Calls to 516-538-1616 & 516-569-5390 went straight to voice mail, so I had to leave numerous messages to no avail. I’ve alerted my bank’s fraud department. I had to close my account to prevent future charges.
Do not use this merchant. Do not buy anything from Classiccloseouts.com. They are fraud!!!!! I’ll report them to the authorities tomorrow.

| 1. Written by VB, on 17-10-2008 19:47 I too was a victim of Classic Closeouts fraud. They charged my card twice for $69.99 and once for $79.99. Tried to call and can only get voicemail. I disputed with my credit card company and they investigated and sent me CC's response. CC said "the transaction originally transpired in response to a membership enrollment for which I was enrolled. The membership enrollment invitation was e-mailed to the customer and the customer specifically physically selected which program they desired to enroll." It went on to say that the invitation was sent only to Thirdfree.com and classiccloseouts.com existing customer base, and typically to customers that had historically placed more than 3 orders annually. I have never heard of thirdfree.com and can only remember ordering from classiccloseouts.com once several years ago. There was a lot more BS in the letter. It also said "we are sure the cardholder will accordingly validate this charge and disregard the dispute". I am disputing the charge again and would like to start a class action lawsuit aginst them for fraud. Anyone else interested? |
