Likewise. I ordered a sample which was supposed to be a charge for $5. An absolutely fraudulent company and complete rip-off. I haven't even received anything, and I also saw 3 charges on my account. One, for $25 had already gone through, and all I authorized was $5, and never saw an order total before billing -- as required by law. I immediately contacted PayPal, which is who I went through, and they removed the other 2 authorizations for $38.95 each.

It's a real pain having to deal with fraudulent businesses like this, but Seattle's Best is nothing good, when it comes to Bellezza Coffee's actions. It's only a matter of time until the credit card companies come after them, together with the Federal Trade Commission. I've already reported them, PayPal is taking action, as are the credit card companies. Someone's going to do some time over this one. At least they won't have to worry about their bills for a while, in a little 8'x 7' cell. It serves them right.

If you have already ordered something from Seattle's Best Coffee and see the fraudulent charges start to mount, call your card company immediately and have the authorizations canceled. Then when the package arrives, DO NOT OPEN IT, refuse the shipment and have it returned at no charge to you. This way you won't have to pay for returning it, nor will they have any reason to keep even one penny of what was fraudulently charged to your account.

It's a shame scammers like this try to get away with stuff like this, but with Homeland Security's beefed up regulations against fraud, they clamp down hard. I'm really hoping that whoever's doing this is at Seattle Direct / Bellezza Coffee is punished to the fullest extent of the law, and will be forced to be sorry they ever committed so much fraud against so many people.
