Freedom subscriptions unauthorized bank withdrawal.internet fraud when applying for payday loan

A few fays ago, I applied for a payday loan, online.
Through some kind of phishing scam, this company debited my checking acct. For $69.95, which I discovered the next day.
I immediately called this company, and was advised that the fee is for "membership" in their club.
I advised them I never authorized this charge, and they agreed reluctantly to "cancel" my "membership" - and further said that they would send me a refund check... Within 2-3 weeks!
I called the fraud dept. At my bank, Bank of America, who is very familiar with this group, and they immediately reversed the $69.95 charge. I've also filed a police report with my local sheriff.

I want to caution ANYONE to not deal with this organization.
If victimized by these people, call your local police, file a complaint with the Federal trade commission, and most very importantly, file an online complaint with the FBI Internet crime complaint center. The authorities really need to understand the scope of these thieves, and the large number of victims they're making everyday.
Their address, 8550 W. Desert Inn #102 Las Vegas, NV 89117, is a UPS store!
