Holly fucking shit, just check online statement from a card that i dont use anymore and here is what i see:

Sale Date Post Date Description Amount

02/23/04 02/23 HOMEWORKS PLUS 888-256-3074 CT $119.95

I call the fuckers, the recording says it's about membership for www.dealpass.com
Fucking A???????????????

i wait for a rep, i am like,
- who authorized the charge? WTF?
- it was offered as a benefit via your card issuer citibank...you can save blah blha
- STOP!! I didn't authrize, don't give a fuck.....
- Ok sir, i have processed your credit, it will appear on your next monthly statement
- Ok i will file an fcc complaint
- you have a great day


HOW DO U LIKE THIS!??!!?!

AOL has the single highest chargeback totals. I read last month that 800,000 people had been overcharged last year.

fucking c u n t s, I love it...

whoa! thats crazy

What they re-charged your CC again ?

are they considered high risk merchants?

There is alot of fraud with AOL thou, accounts hacked ect ect.

You fell into a cross sale its typical and odds are you missed the small print somewhere.

The most interesting thing is, i've nevere heard of them...
he says they mailed something to my billing address, never got shit...

and this is obviously done with kickback to citibank, cuz they just gave out my info, and let them charge me without authorization.

Charge-Back !!!!

Happens on everything.

I've had this happen before... Usually the offer comes with a check for a few dollers... like a $5 check or something... if you read the fine print on the back it says if you cash the check you are agreeing to the service... they send you the check to make it more legaly binding... I REALLY HATE THOSE KIND OF TACTICS.. makes adult tactics look like childs play..

I got the same shit on my card

my wife ordered the perfect pancake thing a while back, and noticed a $89.95 charge on her card a little later...it was for a shopping club similar to that....we find later in the invoice that if we didn't cancel within a month to our FREE TRIAL, that we would be charged automatically...

they charged back obviously...but it is annoying

yeah, i know about the small checks, never deposit that shit...but i've never even heard of them....it's just they got my account and info from citibank, and just fucking charged me...

wow.. :)

how do they get away with it? thats the question :)
imagine charging millions of people and giving 1/2 of it to citibank as a 'referal fee' or some shit... citibank needs to get the revenues up for the 1st quarter financials :)

It's very hard for the police too get the scammers . But once they get them they stay in jail for a while . One or 2 months ago I posted a thread about a scam like that . The guys cashed like 3 billions total !!! that's a crazy ammount of money

our local gas utility automatically adds a fee to the bill each month for membership to the shop at home network. you have to ask to have the fee removed.

so many online companies are run by crooks that make their money by triple billing, etc.
