TLG Great Fun
Unauthorized charges

TLG*GreatFun is part of Trilegiant, Inc. I also have fallen victim to their fraudulent practices and just noticed today that I have been being charged $14.99 per month since Sept '09.in August '09 my husband purchased airline tickets on Virgin America and shortly there after, the charges started. I just got the new statement today and asked him about it thinking it was something he had purchased. He thought I had purchased something and that's what they count on.

Google TLG Great Fun and Trilegiant... You'll be amazed. They have already been sued and have supposedly paid out over 40 MILLION dollars. Can you imagine... This is obviously a BILLION Dollar business and the current judgements are a drop in the bucket. Someone need to go to jail. One of the law firms who handled the big suit was Girard Gibbs LLP (866) 981-4800 in San Francisco. You should be able to find them when you Google TRILEGIANT, I did. I e-mailed them this evening to see if there is any recourse. I've done a lot of reading tonight.

It appears that when you shop online, some vendors allow TRILEGIANT to inset pop-ups at the end of the transaction which lure you with a rebate of discount by clicking. I suspect that our credit card information is still active at this point and whether you click or not Trilegiant has access to that information without our authorization. I know that sometimes we are curious and click to see what's up and then upon reading what the offer is and deciding to decline, exit out thinking no harm done since I told them nothing. Well, that's not always the case I guess. Every time you transact business online you create COOKIES. Cookies are bits of information most likely including name, address and form of payment information that can be passed along to a third party.

I think the vendors who allow Trilegiant this pop-up power should be held just as liable for enabling these fraudulent practices. I, for one, will be corresponding with these vendors and demanding that these practices stop. I will also boycott those vendors who allow these pop-ups.in addition, credit card issuers will be contacted since many of them had joined with Trilegiant in the past in these practices. My State Legislator, Congressman, and Senators will also be copied on the correspondence.

There are too many people out there being taken advantage of. How dare they steal out money! It's stealing because they give us nothing for the money they take. Did you ever get any membership information? Did you ever have a chance to OPT-OUT? Did you ever give your permission? Look at how many resources are being wasted... Our time, our money, credit card fraud dept time, etc., etc.

Please people, don't just get mad a gripe... Do something about it.
