On XXXX, an unauthorized order was placed through XXXX  for {$580.00}, onto my Sony Visa Card managed by Comenity Bank.

Consumer received an email along with an order number from XXXX indicating that an order had been placed through order number XXXX. Consumer contacted the merchant, XXXX responsible for the unauthorized charge to dispute and remove the charge and credit back my account. According to XXXX, the merchant stated that the order number XXXX did not exist and the merchant stated that an order that did not exist would not be able to be cancelled! Yet, my credit card was charged by the merchant. 
After Consumer made an attempt to ask the merchant to remove the charge and cancel order XXXX, Consumer received an email indicating that the order was active but shipping was delayed. Therefore, Consumer contacted the merchant again to cancel the order and/or remove the charge/s from my credit card account and again, merchant insisted that the order was not a valid order. Due to the fact the merchant denied charging my credit card and denied activating the unauthorized order, Consumer contacted Comenity Bank to dispute the charge being fraudulent and unauthorized. 
Comenity Bank stated that the charge would be removed and disputed with the merchant. However, on XXXX the merchant that was under dispute re-applied the charge {$580.00} back to the card that was closed under account number XXXX. As a result, the charge was applied and transferred over to the new card under account number XXXX that was activated on XXXX unexpectedly and without my authorization.
