. I don't know what to do next b/c while it is only $29.95 from me; they are making an abundant amount of $ if they draft $29.95 from multiple accounts. I am going to leave this in GOD's hands and let him deal with them.

Do you have his email or phone number? I was told I would receive a refund but still have not. No one answers the phone now at that number, it just keeps you on hold.

| Nicolle 2013-01-08 18:20:38 Unknown |
Happened to me 11/23/2012. Has anyone called Cenlar? I called today and they told me that they did not know what I was talking about!
| Theo 2013-01-06 20:15:00 Unknown |
The 29.95 you all lost will never be seen again. The Alliance is a co-theft Co. with paysoft which is the company that gets the theft going. If you notice Alliance tells you they are a check processing bussiness but infact paysoft is the check processing company. Without paysoft , Alliance can't process the theft. Anyone
can process a theft through paysoft for just pennys for each transaction. The information Alliance gets such as account information may come from network enumerating or a company or bank employee selling enformation. Just because you give a thief a job does'nt mean they won't rob you. I've tried to get something done about the lowlife robbers of Alliance but its just not a big deal to most people because it does not effect them. Also now days people just blow off 29.95. You think your locale street cop gives a crap if you got ripped for 29.95 threw the banking scam. Good luck.
| anonymous 2013-01-04 23:28:49 Unknown |
Do NOT wait. IIRC you have a 60-day window to alert your bank to the theft and ask for your money back. Call your bank, ask to claw the money back and to change your account because criminals have it and they can charge again.

I work for a bank and have had a lot of these to come through. you should be able to go to your bank and fill out a statement of unauthorizes debit and they should be able to return the debit and get your money back.

Same thing happened to me. My mortgage is also with Cenlar, and I have had the same experiences as everyone else here. I am closing my checking account with 5/3rd, filed a police report, contacted the credit bureaus to report credit fraud, and have signed up with an ID protection service. Good luck.
| T Meyer 2012-12-18 17:51:59 Unknown |
Took 29.95 from bank account....Phone number just goes to answering machine and placed on hold with music.... FRAUD Scheme. Made Police Report after going to my bank.
| Takitavi 2012-12-13 23:48:43 Unknown |
I didn't receive a call from here. I also had the charge show up on my hometown credit union checking account for $29.95. Due to a recent illness and death in the family and having to pay and close their accounts, it took me awhile to determine that this wasn't an authorized charge. My bank provided a copy of the electronic check with the names "Alliance" and "Paysoft International" and the phone number to contact for questions 1-877-886-0144. I called the number (before I found this website) and Roseanna told me this was for a website subscription (?) She also told me I would get a refund and not to contact my bank or I'd get a double refund (?).
I do not have or use a debit card. However, I did have a loan through TWB that was transferred to Cenlar. It is the ONLY automatic payment that comes from this account. That maybe not the be source of the ID theft, or it maybe several sources. After reading this, I'll be at the bank tomorrow to close out this account.
| Alex 2012-12-13 09:48:15 Unknown |
Same here. What I don't understand is that it is not possible to do something against this? I want more then just my money back. Isn't there a number or we could call to investigate them?
| Fraudadvenger 2012-12-12 22:18:12 Unknown |
Anyone that has been hit with this scam, please let your banking institution know about it immediately. The item can be sent back and credit granted back to you. More important close the account and establish a new one. Based on the prior posts it appears that personal information has been compromised by an entenity that has not disclosed this to the public yet.
If you have someone near you that has also had a mortgage loan have them review their statements to determine if their account has been compromised. if so CLOSE THE ACCOUNTS and establish new ones with some security precautions.
1) Checking account Micr lines (routing and account numbers) are the easiest to use fraudulently. Know who you are giving your checks to.
2) Use extreme care with internet purchases using your checking account info. If you have a pre-paid debit card with a balance to reflect only the purchase you make use that instead.
3) Take a minute and make a complaint... The more complaints the more interest will be taken to go after this scam. (https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/)
4) Place a fraud alert on your credit profile with a call back number. This will last 90 days anyone that attempts to use your personal info will be detected immediately instead of after the fraud has occurred.

The same thing happened to me. $29.95 came out of my account. Called the number and said it was some kind of subscription...So I told them I want my money bc I never authorized that! They said my money would be refunded with in 30 days. Ive called my bank about it and if my money doesnt get refunded my banks gonna take care of it! This is crazy!!!
| Teddybear 2012-12-12 15:27:54 Unknown |
Did you ever get your money back? Same thing just happened to me. They told me I'd get my money refunded so was just wondering. Just called my bank too!
| Jim 2012-12-08 13:33:49 Unknown |
Hit with $29.95 charge to my checking account. They used a check Conversion voucher under the name of Alliance. I phoned the number on the voucher and "Anna" told me that Paysoft was a third party processor for Alliance. She immediately offered to refund the money in " fifteen days" Sounded very cooperative but
based on other posts here I doubt I will see anything. The only check I mailed out was for a Golf magazine
subscription. This is a possible leak of my info. I phoned my bank - PNC who have turned this over to their fraud group
| Hacked for $29.95 2012-12-07 03:44:38 Unknown |
Same story: I noticed a funny check number for this funny amount when I checked my account online today (12/6/12). I called the credit union and they said it was posted as "Alliance" and gave me this 877 number everyone else is reporting. I called it, and the lady verified my name and address. Then she said it was a reoccurring charge for a subscription, authorized on 10/18/12. I told her I'd do more research and call back. She said I wouldn't get her, but I could call back, cancel and they'd credit the money back within 15 days.
When I called back to "cancel," I was told that it would be taken care of and my money would be credited back, but I shouldn't tell my bank or I'd get a double refund and that's illegal (!) I DID call my credit union and reported the fraud. I see a common thread with a mortgage company, and I want to talk to my loan officer more about this, but my mortgage is through a "hometown" bank who should not have sold my loan.
And the obvious question is, "Why don't people spend that much time/energy making an HONEST living?!"
| Whits5 2012-12-04 04:03:09 Unknown |
YES! What have you found out?
| bwhit 2012-12-04 02:24:31 Unknown |
Hit on Friday the 30th for 29.95 from Alliance. I bank with Fifth Third. Found the charge for the 'voucher' today, ran to the bank, opened a new account and filed the fraud charges with the bank manager. If you haven't closed your account, do so immediately!! the account can be accessed again by these scammers unless you close it. This sucks!
| IcalledTheBank 2012-12-04 01:09:33 Unknown |
These morons sent thru a check voucher to my bank for 29.95. First I called Alliance and told them I did not authorize any charges and the woman immediatly said I would receive a refund. After thinking about it, the refund came too quickly so I called my bank and filed an AFFIDAVIT OF UNAUTHORIZED ENTRY FOR REMOTELY CREATED CHECKS (DEMAND DRAFTS)
The bank returned the draft and is issuing a refund as THEY dispute the charge with ALLIANCE
Another freaking hour of my life wasted for this BS
| Heather 2012-12-03 11:37:58 Unknown |
Just got hit with this $29.95 scam as well. Called Wells Fargo, filed a dispute and immediately cancelled that bank account and re-opened a new one. I didn't even bother with the 800 number on the fraud check, based on the info people have left on here.
