Is SHOP fraud?

• Subscriptions: Customers may unknowingly sign up for monthly or yearly subscriptions that result in regular charges on their accounts.
• Product Purchases: Charges can arise from actual purchases made through the shop.com website, whether for products or services.
• Membership Fees: Some users reported being charged for membership or premium services associated with their accounts.
• Auto-Renewal: Users mentioned automatic renewals for services or subscriptions that they thought they had cancelled.
• Free Trials: Individuals have noted being charged after a free trial period ended without proper cancellation.
• Shipping Fees: Additional charges might include shipping and handling fees that were not clearly disclosed at the time of purchase.
• Hidden Fees: Some customers experienced additional charges that were not apparent until they reviewed their statements.
• Third-Party Transactions: Users may see charges from third-party vendors or partners linked to their shop.com account.

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

First, try to contact the shop.com 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 shop.com 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 shop.com, 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.
