I was just doing some online banking, only to find four charges that didn't add up. These aren't your little dollar or three charges you don't remember. These were $79.95 dollar charges. From a CIC Credit Monitor 8002202626. I know for a fact neither myself nor my wife agreed to these charges.

The run down.

I am going to be calling these guys first thing in the morning. They are already identifyed on rip off report.com as a scam. So I went ahead and notifyed my bank with all applicable information. I also told them to go ahead and get the fraud report paperwork ready. I notifyed my local attorney, the BBB is next, and then on to the FTC, and CA's Attorney General. Then I will contact local law enforcement about a new scam alert. Then depending on how the phone call is handled tomorrow with this group of scam artists I may have to work up to the CEO of this company. I will be recording my conversation with them tomorrow. If anybody has a handy trick to go from audio casset to electronic I'd like to hear it.
I hate when things like this happen to anybody. More so at all. But at least I know how to handle this quickly.

People check your checking accounts for a cic creditmonitor 8002022626 w/$79.95 charge. If it might be helpful I'll write a tut on cleaning up from this type of theft. The only part that puzzles me however. The charges show as ATM charges. How did I manage to use my ATM in CA when I live in the midwest. I will keep you guys posted as this progresses.

Once again this is a heads up.
