IEPTCS.COM charged bank account $49.95. not authorized whatesoever

IEPTCS.COM charged Visa $49.95 without authorization, unable to contact their support. The phone number is busy, a live agent never answers chat.

Report it to IThe Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) at http://www.ic3.gov/

Bank charge of $49.95 appears on my account from IEPTCS.com, tried calling their number and get a machine. Have no idea what this is. Am disputing with my bank, will cancel my debit card.

I had an alert as well from Chase about an international charge from IEPTCS.COM for $49.95. The company is supposedly based in the UK, but has an IP address coming from Brooklyn, NY. Do all of you who had this happen to you have Chase cards? Also - Has anyone recently placed an order through Ticketmaster or Stubhub in the last month? Trying to determine the connection. Thanks.

I had a debit card charge of $49.95 to IEPTCS.COM that was unauthorized. Before I could even dispute the charge the fraud department at Chase called and asked about the charge. This is an ongoing scam with this company. I'm not sure how they are getting peoples credit/debit card info but it seems to be a regular thing.

this charge showed up on my acct and it wasn't done by me.

To the poster above, I recently made a Ticketmaster purchase too. Not sure if it's connected.

Scammers on internet. 2IEPTCS.COM They stole $ 49.95 from me on my PNC credit card. I'm calling bank tomorrow.

I had this charge show up on 6/23/14, but I actually had a reversal on 6/28/14. However, I have another 49.95 charge from supremecleansekit.com, the site is a blank page, but a google snippet from their TOS shows 49.95 for 2 bottles. I've never ordered from this place. The domain WHOIS is hidden by proxy.

I too had this charge right after using a chilis app to order dinner.... Not sure if connected. Don't bother calling they put you on hold forever with annoying recording then when someone finally came on she asked me for all my personal information and then hung up on me. Called my bank to report fraud.

I just found that this happened to me on 6/22/2014. The $49.95 charge appears on my PNC VISA credit card. Customer services at my bank found a second charge from this company. The bank is removing both charges and issuing me another card. The sad thing is that I just had this VISA card replaced in March 2014 with other fraudulent charges from a different source. Is there a way to avoid these scams???

THIS IS HAPPENING TO MORE THAN JUST CHASE CARD HOLDERS - GROW FCU DEBIT CARD HERE WITH SAME PROBLEM

CHICAGO, GREAT BRITAIN AND THE PHILIPINES ARE INVOLVED IN THIS SCAM. (773) 273 - 8090 <---THIS IS THE LOCAL #

This happened to me on on 6/22/14. My bank alerted me to a 49.95 charge from IEPTCS.COM. We called the company and said that they would refund the money. If not, I can call back to my bank's claim department.

The same thing happened to me yesterday. Same company, and I also use Chase. I'm pretty sure at this point that Chases' customer information database was probably compromised and our personal info is now in the hands of these assclowns. Of course Chase would never admit to having been compromised.. that'd make them look bad. I am quite sure I was not phished, nor has anyone had access to my card. Considering this happened to everyone at about the same time, it seems likely/evident that this "IEPTCS.COM" had collected a list of targets ahead of time and then hit them all at once. How is Chase letting these charges post to the accounts if they know this company is fraudulent? Why are these charges not simply being blocked? I'm starting to think my money would be better off stored in my mattress.

My debit card was hit with this $49.95 charge - canceling card. Obvious fraud.

I noticed a $49.95 charge on my bank account (Brazos Valley School Credit Union) from IEPTCS.com. I had to cancel my card and I have to wait on my replacement card. That sucks. I have no cash on me. Gotta drive to the bank. Glad I had money and nothing bounced as a result of this inconvenience. Vengeance is mine saith The Lord!

I was notified by my credit union (Alaska USA FCU) of this same charge $49.95 from ieptcs.com. Had to close my card. I too had used my credit card at gas station and Pizza Hut.

I got this on my bank card (use PNC) I just had them close the card and issue me a new one. Sucks that I have to let the transaction go through, before I can dispute it.

Bank just got hit for $49.95 from IEPTCS.Com. I don't even know what the company is or what their business is other than stealing money from people. Bank says it's been happening a lot lately from this company. Luckily it's still in pending and the bank will clear the charge.

If you go to the site, they list support@interneteducationportal.com as the support email and 866-611-8469 as the phone number. nterneteducationportal.com also lists the same phone number, but it's not really clear what the business is.

