About Streamate, Erito-cams, and some other camsites conducting scams review: scam/scare tactics 4

First time posting here on this website, but I felt I needed to try and get more of a word out about this. Recently today I was sent an email from a camsite that I had frequently visited called Erito-cams (Which is basically just Streamates but masked and tacked onto the Erito JAV site). Here is what the email stated:

Outstanding Balance

We have been notified by our billing company that they have processed a dispute from your card for $1237.48.

We have logged your IP address, the chat logs, and all other information in regards to your use of Erito. This information will be submitted to the local law enforcement officials at the location of the IP address that we have verified with the Computer Crimes Department and if this proves to be you, you will be charged for felony credit card fraud and identity theft.

As a result of this fraud claim, this card has been blocked from being accepted at Erito and all other websites our billing provider handles. Your Erito account has also been closed and cannot be accessed.

We hope this was only a misunderstanding of the Erito terms of use, and we would prefer to avoid formalizing this process with your local law enforcement agency.

Again, your credit card is charged only when you access the pay areas of our site. The charges are a per minute charge and are clearly stated before you enter any pay areas.

On your Erito Account #53890007, you currently have $1237.48 in outstanding charges.

Make cashier's check or money order for $1237.48 in US funds payable to:
ICF Technology, Inc Ref#53890007

PERSONAL CHECKS OR CASH WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

Please mail your cashier's check or money order in US funds to settle your account and avoid a police investigation:

SM Payment Processing Center
Ref# 53890007
P.O. Box 2468
Seattle, WA 98111-2468

At first I was shocked and scared by this, not too sure on what to do I went onto the site amd contacted their Live support. I was greeted by "Fred" and I told him about the situation and gave him the account I had with the site. He basically agreed and confirmed that they sent out that email to me saying I had owed them funds because they "refunded" the funds to me (Later I checkee my bank statements and found no such thing). But at the time I was panicking so I went ahead and told him I would go send the funds ASAP. Went to the bank and got a cashiers check for the amount and proceeded to drop it off at the post office.

It wasn't until a but later that I decided to go and google the address stated in the email, where I got some results about people asking/stating about this being a scam. One of which was just posted a few months back on here. After reading what others had posted and their personal experience with this I learned that not only did I get jipped but I would have probably continued the cycle on their little scheme. After reading that I rushed back to the post office and luckily got the check back before it got sent. After that I went and blocked the card I had connected to the site.

What I learned out of all this is not only do "well-regarded" porn sites may try and trick/scare you into falling for these scams but they use those funds to sap even more potential customers into it. Honestly real sad that porn sites will do shady stuff like this :( Sticking with free stuff from now on.

Other than that I'm curious if anyone else had an experience with a scam like this recently or in the past and how you dealt with them.
