1. It looks like this is a charge from the plant and seed retailer Jackson & Perkins. They operate under different brand names like JP Park Wayside, Parkseed, and Van Dyke's Restorers. The cryptic name on your statement is how they identify the charges.

    It seems the City Of La Dot Pvb Pbphw charge is related to the City of Los Angeles Department of Transportation Parking Violations Bureau.
     
    This charge can appear on credit card statements for a few reasons:

    1. If you received a parking ticket in Los Angeles and paid the fine using your credit card.
    2. If you purchased a visitor or guest parking pass for your block in Los Angeles using your credit card.

     
    The charge is generally legitimate if it is for an actual parking ticket or permit that you obtained. However, there have been reports of fraudulent charges appearing under this name as well.
     
    Some key things to consider:

    • If you do not live in or frequently travel to Los Angeles, and did not receive a parking ticket or permit, then this charge is likely fraudulent.
    • You should contact your credit card company immediately to dispute the charge and report it as potential fraud.
    • The credit card company can investigate the charge and reverse it if it is found to be illegitimate.
    • You may also want to contact the Los Angeles Parking Violations Bureau directly to inquire about the charge and clear up any potential mix-up.

     
    The main advice is to be vigilant about any unexpected or suspicious charges on your credit card, and to take action right away if you believe something is fraudulent. Addressing it promptly can help prevent any further unauthorized charges. Let me know if you have any other questions!

  5. This happened to me a few months back. I got hit with a $156.32 charge and when I called my credit card company, they said it was a legitimate charge from a nursery. However, I had never placed any orders with them. It was a huge hassle to get it resolved, but the credit card company did eventuallyRead more

    This happened to me a few months back. I got hit with a $156.32 charge and when I called my credit card company, they said it was a legitimate charge from a nursery. However, I had never placed any orders with them. It was a huge hassle to get it resolved, but the credit card company did eventually remove the charge after I persisted. Be prepared to really advocate for yourself if you run into this.

  6. I had a similar charge show up after booking a trip through Priceline, but in my case it was for the exact amount of the flight I had purchased, so it ended up being legit. Definitely worth double-checking though if you're unsure.

  7. I also got hit with a few of these charges on my card - one for €19 and three others for €17 each. I declined all of them since I didn't recognize the charges and had never been to the Louvre. Looks like my card info got compromised somehow. Time to get a new card and keep a close eye on my statemenRead more
