BBB warns of new online shopping scam after cards repeatedly declined
If your credit card is declined, you might want to check your account.
Jessie with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) joined NTV to give some tips and help on how to avoid this scam.
According to the BBB, the scam works by when you try to order online and you get the “your card did not go through for some reason” error. After trying another card and getting the same error message you call your bank and find out you’ve been charged more than you anticipated for the purchase. That’s when you realize the website you were shopping on was a scam.
For more information on this scam, you can watch the video above.
