AuraVie Skincare Scam of the Year! Don't fall for their ads. They charge your credit card without you knowing it. Van Nuys, California

So far I see two posts from you for two different creams that used the same method of purchase - a monthly subscription charged to your card.

This method has been around for years now, where it is "free" for a limited period: 5 days, 10 days or 30 days is common. Then your card is charged $X each and every month for a subscription to this product monthly or bi-monthly. To stop the subscription you have to notify the vendor according to their terms and conditions. Read the terms, not just the ad. The ad is there to sell you on the product. The disclaimers are in the terms.

I don't like those types of subscription services either because they are extremely expensive. So I don't click on those websites, or order from the TV ads or call the phone numbers. The only consistency each of these products have is the consistent charging of your card. You can avoid it entirely by not subscribing to their services. This method of purchasing is endemic to the industry. The only way to protect yourself is to not order their services at all.

Since you subscribed, you will need to cancel or they will continue to charge you and eventually send you to collections. Good luck in getting this taken care of (in the long run).

As to the cream working or not - 30 days is not going to give you any indication of whether it works or not. You are better off using a drug store cream that you can buy retail as you need it. If it works, keep buying it. If not, then don't buy it.
