My wife, who is an otherwise bright woman saw this site entitled Google Prifits Insider and thought it interesting and inexpensive enough to try... They only wanted $1.95 for a CD with ideas for setting up webpages to gather google income. Since she is recently disabled and wanted to do something from home for income, this sounded like a reasonable idea.
Well, the CD never came. I started seeing charges on our credit account from this company in Arizona. When asked, my dear wife assured me the only charge she had authorized was this initial $1.95. So, with this, I called our bank and asked that the $47.50 charge and $99.00 charge be disputed. Fortunately they have an excellent fraud division.
I had tried to dispute the item with the vendor, however, I was unable to talk directly with the Google Profits company because their voicemailbox was full and accepting no further messages.
This is a classic lure and drain scam. I wonder how many unsuspecting folks have been drawn to this site and given their credit cards for the $1.95.
