I received and offer for a technical flashlight, for the cost of shipping. I had the opportunity to order and additional for $1.00.
I received the flashlights and then a $39.99 charge was taken out of my account, without any express permission from me. They get your charge card number for "shipping" and then suck money out of your account. I have no idea what for except for what others have claimed on this site. They have said it is for "membership" of some kind.
My Crisis Gear is a scam to get your bank info, then send you a magazine for 39.99 a month without telling you that they are going to charge you for anything more except shipping and handling on a flashlight.
Thank you for the "Heads-Up" regarding this site. I was just about to order a tactical red laser light for my pistol from that site and had gotten a gut feeling I should do a little "Due-Diligence" and research this site. The price for that tactical red laser light just looked too good to be true considering they go for hundreds of dollars, not $19.95!
Your loss isn't going to waste. This site is right below their site.
I responded to an email from My Crisis Gear to receive a "Tactical Flashlight" and a TRIAL membership to the National Self Reliance Association.
1. The flashlight is a piece of JUNK, not worth the money to ship it--and an advertising piece, usually given out at conferences to promote a business.
I paid $6.95 to ship an item I would not give away--a RIPOFF.
I looked at the National Self Reliance Association website, which was NOT interesting, and based on the JUNK I received--I personally would not be a member if they paid me!
I have asked them to retract the trial membership in the National Self Reliance Assoc. and to refund the $7.95 I paid!
I ordered some tactical laser light and when I checked my banking account there was the charge for $65.85 which was the cost of them, but then there was another charge for 9.95 for something that I have no idea for what! So I emailed them right after that and told them to cancel the order because of this and did not hear back! I looked today and there was ANOTHER CHARGE for 39.99!! And I have NO idea for what?? So I emailed them again this morning and said that I wanted to return the items and have not heard back. If I don't hear back, I'm going to call them tomorrow.
After receiving an overcharge on my credit card..I notified the company that my credit card company account was incorrectly billed for $39.99. I spoke with the Supervisor and he graciously authorized a "CREDIT" to my credit card in same amount. I also requested that NO further billing was to be charged to my account & also to REMOVE my name etc. from any further contact with said company...The Supervisor complied and to contact him should any further billing continued..! Time will tell IF this is complied with. As being a Police Officer, I know the procedure for further enforcement action. I have NO issue with the 'tactical flashlight'. Personally, the contact with My Crisis Gear Co. was interesting and fruitful G.R. Mundale.
I came in contact with My Crisis Gear while trying to be prepared for WSHTF. They were running an offer no one could refuse. Flash lights and you pay the shipping and handling. So I requested 3 one each for my children and one for myself.
Money was paid to them for shipping and handling and near two months I started to contact them. I have written them twice and also tried to phone them today. Long story short, you will not receive your product so don't buy from them.
responded to offer for knife with paid shipping. Received knife which is OK but nothing special. Credit card I used for shipping is one I normally reserve for medical bills and don't check often. Paid this scum for nearly a year before I caught their charges. Called and they said the account was cancelled and I will have to wait until next month to confirm. This is a criminal enterprise that Texas will not shut down. If they were honest they would just show up at your house and rob you. Avoid, do not sign up to anything, avoid.
IF YOU GAVE THEM ANY CARD INFORMATION CANCEL THE CARD AND GET A NEW ONE. THEY CAN GET AROUND IT. CHAZ IN CUSTOMER SERVICE IS A COMPLETE LOSER AND "HATES PEOPLE".
Beware that if you place an order you will automatically be enrolled with an annual membership fee of $39.99 after 30 days starting from the date of your order. This is NOT mentioned in the original order and is buried in a separate email that is sent thanking you for your purchase.
This will then show up on your credit card 30 days later and will NOT be refunded or credited to another purchase. Very deceptive business practice.
Customer support offered no help except to cancel my membership (that I did not know was established with the original order) and would NOT refund the additional $39.99 fee.
Others have reported similar problems with My Crisis Gear.
I ordered a laser pointer and was only supposed to pay $6.95 for shipping. It included a free trial subscription to a useless survival magazine that I did not want. The company then began to charge my credit card for $39.99 per month and refused refund my money. The customer service representative was very rude and told me to read the fine print. I would strongly suggest not dealing with this company as they have unethical business practices.
I was just going to ask them to replace the scope but cant get in touch with them. when I call by phone they rerout me and hangs up. I hate to get ripped off
I ordered a tctical laser sight for my gun. When I put the sight on my AR12 I went to follow their adjustemnet instructions. When I went to adjust it, there was no adjusment screw, just a small hole, the screw was missing. I contacted them 3 or 4 times for a replacement or refund and they failed to respond.
I ordered a Tactical Laser Sight and the mounting screw designed to secure it 'stripped out' of the screw due to the poor quality metal it is constructed with. I emailed the company using their own form and did not get a reply.
As before, I saw this neat flashlight which had a lot of great functional uses on it and I felt it would handy to have in my car as I work late and come home around midnight every night. I sent for it last November, 2016, probably thinking if it was as neat as it looked, I might even give it to my husband for a Christmas present. I have never received the merchandise and this company keeps removing $39.99 out of my checking account and have presently removed $319.92 in total. I have finally closed down this account so this will stop, but as I was not really paying attention to it--I have been very ill and it is hard for me to get online sometimes and I have had my attention on other things. I know that's no excuse but it is so wrong that these guys have been removing all of this money out of my account.
