Description
I saw an ad on Facebook for Patellar Support Knee Straps, I followed the link and purchased them for $14.99. I got a receipt and follow-up emails with shipping notifications. A few days after the initial purchase, I was charged an additional $49.99 and then $149.99. By the time I noticed this and started looking more closely at the receipts, the website no longer existed (FlexWrapCo.com is now a parked site on GoDaddy.com). Looking back, I can see some flags even on the initial receipt, like vague shipping information, an additional line item on the receipt "Lifetime Guarantee", and no actual contact information for Flexwrap other than an email that should have tipped me off. I am working with my bank to dispute the charges, and I never received the product in the mail.
