I like to call it the Wilson Technologies scan. Somehow an organization got hold of thousands of people credit card numbers and ATM accounts and charged MANY people either $9.95 or $12.95 for something labeled Wilson Technologies OR possibly other labels. On the statement you get a phone # to call which is 636-234-0932 and you get a Voicemail box that is full. Many credit card companies think it is a couple of companies that actually have the name Wilson Technologies but it is not. These poor companies have been receiving literally hundreds of calls from angry customers thinking it was them who charged the card. Look HERE---->http://www.wilson-tech.com/cc.htm

Another website that you credit card company might refer you to is THIS----->http://www.wilsontechnologies.us/

Both are incorrect. I'm not sure how they've gotten my credit card information but everyone PLEASE check your credit cards for any suspicious charges you DID NOT make. Many people miss this charge because it is so small. I was about to let it go until it bothered me and I just had to find out what it was all about. One thing lead to another and here I am warning my fellow Focaljet members about this scam. Here is a thread that shows you hundreds of people complaining.

If you have been hit with this scam, IMMEDIATELY call your card company and talk to the fraud team. They will immediately dispute the charge and issue you a new card with a new #. Many people have been closing their accounts. I'm really freaked out about this but luckily I caught it. People can be the DEVIL. I am going to try and contact the FBI or FTC about this since this seems to be an international scam and is happening to thousands of people.

UPDATE: I just got off the phone with the FBI office in Downtown Chicago and an agent referred me to a government website that deals with these types of cases. So if anyone has been hit with this, please go to this website and file a complain. ----->http://www.ic3.gov/
