Yes, my son signed up for AOL a few years ago. He used a credit card that he had just received and had never been used before. Within 3 hours he got a call from the bank asking if he was trying to wire $500 or so with Western Union on that card number. He had to cancel the card and also cancelled AOL as well.
That is one reason I always throw away the free CDs that AOL sends me. They say it is free, but you have to give them a credit card number anyway, and no telling what will happen after you do that.
