Credit card billed $250 after hotel bid was rejected

I tried using priceline.com, made an offer on a hotel room for Buffalo, they rejected my offer, but billed my credit card anyway for $250.00. I did not check into the hotel... All I did was make an offer on priceline.com, the site gave me back a message saying they could not accept the offer, so I exited the site and assumed because they did not accept my offer that my credit card would not be billed. I got an email from them the next day telling me to try again using a higher price, or different criteria, but I did not. The credit card company has been notified. When I contacted Priceline they refused to do anything about it. How can these people get away with such blatant and fraudulent activity on people's credit cards. I will never again use any online service that asks for my credit card upfront before agreeing on a price... That should have been a clue to me. The fact is, the site is fraudulent, and a scam, and no one seems to be doing anything about it.
