:mad: Yesterday I was on Pamperedchef.com and applied for the fedex kinkos discount card. I was setting up my account and entered my credit card number because I always do fedex on line with my regular job. Now I have three debits out of my account for ten dollars each shipping something to Tennesee :mad: :mad: :mad:

It specifically says on there that no charges will be billed to your account for setting it up! Has anyone else had this problem??
 
I didn't have any problems, but I know there was another thread awhile back where others were being charged too!
 
Mine wasn't charged. I'd contact my CC company and dispute the charges.
 
I noticed that on my bank account online after I first signed up too but the charges were just a "test" as they weren't actually posted to my account. Hope that helps.
 
Nope, no charges here. Contact them immediately.

Are there any signs that indicate the FedEx Kinkos Discount Card is a scam?

Signs that the card may be a scam include unsolicited offers, high-pressure sales tactics, vague terms and conditions, and a lack of clear contact information for customer support. If the card promises unrealistic discounts or seems too good to be true, it may be a scam.

Can I get my money back if I was scammed by the FedEx Kinkos Discount Card?

Getting a refund may depend on how you purchased the card. If it was bought through a reputable retailer, you may be able to return it for a refund. If it was purchased from an unofficial source, your options may be limited, but you can still report the scam to seek further assistance.
