Scammed by parenting

Aparently if you buy anything at the Motherhood Store with your credit card they automatically charge you for a subscription to Parenting Magazine without your authorization. What the Hell? I've filed a fruad claim with my bank. Don't make the same mistake I did.

This sounds like a screw up on behalf of Motherhood, rather than a scam ran by a reputable magazine company. Perhaps they were doing a promaotion where they were supose to ask you if you wanted a supscription to parenting, and the clerk forgot to ask.

I agree with cay8099. They always ask when i buy stuff if i want the subsription.

Yep it's a scam, honest. Happened to my daughter just the other day and we are taking this to our State Attorney General. If anyone doubts this is a scam try Googling Motherhood Maternity+Parents Magazine to see all the others who have been scammed. If you have to run a business this way then something is definitely wrong don't you think.
