My Diet Patches Fraud On A Company Credit Card. Ripoff! Kinley Park Illinois
I am an office manager at a private college and order quite frequently over the web. But recently while looking over my credit card expense report, I came across a debit from Diet-Prod800-901-1182. I did not have a clue as to what this was. I called the number and it was My Diet Patches. Someone apparently obtained my company credit card information and ordered diet patches for $157.00. Most of the stories I have seen regarding My Diet Patches have been where people have ordered samples and they have charged the card. I DID NOT ORDER ANYTHING. They gave the company an email address which does not belong to me.
I have turned this debit over to the credit card fraud department and it will be dealt with. I am glad to have found this site as it makes me more aware of how people can get access to your personal information. I was also told by the company that they gave my work address as the SHIP TO address. I would assume that no samples or product will arrive as I am assuming that My DIET PATCHES.com somehow scammed my credit card information.
Hope they close them down soon!

I received a package today from My Diet Patches. There wasn't any type of shipping receipt or any order information in the package at all. I promptly shipped them back (with a very nasty letter) and also with a return receipt acknowledgement to make sure they can't say they didn't receive them. I cancelled my credit card so whoever intercepted my ordering information from the web will not be able to order anything else. I found a press release on the web about this Fradulent company.
