On 3/25/2026 I was trying to get some information from Canon about how to operate a new camera that I had just recently purchased. After a short online interaction, I was shifted to [email protected] . This in turn evolved to MohmdAbdulla at [email protected] at 3:06 PM. One minute later, I received an Email from PNC Bank that indicated that my Visa account appeared to being hacked for $65.00 with a merchant name of "A 5 ASK AN EXPERTONLINE". This appeared to be associated with "askanexperts.com". Finally on 3/27/2026 I received a reply from [email protected] that said: "Ask an Experiment Online: I'm able to locate your account Upon reviewing your account it cannot be cancelled online you are using premium subscription plan for 24 months". After some useless exchanges, I received one at 10:49 AM that said "If you want to cancel this subscription you have to pay a cancellation fee of 148$". I replied at 11:01 am: "Apparently I will need to report this scam to legal authorities." With the advice of Joshua Schooley at the local PNC Bank, I closed my Visa credit card account. This is an extremely unpleasant event to manage. [BBB Scam Type: Online Purchase] [Business: There seem to be several: JustAnswer askanexperts.com and chatwaymail.com.] [Location: MI, USA - 48105]
