When balancing my checkbook the other day I noticed an odd check number in the debit column for the amount of $29.95. Since the check number was in no way from my account I became curious and contacted my bank. They wrote back stating that the company who submitted the charge was Alliance and said they could be reached at 877-886-0144.

So I called Alliance and was told that they are a "payment verification company" and the charge was for a "web access" purchase but couldn't tell me the company it originated from. I hung up, called my wife to make sure this wasn't a legitimate charge. She knew nothing about it. I then called Alliance back and demanded to know who initiated this charge and how they obtained our checking account info. They said they only had the IP address of the company, which they gave me, and quickly offered me a refund which would take up to 30 days.

I then called my bank and explained the situation. They said they could not look up a company by the IP address. They told me to wait for the refund. If it does not come, then I can fill out a form and they will dispute the charge with Alliance. Phew!!! What a mess! I asked the bank if they would refuse any more charges from Alliance and they said there would be a $32.00 fee to do so. Another scam! That's more than the amount Alliance stole from me.

If there is any justice left in this great country of ours would someone please point it out to me?
