Complaint Review: Momentum Direct

On 10/25/2007, I responded to an ad , in an on-line survey, for a free sample from Momentum Direct, 1010 S. Magnolia Blvd, Magnolia, TX 77375. They have also been known to use the following addresses as well, 17350 Tomball Parkway Suite 330 77064 - PO Box 665 Magnolia, TX 77353 - 6922 Prarie Village Drive Katy, TX 77449.

They required me to just pay the shipping charges. The only payment option that they would accept was a bank account debit, which required that I give them my bank account number. I did this and they charged my bank account in the amount of $2.97 for shipping. I received the free sample but after reading the directions I chose to not use the product.

A few weeks later they charged my bank account for the amounts of $49.95 and $58.93, charges that I did not authorize. I don't even know what the products or services that the charges are supposedly intended to cover. I did not receive any additional products or services and did not order any. These charges are fraudulent.

There are numerous accounts, by other people, for similar unauthorized charges. These accounts are located on the web site
