Default Limewire Scam

You are so right. After looking at what you posted, I did some more investigation on my own and I have indeed been scammed. I paid 49.95 for free LW. I don't know how it happened but when I clicked on LW website I was rerouted. And of course now I can't get back to it. Anyways, my receipt says click bank and it advertised a onetime 49.95 fee, i just assumed it was a better deal than the re-ocurring price for the pro. So any suggestions on how to proceed now? I am calling my card to contest the charge.
I did find this when I was looking:

CLICKBANK MARKETPLACE LIMEWIRE PRO SCAM Boise Idaho

Clickbank lures you in with a FALSE link claiming to be the official limewire website and offer you the limewire pro service. They take your important information and charge you and you get the download (which is free on the limewire website anyway) but you dont get the service. I contacted limewire about the situation and they said that they do not allow any other companies to sell their Limewire PRO software.

I called my company and disputed the charges immediately. This company is a fraud. I have read many other reports of fraudulant transactions under many different schemes such as I(((REDACTED FOR SECURITY PURPOSES))),etc.

Report: Clickbank Marketplace

Clickbank Marketplace They charged me 49.90 and I have no idea for what. I thought this company was connected to my Ipod Boise Idaho

This company charged my car $49.00 and I can not trace the company. A pop-up came up on my screen when I connected my IPOd. I have tried to reach the company, and can not get my money back.
