MWI*simple Escapes2; MWI*galleria Usa ripoff dishonest charges added to my charge account Nationwide, USA
I have received 2 charges on my credit card on 6/22/2004, for $1.00 each from MWI* SIMPLE ESCAPES2, and MWI*GALLERIA USA. I have notified my credit account that I dispute these two charges.
I have no idea how these people got my credit card information.
Currently I am disputing these charges with my account.

I noticed charges on my credit card statements with the description MWI * Galleria USA. I called the number on my statement (1-800-411-8104) and I spoke to someone about the nature of the charges. I was told that it was an online discount program to malls and retail stores.
I asked them to cancel the membership and refund the charges for the last three months. They refused. I called my credit card company to dispute the charges and apparently, I did not have to be responsible for the charges and they removed the charges from my credit card account and they blocked any further charges from this company.
I suggest that anyone who has been ripped off by Member Works, Inc. should dispute the charges with the Card company.

I've been scammed!! I have been charged $139.95 for what? I have unauthorized use/charges to my visa and have no idea who or what this galleria usa is or does. I am an honest hard working man and don't appreciate my money being stolen/scammed.

There was an earlier post about companies that charge to credit cards without the knowledge of the consumer. A response to that post indicated that those companies should be repoarted as commiting credit card fraud. I agree that you should dispute these charges with your credit card company, but I would agree that you should contact the credit card company and file a fraud report.
