Recently I was lloking for an opportunity to earn money by working through the internet and came across this company.
They promised to mail a kit with information regarding thier services for 2.97. I thought the risk was minimal so I registered for the kit. My credit card was duly charged for the 2.97, but a couple of days later I noticed another charge for 139.00 from the same cumpany.
There was no company name, only an 800 number--I phoned the 800 number and explained that I had not authorized any such payment and had only requested the introductory kit.
I was told that there was no record of any such charge made to me. I insisted that my credit card was indeed charged for this amount and that the phone number i had dialed was the phone number given by the credit card company as the initiator of the charge.
The agent insisted that they had no record of such a charge and that i must be mistaken.
I then looked up the company on Google and found that many have reported this company as a scam and had been cheated in the same way as I have.
Do not have any dealings with with this company, You will only lose time and money

Although I am not the OP, nor a victim..I found this on another complaints website that links DCA with excelpro. Click the link below to find more info from similar victims..and expect the additional charges to show up on your account soon no doubt..

I was charged the 2.97 plus 1.00 but was for excelpro. Is this the company name they used on your charges also? I tried the phone number and all i get is my call cannot be completed as dialed.
