Are you using the e-mail address that you originally got pro with?

You may have changed e-mail accounts since getting pro, or if you have more than one e-mail account try them all

Have I been scammed?
 
Hi, I've just found this forum after days of trying to register at "limewire-software.com." I typed in Limewire at Ixquick and it gave me several choices. The one I went to was the official site - I thought. It even had the green lime etc. on it. I only meant to download the free one, but was cchatting to a friend at the same time. Next thing I knew it was asking for E27.76 - 2 payments ie. E17.88 and E9.88. I thought I had put in my e-mai address incorrectly, as I never received the e-mail confirming my membership and I've no way of contacting them as they look for the e-mail address if I go to try and contact them. I wonder have I been scammed. I even have the password they gave me, but I can't get into the site to use it! It looked very like the site you keep advertising in this forum.......

Signed: I'm an idiot!

This is definately a scam site and check out the real name of the site, RealMusicNow.com.

When you saw the name change/redirection you should have abandoned the transaction.

You've read the forum and now you know what to do.

check it out
 
just been playing around, typed in limewire and followed the instructions on each individual sites, there is probably thousands just a few- called alllimewire.com limewire-muzic, download mp3 no wonder so many people are being scammed, maybe the limewire logo could incorporate the slogan
"if you gotta pay it aint the real limewire"

Gotta love these scam sites, of course after the 30 days was up they decided to answer my numerous email requests with a sorry your times up. So I sent them my zillion emails telling them no it wasn't and stop playing games. Next email was your refund is being processed LOL.:D

I have just realised that I too have been scammed. I paid using an option for two year membership at 60p a month for free unlimited access from the saem site on the first page of this topic. I am in the Uk and I am deaf and not used to using Pcs. I am going to go straight to my bank in the morning to cancel the subscription. Any other advice for me folks? I really like the Limewire, its brilliant and would be happy to get the Pro, but first am gonna sort out things with my bank in the morning. What should I say to them? I feel such a fooool! I am frightened to think how much money has been taken out of my account even though I only signed up 3 days ago...Can I get it back?

phoenixxx minder August 17th, 2005 02:58 PM

60p per month
 
Is that direct debit or standing order at 60p per month or the equivalent, if its either of the first 2 then just cancel, if you paid a total price you will have to go back to the source and demand your refund. the bank wont be able to do anything or at least I dont think they can.
