$39.99 My Product Perks/Epic Bodygo charge
Beware of these Scamming insects
Said I signed up when I purchased something…somewhere…from someone
The charge showed up in my online bank app as “Super Muscle Su 844-4071145 CA”. It looked like it might be a toll free number to call in Cali, so I took a chance. Got an automated voice that basically just said “someone will be with you shortly; all operators busy” — something to that affect — no mention of a company name. So I very quickly became even more suspicious.
After nearly 20 mins of waiting, a lady came on the phone who sounded Jamaican (reminded me of the old Miss Cleo commercials). I asked her what company she is with, and she wouldn’t immediately answer, but instead asked me if I was having an issue with my rewards or a charge.
So I go into the whole thing about not recognizing the charge, and wanted to know who charged my debit card and why. She said, “I don’t know what company, but it’s bc you signed up for a rewards program when you ordered something online”, and that I have 100 reward points. Knowing myself well enough to know I don’t sign up for d[censored] [censored] like that and that I always read the fine print, I told her that was BS and that I wanted to know who the company was. She said she couldn’t know, bc they offer their program to “so many people.”
I told her I don’t want their stupid rewards program and that I want it cancelled and my money back. She said she could cancel it, gave me a cancellation ID #, and proceeded to tell me I could get a 50% refund.
Mind you, I’m a retired cop, and I’ve seen a few people scammed over the years, and often the scammers aren’t super smart, so you can sometimes bluff them into doing the right thing — not bc it’s right — but self preservation. So I told her, I would contact my bank, the BBB, and the feds to launch an investigation, as well as get my money back when I had the bank reverse the charge. I explained that I didn’t ask for their program, didn’t want it, and didn’t authorize it in any way, neither directly, nor via tacit consent and that I expected ALL my money back now.
She said to hold the line again, like she did the first time when she cancelled the subscription, and then came back with a transaction ID # and advised it would go back to my account in 3-10 business days.
That said, I’ll be calling my bank next to cancel my debit card, refute the charge, and hopefully stop it from happening again that way. Obviously, the card info is still out there.
I’m sure they’ll refund it, bc in order to continue the scam, they’ll willingly lose a few to win several. Many people may not catch it right away or may not feel like fighting it, won’t know how to fight it, and will just give up and eat the charge. But in order to get paid with a card, they have to have some kind of legitimate way of being paid set up, and if the feds come knocking, there goes their golden goose. So it’s easier to loose a few bucks and rake in a bunch while you can.
I did ask her where she’s located, and she said Florida. I asked if that’s where the home office is located also, or if it’s just her call center there. She said she has no way of knowing, that she does customer service calls for several businesses and product lines. She said the name of her company is “Product Perks” and that’s all she could tell me.
Note: In order to get my refund, she asked for my first and last name, and my zip code, which I gave. This is what makes me assume they’re storing the card info somehow and why I’ll be cancelling mine.
We’ll see how this goes. I’LOL post again if I can to advise how my specific refund goes — IF it goes through, and what (if anything) happens.
Best of luck to you all.
