I did not charge anything to an online gambling website, but I%26#039;ve received an email from them saying I did and threatening to post to my credit report. Can they do this? I never visited the site, certainly never signed anything, and I thought online gambling was illegal in the US anyway!|||Well, if you didn%26#039;t charge anything to that site, they don%26#039;t have any of your information. They can%26#039;t get into your credit information if they don%26#039;t know who you are.|||It sounds like phishing to me. Be careful.|||Any monies you owe that is not paid can damage your credit report.
weather or not you actually do is a matter you need to take up with their collection agency.|||Somebody%26#039;s lying, maybe it%26#039;s you.|||Sounds like you might be the victim of identity theft. Another possibility is that this is spam email that is enticing you to enter credit card information on some bogus web site. Do not just surf to such a site and enter your credit card or other identifying information.
If I were you, I would CALL my credit card company immediately. TALK with someone about possible charges. If the charges have been made, suspect identity theft. If the charges haven%26#039;t been made, you%26#039;ve received an email scam.
Most US credit card companies (such as MBNA and Capital One) don%26#039;t allow charges to offshore Internet casinos.
