Star Communications definitely bad business ripoff Topango Canyon California

Like in all of these other reports, I was also scammed into giving them my account. And YES it is extremely embarrassing for me to say, but somehow my brain goes into some other trance mode when I talk to telemarketers, I can't say no. I don't know how they do it, but they just trick me.

There was the promise of $500 shopping spree, with only the payment of $4.95 AFTER the spree comes in the mail within two days. I never received that, and I never received the information about the other services that I was signed up for and needed to cancel within 10 days.

I got scared afterwards and transferred all of my money into a new account, except for $5, in the case that they were legit and would take out the $4.95 as promised. I was under the impression that nobody could take money out of a checking account that had none.

Today I checked my balance, and it was at -$118. I had forgotten to change my direct deposit information from work, so some money had also been deposited, but more money had been taken out, $4.95 twice, $129.90, and $25 twice. Luckily, it was only done yesterday, and I ran into the bank today, and I think that they can withhold the funds.

I would just like to say THANK YOU to this website because I was terrified that they were actually a legitimate company and that there was some mixup and they would sue me for not giving them the funds that I owed. That perhaps I had agreed to pay these over the phone and I was really at fault. It's funny how they can convince you, even now, to doubt yourself. All I know is, NEVER AGAIN.

And I also was called about a $300 shopping spree right afterwards, and I hung up on that. I believe someone else mentioned that it sounded like the same company.
