Fortunately, I'm not so stupid to spend more than $35... apparently tons of other people have lost thousands of dollars to the same people, but what are my chances of getting that $35 back? haha. CRAP I'm so mad at myself.

Ohhh.
It was the "Greatest Vitamin in the World" crap. Where they swear the whole thing is free. I am such a sucker, I really can't believe I fell for it.

To the girl who was saying that her information was sold to other scammers - frankly, that is my biggest concern. IT IS TOO LATE NOW, I already screwed up. But I had no idea what the worst could be, until now. They're very clever, because I didn't know who to look up information about, until I had already been sucked in. Dumb me.

I got taken for $500 once, but I later found the guy and smashed his hand in a car door.

Don't be mad at yourself. I know that sounds hard. This is the first time, and it will probably be the last. Only $35 you should be thankful, but you won't get it back. Your gullibillity levels depends on the scam.

Did you pay in cahs or use a card.
Its happened to me ish before. I legitimatly bought something....then the company sold my credit card or something ...can't know for sure..... to another company. Then they randomally charged me for something.
Anyways, it was my bank card....i called my bank up...told them i see a charge that i had no idea what its for......they said they had no info on the company and all i have to do is file a complaint at the bank and i'll get the money refunded.
It was about the same...$30 ish.

Ya, I had to learn about scams the hard way. Now I am a little bit more cautious about who I deal with.

talk to the manager, or call a local news station and report them. Granted, its only $35, but its principle too. I called a news station when I got scammed, they did a story, and I got my $$$ back. ;)

You should have watched Dateline on Tues night. They have moved on from pedophiles to internet thiefs--its a whole series--tune in next week--Chris Hanson is one brave dude!

Girl, I've LEARNED MY LESSON!!! more than once! Basically, you won't get your money back. You live, you learn. Just don't do that anymore. I've learned to check the BBB and snopes.com before believing anything. If it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.

Sorry to hear that but glad to hear you lost very little money compared to what you could have just as easily lost!
Have a great day! =)
