    Now this gets me mad!!!
    I was at a site, nice product.
    The price shown was $7.00.
    So I clicked order, went to clickbank.
    Used the paypal option to purchase at $7.00.
    Next page, after I inputted my paypal password, showed the product costing $67.00!
    I never hit any link to say pay.
    And damn clickbank still hit my paypal account for the $67.00!

    So be aware...do not use clickbank with the paypal option!

    Now to fight with the seller, and clickbank.

    Okay, my rant is over...continue on with your lives.

    Use refund option. Keep the product. Report seller for false claims and attempt to defraud.

    Was a mistake by the seller, who did not know the order graphic was live to clickbank.
    Seems he copied and pasted the information, but was selling it for $7.00 with his own paypal button at the bottom of the page.
    Anyways, got the money back into paypal.
    All is well.
    But despite the nice email from clickbank, it is still set up at clickbank that once you use the pay via paypal button, you will pay!
    Without having to click any more links to verify the payment.

    Whoa this is something to watch out for. But I am extremely happy seeing the response of clickbank to that one, still though they must implement necessary changes to prevent anything like that happening again.
