Came across online add showing **** **** and ****** ****** representing product call Slash Watts claiming to save up to 90%on your electric bill, you supposedly plug this in according to the footages size of your home and its suppose to block any plugged in items not being used to save money on your electric bill, I ordered one unit at 49.00 plus taxes and shipping, total 64.61 also clicked on an offered discount that was never applied and 64.61 was taken from my bank debt card.I checked out the amount withdrawn and its listed on my account as a BUG ZAPPER, I right away click on cancel my order and it wouldn't work, did this within fifteen minutes of ordering could not cancel it, this was the 3rd red flag of a scam so I went to my bank to investigate this and hopefully stop them from getting my money
