Description
A link through Pinterest for a free IQ test, but to get the results you have to pay $1. I used Paypal thinking it would give me a layer of protection, and was careful not to agree to any more payment. Two sets of 70 cents went through to my credit card, odd, but not far off what I agreed to. I thought maybe they meant US dollars. They told me I have an IQ of 132, as smart as Einstein (which is not accurate, Einstein's IQ was closer to 160). Cheeky! 1 week later I was hit with a $45. charge I hadn't authorized, and on Paypal found that it was a subscription. I filed a dispute to Paypal, and they ruled in the favour of My IQ. Had to cancel my credit card and order a replacement.
