    They are a "discount membership" cramming scam.  They probably got your account information from some other online merchant you may have used, with the alleged "authorization" hidden in find print somewhere.

    The Senate Commerce Committee held hearings on this type of scam a couple years back.  It is a violation of VISA merchant contracts for merchants to pass account information to others, and they also require separate entering of card numbers into any pop-up ads that make offers in addition to the merchant's transaction.

    Immediately contact your bank to dispute the fraudulent transaction, and close the account or block the card number to prevent additional fraud.  Follow up with a written dispute or fraud affidavit sent to your bank.

    Watch your next few statements carefully, to make sure they don't roll this "automatic charge" over to your new card or account number.

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