Online Threat Alerts (OTA)

www.mediabugz.com - It is a Fraudulent Online Streaming Website

The website "www.mediabugz.com" is a fraudulent one. The website which claims that online users can watch movies, listen to music and play games, is similar to the fraudulent websites: www.geeker.com, lilplay.com, and tzarmedia.com. Online users who have used their credit cards on the fraudulent website (mediabugz), run the risk of their cards being fraudulently charged for undetermined amounts, even when they have canceled their subscriptions.

The Fraudulent Website - www.mediabugz.com

They (mediabugz) claim not to charge your credit card for the trial period but will do so anyway, even if you cancel before the trial period is up. Also, they will charge you to cancel your free registration, and will periodically charge your credit card for an undetermined amount of money. And, the website doesn't have some movies, books, and music it has advertised. I think this is another trick used to lure potential victims to the website.

Online user who have already subscribed to mediabugz.com, are asked to contact their credit card company or bank for help to prevent the fraudulent website from fraudulently charging their credit cards, or refund their money if their cards were already charged.

They told me I'd won a prize and only had to pay $1 shipping.

If they are taking money via your credit card, cancel the card and get a new one to them.

"Dear, with indignation I see suspicious amounts appearing on the Master Card statement in the last three months. It concerns equal amounts of € 49.95 for MEDIABUGZ.COM on 11/04/2019 11/05/2019 11/06/2019. These are equal amounts of € 49.95 for PLAYPROZ.COM on 13/04/2019 13/05/2019 13/06/2019. Check these amounts in the 3 appendices with the relevant references. When consulting the internet for those sites, I want to know what these companies mean via “Contact US”. I arrive at the same e-mail address. Suspicious for me! Can you explain to me which subscription it is about and how I took this subscription. If this is a valid subscription, give me the proof! If this is an incorrect subscription, not taken by me, I want you to refund these subscription fees, so € 49.95 x 2 x 3 is € 299.7. Thank you for your research and your answer, With best regards, Christiaan" Received via email.

I signed up about ten days ago. They took $74 odd 2 days ago and took another $76 today. Wish I'd been on top of my account I usually am. But have cancelled card and put disputes in with the bank. Wish me luck. That's a week's wages for me a stahm of 4
