I took out the live links to prevent future users from clicking on them out of curiosity.

Do you have any proof of your accusations?

Yes, Wire sent to their croonies for a corporation and merchant account. Money received at their bank account at a US bank and no corp or merchant account. No communication, a fake API they tried to install on the web page, Their "procesor" optimax systems: They disappeared too. Any of those contacts above. Somebody could call to see who they get. We get nobody. No money back. Nada. 834 Ocean Drive, Point Pleasant, NJ. No such address, according to business groups in the area or the Point Pleasant Sheriff Dept.
Besides all the documentation sent to Municipal, State and Federal authorities in the US, thatīs about it.

As per the Ocean County NJ. Dept. of Consumer Affairs:

"It appears that the address listed for the contact person in your paperwork is bogus"

By their grammar use, it seems like they are "bogus" as well.

The site doesn't appear to be up anymore. I would suggest that you file a report with the local BBB, not that it does much but at least it alerts other people as to this company.

Default high-risk-merchant.ner ~VS~ HighRiskMerchant.com - There is a difference !

Hello to everyone at Charge Back Forum - I just registered a few moments with the intention of replying to a post just a few paragraphs below this original message - it has been brought to my attention that there are several members of this forum that have complained about a UK based high risk processor that has or had a website URL high-risk-merchant.net - This is NOT OUR WEBSITE but we are eroneously being associated to this by what our staff is convinced are slanderous competitors trying to defame our good name and company reputation - and thus are using this forum as a tool or wepon in-order to inflict damages on our well established and reputible organization.

We infact own a similar domain called High-Risk-Merchant.com and have been the legal registrants of this domain name since January 31, 2006

Anyone can do a WhoIs Lookup and see that our company is a registered Wisconsin LLC - and has its offices located in Franklin, Wisconsin - USA - that is a long way from the UK or Miami Florida !

On the other hand the high-risk-merchant.NET was registered in Miami Florida and it's ownership is hidden - OURS IS NOT - LOOK IT UP AND DO SOME UNDERWRITING BEFORE JUMPING IN HERE AND SLANDERING !

If any one here on this forum has any questions or needs to clarify that we are real, and are doing business in the US & Offshore please feel free to go to
High Risk Merchant Account - No Up Front Fees ! and contact us - We have a toll free USA Telephone Number, if you care to email us you can either use our contact form on any of our websites at: Merchant Account Services Gateway - Advertise Here!

Also, for a matter of clarification, we are also the proud owners/operators of:
High Risk Merchant Account - OffShore Merchant Account - Credit Card Processing

Anyone may also contact us there bu using our Toll Free USA Telephone # or our contact Email Form.

We do answer our telephones during normal business hours: 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM Central Standard Time - You can also leave a voice message and your call will be returned promptly by the first agent that is available ( usually less than 30 minutes)

Here is our complete company name and contact information:

Alltech Distributors LLC
