A comment on Why can a scam company raise $40 Million Series C + $76 Million Series B?. Parent comment
- When you buy shoes, you pay for shoes and not a monthly subscription. That's what people expect when they see 'Checkout'.
- Even after looking at the screen after reading this post, nowhere is it entirely obvious that I'm about to sign away $40 a month.
- reg $69, VIP $39. Looks just like a regular discount.
- I went through the checkout process, until the last payment screen. I don't notice anything saying that this is a recurring charge.
OP was being nice. This is dishonest and borderline fraud.
Edit: FRAUD.
