Hi

Hi I'm to Oman

Hi warda how are

PEOPLE WILL SAY ANYTHING TO GET OUT OF PAYING A BILL, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO PHONE SEX.
PEOPLE CHANGE THEIR NUMBERS THEN WE ENDED UP CALLING THE NEW OWNERS, NOT A SCAM, JUST BUSINESS

VERY SMART AND TRUE ANSWER THANK YOU. PREVIOUS EMPLOYEE

I had a charge of 156$ then started getting brochures of the sex lines in the mail, anyone else get the mailings too? I wa scared how they also had my address!

$65.45  vision messaging

I have tried calling 888-400-0896 three times on behalf of a client and I have never spoke to anyone, I just keep getting hung up on.  Usually when an adult site is charged to a clients account it is legitamit, the client doesn't "remember" until I have pointed out each and every detail of the registration.  This one does seem a bit more fishey.  Is there another way to reach these people?

who ever is doing this is stupid. I just got almost 200$ taken out for this s***. its crazy. why has nothing been done about this since freakin 2008? stupid ppl. Whoever you are. you will not get away with stealing money from a poor a** bi***. end of story.

I got a debit purchase on my checking account for 8.97............. Im notifying the attorney general

Just saw my bank statement, transactions for $131.56 and $182.39 from a company called Vision Messaging, its the beginning of the month just paid rent, I am so pissed that my bank did not approve it, they call me for everything elce.

i just got charged 95.68 and i called and the woman said she can't credit my money back yet because it takes 24-48 hours to post.

just got hit for 53.31....and that is definitely NOT kool. Although my bank gave back the money, I have yet to hear from tis company!!! Just always check your bank account for any thing out of place. I dont care if its 2 cents....ITS MINE!!! and I want it back...  :(

Charged my account for $139.07 on 3/21/11. Twice for $53.63 and once for $31.81. I am aware of the nature of the "services" of this company as I called to tell them that I did not authorize this debit or recognize this company. They proceeded to rudely tell me that I called and gave them my information and then suggested when I refuted this that someone must have picked up my phone and used it, along with my debit card.  My phone is 100% of the time in my possession as is my debit card. Therefore since I know I did not make these phone calls nor do I text message ( as the representative rudely suggested), these are fradulent charges from a fradulent company. My bank also did not hesitate to tell me to report these as fradulent charges and stated that there should be no problem in refunding my account. Apparently they are all too familiar with this scam.

On my bank account statement I have a charge of $9.99 for vision messaging.  Looks like I lucked out, they didn't take near the amount other's are claiming.  Hopefully my bank will refund it though, I don't want these sickos having any of my money. Nobody has called me though, whats that all about?

Because we've been through this already.

Bri is correct.

how do you know this is a phone sex billing

I'm not sure if you people are aware but this is a phone sex billing number obviously someone who had access to your card used it to make a call.

This is a version of the automatic debit scam as described by the FTC here http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/telemarketing/tel06.shtm  It's frequently mysterious as to how they got your account info in the first place. They might be fraudulently charging your account outright or at some time, you might have given/used your account for something in exchange for a $-off coupon, a "free" trial of something, a survey, etc., and buried in the fine print is authorization to auto-charge your account every month with bullsh*t subscriptions that may be very difficult to unsubscribe from. The methods used to get you to "agree" to the fine print is endless and they come up with new ways every day. To stop the billing, contact the scammer to kill the subscription and get your money back and if that fails, tell your card issuer or bank that fraud has occurred and have them refund the money and replace the account. Report to the Internet Crime Complaint Center http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx , the Federal Communications Commission http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm , the Federal Trade Commission https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/ and your state AG, as appropriate.

They charged my account. 62.71!!! I'm pissed

Just found out that this company has taken $132.00 from my account. Not sure how they got my information. When I called they wanted my account number to verify, did not give it of course. My bank is going to investigate. I hope something can be done about this. I did not recieve a call from these people, bank said there was a $132 debit on my account.

These people took 200$ from my paycheck account. Not sure how they got my info but when I call they tell me to call back in 15 minutes and when I do they say again to call back cause thier computers are down. My mother was able to get an address on them but not sure how we can do anything. The address is 7657 Winnetka Ave. Canoga Park, CA. 91306

Can anyone Help?

My daughter just called me today with the same thing. Has anyone gotten their money back or been able to do anything about this?

i got charged 159.04 just got my bank stament today

I checked my recent transaction history on Oct. 16th and found out that Vision Messeging had taken $212.67 out of my account. They never called me so I am going to be calling them and give them a peice of my mind. Good luck to everyone on getting your money back.

My girlfriend got a charge of 164.99 on her credit card from vision messaging form my cell phone no one made this call from my phone but these people have tried to hit the account 9 times before they got something

Rediculous.. They took out $129.11. I'm a full time student and I only work on the weekends. Of course I'm gonna notice. Now I have to go through fraud report.

We want to know who this company is and why they think they can take out 221.40???? we did not give permsson

I have a fun story for this one. You'll all find it informative, too!

Back in early 2008 when I was finishing up college, some mysterious $124.10 charge nearly broke my very shallow checking account.  Obviously, I did my own investigation into this matter before I got into all the legal stuff.  

First of all, when you call you get some kind of automated message listing their departments.  The ONLY number that works from the extension list is something like "if you have a question about a charge on your account..."  I know that only one extension works because I tried all 3 options.  Customer service will get annoyed with you within about 2 minutes, which is a dead giveaway that it's a scam.  I realized this, but went along with their thing to see what the deal was.  They will tell you they work with "hundreds of vendors all across the country," so they can't look up the charge, you will have to give them your credit card # and personal information if you want something to be removed.  When pressed, they can't tell you any information about their company or what it is they do - can't even point you to a fake website or something (really poor scamming if you ask me).  Haha, I was told there were no customer service managers to speak to on the matter.  I was told there is no corporate number.  They couldn't list a single "client" they represent, not even one.  I simply asked them to "please just tell me one company you represent so I know this is legit."  She made up some excuse.  They even hung up on me when I said I wanted to complain to my bank.  Wow.  So pathetic.  These people must be dumb and stupid.  Can't believe there are still reports 2 years later, you think they'd be in prison.

Do not give them information.  Do NOT give them anything.  This is a scam, 100%.  My bank credited the entire amount, no questions asked - I thought they would pursue this as a legal matter but I recently discovered they probably did not do so.

Good luck, fellow victims.  Definitely contest the charge with your bank to get your credit back.  I think this operation is out of California - so if you live there - notify the attorney general about this, too.
