Open your eyes

[jada2002]

Hi, :D

This past week my bank called me to go over some charges on my account, they think it be fraud. Two charges stood out totally $200.00
I called the company who claimed I authorized these charges. I did not.
After being called a lier, I informed this person that if I do not receive a credit within 2 weeks I would report them to Mastercard and BBB He refused at first to tell me his name, which at the end of the conversation
he offered it to me.

I called my bank who wanted me to wait the 2 weeks and if they don't credit my account they would arbitrate on my behalf. :)

My reason for sharing this with you is because, if my bank did not catch this error I would have paid $200.00 for nothing. We must be careful when we give out our account # banking information, SS# almost anything. Some companies sell and trade our personal information to each other. Try to find at least once a month all your via internet charges.
You might find something that you did not charge. Keep your eye on your charges. :D

Open your eyes and see things as they really are.

That is a general idea. Whatever you do in your life , you must keep your eyes opened, because most of the time there is always somebody ready to use the opportunity of a weakness.

Well this is obvious but good advice. My advice to everyone is watch out for sites that are violating a company or game rules to sell you things. If they are willing to break the law then they are most likely going to scam you too. In particular buying things at a huge discount or from small foreign sites with no seller certifications.

What is the practical difference between going around the law or breaking the law? Of course if you break the law, and if there is policeman or whoever can catch you, you might "go to jail". But if you break the law, you don't it in front of a policeman...