My Crisis Gear = Their way to get rich at your expense. Do NOT buy anything they sell, they are in business to get into your Visa card and charge you nearly $40 per month for stuff you can buy anywhere from legitimate companies such as Galls or Cabela's without any need for a so called "monthly membership" the State of Texas if it had any honest public servants, would shut them down.
It’s apparent some might have fallen victim to a scam.... I ordered mine and they were great. Ordered 3 the first time. Then ordered 2 the next time I was so happy with them. Realizing that second order should be here by now I’ve got nothing. Probably a sight posing as wherever I ordered the first 3 from. My advice be sure of your seller.
If you order from this company, they continue billing you monthly until you discover it. When you confront them on it they claim it is membership fee and tell you it’s your promblem to keep up with your bills. Research reviews on internet before dealing with this company!!
My husband ordered 1 thing and they have been charging our acct 39.99 a month for 4 months and never authorized and didn’t join anything!!! Trying to call them and they don’t answer phone!!
Ordered a flashlight from a Facebook ad and was signed up for a 39.99/month subscription to nothing. Used an account I only use for unusual purchases and don't often check. I have paid over 500 dollars for nothing.
This is a bait and drain company. Do not order anything from them. I have tried multiple times to contact them and I will have to close the credit card account to stop this. This is a criminal organization.
I purchased a laser sight from these CLOWNS, got the item, works fine BUT. They charge me $39.97 for some sort of monthly membership for what I don't know. I will call it FRUAD and report it to the BBB and contest this charge with my Credit Card Co. These people are the scum of what internet world. They love to rip off people and then laugh at them for being so stupid to trust them!!
No different here they make a good deal on a free knife then they say you are a member now and we are going to take $39.99 per month out of your credit card account per month and say you joined our club. So they did.
I have made five calls and keep getting some arrogant C/S Rep who wants to talk over me and tell me about their return policy. Om my second call they told me they didn't have a record of my first call, but it showed up on my ATT bill for almost 11 minutes, and I don't want on hold for 11 minutes. I printed off their REFUND POLICY and it says 60 day "NO QUESTIONS ASK" full refund, but when you talk to them it's not for their Scam Monthly Membership Fees. WOW!!!! Anyway, beware. I even asked for the what ever I was supposed to get for my monthly membership fee that I did pay for, and they said it was for discounts and some magazine. I never got anything. BUYER BEWARE!!
no legit company does business this way. they trick you into a monthly membership fee and you receive no benefit. don't remember authorizing a monthly charge. may have been hidden in fine print but a business with anything of value to offer doesn't have to do that
My story is the same as everyone elses. My husband ordered a tactical light and I noticed today that they have been charging our account $39.99 a month since February, a total of $160! They are currently closed so wish me luck on Monday! (Monday-Friday 8am - 5pm)
Ordered "wolf-pack" in April 2023. In August, charge for 49.97 that I did not notice. Then same charge ($49.97) in September. Called them, said I ordered a subscription in April with the wolf-pack. I said what is the subscription for? A newsletter. A 49.97$ newsletter? Wow, must be valuable. However, I never received a newsletter. Or anything else, other than the April transaction. Total scam. Do not buy anything from this company.
I ordered from this company twice before in 2018 and 2021 and there was never a subscription to anything with those transactions. They said I had to cancel said subscription within 14 days. This was never on anything in my order from April.
I ordered a red dot scope in March, 2021. Over and above the scope charges was a charge for $105. After this I was charged $39.97 per month for a newsletter I do not recall purchasing. I do not recall receiving, sendIng junk mail to trash.
They claim I checked a box for a newsletter at $39.97 a month. Come on. Who pays that for a newsletter? Well, it seems that they have done this same thing to others. Another credit card cancelled to stop the billing.
I did buy something from them over a month ago, never received the item. it was under 10 dollars. never got a a response. Now they have charged my credit card $43.27. I have asked the bank to cancel the charge.
About 3 month ago i contacted my crisis gear to let them know that they were taking money from my bank account without permit from me.Talk to this guy and told him that they need to stop their withdrawals.He said that he was doing my request and my refund will be done but as today 06/03 2020 they keep ripping me.Today i try to call them four times and no one answer my calls.This have to stop or i will notified it to the proper authority.
I ordered an item from this site, received they would charge after 30 days if not cancelled before that time frame. I have tried to locate a link to cancel the membership but there is no link. I have sent several emails to the support email on their site but no response. The phone is always answered by voicemail, no live contact with this company. Oli Fischer is a scam artist, I have not received the item I ordered at this time also. If I do not get resolution from Oli Fischer in the next 3-4 days I am going to file action with authorities for internet scam ripoffs. I would recommend any one scammed by this site to file a complaint with the FBI for internet scam.
Placed order for laser light in February 2020. Check bank account and money was taken every month for three months after paying for initial order. When called about the charges, was told the charge was for a "newsletter". Who in the world would pay $37.95 a month for a "newsletter"? And, it was suppose to have been sent each month to a email address. My Crisis Gear even said it was NSRA, but the withdrawals clearly showed My Crisis Gear. Nothing came through in any emails at all. BEWARE!!!!! They were very rude when questioned about the charges. Filed FRAUD with bank to get this stopped.

Straight up Ripoff

I have detected this monthly withdrawal, and I am not receiving anything for it after I purchased a high tech flashlight.
