  • Hi Marilyn,

    I am sorry to hear about your surprise about the charge to your credit card. We try very hard to make sure that any charge to our users' credit card is very clearly disclosed.

    Below is a screenshot of our sign-up form where the initial $99 bid pack is sold:

    I hope you will decide to give the site a try. GrabSwag is a very fun way to shop and if you win an auction, you will receive a product usually for between 70%-90% off retail. And even if you do not win, the cost of your bids can be applied to to price of the product. So really you cannot "lose" per se.

    Good luck in the auctions!

    Chief Operating Officer, GrabSwag.com

  • 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
