I am also among the growing bunch of people being scammed by PPC. I just got my bill this weekend for 2 calls to the UK at 44 207 335 84. I have not received my regular phone bill to see what damage was done there. This bill of $45 was only for 11/28/04. I can't wait to see what they want for December!
My wife was doing some Christmas shopping online when she ran into some wierd problems with internet explorer. The system locked up and we had to reboot. Since then, my connection will disconnect at random times and pop-up window comes up saying "Thank you for visiting our website". It then shows another pop-up with three porn images and some text. When I try to reconnect, I get an error that the modem is already in use even though I can no longer browse the internet! At that point, I usually reboot.
I appreciate reading what others have done in terms of reporting this. I will follow suit and contact the BBB, FTC, FCC.
