Scam Description
It was an online ad on Instagram. I completed a form with my name and address in order to receive a set of Hexclad pans, I just had to pay the 9.95 shipping costs. Then I see a charge on my account for 180 and I called the number and the woman said I signed up for a monthly raffle subscription and that I didn’t cancel during the trial period – which by the way was exactly 10 days ago. I’m being charged 180 by a company named Sportsman Choice located at 54 Carol Leigh Dr North Carolina. I am dealing with my bank now to dispute the charge and ensure there are no future charges. The woman who answered my initial call to the number on the 180 charge was also the same person who answered the number on the 9.95 charge. I told her I was reporting this scam to the BBB.
I do not have an email address from them as I received zero correspondence. The second phone number of the company is 855-206-9200
