Girls Gone Wild makes customers pay for unordered videos They ripped me off! Sylmar CaliforniaFOX 6 investigative reporter John Mattes first broke the story how Girls Gone Wild was marketing videos for only $9.99 consumers found the company tacking on huge fees. Thousands of consumers called it a rip-off on ripoffreport. After our story aired an attorney sued calling it deceptive advertising. Video part 1 Video part 2
I ordered two Girls Gone Wild (GGW) videos through the mail, a special promotion offering two cassettes for 10$. I got my videos. They suck. Boring, amateurish, degrading, stupid. I'll never buy that crap again. Case closed.
Only, without my knowledge, GGW had put me on their monthly club list and started sending me videos I hadn't asked for, and charging me 25$ each!
I only found this scam out after getting a second cassette through the mail. Let me make this clear I did NOT sign up to any monthly club. I did not order any more videos.
Their customer services rep told me that their TV ads and their website include warnings that you're signing up for that monthly club, and that you have to opt out of them. This is a lie. I went back to their website; all the way through, they don't tell you ever that they're signing you up.
No wonder porn is such a great business these punks overcharge their clients shamefully. And I'm not the first one to be suckered just check the other complaints. DON'T BUY STUFF FROM GGW! THEY'RE A BUNCH OF THIEVES!

Pedro from New York. I was told the same thing over the phone from the operators out in Sylmar, CA. The question I have about the whole thing do they have the legal right to fo such a thing. If you want to just retape it up cross out your info, put in return to sender and mail it back. The commercial does say it but to what extent. I have previously been on this site.
