SaferWholesale Great Sports Inc salesman "Joe" Double charged, fraudulently withdrew from checking account Internet
Beware of these guys.
I was searching for a trike kit for my Harley Davidson motorcycle and found an ad for $1495 advertised as a "today only sale." I called them and spoke with "Joe" he told me that price was only good if they were paid by a check over the phone. I informed him that I didn't have that much cash available in my checking account and.... I would like to purchase the kit using two different credit cards.... he told me that if I was using credit cards.... it would cost around $200 more. He suggested that I get a cash advance from a credit card company. He said that he could reserve the sale price if I made a $100 deposit using a check by phone.... unfortunately, I did the check by phone for $100 to reserve the sale price.
I checked with my credit card outfit and found out that they wanted 23.99% APR for cash advances so, I didn't go for it.
I called "Joe back and was told that since I wouldn't do a check by phone that the price would be $1,995. , adding to that.... was extra charge for using my credit cards... the price would be $2185 if I used credit cards. I agreed to the price and gave him two different credit card numbers to split the price between the two cards.
I was told the sale went through and I would receive my trike kit in 3-4 weeks.
I logged into my bank account the next day and noticed $1995 was deducted from my account by an electronic check paid to saferwholesale!!! I then checked my credit card accounts and.... sure as heck... there was $1000 charged to each one so.... not only did they fraudulently run a e-check.... they double charged me!
I called saferwholesale immediately and was told to call back at 7:00 am the next day and talk with their fraud dept.! Well.... I didn;t wait.... I immediately called my credit union that my checking account is with as well as one of my creditcards... luckily as of today.... my credit union retrieved my funds from both my checking and credit card accounts.
I also called my other credit card company and reported fraud.... they cancelled the account and opened a new one.... luckily... I am getting my money back within a week.
Watch out for these slippery snakes!
Peace
