Here is how it works.
-You try to buy filesharing software from these guys for what seems like a reasonable price (about $30)
-in tiny print there is line that says you get tecnical support and buried in lower right corner is a charge of 9.88 per month. You have to uncheck the box not to get this.
-The payment summary where you pay is clever to say that the amount they say you are getting charged is what you will be charged 'taday' no where does it mention the monthly cost.
-so next month you get the monthly bill of $9.88.
-assuming you notice you can call and get it cancelled.
-but what they count on is that you don't notice for a few months and they make their money for a few months for basically nothing.
Simple and not illegal, just a clever rip-off.
