CREDIT CARD FRAUD

Why is QB letting in fraudulent payments?

Credit cards that don't match the card holders name/address.

How do I increase my security features to decline any suspicious purchases?

How can I decline purchases before they get approved and I receive a transaction fee + Chargeback Fee?

In the case that Intuit does allow a fraud payment to go through and we ship our product, how are we protected?  I am considering just using PayPal, because I can't find a real answer to my question.

Thanks for joining the thread, @MaryJo713.

 

I understand your concern about fraud payments and the protection of your business. Intuit has several measures in place to help prevent fraudulent transactions, including advanced fraud detection technology and 24/7 monitoring of your account activity.

 

QuickBooks Payments is compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). This is a set of security standards that ensure companies that accept, process, store, or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. As a Level 1 PCI DSS service provider, it has implemented the necessary security controls and processes to protect sensitive credit card information and maintain a secure payment processing environment.

@MaryJo713   There are NO guarantees of your safety against fraud/ scammers, especially when using anything Intuit/ QB. You will be out the money AND the product because QB will NOT support you, or any of it's customers.  

 

You can use the Search bar at the top of the page to find MANY Intuit/ QB customers that have lost hundreds, if not thousands, to fraud/ scammers.  

 

Do yourself and your company a favor and find a better, safer, more secure way to do things.  You'll be better off. 

 

Good Luck.

Our settings were set not to allow any mismatched information on our desktop pos v20 and we had approximately 40,000.00 of fraudulent charges over a 3 week period to n February of 2022.  We were not notified of any fraudulent attempts or mismatches and no flags were triggered on the account. We did not get notification other than that the payment were being disputed by customers AFTER the fact. Our settings were allowed to override the system manually. WHY?

Hi there, Jesus m81. I am here to help you with the charge you received.

 

If you want to confirm whether the charges on your account are from Intuit or QuickBooks, you can use the Look up a charge  tool to search for a charge in any of the QuickBooks products, such as QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Enterprise, QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Self-Employed, QuickBooks Online Payroll, QuickBooks Time, and QuickBooks Checks & Supplies.

 

In case you find out that the charges are not from Intuit, it means that they are not from QuickBooks. In such a scenario, I recommend that you reach out to your bank and Crunch Fitness support to inquire about the charges and ask for assistance in resolving the issue. They have the necessary tools and expertise to guide you on how to proceed and resolve your concern. 

 

In addition, you can also check this article to learn how to spot suspicious activities, fake emails, or anything that can potentially cause harm to your business: Identify suspicious activity, phishing scams, and potential fraud.

QUICKBOOKS WILL NOT BACK YOU UP!!!

 

I recently had someone order material from me.  We sent them the invoice through Quickbooks Intuit software and CC'd ourselves.  Customer paid with a credit card.  A week after delivery was made, the customer disputed the charges.  We uploaded all the evidence requested by Quickbooks Resolution Center including POD, Photos of the material being loaded onto customer's trucking, along with a copy of the email sent to the customer requesting payment.  We figured we would be covered this way.  Turns out we were wrong.

 

Quickbooks sent us an email a week later stating that a decision had been reached in favor of the Card Issuer (meaning: my customers credit card company).  Quickbooks WILL NOT give any information as to why the decision was reached in their favor.  They also WILL NOT give us any information on who the credit card issuer is so that we may contact them direct.  Furthermore, they refuse any appeal process on the decision made.

 

Quickbooks DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ITS CUSTOMERS.  Their only concern is selling you as many products as possible.  But if something should go awry, you are on your own.  Quickbooks washes their hands of the situation and moves on to the next matter at hand.  Anyone using Quickbooks credit card merchant services should look elsewhere for a better company that will actually back up their customers.
