International boundaries

I was lured into their website by the chance to enter their contest. You get 10 free bids upon entering their contest. Their site keeps leading you through sever screens to enter your information, including your credit card information. It appears that there is no other option to get to the end without pressing continue. Then all of a sudden you see that you've entered their service and will be billed $99 for bids on their site. I immediately went back to the website and sent an email message to them and responded to their Welcome email that I was mistakenly put through and did not want the service. I called to follow up on Monday to ensure they got my emails. They claim they did not. They refuse to refund me because it is their policy. They offered a 50% refund and the good news that I can use the remaining money to bid. The cost of each bid is $.75. if you bid, the money just gets eaten up, you don't get your money back if you lose the bid. Please help me get the balance refunded, I do not want to be a member of a bid site. Thank you.

I did some investigating into grabswag after being ripped off by these cronies and i found out who was behind this scam. GrabSwag.com, is a scam, partnered with a company called IMM Interactive/Copeac which is owned by Mike Krongel, which is a scam affiliate network that sends consumers to these sites via fake news articles and gets paid for it. If you click on one of the fake news sites that they are running below, and in internet explorer use webpage privacy, you will see emediatrack.com, on the privacy, which is owend by IMM Interactive/Copeac ( This is how I found out who was behind it). IMM Interactive and Mike Krongel has duped consumers out of millions of dollars says the FTC, by running fake news sites, like the one linked below, and they are currently being sued by the FTC, for false advertising and deceptive marketing practices, for using fake news websites like the one linked below. Here is a link to the lawsuit: http://www.ftc.gov/os/caselist/1023232/index.shtm

The FTC is trying to stop them but apparently can't. Lets get these people shut down!!! Report GrabSwag and IMM Interactive/Copeac, to the FTC, Attorney Generals, BBB, IC3, FBI and lets get a class action lawsuit going against both of these companies scambook!!!

Here is one of their fake news sites they are behind, which if you do webpage privacy in internet explorer on the grabswag page, you will see " emediatrack.com" which links you straight to Copeac/IMM Interactive: http://www.consumerinfonews.com/deals-of-the-century/index4.html

Here is a link to the IMM website and the grabswag site that says free, yet charges you $99 : http://www.imminteractive.?com
