I was curious about an old friend that I knew years ago. I did a simple search and was directed to one of the "hijack" sites, PublicRecords.com. Which stated that for $2.95, I could obtain any address associated with this individual. I went thru the hoops and paid the requested amount thru my debit card. The returned report didn't provide any relevant information. I sent an email thru this company's site requesting that the membership that had been established be immediately cancelled.
Upon checking my debit card account today, I discovered that this company had additionally debited an additional $19.95 from my account. I sent an email to this company stating that they were to immediately remove the additional charge from my debit account.
These types of companies use all sorts of gimmicks that they hide behind to rip people off. I have to admit that I smelled a scam of sorts, but went ahead with the $2.
