Being Charged for Things you Did Not Buy via Mqube (Cell Phone Scams?)
Serge The Concierge reports on his blog about AT&T, m-Qube Inc and VeriSign:
“When we get a bill that run a few pages long, we tend to check the main numbers and not the details unless there is a big change from month to month.
It happened to me with my Cell Phone bill until I noticed a suspicious charge last month for something we did not order. The new invoice that I just received included the same charge so I reviewed 10 months worth of undue charges. It is always the same amount $10. Multiply this by 10 and someone has been making around $100 off my back.
I called at&t (my wireless provider), and they credited me for 3 months of undue charges. I still had to call Mqube now part of Verisign to ask them to stop any future billing and find out the origin of the $10 charge. They did not know offhand but told me they would find out.
So a word of advice, when you get your cell phone bill, scan it for suspicious charges.
It could save you enough money for a good meal out.”

I was charged $9.99 for 5 separate purchases on the same day 9/15/2011 4 of them from MQube and one from Open Market. My phone is a AT&T go phone. Why would I pay for premium services on a phone I only use for urgent calls and travel to Mexico. This is not the first time I have had to waste valuable time to call requesting refunds but it is the first time I got charged $50 on the same day. MQube needs to be shut down and fined for these fraudulent business practices. I hate having to waste time calling and filing complaints such as this one. I have already filed a complaint directly with the FCC.

I have been charged by
MQUBE for ringtones I never requested and had to go to AT&T to try to get a refund and all I could get was a $25 dollar courtesy allowance. There has to be something that can stop these actions by this company. I have a family plan and it is occuring on all the lines.

How can AT&T allow this. The website listed on the bill to contact do not even exists!!!
AT&T did refund my money, they should purge the company from their system.