I noticed a charge on my bank statement for $49.95 that I had not made, so notified my bank, Chase, to find out what company this was. IEPTCS.com was not a company I was familiar with and I had certainly not authorized this charge. I was told by the Customer Service representative at the bank that she recognizes IEPTCS as a company that several other customers had complained about as well. I ask her then shouldn't Chase be on alert for charges made by this company. The website offers a refund if you are not satisfied, they offer online chat, and a number you can call for help. I chose not to chat or call sensing fraudulent activity. MAKE YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS AWARE! I AM CANCELLING MY CARD!

My US Bank account was tagged late Friday evening (6-20-2014) by this same fraudulent bogus company IEPTCS.COM. Called US Bank fraud department early Saturday 6-21 while the charge of 49.95 was still pending against my us debit/check card account. They immediately cancelled my debit/check card and gave me a credit of 49.95 back to my account. However today 6-25-2014 I have had to notify them again because now there is a charge of .99 cents for an International service fee! US Bank Fraud dept. said I will be credited the .99 cents when their investigation is done. In the meantime I too will have to wait 7-10 business days for my new card to arrive! I have not bought anything online lately and I only used my card at 2 locations that Friday. Pizza hut & shop n save for I am not sure how they got my card number. I am grateful that US Bank has already credited my account with the original 49.95 that was fraudulently taken!

Contacted the CC company and the charge had already been credited back to my card by the vendor. I also had another fraud charge so I killed the card. They asked me if I filed a police report and I said no. Not much help but that's how it went for me.

I had the IEPTCS charge of $49.95 charged, then credited back, but then also got charged it again, $49.95 again, but this time under VitaminsofVitality name. That has not been refunded. Also the $1.50 foreign fee was not refunded yet.

I have the same charge on my bank account shows pending and I have no idea where it's from but I had my card canceled.

I just noticed a $49.95 charge on my account and there was a phone number on my bank statement that I called. I got a woman named Ven. She supposedly made a phone call to the company and got approval for a refund for me. She said it would show up on my acct. In 2-10 days. I asked her what this company was and she said it was called Internet Education for Cortal. I asked her what it does and she said it teaches you how to make investments. I told her I have never heard of it. You can call 866-611-8469 9am to 9pm eastern time. I guess I will see if I really do get a refund. Good luck to everyone. I hope we all get our money back!

49.95, Wells Fargo, Las Vegas, NV 6/23/14 Had to cancel my card too and I am waiting for a new one. Not sure what kind of legal steps that banks take but I sure hope they do. I am worried they just write this off as a loss and pass the costs onto the customers. I would like to see and hear about follow ups that are done.

Also I was charged $49.95 on my debit card and I did not authorized it. Also my bank shut down my card. Who can I report this to? The bank stated this was an educational site and I did use on line charge for nursing CEU's. Is there a connection?

I right away called my bank, they credited my account, but i have to cancel my card.

I'm a Wells Fargo customer. I noticed a pending transaction on Monday 6/23 for $49.95 charged by IEPTCS.COM. I looked up info about IEPTCS but could not find a damn thing. I knew I would have to wait until it posted. Today I found their website ... and this very busy page. I immediately called Wells Fargo. They confirmed the transaction originated in Great Britain.

This particular scam is very new. The only thing banks can do is terminate the card numbers and issue new ones to us. It sucks for everyone - the banks included. This is the only time I sympathize with the banks :)

There may be a common source for how the crooks got our card numbers - or it may just be a collection of hacked databases built up over time. They then waited until they had all their ducks in a row and ran thousands of transactions at once, getting as much money as they can until they have to pull the plug and run.

It will be interesting to see if something comes up in the news in the next few weeks.

FYI - I also had another charge for $49.95 a day earlier (before the IEPTCS.COM charge) from a company called supremecleansekit.com. I found their website and called the number listed and again I was told I would be refunded the whole amount in 7-10 days. We will see. I did notice that they are based in the UK.

wow! I'm disputing it (same IEPTCS>>COM) with my bank, too! $49.95 twice got new card! cant imagine how they did it,looks clever! NOT authorized, bank (arvest) called them and got put on hold, spoken to, finally and told it's pending. Big scam out there....Ill report it to the law...And, thank God for you guys at scamcall fighters and the other victims who posted here! Jesus Christ IS REAL AND HE WANTS EVERYONE TO KNOW HIM! lol,Jefre Cleveland....

Shame on Chase Bank. They knew and have known about this for days yet wait for us to call? Talk about half -ssed security. I'm looking for a new bank tomorrow.

My C.C. and Debit Card were both charged for 49.95. Never heard of these suckers. I reported it to my bank and LifeLock. This bogus company is in UK. So .... how do we get even!

I am in Southaven, Mississippi, and this happened to me. So this isn't limited to huge cities. So ridiculous! What an inconvenience.

