Description
Possible fradulent company I Purchased a Visa Gift Card through Amazon, I visited the email address provided on the back of the card, "www.giftcardmall.com/mygift," to register the card but encountered an error message that stated: "We are unable to process your request at this time. If you continue to receive this error, please contact Cardholder Services by calling the number on the back of the card." After calling, I was informed that the payments went to "Water Automation," but I did not authorize these payments. Two for $***** and one for $*****. Additionally, I learned that the site at www.giftcardsmall.com/mygift has been sold to Giftcards.com, and I should have been directed to contact them regarding this matter. It appears that the card information I entered was sent to a fraudulent company. If necessary, I did contact the FTC and the credit card company. I believe when the card information was entered, it was copied and compromised to the fraudulent company, "WaterAutomation" If contacted, FTC and the credit card company. Thank you, Linda Carry "All we need is Love."
