IBM Company Digital River advertised on…

IBM Company Digital River advertised on Facebook 14 DAY FREE TRIAL and stole £64.99 immediately from my bank account. I warm everybody against ''FREE TRIALS'' It is a corporate lie and I will sue them for the damage caused by their corporate greed and arrogance. I have to wait till 11th March for Paypal to possible give me my money back. If not I will go to Guardian media and to My MP and Sue IBM for £10000000
