The mrs paid to join a ghost site. (ghoststudy.com) they have now taken money from my pay pal account without my consent! through pay pal.

I have mailed them but not had a reply, not that im expecting one.

I have also opened a dispute with pay pal. But dont expect that shower to do much either.

Is there any thing else I can do? Its only $11, but its not the point.

By allowing her to use your account you have consented to paying and if there is an automatic renewal scheme in operation (which you should have disabled) then some on-line companies give you 30 days to claim a full refund if you don't want to continue subscribing. It is common practice now to have the cart before the horse as they are hoping you cannot be arsed to contact them within the 30 days and then you are stuck with them for another year. Is it worth the hassle for £6.50? or is money that tight...if so give it a try...

Thanks topper. The online family search organisations like Ancestry.co.uk do what you described.

There are fraudulent emails that claim to be paypal and always try to get information from the genuine paypal users about their details.They usually greet you with hello and then your first name.
PayPal itself are aware of these fraudulent emails and recommend you send them on to them at spoof*paypal.com.
I have always done this (have received these emails on a regular basis), PayPal always confirm by return that these are not the real McCoy.

Thanks.... the other thing to remember that any reputable banking organisations will never ask for your details by email.
