Potential Chargeback Scam

 

We’ve heard from merchants of a potential fraud situation.

A transaction has been processed, and then a refund has been requested, but to a different credit card than the original transaction.  Our recommendation is to make a company policy to always refund back to the original card to prevent a chargeback on the original card at a later date.  Refer to the Section regarding Refunds in your Merchant Program Guide for further information on processing refunds properly.  Remember, your customers have up to six months to file a chargeback complaint.
