CIC*CREDIT MONITOR SVC CIC charged me $79.95 and I didn't know a thing about it. California Internet

I received my monthly statement from Providian Visa I checked all my transactions and on the 5th of September 2003 there appeared a charge from cic credit monitor svc for $79.95. I did not even know who these people where so I called the number on the transaction in CA. They were cooperative about the whole matters and said I would be receiving a refund in a couple of weeks. Still I did not authorize this transaction on the 9/5/03 and how can they get by with doing stunts like this. I also thought our credit cards numbers were secure over the internet so now my wife and I are going to discontinue the practice.
