I just checked my account as well and found that witifile.com debited my account for $3.70. What scam artist. Everyone be very careful of this and report as soon as possible and have you card blocked and closed. The persons responsible should be caught and put in jail.

May be the first charge in a cramming scam, a card thief "pinging" your account to check it before making larger charges, or a "small charges" fraud racket (often coming from eastern Europe or Russia).
Complaints appear to start in October 2011, and are showing numberous complaints of fraudulent charges to both credit cards and checking accounts.
Website appears to be a file upload site charging $2.40, $3.70, $5.10, $8.20 for 1 month to 12 months. May have sloppy card verification that makes them attractive to card thieves, card pingers, or traders in contraband file data with access to stolen card numbers.
Even if you only see a small unauthorized charge, this is often a warning sign that some scammer may have your account number, and be testing it ("pinging") before cramming on much larger charges. Take ALL unauthorized charges seriously.
Immediately contact your bank to dispute any unauthorized charges as fraudulent, and close your account or block your card number to prevent additional fraudulent charges. your bank can reverse charges if you dispute within 60 days of the statement date of the statement showing the disputed charge, under FRB Reg. E or FCBA.
