Lawyer Altered Docs in Best Buy Case
,----[ Quote ]
| The lawsuit, filed in 2003, accuses Best Buy of signing up at least
| 100,000 customers for trial subscriptions to Microsoft Corp.'s MSN
| Internet service from 1999 to 2003, in many cases without their
| knowledge. Once the trial period ended, the customers began
| incurring credit card charges they had not approved.
|
| Microsoft, which paid Best Buy for each customer it signed up, is
| accused of allowing Best Buy's practice to continue even after
| receiving complaints.
