Description

I was on Raw Story media and checking my account to make sure I still had a subscription. While I was checking, a pop up appeared from Web Cloud Space asking me to enter my email address for a complimentary account, and then asked for a credit card to validate my account. I thought that I had to do that in order to have an account with Raw Story. My credit card company sent me a text asking if I approved the Web Cloud Space for doing that, and I clicked 'YES'.....but afterwards I thought maybe I shouldn't have replied YES, but instead replied NO. Then I went to my credit card website and saw that my available credit was zero. Evidently when I answered the yes, and then the no, my credit card company put a freeze on my card, which then showed a zero amount. They have cancelled that particular card and issued a new one to me.
