Verified purchase

Ordered product from Svitos. Got an order confirmation email. They list products as less expensive than other places, even when showing online search results. Debit card charge was presented to my bank, then reversed to facilitate further phishing scam. The reversal doesn't show in my account, though the bank can see it on their end. I didn't know it was reversed. I didn't receive my product and emailed Svitos. I was asked in an email to give it until April 5th. It never came, of course, and I got no further replies from Svitos and the phone number is fake and not even formatted correctly. Phony phone call a month later from my "bank's fraud department" with Jamaican accent said someone attempted a purchase in Houston TX for $216 and gave the last 4 numbers of my debit card. They said I could verify who they were by looking on the back of my debit card for the bank phone number. It was one digit off and the area code was also off (800 instead of 888). They wanted to cancel my debit card and issue me a new one. Asked for my birth date to authenticate who I was. A moment later asked for my SSN which I refused to give. Then asked me to just key it in the phone's keypad for his manager. I refused. They hung up on me. On Svitos webpage at bottom it says the business is Vitos in Florida. When I called my bank to replace my debit card they looked them up and said it showed their name was Vitas as the business name in Louisiana. Svitos.com is a front to get card info they then will use later to call and try to scam you.

Tip for consumers:
Tip? Don't use the site. It is a theft of card info for future phone call phishing attempt scam.

Products used:
Was a scam. A verified theft attempt.
