Help! My mp3 downloads are changing to m3u
 

Hi Everyone! I am new to the forum. I had an older version of LW that I used just fine but someone uninstalled it :mad: and now that I have paid to install a newer version of LW it is driving me crazing! I have Vista, LW 4.16.6, and a cable connection. Everything downloads to my library great. However, every time I save a song to my downloaded folder it changes my mp3 file to a m3u file and my Creative Zen will not play m3u. What is making it change??? Any suggestions? I hate to think I just spent $49.95 for something I can't use because somebody trashed my free version I could use. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hmm... $49.95??? I think you may have been Scammed. LW has Never been said price.
Probably should get an Authentic Version of Pro here.
Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent «.

It is authentic, I can assure you. If you would like to go to Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent « and see what I downloaded, feel free.

This is what I see. Can you explain the $49.95 Price that you said you paid?? Your receipt should say Limewire LLC

Limewire Scam
 

:aweof: 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. :bangh: 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.

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.

Scam
 

When I clicked on the LW site, I was redirected to Limewire.softdir.info
Click Get LimeWire 2008 NOw, and fill in your e-mail and click, then click download on the next page, then you will be at the final page I was at that said 49.95. Check it out and tell me if you think it is authentic or I should contest it, because now you have me doubting what I did. I hope for my sake your wrong, but I have a sinking feeling you may be right.

Hey, Sorry, but now and I mean NOW!! Call your Financial Institution and Report this Scam. You may even need to Cancle your CC if that was the Payment of Choice.

Scam
 

I will do it now. Will come back and let you know what happens. Thanks for the heads up.

I just got off the phone with someone in India about my issue. She told me that I would have to call Click Bank to return my money because it already went through. I asked her if I called during business hours if I could talk to someone higher in authority since I had never heard of not being able to contest a purchase. Is there anything else I can do? Did you type in the address I gave you? The weird thing is I originally was in Lime Wire but was redirected to that site. I just thought it was who Lime Wire used for their financial transactions. I am so stinking mad!!!

I got a refund!
 

:yahoo:I received a notice today that they have refunded the 49.95 to my credit card. Thank you for the heads up.
:thankyou:
