My daughter is a single mother on a very tight income. She exitedly told me that she had placed an order for the juverneu and hydroxatone creams for the advertised trial price of £1.99 for each and gave indiviualy her card details for each cream. She had read that, if after 14 days she decided she did not want the cream, she could phone a number given to cancell, or, she would then be billed for the full amount of each cream and there after be sent the creams every month where by her card would be debited for the ammounts. I, her mother looked up the sight and tried to phone the number given. Getting no responce I became suspicious. I then found an address they had given that led one to believe that it was Suite B29 Harley St. London. W1G9QR.
I was in London the following day and decided to follow up on my suspicions. I went to every building in Harley St and made enquiries with a city post man who told me he had been delivering in the street for years and that he had never heard of a suit number being so high and the only building with suit numbers was 22. Ofcourse I checked this out. However, I tried the phone number again and I eventually got an american woman. I told her that I wished to purchase the creams and that as I was in Harley St, could she give me her building number so that I could call in person. This she would not give me and told me that the only way I could purchase the creams were on line by using my credit or debit cards. Knowing by then there was no Harley St address, I knew without doubt this was a scam and I contacted my daughter to tell her to withdraw all of her money and close her account down imediately because this is the only way to ensure that these scammers to not get any more of your money. Hopefully, they have not taken more than the £3.98, wich is about the same in dollars. $3.98, but we have discovered this scam within a few days of them having my daughters details.
