I am getting the following email from UK National Lottery, and would like to warn everyone that it's a scam. Here is a copy of one of the emails: "We happily announce to you the Draw (#1116) of the UK NATIONAL LOTTERY, online UK National Lottery program held on 24th May, 2007. Your e-mail address...

camouflageids.com and noveltyidforum.org are a scam. I paid them using e-gold and never got my IDs. I emailed camouflageids.com but never got a response. After 4 weeks of trying & trying I just gave up. From what I could gather on the internet all fake ID sites are a big scam. They all use...

I fell for the advertised "Free credit report" and requested it through freecreditreport.com. I should have spent time reading the terms of the service, but I hope my lesson will be a warning for you. I got my free report from this website. Two months later I noticed two charges from "CIC Triple...

Some "CJW Holdings" has debited my checking account for $84.97 on June 5th, 2007 without my authorization for a product that I know nothing about. The website that I apparently "bought from" is Extremeleanrx.com. They sell diet pills. I don't need any diet pills, and would never shop at such scummy...

Stay Away from Singlesnet. They have fake profiles at the website, and the whole purpose of the site is to get your information like credit card, name, and address. This site is a complete scam from the beginning: there is always 500 people online no matter what state/time you are online. After you...

I purchased a Canon A710 on line from The Digital Nerds(http://thedigitalnerds.com/). In my email receipt they asked to call them to confirm my order. I dialed the number right away. The person on the line confirmed my order and told me that I am missing several accessories. I replied that I am...

Quick Card Services took $49.95 out of my checking account on 03/21/2007 and I didn't authorize this transaction. Now I am paying $180 in overdraft charges and insufficient funds. I don't even know who they are, or what they stand for. My bank gave me a number to call and when I did it was a...

I placed my order for the Popular Science magazine with MagsForLess in December 06. I used Google Checkout, hoping it will add to the confidence that this order will be processed correctly. No magazines arrived and it's already 6 months since my order. I sent MagsForLess repeated inquiries with no...

I subscribed to their $49.95 per month plan in April. 10 days later I decided to cancel my membership because I found something that fits my needs better. They have a 14 day cancellation requirement, so I thought I will be fine. I tried to contact them about the cancellation via email but received...

I subscribed to their service on their website. A week later I canceled the membership because I didn't find it worth the money they charge. However, a month later I've noticed a deduction on my credit card statement of $14.95. The transaction was made by ATHOMEREWASRDS. I wrote them several emails,...

We went to LimeWire website on Sunday 13 may to download music. We clicked to pay 1 pound 66 pence. We paid this amount using my visa debit card. I checked my account later and saw that, to my surprise, they charged me 34 pounds and 1 pence. Moreover, they charged me again the very next day with 34...
