Description
This appeared to be a cheap airfare website. As we were making reservations we kept having to confirm, confirm, confirm in order to see whether we could choose seats or see the cancellation policy. We had to give the credit card number to get that information. Then we received a call from a guy named "Chris" with a heavy Indian accent telling us we have to email them that we confirm the itinerary to get the seats and also charge our card. Chris also pressured me about buying luggage fees up front. I told him to cancel everything and he said he needed to put me on hold and talk to his billing department. I sat on silent hold for 22 minutes and then he hung up on me. Luckily I logged in and froze my credit card while on hold because ten minutes later my bank called about a fraudulent charge on my card for $1300.
