Mysterious charges of about $65 to $68 from iEarn, LLC, Coppell, TX, are turning up on credit card and bank accounts across the U.S., according to recent complaints to the Better Business Bureau. Some complaints allege that accounts have been charged more than once.  Now the business is operating as Success Funding Now.

“The BBB urges consumers to check their credit card and bank accounts frequently for any unauthorized charges,” said Jeannette Kopko, spokesperson for the BBB serving Dallas and Northeast Texas. “The unexpected and unexplained charges from iEarn, LLC, now operating as Success Funding Now, are not just an inconvenience to the consumers whose accounts have been charged. The BBB is concerned that the charges may be fraudulent.”

A woman in St. Paul, MN, complained: “A bill of $65.32 appeared on my credit card statement … I have never heard of let alone done business with this company and wonder where they got my credit card information. I am disputing the transaction through the credit card company but it concerns me that I have never heard of this company before yet they are billing me for what???”

The first complaint was filed with the BBB serving Dallas and Northeast Texas in late July, 2010, and a month later there are 19 complaints. The complaints are from California, Indiana, Kansas, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio, Utah, and Wyoming. The BBB sent the complaints to the business, but so far there’s no response from the business. iEarn, LLC, now operating as Success Funding Now, is not a BBB Accredited Business. The business has a BBB rating of F, on a scale from A+ to F.

The BBB offers tips for dealing with unauthorized charges on credit cards or bank accounts, starting with: (1) Contact your credit card company to dispute the unauthorized charge. For an unauthorized debit on your bank account, contact your bank. You may want to consider reporting the charge as fraud to your credit card company or bank, and to your local police department. (2) Continue to keep an eye on your account. Additional unauthorized charges could turn up.
