a while back, i purchased my stillen fstb and rsb from avalon racing. and it came out ~$400.

so late last month, i get the credit card statement, and theirs this company 'avalon entertainment something' that was charging my bill ~$400!!!

i couldnt figure out who the heck that was. i thought some hacker got a hold of my credit card number *cough* egghead.com *cough*, and started signing up for **** sites online.

avalon entertainment... the entertainment part totally through me off, that and the late bill. i went to the bank and they decided to cancel that card, and give me a new one.

well i got a nice call from avalon today, saying that they couldnt get the money, but and i think everythings fixed now.

and im not some paronoid internet doof, who thinks hackers will steal my CC#, but egghead got hacked and all the CC#'s in their database was stolen, and my friend got a mysterious $500 bill.

so its kinda funny avalon racing = avalon entertainment

DooBall: Sure that's what Avalon Entertainment is. Glad to know it wasn't a criminal charge.

OhBoiya: $400 something sounds about right (~$170+ ~$250)

Turbo95Max found that out also.

Good thing your wife (if you have one) didn't take a look at the statement first. She would've 'ed you.

hah, I think the person on the phone thought i was a credit card frauder-person. he was like, "you have 72 hours to fix this, b/c ill tell you why. the police/gov/fbi/whatever was investigating the new york/new jersey area for credit card fraud".

so i tried to explain myself, but didnt want to insult the name "Avalon Entertainment", thinking it was a porno site.
