CVMaker scam
I used CVMaker to create a CV for my brother. I paid €1.99 as what I understood to be a one-time fee. No subscription terms were clearly presented at the point of payment.
What followed was a mess. My brother started receiving invoices for €19.99/month — despite never having visited the site, never having registered, and never having agreed to anything. How did they get his email? They extracted it from the CV document I uploaded. They then automatically created an account in his name, complete with a system-generated password, and started billing him.
When we contacted support, they told us they "don't create accounts automatically." We have their own automated welcome email with his login credentials sitting in our inbox. So that was a lie.
They cancelled the subscription after we pushed back, but continued demanding payment for two unpaid months — and refused to delete his data unless we paid first. That's not how GDPR works. Avoid them!
