NETELLER linked to Identity theft

According to a recent news report, Neteller is allegedly linked to an identity fraud scam. Recently, 200 Vancouver residents received letters from a Vancouver collection agency demanding the payment of a $822.75 debt they never incurred with Neteller's Calgary office.

According to the collection agency, CBV Collection Services, numerous residents who received these letters said they didn't owe this money, and after investigating, this proved to be the case. These identity theft victims, fortunately, will not have their credit reports flagged for this debt.

For those of you who are not familiar with this company, Neteller is a British company used for online money transfers believed to be popular with online gambling firms.
