A stranger ( an anonymous person) had made 3 purchases of $267 overnight on my Walmart Credit card. These transactions were charged on my PayPal account that’s linked to the Walmart master card. Next morning as soon as I noticed the charges, immediately called both PayPal and Walmart, and reported the fraud to them. I was told to give them a few days to investigate the fraud. Long story short they both approved that this was a fraud case. So, The PayPal ( merchant) paid Walmart the amount that was stolen from me, however, the Walmart still keeps billing me the amounts of $801 on my statements. Every time I called the Walmart’s master card customer service, the call gets transferred to a foreign country ( mostly Philippines), they take all my information to verify my call then they say I must be transferred to their security department, and after a long wait it rings a couple of times and my call gets disconnected. I kept trying many times and finally were able to talk to their security department they made an excuse that the amount was double credited ( which Walmart fails to provide me a proof if they deposited the amount on the card). As soon as I request them to send me the proof for their claim my call gets immediately disconnected. Walmart is supposed to send me a bill with a zero balance since they received the stolen money paid them by PayPal, but still wants to charge me for that. This is absolutely unfair. I am just sharing my story with public then people will give it a second thought before signing up for the Walmart master card. They have zero customer protection. Do not fall in the trap.
