Greatings, Peatlings :) : I've recently discovered a fraudulent checkcard charge in my checking account and I'm wondering if it could be tied to my purchase of Blue Sky Peptides a month ago.
So far there are two of us on this forum (me and @HDD) who have found fraudulent checkcard charges in our accounts approximately 1 month (give or take) from making a purchase from Blue Sky.
The other possible pattern is the charges appear immediately after making a purchase from an online pharmacy. So, 1 month after Blue Sky purchase, but immediately after online pharmacy purchase. The pharmacies are not the same. Blue Sky is the link.
Also note I did not give my checkcard number to the online pharmacy...I paid that via echeck. But I *did* give my checkcard number to Blue Sky. My bank assures me there's no way to link my checking account number with my VISA checkcard number, let alone in the timeframe the fraud happened (I purchased from the pharmacy last night and the fraudulent charge was placed approximately an hour later). So whoever is perpetrating the fraud had to have gotten my checkcard number from somewhere else. A possible scenario is that malware was placed on my computer while signed in to Blue Sky and my card used for fraud after making a risky online pharmacy purchase to misdirect suspicion away from the real source of the fraud. The same thing happened to HDD. It's reasonable to suppose that someone who would buy hormones and peptides for research might also make riskier transactions like from online pharmacies. Just a matter of time, for many of us research types. So a scammer placing malware in a site like Blue Sky might make sense.
If anyone else has noticed anything similar after purchasing from Blue Sky, please speak up in this thread. If there's a pattern then maybe there's a bad apple at Blue Sky and they need to be notified. The customer service for my order was great.
Edited to add: forgot to say, for both me and HDD, the frauds were related to travel. Her charges were in Las Vegas, mine was a Caribbean vacation company.
