USBI - One Web Direct Bill
Rip-off! Virus! United Kingdom phone charges

Our computer was attacked by a virus one night, and we left it on that night while trying to download a virus protection package. Soon after, we got a bill from One Web Direct Bill with about $180 in charges for calls made to an "entertainment" internet site in the UK, placed after we went to bed. Apparently, this is known as a "dialer virus."

It also stated that some portion of charges would be on our next telephone bill, in a separate bill from another company, which turned out to be USBI. We immediately wrote a letter to One Web giving notice of our claims under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and received a call shortly afterwards promising to rescind the charges.

We just got our SBC local telephone bill, and on a separate page, USBI charged us $73.63. SBC won't do anything but prevent the auto draft from paying this portion of the bill. We plan to write another notice letter, this time to USBI, which, we would guess is one and the same company scamming us, or at least part of the scheme.
