Visa et al have allowed this to go on and put the onus on the merchants. That's a load of shit in my opinion. Why don't they make it fucking harder to chargeback goods that were bought and used?

Dishonest consumers...know I have heard it all...a mainstream business would understand that even those people that only pay $2.95 or $1.95 or whatever, are part of the profit mix...and I strongly believe that if even a quarter of the time that the consumer knew for a minute that he was agreeing to a $29.95 membership, that the charge backs would diminish considerably.
Have you seriously even looked at the terms and conditions and slight of hand wording of most paysites today? They are all designed to ensure that the consumer "thinks" they are getting one thing when really they are "agreeing" to something else.
Oh, but now VISA is stepping in because a bunch of lazy scammers don't realize that money needs to be earned...not scammed.
