I signed up for the 7-days free trial atforeclosure.com, thinking nowadays it's safe to put your credit cardinformation in the hand of an internet service company. After all, I had beenusing all kinds of internet services for years, never had any issue with anycompany.
To my superise, this was the first time Iexperienced the rip-off practice on the internet. After registering with mycredit information and receiving the access code, I copied and pastedthe access code into the login box, but the website gave me"That access number does not exist" message. I tried many times onmany different dates, the results were all the same.
To make sure I was not going to be changedfor a service that I was never able to use, I followed the instruction on the foreclosurewebsite to cancel my registration before the 7-day "free trial"expired. The website gave me the exact same message as on the login page: "That access number does not exist". I tried many times, theresults were all the same.
I didn't understand what was wrong with theirsystem and just thought if my account did not exist then I would not becharged. I later discovered other real-estate professional websites thatprovide unlimited free access to enormous property databases and that have all-kindsof well-thought out features and tools. I found a few dream homes for myself, my relatives and friends at the rock-bottom prices by using those websites. Because I was busy with finding and visiting the properties, making offers andclosing sales, I did not double check my credit card bills withmy husband, who paid all bills.
