Fit and Slim X

I too was charged $49.95 to be deducted from my account 7/9/14.
After calling 8772516879 the man asked for my debit card numbers! They assured me they would remove the charge and my bank will if they don't. in the mean time I have to wait for a new debit card. :/ Just a note I did purchase clothes from the Holister website as well as JC Penneys that day...

Saw the charge, called my card provider, canceled the charge and the card, initiated a fraud investigation!

$74.86 appeared on my checking account as a pending charge. I called their number and they said it was for an online purchase of diet products. They also said my billing address match their info so there was nothing they could do since are a third party provider for billing services. They noted that there customer would offer a free bottle of product if I didn't cancel my order. This is a scam. I told them that I already cancelled this debit card and reported this charge as fraud with my bank. They quickly changed their tune and said since the order wasn't shipped yet, they would cancel my order and not bill my card. The pending charges would drop off in a day or two. If a company puts a pending card on your charge, it isn't fraud until they actually submit the charge, so by not following through they prevent having a charge back and fraud claim.

Fit And Slim X hit my account for $49.95 but my bank was on it -however, encouraged me to call directly and I got the same answer - that a 'product' had been ordered in May (today is July 8, charge went through yesterday). My bank could see the same charge was blocked in June. I can't connect the dots because I seldom by over the internet directly. What is interesting is that nothing shows up on a search for their so called product. I got a confirmation number for a refund - supposed to be in 7 to 10 business days. My bank is ready to go into 'dispute' if the refund doesn't show up.

I called into my checking acct. today (July 10,2014) and found out that $49.95 was deducted from my acct. on July 9 ,2014...I  then called the bank to see what this was for...and was told it was charged by a company called Fit and Slim.  The phone number listed  with the transaction was 18772516879. I called the number and was told that I had ordered the slimming pills on -line , back in May (But for some reason wasn't charged until yesterday. )The  lady at that number had my P.O. Box number  which is 

associated with my acct. , but not my physical address. I told her that if I would have ordered anything, I would have given my physical address to have it sent there. I asked her if my acct. was going to be charged again after this , and she said it would be charged monthly. I told her I didn't want the product and never ordered it to begin with. I also told her I never even received the product. I left her know that my bank was aware of this..and that I was going to have the bank look into the situation, and cancel my Visa acct. She then offered to refund my money within 8 to 10 days , and I asked for a confirmation number , which she gave me.

I too noticed a charge. but it was mid July when I saw it and the charge was in mid June. I too called the 1-877-251-6879. The service representative acted as if this was the first time this had happened to the company and gave me a spiel on what I had purchased. I informed him this was a well known fraud issue and that it he had not been briefed on it, I wanted to talk to a supervisor. One was not available, of course. I asked for a refund and he read the spiel again. I started to believe they were trying to keep me on the line, perhaps to caller ID me. I was asked for the first four and last four of the credit number, which I gave, since it cancelled in the morning and has a block on it now. He had my name and address, said the order was through fitandslimx.com and tried to start the spiel again. I asked what carrier my shipment went out with. He became confused. I reminded him that it was a fraudulent order, but his upstanding company had no reason to believe that when the order came in, so how was the order shipped? It has been 28 days, why has whatever your product is not been delivered? He became more confused and offered to refund my charge in 7-10 days. I asked for a non-877 number to call back on, to verify my refund was coming and my information removed from their system. He then gave me my cancelation number and my refund number. I asked for a non-877 number again, which he said was against policy. I asked for a name, which he spouted just fine. Then I asked to confirm my cancelation number and refund number and he hesitated and I read of a number that was not correct for both and he verified the bogus numbers were what he first gave me. If you called these people at the suspiciously provided phone number, and did not have caller ID blocked, you have given them more information. Do not call them. Go to your bank, cancel your card, report the fraud. Check your credit at one of the three credit check sites. Look for new credit cards opened in your name. I firmly believe the fake order was a social engineering tactic to get more information for the purposes of identity theft by getting you to call that number.

I had a charge on my account for $74.86 for some product I didn't buy, a fitandslimX. This company said I ordered this product, which I did not, that it was on subscription. I know I didn't order it as I am unemployed at the moment and have NO income and can't afford anything extra. The company even had my old last name and old address which I haven't used for a year. This is definitely fraud. When talking with the customer service guy -- from a call center in India -- he said he would check to see if he could get the shipment stopped and get a refund. When he came back on the line he told me there was a failure in the refund and it had something to do with their IT department. He told me I had to call them back in 7 to 10 days to see where my refund stood. I told the guy he better have my money back in my account by this coming Monday (today is Saturday) or I would report them for fraud to whomever I could and if they bounced anything in my account because of this fraudulent charge they would be refunding me more that the original $74.86 -- not like he cared.
