I just saw a charge for $46 on my card from INTERACTIVE MEDIA 800-667-8208 NV

I called and they said its Lavalife, an online/phone dating service. I said I didnt sign up for anything and they asked me for my credit card # and address. I was hesitant to give this out and asked what $46 could be, and they said 6 hours of phone time.

Is this some kind of scam or has someone just gotten ahold of my card # and I need to cancel it immediately?

Quick, go to your nearest drive through (preferably an Arbys) and whip your credit card at the cashier's neck.

Well I called the bank and I have to wait for the charge to complete which can take up to 10 days. Then I have to fill out a form, mail it in, and they "investigate".

I called Lavalife and told them they might as well just cancel it now to make it easy, or there's going to be a chargeback. They won't cancel it now which pisses me off. I asked them to tell me a little bit about my account, so maybe I can figure out who got my card number. They won't do that because of confidentiality. But it's my account! :p

sounds like a scam. is it a debit card or credit card?
