Description

Scammer said we were over-billed on our merchant service account. They could not say what company we use for our services, because they work for many processors. They said we were charged more than the "standard processing rate" of 2.20%. The scammer identified her name as Kris and had somewhat of a hispanic accent. The caller wanted to see if the $850 had credited to my last month merchant statement yet. I told them it had not. It's also important to note that I do NOT have a merchant services account but I do sell these services through our processor Paysafe (Paysafe.com). It's terrible that business owners get these calls and they turn into expensive scams and lease agreements. They take baby steps along the way - but it turns out to be expensive when you digitally sign their paperwork. BEWARE!!
