I guess you could count me in one of the 20 victims.
Saw a charge on Sept. 7 from ESTOREONLINE ROCKLIN, CA for $15.99 (WTF!!!) Call them up and the refund the money right way. A week later, check online statement and then there was another charge for $8.99 from ESTOREONLINE ROCKLIN, CA. :| Call them up again and they reversed the charge, but this time I want a new card to go with that. New card didn't come in yet, but so far, no new charge from estoreonline. :)

I got hit too 8.99. I am not getting a new number, but I have a feeling that they will block this so-called store. They will lose the ability to process w/ that many chargebacks. I found another interesting post here. This person did have a relationship to that .com domain which is now registered to someone in a brooklyn apt supposedly. May have no relation at all, but the store is supposed to be in california, I did get an address, but no phone number. If it happens gain AMEX will be hearing it.

I got hit on 9/20 from Estoreonline for $8.99. Discovered on the morning of 9/21 during a online session with AMEX. They began a fraud investigation and refunded the charge. Seems like alot of others are getting hit. Common ground is AMEX and Estoreonline. Check your accounts.

Count me in as a victim, 9/22 charge of 15.99 from ESTOREONLINE.
!Bastards!

What's the company's number to call? Not listed on my Amex bill, just the transaction number. Already called Amex to dispute charge and call it fraud and have them send me a new card/number.
