PWW* Google Internet Business Kit

Saw an authentic looking work-at-home Google Business kit using google adsense, listed as advertised and accepted by several UK media and business companies. Applied and was accepted, asked to pay a £1.29 one time set-up fee on my credit card. No other charges mentioned at all. NO business kit received in the post which was advertised, however, got an email about a week later, giving me details to log into my account at the above company using a no-reply email address at pacificwebworks.com, they had charged my account with was told only means of contact was to ring their headquarters in Utah, US which is expensive from the UK during their business hours (middle of the night for me) this I did and one the one occasion I got through got an answerphone, I have since followed this with a written letter but it does say on the email that cancellation can only be made by telephone and seems to be at their discretion. I have now contact my card issuer and asked for a stop on further payments in their favour. There is nothing in any of their "Ads" to say there is a monthly service charge and you do not know what this charge is until it appears on your statement (its not stated in the email!). Please don't get caught like I did!

deceptive advertising

Sir or Madam,
I recently responded to an internet advertisement that claimed that I could earn money
from Google and that there would be a one time charge of $2.95 US. I paid this amount on the internet using Visa and downloaded some instructions they provided.

The website is www.yourprofitgateway.com. Their address was listed as Salt Lake City.

Later when I checked with Visa to make sure that the amount deducted was in fact $2.95 US, they told me that this company would be deducting monthly charges unless I
cancelled the account within 7 days.

When I paid this “one time charge”, I never gave any authorization for this company to
deduct monthly charges and I’m outraged that they could even try to do such a thing.

Is there any way that this company can be prosecuted for false advertising especially
since they are using the Google name to entice fools like me into giving them my Visa
number. I have since cancelled my account with them and have an email to prove it so
I only lost the $2.95 US and maybe that’s the cost of my lesson to never give my Visa
number over the internet unless I totally trust the company.

Surely the Americans would frown on such practices that have bilked thousands of
Americans and Canadians and others out of $2.95 US.
I had trouble sleeping all night because when I attempted to cancel the account yesterday, they said I had to wait 24 hours. That’s another thing that infuriated me.

I suppose no government organization will help me and I have to take my loss lying down and my humiliation.
Thank you,
