Recieved a bogus email regarding payment via credit card

On May 14th I received two email notifications that appeared to be from Verizon about my bill.  It stated that there was a problem with my credit card and my service would be suspended by the 16th if nothing was done.  When I attempted to click on the link in the email my anti-virus software notice an issue, so I did not go any further and just ignored both emails.  When I look at the sender the address was not something that appeared to be from Verizon but a person and the source showed it was a "Hotmail" account.  The main reason I wasn't concerned is I don't pay by credit card.  Be careful some one is trying to get spam into your system with these emails.  The data within the email has since disappeared and the email is now just a small black box with an x in it.

  • Nephew used bogus email account(used valid credit card)

    I am trying to help my Nephew to regain his previous purchases in iTunes.
    When he received his iPod Touch last year, a friend helped him setup his account using a bogus email address. However, he did use a valid credit card and was able to purchase music, movies, tv shows and apps. Everything was working, he was able to sync his Touch without any issues. When he bought an iPhone and tried to sync/transfer his library, he kept receiving "incorrect password, please retry".
    The issue is he needs a new iTunes account. But, he doesn't want to lose his purchases
    All of the pruchases are still on his iPod Touch and Macbook Air.
    Does anyone have any advice or a suggestion?
    Thanks in advance!

    edit: I should add that the bogus email account was used as his iTunes id.

  • Making a Payment via Credit Card

    So I don't use paypal a lot and I only had to recently when it came to purchasing certain things for my study abroad trip. So I need to make a payment to PayPal and tie off my credit balance. In the past I remember simply paying the amount with my attached credit card, but for some reason when I go to payment, it is not listed as a payment option. How can I pay with my credit card because I DO NOT want to attach my bank account information and also CAN NOT because I don't have the required informatio with me while I'm abroad. Thank you

    This is how PayPal uses ones funding sources, don't know if that's helps you figure things out or not: PayPal will first look at your PayPal Account balance, if you have insufficient funds, PayPal will then take the funds from your Bank Account. PayPal will do an instant transfer from your bank account assuming you have a current linked and confirmed credit card.  If the card is not current or no card, then the transfer from your bank account to pay for the purchase can take a few days, possibly up to 4. If you have a credit card and no bank account, then the credit card will be used. This all happens assuming you don't elect to choose a funding source. Note, If you have both a bank account and credit card, you can choose to pay with your credit card on the PayPal Checkout screens by using the pay with another source option. There you can select your card from the dropdown. It is possible to pay using the funds in your Account balance and the remainder with a credit card however, you must first elect to pay with your credit card. Your available balance will be used up and the remainder is charged to your card. As this now looks like you've sent a single payment, you remain eligible for Buyer Protection. You would not be eligible for Buyer Protection, if you paid for the item with two separate transactions. What you cannot do is split a single payment between 2 bank accounts, 2 credit/debit card accounts or a bank account and a credit/debit card account. In addition, you cannot split a single payment between 2 PayPal accounts.

  • Outgoing payment via credit card

    Hi,
    We recently implemented SAP Business one and I have no idea how to handle the credit card transactions when we payout our vendors using Amex. How does SAP handle the credit card transactions, paying to the vendor and payingback to Amex. Can somebody help me.
    Thanks.
    Abdul...

    Hi Abdul,
    When you get the vendor invoice, create your own purchase invoice.
    1 Then go to Banking Outgoing payment. Search for the Vendor, it brings up the open invoices. Select the invoice, then right click to choose Payment Option or the Money bag icon on the top tool bar.
    2 From the payment screen choose the Cheque Tab and enter the amount and Click on Add. A check number of 0 means, it picks up the next number from banking setup during check printing. Automatically a check has been created.
    3 Now go to banking ->Checks for payment, and pull up the last record. You can see your check that is ready for printing.
    Note: Housebank and matching accounts need to be defined first.

    Why Adobe don't have PAYPAL for Asian customers????
    Please help!!!!!

    I normaly purchase via. Amazon who are please to accept my payment.
    Is Amazon USA now shipping software to international customers? In the past it would not do so and for LR2, 3 and 4 I used the "workaround" of having the disk sent to my sister in the US who would then email me the registration key. For the update to LR5 I discovered that the price at my local Adobe agent was only $10 more than the US price and decided that buying from Amazon was not worth the hassle.

    Hi naderanissi
    This is just a user - to - user support forum so no one can help you with payments.
    The Apple Store accepts different forms of payments in different countries. If you do not have the option to pay with a debit card then you must choose another form of payment.
    Try calling Apple at the phone number that appears in your Apple Online Store.

  • HT201359 Can I pay off my App Store past due balance from a game ex.(candy crush) using an iTunes card or do I have to pay via credit card/PayPal?

    Can I pay off my App Store past due balance from a game ex.(candy crush) using an iTunes card or do I have to pay via credit card/PayPal?
    I Have a past due balance from
    buying gems from a game I played since my paypal account cant cover it I can no longer download any apps til the bill is paid I have already purchased an iTunes card that comes with redeem code. Did I buy the wrong card or is it possible to pay bill using itines card ?

    Prepaid cards or gift certificates should clear the balance, yes. You could also put in a credit card to pay off the balance, then remove the card information once the balance has been cleared.

    You don't say where you are. Apple's Help pages for the USA store say:

    American Samoa
    Armed Forces Africa
    Armed Forces Americas
    Armed Forces Canada
    Armed Forces Europe
    Armed Forces Middle East
    Armed Forces Pacific
    Guam
    Northern Mariana Islands
    Palau
    Puerto Rico
    U.S. Virgin Islands
    In the U.S., we accept:
    American Express
    Discover
    MasterCard
    Visa
    (end quote). The bank actually issuing a card such as Visa or MasterCard is immaterial.
    In the UK Apple accepts
    VISA

    both credit and debit cards.

    I made an in app purchase and the payment did not go through due to lack of funds. Now I am trying to change the payment option (credit card) but it is not accepting it. 
    Please help! thanks in advance.

    I am desperate right now. I'm not sure if I got myself into some real trouble since I got the in-app and it works fine, but the purchase did not show up. It usually asks ms if I want to pay 2.99 and I would press "yes," but this time it did not ask and I feel like I got this app without paying for it. please any advice!?

  • Vendor Payments using Credit Card

    We are trying to use credit cards as a payment method in F110 for vendor payments. Does anyone have any documentation or please share your experiences on paying vendors using credit card?
    Process would be : Pay vendors using Corporate credit card and then pay credit card company.

    I would set up a GL account for the credit card company and use it like a bank account, assigning it to the payment method credit card in bank determination in FBZP. Then you can use F110 to clear the vendor items and credit the credit card account. You probably pay the credit card company by direct debit so this can be posted aginst the GL account directly from the bank statement.

  • FPY1 - Payment on Credit Card

    Hi dudes,
    FPY1 will be running on background for definitely (unless debug mode), is it correct ?
    Now I am facing a problem. If I need to execute it in payment mode Credit Card, I need the "enter credit card data" interface to be prompt out. However, running FPY1 is background is impossible to trigger the call out screen on entering credit card data.
    So, is it there is no possibility for me to get the credit card data from user input? is it any other user exit for me to modify the 'Payment Data' tab in order to get those credit card info ?
    Thanks for the helps in advance. 
    Cheers,
    Isaac.

    Unfortunately I can't. I don't work for Adobe and have no visibility as to what may be happening. You should reach out to the support team through the second link I provided. After you select any option from the drop down menu, there is an I still need help button. Click that and you should be able to start a chat session with someone at Adobe.
