My bank notified me that a charge of 10.58 had been declined from Cigars in Bethlehem PA due to entering the expiration date incorrect. FRAUDULENT 100% Thank God they goofed and my bank contacted me.
Same as everyone else. Had a 15.88 charge from CIGARS BETHLEHEM PA. Had to cancel card. I also had a $56 charge from an unknown Amazon account.
I had a charge on 9/11/2020 for 48.58. I called my bank immediately.

Received two pending charges from Cigars Bethlehem, PA 9/14/2020 & 9/15/2020 for $10.38. Contacted my bank this morning and reported fraudulent debit card use.
I found a fraudulent charge for $19.51 on my credit card. From a transaction today. I contacted card company and shut it down.
They just charged my card today for $19.51 (I want a explanation of why TF if this has been going on since April of 2014) What, the bank has no way of tracing where the $uck the funds are being transferred. I'm going to work on tracing this myself then. AND, let me find out who took my cash with no consent. Notta good move.
Fraudulent charge. Interesting that 25 people reported this as trusting while over 100 is reporting fraud. Who knows how many people haven't noticed. They apparently were doing this in 2014 and decided to get busy again this week.
Fraud rip off charged 169.00 to a debit card credit union caught
Yep $18.98 charge on the credit card. Never heard of these guys. I’m mid west as well. MO,.
I had two charges totaling over $300 today. Does anyone know if it’s a legit business being scammed by a 3rd party crook or is it a fraudulent business?
I had a charge of 164.15 on my debit card from these people. Never heard of them. I don't smoke, never have. I immediately canceled my card.
$89 charge. Never smoked in my life.
These pieces of !$^#, waste of life, scam artists stole ONE HUNDRED FORTY DOLLARS from me! Never been to PA and never smoked a cigar in my life. Had to cancel my card. Screw these guys. Monitor your accounts, so these losers don't take any more money from anyone. They need to actually WORK for their money, not steal it. LOSERS.
Had a 147.99 pending on my debit card as of 10.4.2020 from cigars bethlehem pa. Cancled my card. Bank is closed today. Hope get my money back.
They tried on 10-3-2020 for $163.00 but bank declined charge. Unbelievable, they have not been caught...How are they even getting the account or debit card numbers? So now we can’t have a bank account or debit card? Really!!!
I also have a charge $145 charge from CIGARS BETHLEHEM PA. Does everyone had a TD Bank account? Just wondering if we all have something in common and why hasn't the FBI gotten involved?
just got hit with it today.. $147.45.....SUCKS
I found this site here and read all the comments on Oct 6 2020 it happened to me too 15.88 taken out. I now decided to comment too. I am a part of Wells Fargo. I told Wells Fargo to add this to their fraud list and they said they cant do that. Trying to thing where I put my card in online sites. It’s still pending and won’t go away. Apparently they call it in online these people with your card number. I am a cash person and don’t really use my card online. I did order from Motor Vehicle not sure if that was it.
My bank card issuer declined a 16.98 charge attempt from this place today. Never heard of this place, don't order cigars, and I'm the only cardholder.
Hi me again from the comments above. It's Cigars International and they are aware of the frauds going on. I called them and gave them my name and last four digits of my card and they found it. They blocked that persons account and stopped the order. It was from an online order not call in. Apparently to order you need the card number and expiration date only. Takes 3-5 days for the charge to be refunded.

