Should I File a Complaint?
If you are getting harrassing calls from this number, the answer is yes.
By filing a complaint, you are making the nature of the calls known to more people, including the caller. The more complaints a certain number receives, the more exposure it gets. This helps make the calls stop by reducing the efficiency of the caller's operations. Also, when a certain number receives a lot of complaints, we investigate the matter and report the number to the proper authorities.

Ditto on the $4.77 charge. Not a week later my credit card company shut down my account suspecting bank fraud. Lovely, eh?
there was a charge on my bank statement in the amt of $4.77. Have not idea what this is for.
Listed as a charge on my bank statement-arielstore.com, now I will need to cancel the card and file a police report. I have no idea how they got my card number. I shop at the same 5 stores and pay my bills on line. Anyone have any idea?
I got a charge for $4.77 from Arielstore.com. Called the bank and will be receiving a new card. What a pain! I have no idea how they got my card #!
Got a charge for $4.77 on my debit card from Ariel Store.com. Called my bank to report the fraud. They refunded the money and cancelled the card. This number was given me by the bank. I got the same recorded message as others.
I have had the same $4.77 charge show up on my debit card. I called my bank and canceled the card. I was told the bank (Chase) will investigate this. Shouldnt be too hard to catch the people at it since the town theyre operating from is so small.
Like the others, I had a 4.77 charge show up on my Credit card. When I called the number, I heard the same message as the others.
I was charged $4.77 from this site and it is obviously a scam. How they got my card number I do not know. I filed a police report and told my credit union and sent them an email. I got the same voice message and the complaint form did not work on their website (Surprise!) I am worried that they have my credit card number.
I too had this number appear alongside a fraudulent charge on my Master Card from the Arielstore.com. I discovered it almost as soon as it occurred when I checked my account online. I had the same experience with a hard to understand female voice...with a heavy Russian accent. I ran a "WhoIs" search of the website domain. When I called the tech-support number for the domain, the same heavily accented female voice answered on a recording also directing me to email support. This site, and this phone number, is obviously being used to support a date theft ring.
this number appears on my credit card statement alongside a fraudulent charge to arielstore.com for a small amount but my credit union has confirmed they have my compromised visa card number. Ive never done business with ariel store.com nor should they have charges on my account. tried to call the number and a difficult to understand voice mail message plays stating they are unavailable and to email support.
