What is it?

I'm not sure about your situation, but me and my bank figured out that it's an Arco gas station where I buy my gas. It may be a different gas station where you live as I don't know how many different gas stations belong to this group. It showed up on my bank statement as "United Pacific 5". I hope this helps.

The charge was from a Shell Gas Station in Orchards, Washington State. I had purchased gas from there yesterday for the first time.

I’m 100% certain i’ve got your answer. This is a gas station charge, or a charge for the convenience store next to it. It does this with every gas station in my town and in the convenience store I use often.

Unexplained and unauthorized charge appeared on my credit union statement. I have never done business with any such company and will be filing charges to get my money back immediately.

$100 charge from United Pacific #179 immediately after using my card at a Shell Gas Station Pay-at-Pump.

I put $90 worth of gas at a 76 gas station using my debit with PIN # and the same day a charge of $89.30 showed up from United Pacific 5 and when I looked it up, apparently many people have had the same scenario and it turns out that the charges are a scam from the Congo, my bank told me ANYTIME you have a choice at the pump for credit or debit, ALWAYS choose credit.

On my bank account the transaction posts as UNITED PACIFIC 5 FOLSOM CA 12-03-23. It initially showed up as a $1 pending transaction and despite disappearing after a couple days, I was expecting it to show up again as a settled transaction. I wasn’t expecting it to take 25 days after pumping gas, though.

For those curious about the Folsom, CA location, it’s the 76 gas station across the street from Folsom Premium Outlets on Iron Point Rd near Folsom Blvd.

Looking up the gas station on Apple Maps has a link to the gas station’s website with the following info:
