If you notice a debit from SHOCKDEAL247 or SHOCKDEALS365, it means that your bank card has been entered on a website.

Here are some examples: a trial offer on a site, a contest to win a smartphone at 1 euro (or any other attractive object: a perfume, cinema tickets, etc.), a draw to win a trip following sending a newsletter ...

Unless your bank card has disappeared and someone else has used it to register on a website, there is a good chance that you are the originator of this subscription to SHOCKDEAL247 or SHOCKDEALS365. Perhaps you did not understand that entering your bank details could lead to a subscription (this is quite possible and unfortunately very common.)

In summary, we cannot consider it a scam in the sense that it is not a credit card hack.

Can I block my card with my bank to stop the SHOCKDEAL247 or SHOCKDEALS365 charges?

If it is a credit card fraud, that is to say, if the card has been lost and used by a third party, you can declare it lost with your banker. You will also be able to open a fraud file to try to obtain a refund (this point is to be discussed directly with your bank advisor).

If you are still in possession of your card, it is very unlikely that it is a card hack: in this case, you have entered your bank details and have validated the GTC (General Conditions of Sale) which informed you about a possible subscription: blocking the card would therefore mean not honoring a contract for which you have signed up. We therefore do not recommend blocking your credit card.The legal point : 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.
