Just got my B of A bank statement and found that I got hit with a $4.95 unauthorized debit against my checking account.  Will INSIST the bank reverse charge, have bank cancel account number and replace with a new account number, put a fraud alert on any new account to refuse ANY internet or website charge -  OR all my current B of A accounts will be closed and a goodbye to this bank forever.

    They are the same scammers as this.  They operate under many names.

    Dispute it as FRAUDULENT with BofA, and close that account.  BofA has received a number of similar disputes, although some of their people have heard of this and some have not.  Apparently, if you put thru only small fraudulent charges, no one will do anything about it, and these people have dialed right in on that opportunity.

    I have just come accross (on 2-27-2008) a similar fraudulent debit by the same outfit on my bank statement.  It was for $4.95, with the transaction on 2-21-2008.  I am in Iowa.  I do intend to dispute and have it removed.

    Just called B of A with $4.95 charge while it was still in pending charges - just made today - from outfit called smartemarket inc. We are in PA. Our account now closed with fraud filed and signing papers for them to go after them regardless of dollar amount. Upset how our number got used like this in first place! Best thing we ever did is to get email for every charge made on our account! That was how we were warned and no business with this company. Have to do those things!

    Same here.  I jeust received a $4.95 charge from smart market.com on my account also.  Trying to leave them messages/emails and get a response is worthless.  I'm goin to file a complaint with the BBB and close the account.
