Last week, I was trying to look up a manual for one of the kitchen appliances at work, found a site I’d used before. The download link was sandwiched between ads and whenever I clicked on something to try to download it I kept getting Apple payment popping up. Eventually, as the amount was £0.00 and I was getting frustrated, I just clicked to “pay”. I felt uneasy about it, so checked on my wallet, emails, etc and could see nothing to indicate that a subscription had been set up. I had a notification from my bank yesterday that a transaction for £34.90 had been attempted but thankfully my bank blocked the payment. Still have the issue of having to cancel my card and wait for a new one to arrive, and then try to find all the (legit) payments that are set up on that card to update the details. Looking at the tasty troves website I came across a “link” to cancel a subscription and found it’s not clickable, they’ve just made it look like a link. I’m annoyed that I got scammed, but thankful that I didn’t lose any money, will trust my instincts in future.
