Description

Miguel Karam Bencatel Canhao, also known as Edward Sampson committed credit card fraud against me. I had previously given him access to my credit card by attempting to purchase an item with his assistance, however he claimed that my card had been declined after the attempted purchase. However, a month later, I was startled by fraud alerts from my Visa credit card provider, pointing to suspicious activities traced back to Sao Paulo, Brazil. After checking my credit card statement, I noticed a transaction made to a company known as Rappi Rappi Brasil. Additionally, I received 3 fraud transaction alerts that were attempted purchases at a company named SA*Fastshop, whcih apparently is an electronics store in Sao Paulo.
