Should I Close My Credit Card Account Because of a Scam?
Monday, April 13th, 2009stepcmpb asked:
Ok, I’m a little embarrassed to admit this, but I fell for scam in a moment of weakness. I bought these diet pills called “Acai Berry” (PLEASE DON”T EVER SIGN UP FOR A TRIAL OFFER). The company had a trial offer for $4.58. I bought the product with my credit card (dumbest thing in the world). The problem is they charged my credit card for $69. I tried calling their customer service number to cancel the order and the number is always busy. This is what they do to scam their customers. I was advised that the only way to stop them from taking any more money is close the account. I don’t want to close the credit card account because it will hurt my credit score. Is there anything else I can do? Trust me, you guys don’t have to tell me how stupid it was. I’m fully aware of that now.
