Consumer complaint received 2023-04-16
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Problem with a purchase or transfer — Charged for a purchase or transfer you did not make with the card
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (NY)

Complaint:
I was gifted an American Express gift card on XX/XX/XXXX for {$200.00} as a XXXX present / end of year bonus. I had not opened the card until today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and when I went to make a purchase, the card was declined. When I checked the balance online, it said XXXX and that there was a charge from " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' on XX/XX/XXXX for {$200.00}. Not only was my card still in my possession and unopened until today, but I have also never been to that XXXX XXXX store ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, New York, NY ) nor was I in New York on that date. 

I called American Express on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX, and was told that since it was a prepaid gift card, AmEx would not help and I had to take the issue up with the merchant. 

I called XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) customer service and they told me they do not assist with fraud on XXXX  or Amex gift cards and I would have to take it up with American Express. 

It seems to me that American Express gift card numbers have been compromised, however American Express wants nothing to do with a ) fixing the breaches b ) ensuring consumer safety.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Problem using a debit or ATM card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2023, I discovered that there were debit card ( Citibank Checking Account ) transactions that I do not recognize or authorize. I called the Citibank customer service and filed a dispute on 12 transactions in a total amount of {$1500.00}. all of them happened between XX/XX/2023 and XX/XX/2023. The agent over the phone told me that they will review the inccidents and credit the amount withing 10 days. However, it did not happen and I received a mail saying that I am responsible for those charges. 

During the perioud and even afterward, I have had the debit card with me all along and nevered revealed the card number or the PIN. While those transactions occur in other states such as PA, MN or in XXXX XXXX, CA, I stayed at home or at work in XXXX California. 

There were 10 XXXX transaction, within 3 days and 8 happend on the same day. Even none of them in an amount over {$800.00}. In anyone 's eyes, it looks suspecious enogh and I believe Citibank should have noticed it before I take a look at my transactions and should also have blocked the transactions. And of course proactively let me know, just like other financial institutions do. ( I had experience with Case card being blocked and notifying and requesting confirmation by text messages, as out of state transaction occur. ) I am writing to an appeal letter to Citibank, as well as submitting a complaint here. 
Copies of the letter from Citibank and the statement ( With the transactions underlined ) in PDF format attached.

Complaint:
The call was coming from an unknown number and had called XXXX times yesterday, in increments 4 hrs apart, and again at XXXX this morning. I finally answered assuming it was important. A female caller asked for me and I said this is she. She then asked to verify my address. I asked her to identify herself and she provided her name and some random employee number but DID NOT identify where she was calling from. I asked her again WHERE she was calling from and she refused to do so. She said I am calling about an important private matter and I need to verify your information first. I told her I was NOT giving her any information until she advised where she was calling from. She refused to do so and said " thank you we will try another time '' and hung up on me. I did research online and found the number belongs to IC Systems. I am not aware of any outstanding debts at this time.
