Is SMBS Transaction fraud?

• Subscriptions: Users may subscribe to services offered by SMBS for monthly or annual fees, which will result in recurring charges.
• One-time Purchases: Some customers report charges for one-time purchases such as software, tools, or other digital products sold on the SMBS platform.
• Trial Period Conversions: Users who sign up for trial periods often find that their accounts convert to paid subscriptions automatically if not canceled in time.
• Service Fees: Some reports indicate charges related to specific services rendered, like payment processing or transaction fees, especially for business users.
• Account Upgrades: Upgrading to a premium account or adding features can incur additional charges.
• Unrecognized Transactions: Confusion can arise from charges listed under 'SMBS' that users do not immediately recognize, leading them to question the fees.
• Late Fees: Customers who miss payment deadlines may incur late fees or penalties, contributing to higher-than-expected charges.

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

First, try to contact the smbs.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 smbs.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 smbs.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.
