My credit card was charged $54.99 for something I have no idea about. I'm now getting the banks to look into this as a dispute but I think this is some dodgy paypal connection !

I had this same problem... I noticed a reoccurring $29.99 charge on my Paypal account. When I tried to find somebody at DigialRiver I found that they are just like Paypal and some body may have enough of my information to be able to scam me. I change my payment info and blocked any transactions coming from Digital River.

Thanks to someone mentioning it was internet security, I checked and I have an invoice from AVAST that I had ordered, for the same amount. Digitalriver seem to be like paypal, a payment gateway. All is good. Look through your emails for invoice receipts for the same amount on something you've ordered

After login to Paypal and check, I found the legit purchase record which I totally forgot, I guess the company may be responsible to charge digital product (but I'm not sure). In my case is CLIP STUDIO PAINT PRO... Hope it may help.

First I was confused, thanks for earlier comments. Personally for me is the Flickr storage space monthly fee. As someone recommended on the bottom of the monthly bill is referring Digital River Ireland Ltd. Is a choise of payment. If you refuse to pay you might loose your storage capacity upgrade.

Digital River is an online transaction company. It's a middleman for many software license transactions including Avast. I was charged 64.94 because I forgot to cancel my subscription. this was easily solved when I went into my Avast account settings within a week and requested a refund. The license was quickly revoked and I got all of my money back. while it's not in my bank account anymore, I do have confirmation from Paypal that every penny of the money I was charged will be returned to my Paypal account within a few days.

On the 18th Oct. I was doubly charged by these people. One payment was for € 69.99 and the second €59.99. I did NOT authorise either. I went into their website and was asked to log in which is impossible because I don't have an account with them.

I had to track down the source of the charge by looking through my email for a receipt on the date my bank record showed. I found an email from my bank to the tune of $66.14 like I expected, then an email from PayPal confirming a payment to Digital River Inc., and finally a receipt from Blue Microphones. As it turns out it was just the microphone I bought as a gift for my sister. If you're having the same problem try looking through your email like I did. It seems like this is just a proxy payment service that some companies use.

It's legit. Check your paypal and it'll tell you what it is; you probably used paypal for some sort of service or subscription. Think of it like this: paypal is one mail depot that your package (money) goes to, then it goes to digitalriver as another depot before finally going to its destination. Not a scam, just check your paypal activity and it'll tell you in more detail what it was that you paid for.
