A door to door scam artist came to my door selling books. I purchased the overpriced books. However, the real scam happened when she used my bank information to pull a monthly automatic payment out of my account. Apparently the receipt I signed gave SW advantage the ability to steal a monthly payment. I called the company figure out what was happening. They told me I had subscribed to the website because I signed the receipt. She mentioned that there were articles and study guides on the website. I asked if she could send me printed articles. I figured at least I would have have something for all of the money they stole from me. She refused to send me anything. If anybody is thinking about being a customer to this company "Please don''t buy anything!" They came to my front door and sold me printed books and steal from the back door. When she came to my door I hesitated because of the price and the fact that I had beed laid off from work. Yet I let the scam artist convince me it was somewhat an investment to my children's education. Little did I know that I would be shelling out $20 a month for the next several months! Talk about a wolf in sheep's clothing. If I ever see those people walking around they are going to hear it from me!

  • I am curious if you actually saw a resolution or if you had to pursue a legal avenue as I am about to do? Were you reimbursed for the fraudulant charges?
