Description
VinHistoryUSA.com claims to have $1 VIN (auto-vehicle number) check reports like Carfax reports. While they do give you a report it is not as detailed as Carfax. However that is not the scam. The scam is after giving your payment method they continue to charge it random amounts after the initial $1 charge. For me it was $29.95 and 2 days later it was $4.95. Beats me where they get the $4.95 from because their customer service claims that the monthly subscription amount is $29.95. I don't expect them to follow through with a refund and subscription cancellation. I don't want to deal with them anymore so I reported their fraud to my bank and am getting a new debit card (which I used on this website). I see others online complaining about similar theft from this website/company.
