the scam is charging the cell phone number, so it shows up on your cell phone bill, not your credit card.

if the provider won't cancel and block those type of charges...you get screwed. we had a long discussion about this at a pta general meeting last year as a warning to parents. what these type of companies do is activate the billing to the cell phone number once it it entered or they get a call from one. so calling to cancle...activates the service again.

i'll see what info i still have have about reporting the companies and to whom. i hate to say it, but they are known for changing internet providers constantly.
