1/4 Which company is behind the EREUPAY debits? Should I be afraid of a scam?
The company behind the EREUPAY direct debit title is an online platform that bills you for services. EREUPAY debits correspond to a subscription: they are therefore recurring withdrawals.
Concretely, you have undoubtedly entered your bank card on a website to buy or simply test a service (meetings, clairvoyance, content such as videos or music in streaming, sports coaching service, discount sites ... Online services are very various).
Is this a scam? YES IF your bank card has been stolen and used by a third party. If you made a purchase yourself, it is not a card fraud. We tell you more below.
2/4 Why am I seeing CB EREUPAY withdrawals from my account?
You are charged because you, or a person who had access to your credit card details, entered your card on a website to purchase a subscription, or at least a trial offer leading to a subscription.
It happens that subscriptions linked to EREUPAY debits are not desired by Internet users. But you should know that attractive trial offers (as well as other commercial mechanisms that involve entering your bank details - for example to prove that you are of age on a site) very often lead to subscriptions if no steps are taken. made to undo that.

There are two solutions to stop EREUPAY direct debits and cancel / terminate the current subscription:

4/4 Legal advice: do you have to renew your bank card to no longer be charged by EREUPAY?
What the law says ? : in March 2018, the court of cassation accepted the culpable negligence of a customer who had transmitted his data to a fraudulent site. This is the reason why a banker may refuse to block your card if you are the originator of the subscription.
If you are still in possession of your bank card, it is very unlikely that it is a card hack as explained above: blocking the card would therefore mean not honoring a contract for which you signed up. engaged. We therefore do not recommend blocking your credit card.
If it is card fraud, that is, if the card has been physically lost and used by a third party, you can report it stolen / lost to your banker. You will also be able to open a fraud file to try toget a refund (this point is to be done directly with your bank).
The EREUPAY site has just charged me € 47,50 for a subscription that I have not taken out.
I therefore approached them for the reimbursement.
Is it sufficient ?
Thank you!
