The site does not advertise that when you register you will be charged $99. Nor does it confirm payment has been made. You think you are registering just in case you buy something and need to pay (like on ebay). When you ask for a refund they refuse. Here is what you get when you ask what the $99 charge on your visa is for:

Thank you for submitting your refund request. At Bidrack, we always strive to go the extra mile for our customers & ensure you are satisfied.

As our policy states we have a strict no refund policy. Refunds are only given if the charge was placed fraudulently. Based on the information submitted We regret to inform you we are unable to refund your account.

We are very sorry for this misunderstanding

  • Fraud must be proved by showing that the defendant's actions involved five separate elements: (1) a false statement of a material fact,(2) knowledge on the part of the defendant that the statement is untrue, (3) intent on the part of the defendant to deceive the alleged victim, (4) justifiable reliance by the alleged victim on the statement, and (5) injury to the alleged victim as a result.

  • Fraud resembles theft in that both involve some form of illegal taking, but the two should not be confused. Fraud requires an additional element of False Pretenses created to induce a victim to turn over property, services, or money. Theft, by contrast, requires only the unauthorized taking of another's property with the intent to permanently deprive the other of the property. Because fraud involves more planning than does theft, it is punished more severely.

  • All states maintain a general criminal statute designed to punish fraud. In Arizona, the statute is called the fraudulent scheme and artifice statute. It reads, in pertinent part, that "[a]ny person who, pursuant to a scheme or artifice to defraud, knowingly obtains any benefit by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, promises or material omissions" is guilty of a felony (Ariz. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 13-2310(A)).

  • Dan. Thanks for this - I feel like such a heel - until I read their site. They ON PURPOSE imply that you merely register. There is no mention of the $99 fee on the BidRack website. They obviously try to conceal this.
