AOHell is still with us

Posted on July 5, 2009 by Billy Dennis

Hard as it is to believe, there are still people who use AOL. But then, there are people who send money to Nigerian pieces in hopes of a getting a portion of that fortune the guy is trying to smuggle of the country.

But you would think that after joining up with Time-Warner, that AOL is above trying to scam people. You would think wrong. Good lord. Automatically upgrading unused free accounts, sending them a bill to their unused email address, then reporting them to collection agencies, then refusing to cancel the accounts.

Business as usually for AOL.

    AOL is a rotten outfit. I hope they get nailed for consumer fraud.
