CleanCredit.com NetDetective Harris Digital Publishing ripoff, fake 'banking address match errors during CC processing' resulting in additional 'negative balances and holds on account charged'ripoff

My Story follows this important info:

On August 26, the California Attorney General filed a Lawsuite, case no. 816741, alleging that the company and its principles misrepresented that they would remove inaccurate, outdated, or unverified information from a subscriber's credit report when they did not have the authority to do so, represented that they could obtain credit reports at no cost, without disclosing that the consumers who responded to the offer are often enrolled and charged for their services without their consent. The suit also alleged that the company failed to obtain the proper registration, bond, and that they failed to perform the services within 6 months as required by law. The lawsuit is seeking equitable relief for consumers.

OTHER CLEARCREDIT.com INFO: (per their website 9/30/03)
"the name and address of our agent for service of process is: Jamie A. Mazur, 2224 Main Street, Santa Monica, California 90405. This is our principal business address as well. To submit a claim against the surety (the issuer of our bond), their name and address is Fidelity & Deposit Company of Maryland; Post Office Box 98, Louisville, Kentucky, 40201-0098."

MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE WITH THEM:
Clearcredit/Cleancredit.com - I received a FREE GIFT for A FREE TRIAL MEMBERSHIP WITH NO OBLIGATION from NetDetective (Harris Digital Publishing). I went to sign up at clearcredit.com (from a link provided by NetDetective's website for members).

I signed up for OPTION 1 - NO COST TRIAL (per website Agreement... Your credit card will NOT be charged for 3 days (or 5 days in California) in which you may cancel the trial or you will then (after the Trial Period) be charged for $49.95 membership.

During sign up online, I provided complete and fairly accurate billing address information.

Well, upon hitting SUBMIT, a FALSE ERROR message came back saying that 'Address did not match bank's address information for cardholder'.

So, I got out my bank statments and compared, oh, I see, it should be Avenue not AVE. So, I 'corrected the address' and tried again, got the same FALSE ERROR about bad address.

I tried several more times, switching around Abbreviations for West and Avenue, etc., and then got a "Tried too many times error", session cancelled... The membership was never even completed.

well, next day... NEGATIVE $249 on my bank account for FIVE $49.95 Transactions by clearcredit.com / cleancredit.com

BOGUS, BOGUS, FRAUD!!! There was not 'address problem' that
was just a ruse to get ME to press SUBMIT button five times racking up five charges.

Anyone know of any lawsuits... I'm filing with FTC, FBI, AG, etc... Any more in line???

Who OWNS that damn company???

Thanks!
