VISA FRAUD ALERT! LA EUROPEA in Cabo San Lucas


DO NOT USE YOUR VISA IN LA EUROPEA IN CABO!

I live in Cabo and use my VISA card very sparingly. On 11/09/02 I used my card at LA EUROPEA. On 11/14/02 my VISA company Fraud department contacted me because of strange activity. None of these charges were done by me.

POST DATE TRANS DATE AMOUNT
11/14/02 11/13/02 PLOM Y ELECT LA CURVA LA PAZ BCS? $506.98
11/14/02 11/13/02 PLOM Y ELECT LA CURVA LA PAZ BCS? $389.26
11/14/02 11/13/02 MACROTEL LA PAZ BCS? $221.60
11/14/02 11/13/02 FERRETERIA LA PURISIM LA PAZ BCS? $230.37
11/14/02 11/13/02 FERRETERIA LA PURISIM LA PAZ BCS? $253.42

11/11/02 11/09/02 LA EUROPEA LA PAZ BCS? $ 72.39

I did noticed that someone else posted on the boards last month that they had a similar experience at La Europea. I will let the owner know he has a problem.

Wow. That person got a good sting in. I'm glad you're tallking to the owner. Be sure and document the meeting and the conversation. It may come in handy later. Giving it a lot of publicity is a great idea. So many people don't say anything and then many others get stung in their turn. Take care. - Stephanie

Re


Having worked at a restaurant i know a bit about these things, the most likely problem is that one of his employees is copying the info on the cards and loading that info onto a fake card that will later be used to rip you off, contact the owner NOT the manager, the manager might me in the scam, and also contact Visa, if they have had these kinds of problems with other customers, they will send an investigator to question everybody in the establishment, if they dont dont get the offender they will deny the merchant the visa service.
