EMI Encore Marketing - Freeshipping.com - Proflowers Fraudulent use of credit card number Internet

I used Proflowers to order on-line. When I was entering my order, I was offered “THIS ORDER QUALIFIES FOR A FREE SHIPPING REBATE CLICK HERE.” This option was inviting so I clicked on it and got a temporary window that read: You must fully complete your ProFlowers Order to receive a free shipping rebate of up to $15, courtesy of our partner Freeshipping.com

It's as easy as 1-2-3:

1. Complete your order

2. Click on the Free Shipping window already launched in your browser

3. Fill out the registration

Little did I know that I had ALREADY allowed another company (Freeshipping) to fraudulently charge my credit card! At the end of the Proflowers transaction, I was directed to this web site (step 3 above):

I was filling out the form, but when it asked for my credit card number, I knew something was wrong. I stopped and did NOT enter my card number, but the next morning there was a pending debit on my Visa account from EMI Encore Marketing (www.Freeshipping.com). I then did a Google search and immediately saw this outfit has many complaints of fraud against it. Both Proflowers and Freeshipping are cooperating to deceitfully and fraudulently charge your credit card.
