MaxNaim Fine Watch Collection Free Watch scam Internet

This is a very clever scam.  It involves an online solicitation to participate in a survey which will result in a FREE gift.  After completing the survey you are invited to select the gift from one of four watchs. You are then requested to pay by credit card the shipping and handling of only $5.99.  At some point in this process you are directed to click a box to indicate agreement with the terms and conditions which is made to appear as if you are simply agreeing to pay the $5.99.  You then receive a confirming email thanking you for your participation.



Shortly a wrist watch arrives.  Two weeks later a charge of $98.00 appears on your credit card account.  Upon calling the toll free number on the website...and after listening to a recorded statement for more than enough time to make the average caller hang up, you speak to a woman named Tanya who tells you that had you carefully read the terms and conditions you would have known that it is only a FREE two week trial after which you have bought the watch if you have not sent it back.  If you stubbornly insist there was nothing on the website saying anything about a two week trial, you will simply be given an email address for the billing department.  But, good luck getting your $98.00 back.
