Hello
I wanted to buy the Crit'Air sticker and I received the sticker, but now I have a direct debit every month of €29.99 + €1.08 in bank charges because it is a foreign organization. This amount supposedly corresponds to a monthly subscription, could you help me with this? Thank you
If you also notice an auto-s.co charge of €29.99, you can read our advice below and/or leave a comment.
Tip: how to make a purchase online safely?
💡 Most banks now offer "dematerialized single-use bank cards": this may seem complicated, but it is actually a simple and safe way to avoid unpleasant surprises during your future purchases on the internet. Another point, adopt the reflex of checking the legal notices: you will most often find them at the bottom of websites. The legal notices specify in particular the location and address of the company responsible for the website on which you plan to make a purchase as well as a contact within the company. Finally, an effective trick is to enter the name of the site on Google to consult possible opinions of Internet users. 💡
too bad for my face I got had and I have my account online so we don't talk about it anymore thanks
Hello, I have been the victim of direct debits from auto-s.co for several months and now it's hpy*auto-s.com, no way of contacting these people, no phone number or email address, a horror.
Who has already had to deal with this type of scam hpy*auto-s.co if so how did you manage to put a stop to it because there is no email address or telephone number and my bank tells me that it can't do anything I think that they could at least find out about this scam
Hello, I still have a withdrawal of €29.99 which goes through my account. I closed the application Inchalah I would like to block this withdrawal thank you.
Ik zag ook date er 2x via zoomit werd betaald aan auto-s.co London. Ik heb onmiddellijk mijn masterkaart geblokkeerd en klacht ingediend bij mijn kaart.be om het geld terug terug you vorderen.
Ik heb op 25/6 and een vignet aangekocht voor Frankrijk crit'air dus let op als je online zo'n sticker aankoopt, niet doen!

Hello, I just realized that I was scammed too. Auto Portail tells me that I clicked on "take a subscription", accepted the conditions, etc. but I don't really remember when I clicked. And even less that I authorized an automatic withdrawal!!!! So I canceled the subscription (the height of it!!), contested it with my bank and blocked my card so I'm sure they won't charge me again. I'll learn a lesson for the future.
Hello. I have been the victim of the same scam with Auto s.co since June 2023. At first, I didn't pay more attention because I thought I had made purchases for the maintenance of my car but the last direct debit made me wonder and I was sure I had not bought anything for that. I searched on the internet and found that other people had been the victim of the same scam. So, I went to my bank and reported this scam, blocked my credit card. I have just received the full refund from my bank.
Do not hesitate to make a complaint because apparently the banks' scam services are aware of it.
I have also just been scammed by the HP Auto Sco Lonodo site for several months I have been paying a subscription of 29 I realized today I went to my bank and there they told me that they could not do anything except for me to block my card which I did thank you for telling me if you reimbursed the months that were taken from it
I just suffered the same fate. I deleted my profile/account (created a few days ago) on the auto-portal portal and I blocked my credit card. I was debited once the amount of 29.99 euros and then I started to worry.
I have just been scammed by the site hpy*auto-sco Lond. I asked for a certificate of non-pledge, I paid 0,99 cents which seems normal to me but when validating the payment there is a box that informs you that you pay 0,99 and 48 hours before you are subscribed and you pay 39,90 euros. My loss is 140 euros. I'm fed up with all these fraudulent sites 👍👍