A charge of $49.95 on 6/22/14 from IEPTCS.COM was posted on my Visa credit card. Just contacted Visa and the fraud department is investigating. This is a charge out of Great Britain. How did they get our numbers I wonder. Now I have to have a new credit card issued. We need to continually check charges to be sure this does not happen again.

I had the $49.95 charged from VitaminsofVitality and also from IEPTCS. Both these companies are scamming people all over the US and from all different banks (Compass, Wells Fargo, Credit Unions, Chase, etc....). And a $1.50 bogus charge in there as well (test charge??). For me I have Compass Bank, I'm in Texas. I've already had to cancel and replace two credit cards this year already from scams, one was the Target scam. This is disgusting. It's being reported all over the internet, surely they can stop this!!!

I too was charged on 6/23 $49.95. Chase credited the charge. Hope they catch these thieves!!

Yeah i got hit by these people on july 16th. And yes theyre still out there. http://interneteducationportal.com/

I had a charge from this company on my card as well, Chase. It was refunded then a charge from hcincsupport.com showed up for the exact same amount and started charging me a monthly fee of $49.95 because it came up again the next month. I reported it as fraud and have to get new cards. Whatever you do don't trust that it is solved with a refund. Declare it fraud to your bank and get new cards. It is worth the hassle of them charging you under a new company later.

My card was hit on 6/21. My bank is Arvest. They are reversing the charge and issuing a new card. I've read all of the posts about where people have used their cards and the banks their cards are issued to. There is no connection I can see as to where the numbers were stolen. My suspicion is that they were taken at different locations and times. The asshats at IEPTCS bought the numbers at one of those online sites that sell them and hit everyone at the same time. What makes me the angriest is the feeling that they will walk away unpunished.

I also had a $49.95 charge from IEPTCS & multiple $1 international fees show up on my visa debit card account in early July (Commerce Bank in Wichita, KS). Charge was reversed and new cards issued, but I just recently discovered another fraudulent charge for $49.95 from topformcarnitine.com. This is maddening!!

I had a charge from IEPTCS.com for $49.95 but 7 days later the same IEPTCS.com put $49.95 back into my account. I have a TCF debit.

Had same thing happen... hit with an unauthorized charge from IEPTCS.COM for $49.95 on my Visa (wells fargo) on the 23rd. Charge has to post before the will credit. Had to cancel card... Now I'm 7-10 business days w/o a card. I was not happy that my bank was grilling me over my card usage as if the problem was me. It was painfully annoying having to play 20 questions with them. You would think that their would be a database that the banks a would have access to to share reported scam charges, so that when one of their customers get hit with a charge from one of those companies that it flags the charge.

My June Bank of America statement contained a fraudulent charge from IEPTCS.co for $49.95. I reported the transaction to BAC who reversed the charge and issued me a new card. Now my July statement shows the same charge on July 24 on my NEW card. I'll have to repeat the process and get another card. It's obvious that there is a hack somewhere if they can get my new number within 30 days. Beware everyone.

This happened to me this past Saturday 6/21/2014. Monday I called the number posted on the website after consulting with my bank. After letting it ring for 10 minutes I finally recieved an answer. Got some foreign sounding woman. I could hardly understand or hear her. I explained I had recieved the charge and that it had been done fraudulently. She claimed the purchase had been made using my cvv. I asked her what ieptcs was and she claimed it was a one time fee to provide business tips and strategies. I told her I did not own a business and asked for a refund. Fortunately I was refunded the 49.95. However there was a second transaction that had occurred for that Saturday as well for .40 cent. It claimed to be a pos charge. Im glad to have the majority of my money back. I also cancelled that debit card Monday 6/23.

I also found this charge in my account tonight. I have recently used the card to order books online. I'm not sure if the site I used was breached. This is very frustrating! Chase is looking into it, but I had to cancel my card.

So whoever runs this company, business or whatever just made a few thousands if not more ripping people off and my bank is going to "file a claim" loooooooooooooooooooool.

When I called the phone number for the charge, they told me an account as opened with my info in order to make purchases. The business email they gave me is support@vgltdhelp.com The site http://vgltdhelp.com/ indicates they are the UK company. The phone number on their site is the same one I called for the charge, but they stated they're just a call-center for thousands of companies.

I am in Anchorage, AK and my company credit card through Wells Fargo was charged $49.95 on 6/22/14 as well as a $0.50 "Border Trans Fee." I was also told this was a charge from Great Britain. WF immediately issued a new c/c number and gave me a credit on this new c/c, but ended up reversing it because the very same day, ieptcs.com refunded my account (the $49.95 only). I'm not sure why they did this, maybe so people won't close their accounts and they plan to charge even more (by the looks of the comments, people are getting additional charges by a bunch of fake fitness websites), but this is definitely fraud, I'm hoping it's shut down by now!

