Guest guest Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Hi All, I have CC-NOw shopping cart and I'm generally satisfied with it. One option is to either allow customers to put a different shipping address than their billing address or to not. I choose a while back to allow different addresses because a lot of people prefer to get their packages at the job. Anyway, for the past 3 years I haven't had any major problems but I've recently received a couple of orders and it just doesn't sit right to me. I got a $75 order from a customer who listed a Nevada business address and wanted it Express mail. The credit card name was a company (not the customer or a spouse name) and the address was in Michigan. I thought perhaps I'm thinking to much and if CC-Now didn't question it, why should I. I shipped that order today and notified the customer via email. Later in the day, I get a $150 order shipped express to same Nevada address. But, the credit card name was a different name, another company name. And the address was in Florida! Now, red flags went up in my mind. It could be perfectly innocent and some rich lady who has businesses all over. HA! My concern is if I fill this order and she keeps ordering at this rate and these are stolen credit cards I could not be out a lot of products but also will have to return this money plus maybe fees! I don't know how to avoid this or be paranoid. I can't afford for someone down the line to tell me $2000 of the purchases were a fraudulent. Heck, I can't afford $200. Anybody here have fraudulent purchases. Any info would be helpful. TIA Nikki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 I would immediately report it to the credit card company if it looks suspicious. They will do the checking for you and if they're wrong, it's their money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 It would seem to me that CC-NOw should be assuming the risk. That would be one of the reasons to go with a CC service. Visit thier site and see what thier terms are in relation to this. If they are assuming the risk, send the order! --- N Best <Nikki@...> wrote: > Hi All, > I have CC-NOw shopping cart and I'm generally > satisfied > with it.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 She's in Las Vegas. Is that southern NV? I called the # listed and it's a hotel. But the shipping address is a Company called Jus Bead It. Nikki Hmmm... if it was southern NV, I could do some checking for you.
