Fraud Shopkeepers

laker110 · 05-26-2007

I had a bad experience with my credit card. I got an i- pod and i gaye my credit card to the shop keeper to swap. That time he gave me a proper bill but after 5 monts, i came to know , that i have been cheated by him as my money was missing.
I personally advice you, make maximum number of the payments through the cash only because the risk factor reduces to large extent.

thanks for the advice...i am always skeptical of using cc in stores and other areas..as it can be very easily swiped by hackers!

It is a very good advice to pay in cash for everything but sometimes it is risky to carry a large amount of cash with you if the vendors did not accept cheque

Did he do a switch or just overcharge? Did you do a chargeback?
