I purchased a book, "The Forever War" and in the process of charging this to my account, I supposedly gave them permission to give me a trial membership in some kind of service. I do not remember doing such, and I contacted my charge card and they said they have no power to stop this monthly charge. I also called the publisher of the book and they acknowledged my concern, but cannot stop the continued charge.

I called and tried to cancel the membership and could not get through, now I have another charge on my card and am told by Elite Rewards that I have to cancel. I just called again, did not get a person, and they want my membership number and my phone number and my charge card number...It is a scam and I feel powerless to stop this charge.
