EmtHipple Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 OK, might just be my luck, but the other day I was at the in game store for war thunder and was going to buy a few gold eagles( I know, I'm impatient what can I say) it was only $6. Well my card was denied and I come to find out that VISA's anti fraud protection program is registering those transactions as fraudulent. No real big deal till you factor in that my bank account is tied to that card and VISA to my bank that account fraud was suspected and they locked my account down.....pissed me off when I was trying to buy groceries for the week and couldn't. I will be doing all online transactions through paypal or green dot cards from now on. Just wanted to share and maybe save some of you from the same BS. See ya in the skies. Quote
Leader RedBaird Posted April 12, 2014 Leader Posted April 12, 2014 My first words when reading this were, "SON OF A b***!" I had $318 of fraudulent charges on my MasterCard, but I was still able to use my ATM card during the few days it took them to get a new card to me. Your case of false false charges is a real Pisser!

MaKy Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 Sorry to hear this emt, I had my account locked after using my partners card instead of mine. I had to email and explain that I had permission. Anyway other than that I never had a problem buying eagles. Hope it works as it should next time around. Hope to see you in w.t soon. Quote
