The appropriate party to inform would be the FBI ... The word fraud comes to mind, and millions of 50 centses puts 
company officers in prison for a long long long time.

I, on the other hand, need someone from Yahoo! to contact me, because I
decided to test their "email wishlist" feature. Repeated attempts got me
nothing but a message saying that my credit card information was
incorrect. But when I checked my bill this morning, I have three fifty
cent charges against my account (one for each time I revalidated my
email address while attempting to use their form). There's no contact
page on http://wishlist.yahoo.com, despite the fact that it's an
ecommerce page that takes credit cards, and there's no apparent way to
contact a human from the main yahoo page. I can always ask my credit

there's a problem. Never mind taking credit card numbers and providing
no customer support.
