One of their partner companies, called TopFlightFares.com, tried to scam me! I booked a flight through TopFlightFares.com (Booking #169xxx) after being directed there from CheapFlights.com. They had my credit card and then they booked it, but they also wanted to "call to confirm" (red flag!), and this is where the scam occurs. They say my flight no longer has any seats and they can put me on a different flight for an additional charge. When I said "no thanks, please cancel", they became belligerent and told me to read the fine print and that I would still be charged. I had a specific flight booked at a specific price, so if they cannot deliver as promised, then the deal is off - this is basic contract law! Luckily I had already placed a hold on my card. There is a Reddit thread detailing this scam and it happened to me exactly as this thread described. I trusted Cheapflights.com to make legitimate referrals to reputable sites that only book available flights at the actual price, and not scammers looking to change/cancel bookings and charge extra. Until they can verify that their partner sites are reputable companies, I will never be able to trust CheapFlights again.
