I saw a solicitation on line while looking at what I thought was a reputable website and followed the link. The original offer was for a free sample for the cost of shipping - $3.25. There was no indication that in signing up for this that I was going to be charged a monthly fee of $74.95 for this product. When the first monthly installment arrived I called the phone number provided and told them I didn't want the product and had not intended to buy a monthly subscription to it. They were very nice and told me how to return the bottle and that I would receive a credit for it once it was returned. I took the bottle to the post office and got a Delivery Confirmation Receipt for the package. The Post Office recorded their receipt of the package on April 4th. I did not receive a credit to my account, but I did get another charge, sans bottle to my account on April 12. I have notified my credit card company that I consider this transaction a fraud on my account and that they should refuse any further transactions from this company. So far the free sample has cost me $153.15. I don't think they are in the USA, because each charge has included a foreign transaction charge.
