Things was normal so far, until, two days latter an XBOX360 arrived at my address. Not knowing what it was, my wife accepted it. Only to find out later that it was one of the items brought using that card by someone else.

I called the CC company and told that I received one XBOX360. They told me to hold on to it for now and they will let me know.

Here is the question, since that XBOX360 was not the only thing brought from the particular website using my card (actually 3 of those was brought), why one was sent to me? I'm trying to find out the intention of sending me one. Was he/she trying to prove that I brought one for me and 2 other as gifts for other? Because companies sometimes checks the shipping address to see if it matches the card, I think by giving real address for one, the fraud was trying to defeat the purpose.

What should I do in case the CC company says that I brought the 3 units (costs about $1500)?




don't worry...CC company never asks their customers too prove anything. if you file a dispute on all your transactions then they will ask the selling company to provide tracking number which will confirm the units received. now for that there has to be a confirmation from UPS,FEDEX or DHL with your or your wife's signature. You don't have to worry about it because CC companies are also aware of this tactics frauds uses so they know what to do. Your CC will work for you to get your money back because you are their customer. You should tell them anything you are aware of it. Just incase they are not doing things in your way then get a lawyer. One of my uncle did not know he had 40,000 dollar loan and he found out when he wanted to buy a house. His mortgage broker found out her has loan and informed him and he then got a lawyer. His lawyer cleared everything. if your transaction loan amount is less than 2000 than don't worry you don't need to get no lawyer. This kind of problems are normally solved by CC companies. if you need any help email me at msalim70@gmail.com. i will try my best to guide you because i fight small cases like that everyday for my company.