I was notified by my credit union (Alaska USA FCU) of this same charge $49.95 from ieptcs.com. Had to close my card. I too had used my credit card at gas station and Pizza Hut.

Wow, looking at all the posts over the last week, this is widespread. I, too, got hit with the $49.95 charge plus an international transaction fee. I'm a Bank of America customer and they quickly resolved the issue/refunded my money. Fraud agent on the phone suggested this might be related to the eBay hacking not too long ago(?) No way to know for sure at this point but changed info on that account to be safe.

I had IEPTCS charge and then had a Multivitamins.com charge and then a Alphamuscle.com charge each for 49.95. Those charges were spread out over 45 days.

Same charge on our credit card. Bank called us (PNC) to let us know. so now we will have to cancel. Already went through this when Target was compromised .Called the number and a recording said they were open 9-9 est and this was at 8:50 p.m. Told me I could get website assistance but no website. Everyone seems to be hit at the same time.

I got the mysterious charge on my wellsfargo debit about a week ago. They refunded me my $49.95 and did an investigation. I checked back the site and noticed the ieptc.com web page no longer exists.

Charged to my USAA debit card for $49.95 tonight (7/5/14) as pending. Called USAA and they froze the card and will refund the money. New card being issued.

I used the card only in normal places online except for a recent AllState transaction. Used the card driving from GA to NC at several gas stations. No idea where it was compromised.

I, too, was charged the $49.95 from IEPTCS.COM on June 21st. On July 1st IEPTCS.COM credited me back the $49.95 automatically. I did not call at all to have them do that. After seeing all of these posts, I canceled my card. I then get a call from the Chase Fraud Department today and another charge of $49.95 was attempted but declined because I stopped the card. This time the charge came from PremiumTrimControl,com. Isn't it strange that Premium Trim Control can be abbreviated PTC, and PTC is part of the IEPTCS.COM site as well? Good luck everyone!

This is not just Chase. Happened on my BOA debit. Fortunately BOA identified it as fraud. I just yesterday got notification from BOA that the company (?) is refunding the charge. I guess we'll see.

I also purchased tickets through ticketmaster so maybe that is the connection. I tried to search their website, which is no longer active and their phone number gives an immediate busy signal. The company did issue a full credit within a week but will closing all my accounts and will not be making online purchases in the future.

Have same $49.95 charge on my U.S. Bank card 6/23/14. Plus .99 foreign exchange fee. At first I thought maybe it was a mistake and someone could have typed in the wrong card number by mistake but now that I realize it is a case of rampant fraud, I'm calling back to cancel my card.

Same charge in 06/22/2014 in a Citibank card in Spain

I have an account with a local credit union based out of Madison, WI. I too have been hit with the $49.95 charge and the $.40 international service assessment. Do not think this is just major banks. It's everywhere. I have not purchased anything off the internet in months and months so to link this to a recent purchase for me is completely unrealistic. I'm sure a database was compromised somewhere.

IEPTCS.Com charged 49.95 to my Visa along with a 1.50 fee...called bank and they opened a fraud case. The charge was made in a foreign country.

IEPTCS.Com charged 49.95 to my Visa along with a 1.50 fee...the rep said the charge was made in a foreign country; GB. I called the number and it tried to get me to press 1 to win a Walmart giftcard. I went to the site, then a notification popped up on my computer about a Trojan spyware tried to break in my computer. I called my bank, PNC, and they opened a fraud case and replaced my card. They said the charge was made on 6/21 and the only place I went was to a Mexican Restaurant & Trader Joes. My best guess is that someone at the restaurant used one of those scam machines or that someone got this information earlier and decided to run all of our cards at the same time. In either case, warn those you know.

An unauthorized charge for $49.95 from IEPTCS.COM also showed up on my Visa card on 06-22-2014. Called Visa and had to cancel my card. It's good to check your account activity daily. It is so irritating that our accounts can get hi-jacked so easily!!

Called this number and got an answer. They said they were replacing the money that was unauthorized to be taken out of my account. The foreign girl told me that they are a 3rd party. What a bunch of scammers. Doubt this will stop. I totally shut off the card they used.

To people who mentioned ticketmaster, i also purchased tickets from there and was charged the 49.95

I had $49.95 posted on my Chase debit card on 6/23/14 by IPETCS.COM 8666618469. I called Chase and they have cancelled my card. I was told there were a lot of the same fraudulent charges. I never carry my debit card and use it only once a month for my tithe for my church. I have no idea how or where they got my debit card information.