Try the 484-285-0400 number as well. Yeah, hopefully the PA FBI is looking into it as there was another cigar shop (owner) from PA that went prison for nearly $1 million in credit card fraud--not saying this shop is in on it.
I just got hit with a $147.45 account too.
I had a fraudulent charge of $156.65 charged to my debit card on 10-12-2020. Called my bank to turn off that card and filed a claim for fraud.
Fraudulent charge on my debit card. Card closed immediately.
FRAUD! 2 attempted charges. One on October 11, 2020 and the other on October 13, 2020. Bank sent a fraud alert, not because of these but because there were also attempted charges to Adidas US Online for almost $1900! One charge for for almost $900 and another for almost $1000!
Same happened here. Charge attempt yesterday @ CIGARS for 15.99 for a card I use for very specific local things. I'm guessing someone's system was breached and they obtained a number of people's card information.
I’m from Va. currently in NC. And Just had 3 charges 17.98 show up on my citi card. I get alerts for all purchases. Called immediately. So frustrating, gotta make calls and change number. T
Charged 123,10 today
Just charged $186.17 to my card, luckily Wells Fargo was smart enough to flag it and deny the transaction. Why the F has this been happening since 2014? This is completely unacceptable in so many ways. There's probably a Cigar shop in Bethlehem that must get calls about this on a daily basis.
Fraudulent charge today. 170 my bank reported to me and declined it.
Got charged $178 yesterday too but they reversed the charge on my credit card. Maybe they are were testing to see if I would notice before charging more. Reported immediately to Chase bank and got a new card.
Just found a $331 charge to our card and am waiting to speak to the bank about stopping this charge. This is outrageous! We are in Florida and do not smoke! I will be reporting to any and all fraud agencies as possible! They need to be stopped!
Two charges for $613.34 & $1232.57 this week. Live in Florida.
I just found a charge for $13.28 and contacted my credit card to report FRAUD! Asked if I would help if they found out who did this and I said, YES- 100% agree. I never lost my card and don't smoke cigars ever. This needs to be stopped !!
3 $345.67 charges on my credit card. They were still pending but I had to cancel my card never been to this place. The company actually is aware of the fraud I contacted them and they actually refunded my money the second day. My credit card company said it could take up to 30 days to dispute so at least this place did something about it.

Charged $380.99 had to cancel my debit card. We also don't smoke and had never heard of Cigars.
Just had a charge of fraudulent charge of $165.13 on my debit card. Never heard of the company and I don't smoke. The bank refused the charge and cancelled my debit card. I hadn't used my debit card for months until 2 weeks ago when I helped my son with a late card payment. Seems very suspicious. Keep a close eye on your debit and credit card use.
two charges this week on two different cards had to cancel both cards. We also don't smoke and had never heard of Cigars.
Fraudulent charge on my debit card, $16.30. May 5th, 2023. Received text from bank referencing charge. Did not have a new order. Filed a fraud claim with the bank and they cancelled debit card.
Fraudulent charge on my credit card. I have ordered from Cigars International in the past but not lately. I saw a charge for $14.95 and logged into my account. Says they're shipping me a Membership Kit? I never joined any membership anything with them. I went in my account online and looked... I have no cards on file with them and no memberships?
Was moving some funds around online with my bank in anticipation of paying my property taxes, and noticed a pending charge of $331.96 from these guys on my checking account. Called my bank and made a fraudulent charge complaint, hopefully they can cancel it in time and reverse the charge. Getting a new card issued, for sure.
Well folks they are still doing the same thing 3 years later. They just got me for $57.51. I live in PA but I never heard of this outfit. By the way, I just got this card 3 days ago.
A $14.95 charge is on my credit card that I didn't buy.
Never signed up for any charge. So stop immediately
Just was added to my husband's account, received my cars and a couple of weeks later I got a text about this charge. We just got back from South Haven and I am wondering if someone got my number there to use? The motel seemed shady AF.
Fraud Charges on my Credit Card
Not really sure what this charge is.
Got popped for $482.99 by these guys. I called their customer service line during business hours and the recording said I called outside of business hours.
also just got popped with this charge $349 for Cigars Bethlehem PA. Told it was on on line purchase. Reported the freaud and now waitin for new card.. Such bad timing for me right now. Hope Karma gets these people
$47.45 just charged to my checking account today. Still pending. Good thing I've got an appointment with my bank in the morning.
Did not approve of this automatic payment for advertising. Charged monthly and did not give permission.
This showed on my bill - just realized it. Reported fraud!
This eronious fradulant charge has happened before. This is NOT okay. I think they need to be sued with class action. This angers me to no end. Life’s hard enough to then correct the wrongs of the day. Do away with auto debit and access.
This shows on my bank account, I never purchased or don't smoke. Reported fraud.
