I received a text in February about a $200 gas voucher and I naively became excited about it because I wanted to give the gas money to my mother as a gift. So I stupidly called the number. Long story short, I stupidly gave them my information and they charged me a couple of times until I realized that this whole [***] was [***] and changed my card number so they wouldn't be able to charge me any more. Since, I've still been receiving unwanted magazines in the mail.
NOW they are saying I owe a lot of money to them and that if I don't pay it, the amount will go into "collections." Should I believe that? What I'm worried about is if this will effect my credit...but I don't no if they're lying either. What should I do? What should I believe?

    It's a con, a scam.

    Although it is not likely any "account" will go to "collections", if so, get an attorney and sue their a**es off.  That threat is just more BS.


    Dispute their fraudulent charges through your bank, and block the account or card number to prevent additional fraud.  Follow up with a written dispute or fraud affidavit sent to your bank's dispute address.  Your bank can reverse fraudulent or unauthorized charges if you dispute within 60 days of the statement date of the statement showing the disputed charges.

    File fraud complaints with FTC, your state Attorney General, and at www.ic3.gov
