View Full Version : Card processing company called about my Accu-Strut order.

I got a call on Monday from Cardservice International, a company that processes credit cards. That asked me about the purchase of two Accu-Struts (one order), if I had received it, and they even asked what it was (I said "machine parts"). I thought that was a little odd--I never received a phone call like that before, and I buy gun stuff online all the time, and usually for bigger amounts. I wonder if they are suspicious of you, kkina. :D
OK, good, they're finally getting their "review" done. CardService put me on "risk review" a short time after I opened the Accu-strut store. It seems I had the account open for some 2 years without a credit charge, then all of a sudden all these charges started coming through. They stopped transferring funds to my business account pending confirmation that it's not some criminal operation. They will be calling a few of my customers to confirm that they actually ordered products and received them (they know they're gun parts).
Sorry for the trouble. At least I can say I was investigated by CSI!
So thats what that voicemail was, I ignored it, thought it was a telemarketer. I'll give em a call back tomorrow.

Although I didn't hear from them, I do the same thing; ignore calls which I assume are from telemarketers. :lol:

Sometimes I pick up the phone and "try to sell THEM" stuff in return, just for s**ts and giggles. It`s hilarious!:lol:

I didn't think it was a telemarketer because I've never heard of them leaving messages before. I thought my card number had been stolen at first. I was rather annoyed it took more than 24 hours for the person to return the voicemail I left in my call back.

I've come to the realization that "Nadine" is a bit on the slow side. My apologies.
