my wife & kids were on facebook & wanted the free ringtones, they didn't know it, but when they entered their cell #'s they activated a "premium" account billed directly to our cell phone, @9.95 a piece. took some research, but you can block this "premium" bs thru your carrier

Rule of thumb - Never enter your cell phone number ANYWHERE. Learned that the hard way too.

look up phonezoo, you can make your own ringtones, and people make their own as well. free, except for whatever data charges apply.

If you do anything of the sort, you need to make sure and cancel it right after you receive whatever it is. Otherwise they charge you a lot. I went thru this with my ex. I wanted to smack her in the face.
