They all lead to MySellersGuide.com. These charges started appearing after the FTC shut down Google Treasure Chest, Google Money Tree and et. al. in June 2009. File a complaint at FTC.gov or call (877) FTC-HELP if you have any of these charges.

Read up on how Google Adsense works before you buy any products and, once you are more informed, be selective about what you buy. The more money they claim you can make, the more I steer clear of them. Not all of the Google products are scams but few, if any, will make a newcomer a pocketful of cash quickly.

However, I don't think 10 times out of 10 it will be a scam. Some ridiculous marketers seem to think using the word "scam" in their marketing tactics is a good thing.

Good thing I always google ads to see if there is a scam with it, and sure enough...BAM...it's a scam. Sure saves me time, worry, and money!! Always do a search on anything your are about to pay for to make sure it is not a scam!! Ten times out of ten it's a scam!!

There are hundreds and hundreds of others who have also fallen for this one, along with many more replicated versions. Best advice I can give you is to call your credit company first thing tomorrow and ask them how they feel you should best handle it. I am sure they may even have some records building up on this company. Be persistant and insist something be done to avoid any charges what so ever. Good Luck! @alie Don’t feel foolish.
