I just got my credit card bill and they didn't cancel it after all. I had to dispute the charge. My wife called ancestry again and they told her that she renewed it instead of canceling...she clearly cancelled it the 1st time, so giving them the benefit of the doubt, they apparently intrepreted the word "cancel" to be "renew".
The credit card company told us not to pay the charge. |

aol.com, one of the MyFamily.com investors just got their hand slapped for something similar.

Some credit cards have a feature on their online sites where you can generate a "virtual" credit card number. It's a totally different card number but is tied to your real account. The programs vary some: the number might be a one-time only use, or only good for a short period of time such as one month, or for only a certain $ amount that you specify.
That way, if you give them that "virtual" card number, they can't pull this stunt later on because the card number won't work anymore.  Hope this helps somebody!! Barb |

There is only one way to get these blood suckers off your back. Cancel your credit card and file a fraud report with your credit card company.
