Response to naysayers:
Some of you are unbelievable. All the post does is encourage you to be careful with your personal information, to think hard about the type of schemes you are getting yourself into and to excersize caution and discretion with credit/financial decisions. So the only people whose parnassah is getting screwed by this are those that are relying on duping others to some extent.

New scam story, my aunt did not listen to me and my father and went to these people. Now she somehow has a lien on her because they didn't refund the tickets in time, and she has no idea how she is going to pay for the thousands of dollars in charges that she is now responsible for.

WE MUST PUT A STOP TO THIS NOW!!!
Aren't they doing refundable tickets? Just cancel the ticket?

The story isnt 100% clear, because the company is not sharing exactly what happened. But what appears to have happened was that they didn't cancel the ticket in time, and are now fighting the bill, in the meantime my aunt got a 7k bill...

I don't promote these guys and I actually don't like what they're doing but I bet your aunt will not end up having to pay for that bill. Screw ups happen but I think they would be smart enough to take responsibility if they can't get a refund.

Actually this is the 2nd time this incident happened to her (people just don't learn their lesson) but the first time she successfully disputed the charge claiming that she didn't make the charge, and that is what she is banking on again.

good luck
I have a friend who used to work for them but left because he didn't like working in a crooked business if i get a chance maybe i can get some more info about these things from him
I'm sure it's not the first time such a thing happened

The downside of a dispute is that you are taking responsibility for the card. Why shouldn't she just claim identity theft?

They probably recorded every phone call and every email where you gave authorization.

amex has the recordings of the cc farms calling on your behalf, you can say you didn't give authorisation for them to call for you

Not very hard to do. Especially if they're gonna be accused of identity theft.
