GRANTSEARCH.COM-Anyone else ripped off?

I'm not sure where this should go,but has anyone else been ripped of by Grantsearch? Apparently they run a wide selection of scam sites,if you find unfamiliar and unauthorized withdrawals from your bank account by www.center4grants,NWKAG.COM,or BUSINESSFUND,you've been hit by them.Some people have reported that they sent for a free CD or information,then found that they were actually signing up for these charges.But in my case,I never made any kind of contact with any of these sites,never give anyone my account information,this is a clear case of someone stealing account information and outright theft.I'm still investigating how to recover my money,so if anyone has gone through this and has advice on how to proceed,I'd welcome it.

An update to my previous post.After researching this,I was amazed at how many people have been ripped off by this group.They have many "shell" companies,not even sure how many,and a variety of methods to scam people.I immediately froze my account,changed it's number,and reported each withdrawal to my bank,as well as reporting their activity to the BBB and filing charges with the FCC.Only then did I contact the customer service representative for the groups main company,demanding full restoration of my funds.Given the actions I had taken,and probably knowing they had crossed the line between scam and outright theft,they have refunded my money.I suggest that people check their bank statements carefully,they don't hit you for large amounts,but rather small ones from multiple companies that's easy to overlook,but really add up over time.
