I've got scammed by this organization called Platinum Club. Probably they employs goons to check out the inexperienced users on sites like Craig's list (which I posted my ads). I got the email inviting me to verify my age on verifysafely.com. They asked for credit card information but it said that verifying age would be free so I thought I would check it out.

So here's the confirmation email that definitely reveals the organization's obvious scamming purpose (my personal information has been omitted)

___________________________________________


None of the contact information above is valid. Trust me, I have tried all of them. The site dollargo.us doesn't exist, and it means there's no way you can cancel your membership or do anything with that.

I have tried to cancel my membership on Platinum Club through this link: http://www.platinumclub.com/customersvc/?p=cancel_search

After you submit your email and password, the following lines appears:

"You are currently a member of dollargo.us.

Click here to visit dollargo.us customer service to complete your inquiry. "


Like I said, dollargo.us does NOT exist, which means there's NO way you can cancel your membership.

It hasn't been 48 hours since I received the email, but this is obviously a scam, and it needs to be stopped before more people are illegally charged.
