  • You're going to have to give a bit more information. What happened? Which company? Did you sign up for a free trial then assume it ended once the free trial was up?

    I agree wth the other posters about needing more information.

    However, I bet that when it comes down to it, you were not really conned at all - more likely you just signed up for a free trial and didn't cancel before the end of the trial.

    I'm happy to be proved wrong in your case - but the reality is almost every thread that mentions 'con', 'scam' 'rip-off' or other such terminology in the title turns out not to be when the facts are revealed.

    I've not been conned - but I HAVE been ripped-off and scammed.
