 The Pro package the scammers sell is not the same as the LimeWirePro version. The email you received should have a contact address or phone number. Some of the others who were scammed reported getting their money back in this long thread http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=28751  |

| This may or may not help get your $$$ BACK!!! (music members) depending on how similar the site is. The question is whether you paid your money to the official site or not.

| I bought a version of Limewire and the e-mail I received had the following information. Billing information Membership type:Lifetime Full & Unlimited Access with 25% OFF! for a total of 26.77 $ USD Pro Version Upgrade - Movie Codec Pack for a total of 14.95 $ USD NetSpyProtector Option - Protect yourself from malware for a total of 9.88 $ USD Firsty I guess I would like to ask... Is this right or was this from a scam site? Secondly... Does this mean that I should have Limewire Pro?...because the version I have is 4.9.37  |

| Sorry jayplays, but you got scammed  .Lw doesn't sell memberships, basic is free and Pro costs $18.88US and gets you 6 months free updates. Get it here: www.limewire.com Codecs are free. Here's a good thread with more info: CODECs list and alternate players for Movies A good and free antispyware here: Ad-Aware SE Personal and Spybot - Search & Destroy (FREE) I would guess that the version you got was the Basic version and not Pro. You can check it, in LW go to Help>About Limewire(see a picture here:About Limewire) If it doesn't say Pro then you didn't get the pro version. You should delete the version you have and get one from the official site. Also follow the links in the other posts about scams and getting your money back  .
