FOC creditcard fraud?

I think, the CGN team needs to investigate this as a whole and if the FOC hasn't done anything to remediate this issue then action should be taken. Whether it be suspension or banning would be up to them, but this issue is affecting all these folks who posted and others, plus it throws a bad shade on the CGN as a whole. Purchasers who have been compromised may be hesitant to buy from other sponsors too.

CGN won’t do #### besides keep collecting FOCs sponsor money.

Well they might ban me for making this abundantly clear
But they aren’t going to touch their bottom line for us.
 
I used my card twice at FOC. A year apart, had two fraudulent billings on my account after each purchase. I got the first two issues resolved. I called them, they said they had an issue but it was resolved. Not so, made one more purchase , and yep, you guessed it. It happened again. But I i was watching for it. I will no longer shop there. It seems like it's in house. All fraudulent charges were in the city, and for things like tickets to Bluejays games etc. They know it's going on. They are responsible. They are in my humble opinion, by not correcting the issue, are at the very least complicit if not actively participantating in the fraud.

I got lynched on this forum for saying something similar. Some hotshot airhead telling me I’ll be taken down for slander…
A lot of half Witts on this forum.
 
Came on here to see if the fraud charges were still going on and I must say jm not shocked by the responses lol. I'm still waiting to hear from FOC on my pistol shipment that had the transfer approved February 6th and I already received my registration from the RCMP but still no word if the firearm has even shipped yet. Guess I will try calling them tomorrow to try and get a shipping update or at this rate maybe the pistol is missing lol.


Transfer approval feb 6th and they still haven’t shipped ??? What the hell are you waiting for ?!? …… call the cops man !! Let them know what’s going on. 3 weeks without shipping is absolutely ridiculous……….
 
A fall from grace for sure
They were my #1 online pick until this happened and my card compromised.
Lots of stock,. Decent shipping cost, order always left the next business day.
Hard finding a replacement go to vendor.
It's given me the opportunity to order from other places, but some just seem like they skip over little things.
For instance $34 to ship a set of rings that showed up 2 weeks later, regular mail with $6 postage on it, $19 to ship a thread protector.
FOC was always on that and adjusted shipping
 
I have the same problem, when I phoned FOC two days ago, I got shouted down and then he hung up on me. Having already had my C/C info compromised via FOC, I will never use or recommend them again. EVER.
I would be interested to know the purchase date of your pistol...

September 29th was when I purchased it. February 6th was transfer approval.

Yeah hoping to hear from them this week. I know they generate a tracking number as soon as I purchased the pistol but I'm not sure if they use that tracking number when they have been shipping pistols once transfer approval has gone through or if they just ship them under a new tracking number because the tracking info is none existent through the shipping company

Agreed, they were always my first stop. They seem to have things in stock that other dealers don't have in stock or carry. However, they wont get any more business from me. I would rather go without.
 
Has anyone gone to the store and talked with the owners about what is going on here?

The sad thing is Tons of people don't even know about this

Apparently, one member on here was able to knock on the door long enough to get someone to come up from the printing press in the basement. He said he didn't care about this thread, and went back to the basement.
 
Last September I bought a pistol on FOC website. Then my credit card was stolen in October.
I kept asking them to give me transfer number. Untill November I was told my order was forgotten to process. Then I was given my money and a 20% discount shopping coupon.
I used the coupon in December with a new credit card. So far, I haven't noticed the credit card stolen.

You'd better cancel your credit card and get a new one now, before sad things happen.

Whelp that certainly does not add any confidence in my 2 pistols with them - sent the transfer notification to them 2 days ago via email and has been cricket since :)
 
Can't believe this is still going on with FOC. I placed two orders end of May and by first week of July Visa card was compromised. With all of the chatter of similar experiences already I didn't bother contacting them. Haven't ordered anything from them since.
