I got a bill for the website??

Hey everyone! I hope you all are doing well.  I was just curious if anyone knew about getting billed for this website?? I recently got a bill in the mail that was for a medical support group from the internet.  I thought that this was  a FREE site!! Am I wrong?? Oh boy just what I need more stress about money!! :(

Please respond, it's been a rough few days and I really want to clear this up! Thanks all
Lots of Love- ALi

Yeah I think it is just a scam.  Here is what it says: Internet Medical Group
The Doctor is "Kelly".. Idk I see a number on here I am going to call it to see what the deal is!! Wierrrrrrddd I didn't think this was a site that charged, and like Steve said I would need to put my credit card information in and I have never done that.  Also I do not have my full name displayed or anything so it does not make sense.  I am calling now I will let ya know! Thanks all.  Hope everyone is doing great in their recovery :)

hmmmm....well its strange that a scammer would know that  she has been on a medical help website. But, yeah-this site is free--I have been on here a lil  over a year now and never charged a penny---and its a wonderfull site

Some of our Expert Forums do have a doctor's fee you have to pay in order to ask a question. But you have to pay in advance with your credit card via a SSL-encrypted Payment Page, and that fee would then show up on your regular credit card statement. You'd know you were being charged a fee before you would be able to post.

Additionally, in skimming your past posts I don't see any posts you've made in an Expert Forum.

Like Gnarly_1 says, it looks like someone is trying to scam you.
