I logged in on www.govssnrecords.org and provided my password and my SSN. Then I was asked to pay 24.92
So I thought... well... nothing is for free.
Then I suddenly realized that I was transferred to "inteligator.com"... then they asked me for money again...
2.95 for a 4 day trial and 19.95 if I don't cancel. So I paid 2.95.
I needed to do a criminal background check and was asked another 29.95.
I don't mind paying for something, but I would like to know the odds before I start.
Obviously I canceled everything... by the way there are two email addresses
[email protected] and
[email protected]
Make sure you spell inteligator with one 'L' only
You probably need to provide the "charge code", email-address and password... I don't know.
Anyway I brace for lots of hassle with the Credit-Card and this lot.
Here is a tip:
Call the Credit-Card company and report your card as stolen. Then you get a new number and they cannot charge you any longer. Legally you still have to pay since you entered a contract, but the repetitive charging is clearly fraudulent, since you made an honest effort to cancel the subscription.
Do not even bother to call the Credit-Card company and complain about fraudulent charges. You will call 5 consecutive numbers holding 45 minutes each and talking to a computer repeating your Credit Card number multiple times and so on.
This is what you do:
Send the Credit Card company a certified letter.
State all the facts and add the following sentence:
"Unless you refund my money in full, I will refrain from using my card in the future"
This worked for me... they refunded me over $200 in a similar case.
Banks are pragmatic people, they like to keep their costumers.
And you will get a new Credit-Card anywhere.
