I applied for a lower interest credit card in May of 2001 and received it with no problem. My wife pays the bills and assumed I had made a purchase so she never suspected a scam. Today September 1, 2002, I was online looking at charges to my card and noticed a recuring bill of $39.95 every month. I contactacted the credit card company about the charges and was informed that I had subsribed to a pornographic website. I have no idea how these people got my card number, but they had created a phony e-mail account on yahoo.com in my name.
I had never visited a website or received e-mail from Global Intermedia. I DO NOT view poronographic material. I never signed up for anything.
The credit card company has stopped payment for the last three months, but I want my money back. They have stolen over $500 and I want justice. If you rob a 7-11 for $20 you get 3 to 5 years in prison. If I do get my money back, I want to see someone do time.
