frekle22 is flying high
Default I got my money back after 2 months

I didn't realize Frostwire was free until a did a little searching on the internet and found this site. I had paid $37 for it though mp3musichq.com in October. After I found out it was a scam I called the 24 hour support line to get my money back. I came right out and said I know the business you are doing is a scam and that I want my money back. He told me that I could not get a refund since it had been 2 months since I downloaded it. I threatened to report them to the FBI and as soon as I said that he was very quick to get me my refund. He said he was going to have to charge me $9.95 for processing fees. I told them that was illigal since I should have never paid for the service in the first place. I threatened with the FBI again and he said he would waive that fee and I ended up getting my $37 back.
I find it very intresting that as soon as a threaten to report them to the FBI they were very quick to give me my money back.
DON'T EVER GO TO MP3MUSICHQ.com IT IS A SCAM!!!!!

mp3musichq.com is also a scam site. They charge you for Frostwire and then tack on a charge for a bogus virus scan sweeper.

There's no phone number for support.

If you've been scammed, read this thread (start from page 1)...you'll see what to do

Default I'm another sucker!

I've been getting ripped off by this mob for over 10 months now just found it in my bank statement and wondered what it was ended up here.

Thanks for letting me know!

Not only just under $10US a month but also a small fee from bank for conversion to $US.

I'm not at all surprised that our banks don't inform us what they may know to be fraudulent activity on our accounts when they benefit from it too!!!

I
just wonder how many people never actually check their bank statements to even know that they are being ripped off by these utter *******s.


I'm juist going to accept my loss and get the bank to cancel this activity

jennibear, you need to contact your bank/CC company right away & let them know what's happened. They might advise you to cancel your card.

I don't know how long ago you signed up for the scam deal, but maybe this thread will help. It's referring to LW users but the advice is still good
get your $$$ BACK!!! (music members)

Thanks to your posts about scams and the REAL sites FAQ's and info about the true cost of LW Pro, I realized I had also paid $$$ to a site obviously scamming me. Of course, my DL was the actual LW site so how would I know if I hadn't read further? When the bill came in I flagged it and contacted my CC company and they didn't even question it- they immediately credited me for the amount charged. Thank God! I felt like such an idiot to be sucked in like that! These people are really evil and prey on those of us who are "newbies" to all this. BUT...I'm learning!
