"I consider myself a pretty astute individual" - realy?????
"these people have rang me on several occasions. they behave in an official way. they claim to be love film. they went through the whole sales pitch, explains features, packages, prices etc. they were very friendly, and love film being something i was interested in, i, partly in interest, and partly drawn in by charm, went along with it. i ended up giving my card details - something i know is stupid - and was told my account was set up. i was given a name and password and told i could sign in with these, and that i would have a confirmation email with terms and conditions and other relevant information; i never received this email and the login details given do not work. at this point i assumed it was probably a scam and did a bit of research. apparently people claiming to represent love film have been doing street surveys in london, with virtually the same pitch as what i achieved. I have as a result of this removed all money from my bank account and plan to cancel the direct debit, which, though i am told it is ?7.99, they could theoretically drain me dry. Organisations like this are disgusting and grossly unethic and need to be clamped down on hard; all the financial and moral implications are disgraceful, and it is absurd that these people can get away with it. I consider myself a pretty astute individual, and if I can be conned as easily as i can, what does that say for the vulnerable such as the mentally enfeebly and the elderly who may always look toward good nature and want to trust people? it has to stop."
