IP-RXCONNECT cold-called to order pharmaceuticals w/o prescription, company knew previous on-line pharmacy activity: no confirmation or return phone numbers

Received cold call asking if i wanted to "reorder" a pharamceutical product I had ordered on-line in the past [10, don't remember company and didn't need prescription at this time]. Placed order and was asked for prescription info. When stated i had no prescription, i was told this was okay—if i ordered a second product, the product requiring a prescription would be cleared for shipping. (how did i fall for this???)

When i was quoted a price and said it was too high, i was offered a different strength of the mediction at a lower price. I was quoted a different, lower price three times settling on $210 for 90 anorectic tabs and 30 tabs of an anxiolytic medication to be shipped in 4 business days.

I asked that the order be repeated. The indian sales person had to repeat my order at least 4 times before i could completely understand him. I apologized for the language barrier... He said i would be getting phentramine (?) the nonpharmaceutical brand of the anorectic agent—then whispered he had to say that because to say i was getting a prescription drug w/o a prescription was illegal. I asked again if i was actually getting the anorectic agent described. He repeated the same thing: quoted the non-pharmaceutical agent, then whispered the same excuse about the presciption medication. (and i still fell for this?!?)

After giving my credit card info, he said he would return my call in 10 minutes w / my order number. The call never came. After 20 minutes i called my credit card company. I was told the authorization number for the transaction had already gone through. I wanted to cancel my card, but was told by my company rep that this would be unnecessary—that these cold call companies screened their employees and they did not steal card numbers??? I feel even more stupid, now!!! But, why would my card company be so passive?

This order took place on 7/20/07. I received my credit card statement 8/1/07. The following number was listed beside the transaction:
IP-RXCONNECT.com 605.413.4728 KN. I called the number—of course, no one is available.
I checked the internet site: IP-RXCONNECT.com: to check product shipping information, the site asks for my credit card number, again, not an order number.
Please advise what i am to do next. Thanks
