I had ordered Orexis (Male enhancement pills) which I received on time after my prompt payment through my credit card. On the same month I received my credit card statement showing an unauthorized charge made by a company named "wellnesswatchersMD" which I never heard of before. I called my credit card company and placed a dispute on this charge of $ 59 (also a charge of $ 1 totalling $ 60). My credit card company removed both charges and held till the charge resolved. 2 months gone by and the charge reappeared on my credit card statement. This time I called "wellness WatchersMD" to find what the charge is about. they told me when I bought Orexis I had agreed to take membership with them which is totally untrue and I demanded a refund. They agreed to send me a form and to fill it out and mail back to them. At present I am in the process of sending the form to them and waitingand hoping to see my refund. So, people, stay away from Orexis and this scamming company called as "WellnessWatchersMD"!!!

Made purchase from Urban Nutrition. Clicked on "free shipping" icon. Pop-up window wanted my info in exchange for "free shipping". I closed pop-up window without giving my information. Didn't matter. Yesterday (8/27/08) my account was debited for 49.95 from WellnessWatchersMD.

Called 800-591-6383. Man answered. He wanted to mail me some paperwork. I told him I wanted the charge reversed and paperwork was not necessary to complete that process. He forwarded me to accounting voicemail. No one ever answered.

Called Urban Nutrition twice. First call, a man told me Wellness was an affiliate. Gave me a direct line to call 609-651-4936. Reached personal voicemail for a Janine Kinect (sp?). Second call, a man tried to give me same numbers. When I told him they were not good, he said he would transfer me to Michelle. Then left me on permanent hold.

Immediately went to google these two companies. Found multiple sites indicating the nature of this scam. Contacted my bank. Canceled my debit card. Challenged the charge on my account. Their debit card fraud department will credit funds and investigate.

Soon after recently purchasing a book from Barton Publishing I received a rather long email from WellnessWatchersMD which said in part:
“---- creating your Health and Fitness Profile -----“
“Your member name is -------“
“Your temporary password is -------“
“Try WellnessWatchersMD completely free for 14days.”
“If you decide WellnessWatchersMD is not for you, simply call us at ----“
“Otherwise it's $19.95 a month with an additional first month initialization fee of $9.95, billed to your credit card.”
I checked no boxes requesting any membership trial period from WellnessWatchersMD on my initial book purchase.
I’ve never heard of WellnessWatchersMD before never mind requesting a membership and giving them my personal details. I contacted my bank about this unsolicited email and found them very helpful.
Good luck, be careful, and wish I had known about www.complaintsboard.com before!
