    ...the right way!
    Corporate Advocacy Program
I was attracted about the middle of February, 2011, by a website offering a position as an "affiliate" of Mileage Maxx, who would create a website in my name, intended to attract buyers of Mileage Maxx's gasoline additive, alleged to substantially increase gas mileage. I was to receive forty percent of the sales income.

When I applied, I was sent a large package of forms to sign in which my total cost was obscured by reason of the forms' multiplicity and the speed of the transaction.
 
I began to have doubts about the validity of their claims for their product, its salesworthiness, and assurances of additional income. When I checked my bank account. I discovered that the company had raided my credit card (I had foolishly given them my card number) in the amount of eight thousand dollars, which they have refused to refund.

It is my contention that if I purchase a product and am dissatisfied, that the product can normally be returned within a reasonable time and the cost refunded. Mileage Maxx adamantly refuses to honor this business ethic.

#1 Consumer Suggestion

Some things to do

AUTHOR: Larry - Phoenix (U.S.A.)

First, file a dispute with your credit card company.  The procedure should be set forth on the back of your monthly statement.

Second, consult with an attorney.  You should have done that before, but better late than never.

Third, you need to seriously rethink any ideas you may have about getting involved in internet schemes in the future.  For some reason you believed that you needed to act quickly at a time when you needed to be cautious.  Never give your credit card number to anyone without knowing how much they are charging you and for what.  You can be certain that if they ask for the number they intend to charge your account.

Finally, use some common sense.  These people have a product and a website.  What do they need you for? Why would they want to set up a website for you so that you can also sell their product and take a cut?  The answer is that the product is likely crap that no one would ever purchase, so they make their money suckering chumps to pay them thousands to be "affiliates."

where was the trick

AUTHOR: Chef - dorchester (U.S.A.)

Where is the trick, in your title you said you signed the paperwork in a hurry WHY???? You should have read the contract before you signed it. You mean you were not told how much they were gigoing to charge you. You opened a business with them, seems to me you wanted them to pay you 40% of the sales but you wanted to pay nothing no ripp off here just another stupud consumer
