They stole over 250.00 from my checking account without my permission even though I canceled within 14 days, this was from 4 different places with 4 different phone numbers and states ... I did not even receive the trial offer for over 12 days to begin with... DO NOT SUBMIT CREDIT CARD INFO
I did NOT order any of these products, yet I was charged for them. They had ALL my personal information, but had created a fake email address.
Contact your bank and have them cancel the transactions and refund your money. You may need to cancel your current credit card and get a new credit card, in order to stop the scammers from charging the current one.
Received via email:"I am the victim of a Garcinia Cambodia scam. I don't know how it started, if I possible signed for a free trial or what, but I noticed on my bank statement that there were three debits from SIM*Garcinia R inside of 6 weeks. The first was for $4.99 and 1.00. This is why I think it was perhaps a free trial, however I never received any product, nor do I have a memory of any such order. As a matter of fact I did order a bottle of GC from Swansons about that same time, which I did receive. That's why I don't even think I ordered a free trial from a different company: Why would I?In any case, three weeks later, on Dec 27, there was an automatic withdrawal from my bank account using my Debit card for 89.95 from this company and another withdrawal of $89.95 two weeks later on Jan 12, 2017. I called the bank, and they gave me the phone number of the company, but all I got was a private answering service. They went round in circles, insisted their records showed I had received an order in December which I never did and that another order was on the way. They simply kept reading off their script, first offering a 30% refund, and when I insisted I had received NOTHING and wanted a total refund offering a 50% refund.I've canceled my debit card so no further charges can be made, and am disputing the charges, but meantime I'm out almost $200 for something I never ordered and never received."
Wished I read the alert. Just got taken when I was only suppose be charged for shipping of $4.95 on a free trial bottle.~ Got charged twice even when I tried to cancel on the automated recording and it confirmed the cancellation. No one ever answers when I call. Besides getting charged 4.95 x 2, additional charge of 38.71 was taken from them also.
Contact your bank.
