The original amount charged was to be $2.97 for the information kit which I never received. The the next day was charged to my checking account $57.61 and again the next day the same amount of $57.61. This being said my account had overdrawn and I was charged $30.00 for overdraft.  I have tried to call the company shown with my checking account for the GRANT outfit and they will not reply to my problem saying "It is in the agreement and money cannot be refunded".   I've been unemployed for more than a year and every penny has to be watched,I guess I fell for another scam,but only looking for some extra income to help keep our home and car!

    Immediately contact your bank to dispute fraudulent charges, and close the account due to fraud to prevent additional fraudulent charges.  Follow up with a written dispute or fraud affidavit sent to your bank's dispute address from your statement.

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

    Do NOT trust any cancellation or refund promises, as such scams will say anything to delay you past the 60 day FRB Reg. E or FCBA dispute periods during which your bank can just yank back their stolen money.  Dispute with your bank, and follow up with a written dispute or fraud affidavit sent to your bank's dispute address from your statement.

    Do NOT use checking accounts, debit cards, or check cards  for any payments to anyone you do not know and trust.  Limit their use to payments to trusted creditors such as rent, mortgage, utilities, etc.  Use only credit cards for retail or online payments, as the fraud protections are stronger and it is less disruptive to block credit card numbers when fraud occurs.

    My daqughter and her husband had this scam happen to them in the US. Apparently, 'they' try it out with a small amount and if there is no reaction, they go on to take out more. On the advice of my daughter, I reported in to my Building Society and, when I went into my account tonight, the amount was re-funded.
    So, You all kinow what to do.

    This is a P.S. The Building society told me to cut up my card, which I did, and new card issued.
