I signed up for the "make money at home, working for Google, and doing computer links" scam. It appeared the signup was free, but when I read the fine print, the chaerges were around $135.00. I cancelled within 48 hours, and got a cancellation confirmation number, and the name of the person I spoke to. Thankfully, I retained this information! Over two months later, I received a letter from a collection department informing me that my debit card had been declined when they attempted to charge men $139.95 because I "failed to contact Internet Profit Library Membership within 14 days to cancel my membership". Seems I also failed to "return the unused portion within 30 days". They threatened to turn my account over to their collection agency, and warned me about a "negative effect on your credit report and score."
Fortunately, I keep a minimum amount in that account, so they didn't actually get any money. Of course, I have had to cancell that card, and apply for another.
