Complaint Review: Someone likes you

I first received an E-mail from them about a year ago, saying "Someone has a crush on you. Click Here to find out who it is". Obviously, I was very curious so I visited the site. To my dismay, it turned out that I had to enter in about five E-mail addresses of individuals whom I had a crush on just to see if one of them was the person who had a crush on me. In addition, I could receive a hint about my secret admirer if I entered a certain number of E-mails.

At the time, I dismissed this as childish SPAM and continued to ignore further E-mails from this company for over half a year. Earlier this year, I started getting a series of E-mails from them that said "We'll just tell you who likes you. Click here to find out". Once again, I was disappointed, as it appeared that I then had to sign up with various companies or internet services and then fill out the mystery word in the blank to proceed. Most of them were companies in which the average person would never order anything from.

However, I was just so curious about who my secret admirer was that I figured that a few $1.00 trial fees were worth it to find out. After going through about seven different companies in the same way, I finally received a message that said I will receive a post card in the mail that contained the information about my secret admirer.

After a week passed by, I received another E-mail from Someone likes you that said there were errors during the process and that I had to finish the last step, which was opening an account with one of the companies.

Again, I received another E-mail saying "We'll just tell you who likes you...". I then contacted them, saying that I already fulfilled all the steps and I asked them why they still haven't told me who my secret admirer was. I got nothing back from them but I continued to get that same message every week. I pretty much ignored those and any following E-mails from them.

Then disaster struck. I got my credit card bill a couple months later and I saw several charges on there that I didn't authorize. I typed in the name of some of these companies into a search engine and they all led me to this site, where many people were telling of all their horror stories about these companies.

It turns out that all the companies Someone likes you is teaming up with are either companies like one of the various MWI affiliates, who make unauthorized charges against your credit card or companies in which the FREE trial becomes an actual service after the trial period is over. If it weren't for wanting to know who my secret admirer was, I would never have had anything to do with any of those companies.

I then entered Someone likes you into a search engine and saw various horror stories. One person even said that even if you do guess correctly through entering E-mail addresses, they'll still make you sign up for various services before they tell you who it is. I sent some further E-mails to Someone likes you but got no responses.

Although, I managed to get most of my money back, I ended up wasting almost an entire Saturday contacting all these companies to cancel. This cannot continue. I urge everyone who reads my story to please spread the word and prevent Someone likes you from
toying with people's emotions and helping other companies rip them off just so Someone likes you can make some dishonest cash.
