If and when this happens, call the company placing the charge immediately & dispute the charge. Chances are they will reverse it without much trouble. Then call your local provider and tell them you are reducing your bill by that amount, the company that generated the charge is crediting your account, that you want your account blocked and you are contacting the FCC to issue a complaint.I did all of the above, got the companyies money back & no more strange charges.
