Scamming - Fraud
Nusiczum st www.musiczum.com is a fraudulent content streaming website. The website which claims it will deliver all your favorite movies, music, and games across all your favorite platforms, 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, run the risk of their cards being fraudulently charged for undetermined amounts, even when they have cancelled their subscriptions.
They (musiczum.com) 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 periodical 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 musiczum.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.

When one sees websites such as these, look for payment options such as PayPal.When it becomes obvious that PayPal is not offered as a Payment or subscription method,take it as evidenve that the webiste membership is extremely risky.DO NOT SIGN UPAn alternative way is to obtain A Pre-Paid Debit card.Such a card is MOT linked to your bank account, and the card holds only the value that one has paid into it.So when the card holds the most minimum amount, that is all that can ever be svammed/withdrawn from it.You are the winner .. One cannot get money out of a stone dead debit card.Remember .. ALWAYS USE A PRE-PAID DEBIT CARD where YOU contol the amount of CREDIT the card holds. [Aydin Nasilsin] All th ebest everyone and take care.
How do I stop them accessing my account as I signed up with them.
You may need to cancel the credit card you used on the website and get a new one. If you didn't use a credit card, cantact your bank for help.
I didn't sign up for this but was charged £1.90 with £45 and change pending. I notified my bank and they cancelled my card. How they got my information, I don't know. Just glad I checked my account before the money was taken out.
I haven't been charged anything but afraid I will be. They advertised an eBook I can't find elsewhere, but after creating a trial account it's clear there was never access to this particular eBook.So, I promptly canceled my account but then found these blogs/warning sites about BestBooks/MusicZum being fraudulent. Should I contact my bank preemptively?
The same thing happened to me. Interestingly enough I got the information that the e-book was available via a Google Alert that I have for the name of the author-William Cobbett. I receive dozens of such notifications now each week.
