This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I ordered the ebay sales training tool kit. It was supposed to be free, just pay shipping and handling. They charged my account $59.95 and caused my account to be overdrawn. I called the number thats on the site. [protected]. They said the charge is for monthly website hosting. Nowhere in any of the information that I have says anything about being charged for this. Once they have your card number they just charge whatever the funk they want. I created such a fuss on the phone they said they reimbursed my account and cancel my order.

This scam started out with a free offer and silently charging people a fee. They should be shut down by ebay otherwise Ebay will get a bad rep.

If anyone see a charge on your bank or cc statement: MC-DR *AUCTION MONSTER [protected] CO that's the scam... beware!

I just got stun in Adelaide Australia with Auction Monster--their e-Bay booklet refused to download properly--then they started to help themselves to my Credit Card-=-the bummer is waiting for a new card--& notifying people that my Credit Card exists no longer--a*****les!

I never heard of or order a thing from them. Yet they and several other purchases have been charged to my account. Someone out there has to be selling or stealing cc info to these scam artists... I've canceled my cc and reported the fraudulent charges... it reallying bugging me though how these people got my info .. and how they keep getting away with it. From what i can gather on other discussions on this board it seems to be a very common occurrence. And it most definitely needs to be stopped. I believe I have been very careful with who i dealt with and gave my cc info too but I guess I will definitely have to look a lot harder at what internet companies i do business with in the future. Someone out there is not all they claim to be.

Thank You for posting these complaints, I was about to submit my information and thought I'd do an online search first... I sure am glad I did... I can't have bounced check fees at $35.00 a pop from them taking $60.00 from me! Again thanks!

Yes it happened to me same couple months ago. As they say 1.87 is fee. I request to ebayer or money making sites or doing fraud. Once inter cc they charge in minutes and got surprise we got cc statements.

Auction Monster auction is big fraud scamer.
