For example I buy a lot of passes at submitpasses.com and they show on my statement as pisosupport.com and theres like a bunch of them for different amounts, so i guess my bank found that suspicious so they froze my card so i cant use it, and i usually dont find out about it until im buying something and get my card rejected!!. And I also buy for other traffic through Epassport and Paypal, and my bangthumbs pass shows up as bangbrosc.com or something similar, and worldsex shows up as Dreamclub (sounds really porno-ish, they prolly though i joined a porn site).

And my bank said that whenever theres a lot of on-line transactions they think it might be related to fraud so they automatically put a hold on my card. This is the second time this has happened already, a few weeks I bought some concert tickets through ticketmaster and payed my taxes and for some reason they found that also suspicious, and they also found it suspicious that i was making large deposits and having a lot of transactions.

the deposits are not huge, but im too lazy to go to the bank often so i only go once a month and sometimes even longer, like almost 2 months so i save up all my checks, and after i deposited 16k through the atm all the flagging started cause they thought that was "suspicious". That and the web transactions for traffic combined....

After I call them they unblock it so i can use my card again, but its so annoying. yesterday i was at bestbuy and wanted to buy some stuff and my card was declined (which is also quite embarassing) cause they blocked it. luckily i had my check book with me, otherwise i would have driven there for nothing!

Does anyone have probs with BOA flagging down their accounts due to lots of "web transactions"? They say that a lot of web transactions sometimes means fraud cause a lot of fraudsters make web transactions i guess? I cant help it, i make lots of web transactions, thats how i pay for traffic, hosting, domains.... i even like to buy personal things from amazon.com like cookingware there, and books, all kinds of stuff... i do everything on-line...
