About a year ago this same company, Newsmax Media was charging my credit card between 20 and 30 dollars a month for I dont know what.  It took me a long time to even figure out who they were. They said I ordered some magazine online.  I did not. I do not have time to read magazines and I do not get magazines.  It took them 3 or 4 months before they quit charging me.

Again this month I noticed them charging me $49.50.  They said this is for the "Franklin Prosperity Report".  I told them I do not want or know what it is, have never seen one and not to charge me. I found out that I ordered a book for FREE but paid the shipping charges of $4.95 and that is how they got my credit card to charge me.

The first three times I called them I got hung up on. The fourth time I was on hold nearly 20 minutes. I believe this company gets your credit card number and info from other sources then makes up some bogus charge to charge you for without your consent or without you realizing that they are gonig to do this.

Thank You!

AUTHOR: Bman - Philadelphia (United States of America)

I also receive their email - thank you for filing this report. I sincerely hope that you can break free of this evil a-moral entity. They always get the poor folk using their desperation as a way to scam them. I have been a victim and know that the negative practices you mention are systemic. Until we have better and fairer regulation we are at the mercy of such nasty businesses. They want profits and wish to give no service, including responding to your service calls, then wonder why they are in the red? DUH!
