I feel like this just happened to my mom. She had $395 taken out of her account just today. But she hasnt found any $1 fees yet, shes still looking. What should we do?

I was charged this $395 from United Medical Discount 3/25 and the $1 for Identity Protect on 3/18. Call your bank

I too was charged $395 and $1 numerous times during the last week of March.  It appears they're moving quickly.  Call your bank immediately...

I was charged $395 by Identify Protection Services 888-457-4304. I've never heard of this company before.

I have been charged for $395.00 and $1 for the "Identity Protect".  This phone number showing on my credit card statement.  I tried to call them but their phone always busy or no room for the voice mail.

I just got my VISA statement and noticed these same charges.  I was charged $395 from United Medical Discount (Benefit USA when you call and get machine) and then $1 for Identity Protect on 3/19/08 and the same amounts of $395 and $1 again the following week.  The other phone numbers that were listed are 888-261-6045 and 888-601-6278.

I recd sunglasses today.. and they look fyn and genuine company.

Site policy for handling customer information is impressive as they do not store customer credit card information on file like any other site. The customer credit card information stays between banks only, their store just get the info on payment made to their account or not.. SunglassReplicas is secure site and have nice selection of sunglasses.

Never got a call, but I did get two charges of $1.00 from identity protect and thre charges of $395.00 from United M dical Discount with different phone numbers on the bill, in two instances the 1-888-457-4304.  Yes, I had used Amazon just prior in that month myself.  Chase will refund the charges.  I am ALSO stationed in Iraq.  I hope the fraud boys & girls at Chase and other banks track this no good SOB down and frost his hide.  Bad enough to be fighting for our country without some moron stealing from us.

I ordered from sunglassreplicas.com they seems genuine to me.. Unless someone else using you credit card and processing the order in your name.

Anyone with information concerning 888-601-6278 please let me know.  I have a victim that was charged $395 on their credit card from this phone number.  The business name is United Medical.  I'm looking for information that will lead me to United Medical, so far, I have been unable to contact anyone from this business.  Anyone with information please contact me at detgharris@frontiernet.net.  Thanks in advance.

Our story is similar...WAMU card and a $1 charge on 3-25 the a $395.00 from United M dical(e is missing on statement)Discount for $395 and then it repeats 4 more times. The only place I used this card around this time was for a Disneyland area hotel reservation. Does that ring a bell? I alos used this card for GemsTV purchases- also out of Reno

talk to your checking instution and print off this page where others were charge those same amounts.  Bank will give you that money back and proceed after them.  It happen to us also.  We change our accounts.

Have you been able to find out additional information on this?  I just received my credit card statement and had mulitple $395.00 charges from United Medical Discount along with multiple $1.00 charges from Identity Protect?

I had this happen to me as well. 5 hits for $395 and 2 for $1 as stated numerous times. I have never used Amazon. I do use PayPal and it started just a few days after.

I was ripped off $1200 from this mf.  I dont want my money back , but I WILL have his genitals in a jar when I find him.  Anyone know his locale please respond for a $1000 reward, no questions asked!!

My husband and I also were charged FIVE different times with this company. Two charges with $395, two of $1, and one of $429!!!!  These people need to be stopped!  We have not been able to get through to the company and would like some answers!  We also had to cancel our credit cards to avoid anymore fraudulent charges.

We used amazon.com and were scammed by this same guy

Same deal with 395 1 395 1.  We used sunglassreplicas.com.  I called my cc company, chase, they took care of it

Why on Earth hasn't this company's merchant account been closed after all this fraudulent activity?

oh my god the same thing happened to me also. i ahve a lot of money in my account and sis not realize but these people took out over 1000$ out of my account. Luckily i am getting refunded though my bank. i would not call this guy kevin and give him anymnore info than he already has. I am going to call my local news station and do a report on it. I am from philadelphia PA. This is crazy hes gettin people all over the country. Good lukc everyone

Call your bank as soon as possible before they hit you again. And do like all of us are doing cancel your cards and file a PD report. Also file on the website about the internet fraud, FBI and your local state fraud hot-line.Has everyone here purchased something from an online  military surplus store? It seems somehow we are connected in some way.Good luck!

I just got my VISA statement and noticed these same charges.  I was charged $395 from United Medical Discount (Benefit USA when you call and get machine) and then $1 for Identity Protect on 3/19/08 and the same amounts of $395 and $1 again the following week.  The other phone numbers that were listed are 888-261-6045 and 888-601-6278. I'm so irritated!  I called my credit card company and they closed the account and now I have to fill out a Statement of Fraud to dispute the charges.

Well, you can add another to the list. Fortunately, the account they hit for me was one I never use so there was only a few dollars in there, but the bank put one through that overdrew my account, but they didn't charge me overdraft.  I had $1 on 3/20 and 3/25 with another one memo posted 4/8.  I went to the bank on 4/8 and closed the account so the memo dropped off.  Mine said "VSA PUR IDENTITY PROTECT 888-4574304 NV " and when I called I got an answering machine as well, definitely not voice mail, and old analog answering machine.  You can file a complaint with the FBI here http://www.ic3.gov/  It's a link to filing a complaint for internet fraud.  I just went to www.fbi.gov and followed the link.  I think we should all file a complaint and maybe that'll get their attention.

I hope they catch these people real quick it seems strange all of a sudden everyone is getting hit on the same dates?I filed through the FBI website on behalf of my husband.My husband has not purchased anything on the internet.The last thing we used his card for was to pay a bill for XM radio.And I signed us up for lifelock protection.Could it be somehow the thieves have access to their website and steal information? Believe me I,m not accusing just asking.I'm stunned I dont know how the info is getting out.Let's get these people locked-up and throw away the key!

I don't know if they called me but they hit my credit card twice with the 1.00 charge and once with a 429.00 charge on 888-261-6045 and they hit me for 395.00 on the 888-457-4304.  The problem is the credit card company let it all go through.  Obviously they are stealing this information off of credit card purchases done on line.
So how do you get someone to go after them?

I had a purchase on my Chase card last DECEMBER from a company named idSafe in the amount of $429.00.  There was no $1.00 charge.  Chase removed it promtly. Now in March, I had $429.00 from Identity Protect, $1.00 from Identity Protect, $1.00 again from Identity Protect and finally, $395.00 from United Medical Discount.

It appears all three of these companies are related but my first charge was last December.

I checked my business credit card from chase today.

1 $1.00 charge from IDENTIY PROTECT
2 $395.00 charge from UNITED M DICAL DISCOUNT

What can I do? I havnt called Chase yet...

I TRULY believe our credit card numbers are being obtained through a keylogger virus.  I did a sweep and it detected a keylogger...I URGE everyone to have their computer scanned because its no use to get a new card only to have the new number stolen as well.

They did the same thing to my husband he is in the military.They charged $395 on his credit card and also for ID protection. This is BS I have lifelock on both of us.And this was made in NV and my husband was in NC at his MOS.I dont know how they got the infomation because I shred all of our important papers.Pretty ticked off!!!
