question on Credit card and Fedex

[onza]

Kinda far topics but...

I recently checked my CC balance and it had some charge from fedex of 20 bucks or so, and at the same time i purchased some memory from some dude for 23shipped(shipped fedex). Could there be a tie between these two? Basically the dates match exactly when i got charged and when this dude shipped the package fedex.

I havent ordered or shipped fedex for over a year, and i have a charge specifically by them.

So what i'm asking is can a customer(person I bought from) charge you? but why for 20.00 bucks cost..

I'm so confused atm. More info will follow when needed / asked.

Thnx

email the guy and see if he did this - and no unless you specifically authorized the charge of exactly $20 then most assuredly you cannot be charged for it by the customer, fedex, or jesus christ himself.

The fvcker probably used your CC at FedEx when he shipped possibly. Do you see a charge for the memory from that guy as well? I'd email the guy you bought it from and ask

ya i never authorized anything, he said he'll ship so he shipped...

i'll PM him after this message

no other charges except for the ~20 from fedex

but i dont see how he got my CC, we talked via PM's cause i saw a post for his ddr memory, so i finalized the deal.

Is there some thing like if he doesnt pay for the shipping costs it can go to me?

When I ship fedex, they charge another 10 bucks to my card..it pisses me off, because it's actually debit & I don't usually have much money in that account. They reverse the charge, but that still takes a week or two to clear..I don't know why they do it -- checking to make sure the card is good, maybe? But if so, wouldn't they know when they try the 'real' charge? Bleh...if they weren't so much better than USPS, I wouldn't use them..lol

give it a week to see if any other charge...
thats why i like citibank credit card... you can set a limit on what to be charged

the thing is, I didnt ship anything, it was the other guy.

havent used fedex for over a year, and i have some random charge.
