Microsoft, Best Buy accused of Net scam

Samuel Kim filed a proposed class-action lawsuit against Best Buy and 
Microsoft Corp. on May 6, 2003 in Los Angeles Superior Court claiming that 
the two companies colluded to illegally charge customers for online 
services without their knowledge or consent. Mr. Kim alleges that, in 
February 2003, while making a purchase at a Best Buy store in Los Angeles 
with his debit card, he was unwittingly signed up, and subsequently 
charged, for Microsoft's MSN service. The lawsuit is aimed at ending the 
alleged scam and getting refunds for affected customers. Neither Microsoft 
or Best Buy representatives commented on the charges.
