If you’re one of the few who haven’t by now been subjected to Jamster’s high-pitched ringtone lures, consider yourself lucky you aren’t one of the many who apparently got duped into their “free” ringtones that are offered up for a tidy two bones a pop. Oh, and there’re also the complaints of noncancellation of “service” and massively reoccurring charges. The companies named in the suit besides Jamster? Oh just a few small ones like VeriSign, T-Mo, AT&T Wireless, and Cingular. Looks like the craziest ringtone in the galaxy’s in for a world of hurtin’.

| Jamster advertises on TV and other media that mobile customers can get a free ringtone if they send a text message to the number displayed on the ad. In fact, those who sent the text message got multiple messages back notifying them that content was available for download, according to the complaint. The customers had to pay for all those messages. Consumers who have contacted the company have reported monthly charges totalling as much as $75 for content they didn't want or even download, said Charles Russell, one of the attorneys representing Ford. |
