I had received a call that there was a problem wth possible identity fraud and that I should call to get this resolved. | When I called I reached a company with a different name, but they assured me that they were one in the same. The gentleman I spoke to had all my right information which I verified. | He then started going though some things that I was eligible for and not it would cost me nothing. He started to explain eveerything that I would get then mentioned a fee. At this point I told him to cancel everything and do not charge or send me anything. | I was going over some statements and noticed charges to companies that I have never spoken to. I call to one of the companies and am told that I signed up through a third party company and that they verified everyhting via the third parties recording. Obviously they are able to control what is recorded and what isn’t. | I asked to speak to a manager and what do you know, they have no manager that I can speak to. She says there are only four of them in a small room. I would like to put a hurting on these eople.

Go Shop and Save is just a ripoff, scam company. First, my Humana pharmacy called and left their phone number for me to call. Humana exchange is 866. I accidentally called 888 interchange with the exact same number as the Humana Pharmacy. When the answered (rep sounded that he was from India) and I asked if it was Humana Pharmacy, and he said “yes.” I said i was returning a call about a prescription. He said we would get to the prescription in a minute, but that i had been chosen to receive a $100 gift card to spend on anything and i would receive the credit card in the mail and could start using it immediately. The cost to produce and mail the card was $4.95. I inquired about that, and of course the rep had a valid-sounding reason for the cost. I specifically said i did not want to be joining a monthly service company or program to receive the $100gift card (remember, i still believe i called Humna Pharmacy and the rep mispresented that indeed it was Humana). There was a recorded message i had to listen to and agree for the $4.95, but when the recording started to talk about receiving a $500 credit card if i immediately authorized a charge of $2.95. I said NO! The rep came back on the phone, and i reiterated that i was not going to accept $500 to join a monthly savings program with an initial payment of $2.95. The rep hung up on me. He then called me back and said “i did not hang up on you because I would not be calling you back if i did!” I said i did not want to join any monthly program for rebates, sles or whatever. I said i only wanted to oay the $4.95 to receive the $100 credit card and did not want to be hoining a monthly feed program of any kind. The rep told me the $100 would come to me in the form of a credit card that could be used immediately (a lie) . GSAS is now trying to take $24.95 from my debit account for the fee for the GoShopAndSave Program. The rep i spoke to today said they would cancel my subscription, remail the vouchers but the would not refund the $24.95 becauae i gave them permission to debit that for the first month of the program. I did not, and i will get my bank to dispute the charge and have it reversed.

I called Samsung Accessory Sales Department at 1-800-726-8721 and somehow the lying thieves at "GOSHOPAND SAVE" connected me to their phone tree and sales pitch. Since I had dialed Samsung I thought I was dealing with a legitimate company, though pushy, and that they were offering a gift card through some promotional deal in affiliation with retailers. When they refused to give me the phone number to cancel the goshopandsave subscription contract, saying it would come in the mail, I canceled my credit card immediately. The man calling himself Nathan Benson, with a heavy accent, told me he was going to report me to the BBB, FBI and attorney general. I told them that they could not charge my card because I didn’t complete the verification process and to stop calling. He called back dozens of times within minutes and was horribly obnoxious. I am just glad I didn’t give them my real birthday and refused to give any social security number, and canceled the card before they could steal from me.

I got a call to my cell phone from a local number. I answered it. It was someone saying that if I were to take a short survey I could win a gift card. So I took the survey and then this foriegn man got on the line and said that I will receive a $100.00 gift card in the mail with in a few days, and all I would have to do is pay a $4.95 processing fee. I asked the name of the company, he told me “Go Shop and Save” I asked their address, he told me Phoenix, AZ. | I asked for the complete address because if I am going to give out my bank account information, I’d like to know whom I’m giving it to. He said he can not give out that information and I would get all that in a few days when I received my card. I told him NO. I asked, so how are you calling me from a local 318 number if you are located in AZ, he did not have an answer. I said look! I am not giving any of my information if you can give me yours or and address to where your located so this call is over and we are through. As I was hanging up he was loudly saying something, but I just continued to hang up. Then I googled the name of the company and got the review page, full of negative reports. I am glad I went with my gut instinct.
