Looks like another example of OF fraud so in addition to seeking return of the subscription fee I've cancelled all my subscriptions.
Happened to me a few months ago. Some obscure photographer. It was only $7.50,but that`s not the point. I changed my password straight away. If you haven`t done it already,make sure you go to the following page,and uncheck the auto renewal.

Yeah already done thanks. Just had the email from them asking for further details which I have provided. Now if I call my mate at one of the leading credit card companies and have a chat I wonder if he will ask his fraud team how many problems they are seeing and put them on a watch list?

Happened to me too. I stopped my auto renewal which sucks. However, don't want my card being misused.

Having seen the number of reports of fraud on this thread alone there's no way I'd give this outfit my card details!

That’s why I stopped, I had no problems but as soon as I found out on here and other places the issues I stopped. The sole problem is how they keep your details and it requires no extra details to be put in for every purchase. If they didn’t keep the security code on file and you had to put it in for every purchase this fraud wouldn’t happen.

It's not illegal to store a security code, but it's a breach of PCI (payment card industry) Security Standards.

Interesting. I'm not saying it was, just if they didn't this wouldn't happen. I think we'd all put up with the little extra inconvenience of having to put in the 3 digit security code for every purchase.

Do be aware that these emails could be a form of phishing.
Not from OF at all but some fraudsters pretending to be OF and just after your account details.
And no collection company worth its salt should allow you to store that 3 digit pin within the account other than for standard automatic renewals
