I recently noticed charges on my credit card of $19.99 from Valuemax. At first I thought the charges were from my credit monitoring services, then I looked Valuemax up on the internet and found this site with the laundry list of complaints. Based on what the complaints say, I guess they got my information via the Intellius website where I purchased a couple...

Valuemax Unauthorized Billing

I did a people search through Intellus and didn't know that ValueMax signed me up for a membership that claims I would receive discounts off retail products. Please. I didn't realize that they were billing me from last August. I called my credit card company and had a three way conference with ValueMax and let them know I want my membership cancelled because I never authorized these people to bill me for anything. It seems that once you use Intellus, ValueMax automatically enrolls you as a member. ValueMax claims that they will refund the last charge made to my credit card within 2-3 business days. Hmm. We will see if this con artist will do that. More to come...

Unauthorized charges to my credit card for two months for $19.95/each month plus $15.00/month for overdraft fees because I was trying to close the account. They owe me a total of $69.90 and have been less than helpful in returning it. I never ordered any service nor authorized any charges from them. Look them up on the Better Business Bureau website - unsatisfactory is their reliability report outlook. The number of claims against them is unreal. They number of aliases, addresses, and phone numbers is almost as shocking. They rob people all of the time, it's well documented. Makes you wonder. I'm still shock which I guess is why I'm lacking the anger this post deserves.

Valuemax they took money out of my account without permission.

For some reason valuemax took $19.95 out of my back account last month. I called my bank and they told me who was responsible for taking the money out. I then called Valuemax who told me that i had an account with them, and i did not sign up for anything i dont know where they got my info from but they somehow were able to take my my money. The man assured me that i would get my money back and the was like 3 weeks ago and i still have not recieved my money. Someone needs to put a stop to these people who are illegally accessing peoples personal information.

Valuemax Fraud

I used Intelius for an information seach in the spring of 2008 and sinc March of 2008 Valuemax has been deducting $19.95 per month. In December they deducted $19.95 three times in three weeks. The total since March is $259.35. I did not authorize this deduction and I have no idea who they are and what they do. I just discovered this today as I was scrutinizing my VISA card and noticed the $19.95 deduction 3 times in a few weeks. The most recent deduction was on Dec 22 2008 (today).

This company started charging me a $19.95 fee for 3 months before I caught it. It started right after (within 2 days) I tried Intellius and they also started charging the same $19.95 fee for the same 3 months!
Maybe someone is sharing our information out in these companies?
These companies are crooks and I have sent my Bank Wells Fargo on them to prove it.
After a registerd letter to Intellius thay wee only willing to give @19.95 and ValuMax will not respond.
Stay aawy from these companiies!

These ridiculous people stole my money and I spoke to them and got the same "you'll have your money back in 2-3 business days" yet i still have no email confirming anything. I know I won't be getting my money back and I refuse to have the very little money I have STOLEN from me by people like this who don't deserve it. I would like to contact the BBB but of course these scammers don't have a legit website with an address or anything (www.valuemax123.com doesn't even work) I haven't been this angry in a long time and I am not letting them keep my money. Can somebody PLEASE let me know how they went about contacting the BBB about these people? I would really appreciate it.

After canceling my memberships with ValueMax and their sister company Shopping Essentials I left to live in Thailand for ten months. After returning to the states and going over my credit card statements I found these two companies had billed my account for over$375.00 I contacted both companies and they refunded one months charges. I contacted them again...
