My wife had received a bill for $30.00 stating that a Pay-Per-View Website had been accessed on 11/03/04 from Premier Premium Communications. The billing detail specifies that the call/access number was derived from the UK (444 207 335 44). Nobody was at our home on this day and it would have been impossible for us to have used our PC.
When I had attempted to call the number on the evening that the bill was received in order to find out what the charges were for, I had reached a recording stating to call back during business hours, Mon - Fri. Considering that it was Friday evening, I had to wait until today.
Instead of calling, I had attempted to research the Premier Premium Website and access this so-called account. After my inquiry, I had immediately received an email giving details upon the visited site which we had accrued these charges. I, then, tried to find the website (http://www.realplugin.com/cgi-bin/pluginstall. Cgi? Wm=c2c1d0f8&did=779&pl=index02.html)
and nothing existed. So, now, it's in dispute and I've yet to hear from them.
Amazingly, when I was searching for Premier Premium, there were multiple matching sites that have stated that this is a scam. I have not, yet, reported this activity to any other agencies but, as soon as I get a response from Premier regarding my disputed charges, I will definitely post the results.
