On 02/21/11 I discovered unauthorized charges made on 02/21/11 to my M/C . My statement showed 1 charge by Sem* value & another Identical charge by Sem* funsource both having the same phone# 800-475-1942. When I called the # it was answered by a real person saying "Membership Services". That was about the only thing she said that made any sense. Anyway the conversation went like this: I asked her what the charges were for. She said " You made the order last month on the phone". I have never used my card for anything on the phone and no one has access to my card but myself or so I thought. When I informed her that I didn't order anything on the phone, She said "Not you, your membership made the order". Me "Who? What membership? Her, "You made the order on the telephone". Me, "what are the charges for? What do I get for these charges?" Her, "Do you want to cancel your membership?" Me."Yes and you are issuing a refund?" Her, "Yes". Then she ended the connection. Who the hell Are they? They stole money from me! Even IF they return the money I haven't had the ability to use my money for near 24 hours now. Who knows how long it will be before it is returned or that it will be returned at all.
Should anyone have any information about the thief(s) and/or who or what agency will investigate this kind of behavior please forward the information to the support or the soon to be blog about unauthorized charges credit/debit card at the website <http://www.scottbogue.wc>
I haven't found any thing but complaints about Sem* Value/Sem* Funsource but I will.
