Is AMNESTY CHARITY fraud?

• Monthly or Annual Subscription Fees: Customers may inadvertently sign up for a recurring membership that includes monthly or annual fees for donations or subscriptions to updates from Amnesty International.
• One-Time Donations: Some users may have made a one-time donation but forgot about it or did not realize that another charge could occur if they did not cancel.
• Merchandise or Fundraising Purchases: If a user buys merchandise or participates in fundraising activities, they might see charges for those transactions.
• Event Tickets: Charging can occur for tickets to events organized by Amnesty International, which include screenings, workshops, or conferences.
• Accidental Multiple Contributions: Users have reported accidentally processing multiple donations or transactions due to page refreshes or misclicks.
• Payment Method Issues: Some users experience issues where previous donation agreements get charged again if they don’t manage their payment settings properly.
• Auto-Renewal of Membership: If a customer has opted for an auto-renewal option, they may be charged without explicit notifications, leading to confusion.
• Non-Profit Service Fees: Occasionally, third-party platforms hosting donation or payment might charge fees for their services, which can appear under Amnesty International on statements.

If you see this charge and aren’t expecting it, you have various options.

First, try to contact the amnesty.org via one of the support methods we listed below and inquire about the charge. See if they will refund it and cancel any associated subscriptions you might have.

If the amnesty.org refused to issue a refund or you cannot get in touch with the company, call your bank or financial institution and open a credit card dispute. Record screenshot evidence from your prior conversations with amnesty.org, and use that to open your credit card dispute. Tell your bank or credit card issuer that you do not recognize the charge and do not recall signing up for the service.

If this sounds like too much of a hassle, you can have Chargeback do it for you.
