      On March 18 2024 there was 10000 dollars withdrawn from my bank account to pay for a online business to sell merchandise for ****** through adstar media llc.A few days before that I called and had the limit raised to 10000 to be took off of a debit card for this purchase .They said ok the money there and could be withdrawn until 5 that evening.I called adstar and told them this.2 days later the money was still in the account and I asked them why they said no one had tried to get the money off the card .I thought this was suspicious and told them I change my mind and didn't want to purchase the services from adstar.they said everything should be ok and I thought it was over.about two weeks later I checked the account and 10000 had been removed from the account and I ask why since I told them I didn't want to buy the service.After checking they said that I signed a electronic check approving the buy and sent me a copy of the document.I had never seen the document before and did not sign it.Aparently adstar took my information and ordered checks saying so could make direct deposits to the account but instead they ordered checks filled one out for 10000 forged electronic signature and cashed it on 21 of March for the purpose of getting around the 3 day money back guarantee.They got my money provided no service forged a electronic signature and refuse a refund

      Thank you for reaching out to us right away! We made contact with Mr ****** immediately, and were able to clear up his concerns and confusion.

      Of course, we did no such thing as ordering checks on his behalf, as this is not possible, nor did we forge any signatures.

      Thankfully, this was just a misunderstanding. 

      We were able to show Mr ****** his actual hand signed documentation vis ********, and we are pleased to have him as a client.

      His contract is for a minimum duration of 18 months, and we are at the very beginning. We are happy to put this mistake in communication behind us, and we are looking forward to providing Mr ****** with the highest level of customer service for years to come!

      Thank you again - Adstar Support Team
