I agreed to pay for shipping and not the product. I call spoke to someone and was told that I was only going to be charged shipping and nothing else all I had to do was send back the merchandise. Well, I never received any merchandise. I was charged 2 days later by electronic check for 49.95.

I had the same problem recently. I filled out a survey on-line. They asked for my bank account number for shipping. They used my information and debited two electronic checks from my bank account. The amounts were for 58.93 and 49.95.

I had never authorized the charges. It caused me to inadvertently use my debit card not knowing my account was overdrawn. Every time I used my debit card, I got charged $30.00. I just found this all out when I went to put money into my account to pay my bills.

I had to file an affidavit for forgery and take most of my money out, and then open a whole new account.

They cost me over $200.00 in charges for insufficient funds.

The bank will try to get some of the money back. But, I still can't pay my bills.

I too ordered the free trial. I did receive the pills but could not take then because of medication I am taking. I called to cancel right away. The man said ok he would cancel my order. Only thing is two checks had already been written on my account. One for $49.95 and one for $58.95. I wish I had seen the complaint board before ordering. I spoke with my bank and I can contest the charges so that is what I am going to do. I will make a copy of all the complaints to help my case.

There are 41 other complaints on this board about this company BUT I wanted to post a complaint where my solution stays at the top of the post so that more people can take action.

Momentum Direct never cashed my online check for the sample, never sent the sample and then took $49.95 out via an online check. Then they hit me again for $58.93 one week later. Hours on the phone with the Bank, etc., etc. After reading all the complaints on this board (and others, just google the company and you'll find them) I decided to go after their websites.

As a webmaster, I was easily able to track down who hosts their sites...it's a simple solution...no website, no scam! Any website domain name registrar (the ones who sold them the names like momentumdirect.net, 20minutefacelift.com, etc. have policies that they won't use the domain for fraudulent activity, racism, hate speech, etc.) Same with the companies who actually HOST their websites (the place where their files and pictures and graphics are actually stored online to be viewed by unsuspecting people like all of us...those who end up on the site to get set up for ripoffs.) Again, do the math...no website, no innocent people to attack.

Bank of America (my bank) has received MANY, MANY complaints against them but they CANNOT block a company and they can hit you over and over again by simply changing the amount of the check...the creeps at Momentum Direct are sophisticated and savvy and think they can keep getting away with their scam because they have been doing so for YEARS.

Fact is folks, the FBI doesn't have the money or manpower to track and arrest baby rapers and online stalkers of children which means they don't have the resources to stop the thousands upon thousands of little ripoff scam artists like Momentum Direct.

If you really care about stopping them, join me in sending an email to Cedant, the company who HOSTS their site:
[email protected] and detail in your email what they did to you.

THEN, if you're really motivated by being ripped off and having these little trolls cause so much havoc in your life and your bank account, send a letter to the registrar of momentumdirect.net (the people who sold them that domain name) detailing what was done to you:
TierraNet
P.O. BOX 502010
San Diego, CA 92150-2010

If enough complaints are received, they WILL have their websites shut down and it's a heck of a lot quicker than slogging through overworked, underfunded and understaffed agencies like the FBI, the Texas Attorney General and the BBB! DO file complaints with them as well though because squeaky wheels do eventually get greased and the sheer number of complaints will most likely lead to arrest and conviction...do your part to stop these predators and help keep other people from being defrauded as well!

I was charged to my checking account 48.95 plus a charge of 58.93. of stuff that they so say i received. I also had 3 nsf charges to the account that caused me to overdraw on the account.
