The victum must first give them a valid credit card number to get the "free" access. Then the victim must figure out how to cancel the "free" service before they start charging the card. This scam is used be most of the online services.

The other nice thing about America On-Line is that they NEVER remove you from their mailing list. After taking a three month test drive as a beta user, I declined to enroll when they 'went public.' This was a good while back, but I still get the monthly "What's happening" lists, update notes, special offers, etc. At least nothing shows up on my VISA.... .-----------------------------------------------------------------------------. | UUCP: {crash tcnet}!orbit!pnet51!pj | RTFD = Read The Silly Doc! | | INET: pj@pnet51.orb.mn.org | | `-----------------------------------------------------------------------------'
