I was duped by this company who offered 5 magazines for $27.00 USD. I just checked my bank statement and I was charged $91.00! This was part of a "come on" on facebook for a game where you "earn" coins by playing the game and as a means to "earn" more coins, you are given a choice of "offers" promising a certain thing, in this particular case magazine subscriptions--five magazines for $27.00--where you enter your credit card info and upon payment from your bank, you are awarded the "coins." This is deceptive and dishonest. Had I thought it was going to cost me $91.00, I'd never have participated. I suspect I now much cancel my credit card to avoid additional charges to my account. I am furious with facebook and this total scam company. I feel the attorney general's office needs to investigate this company and plan to advise him of such.

Sorry I misunderstood the form and entered my OWN address and phone #. The company's phone number is 1-888-624-2877. ALSO...it is on facebook as "MagazineBurst.com" Don't get ripped off. I'm calling tomorrow morning (9-5 CST), and will contact my bank for a new card no. and am contacting facebook in addition to the attorney general's office. I hope the other person who requested a refund gets it!

What an idiot. Why would anyone give you 5 magazines for $27? That would be a poor business model since they would LOSE money.

Stupid.
