Business owner's response to complaint:
I am not a scammer or a hacker. I despise them. I run a legitimate business. The website address for this business is www.Avantg.org. My guess is that most of the people that claim to have fraudulent use on their credit/debit cards have either forgotten that they went to this website and downloaded some cell themes or someone else has gotten hold of their credit cards. I am not doing this. I am just an average person, trying to make a little extra money. There are other people that I answer to and I do not receive all the profits from this venture. I only receive 5% commission on each sale. I have no way of getting these credit card numbers. I do not use any kind of key loggers or any other illegal software to obtain such information and neither do I get these numbers from any other source. My business email address is avant-garde@q.com, if you wish to have an exchange with me. I can see if I can find the actual transaction in my records, but all of my transactions are done via the web through the above mentioned website. I was using Authorize.net and Newtek as my electronic payment processing sources during this time frame. If you have any other questions or issues, please let me know. We will gladly refund your money if you still believe this transaction was not legitimate, but please go to the website I noted above and see if this is something that you may have purchased online. Also, in answer to any other questions that others may have and for the record, there have been other accusations of other amounts being charged to their credit/debit cards, the only amounts that would show up from Avant Garde, LLC, are $2.99, $4.99 and/or $6.99.
Again, I am not responsible for these charges and this is no scam. I have no way of obtaining credit/debit card numbers or bank account numbers. I don't operate like that and I would like to stay in business operating and providing a legitimate service.
