Ok friends, I have an update.
They emailed (and SMSed!) me back asking for more details. The questions were legit (regarding my previous citizenship etc.) But I used the opportunity to ask them to cancel my order. Within 10 minutes got a replied back that the order was canceled (no questions asked) and indeed the reservation on my credit card is gone. I can see similar stories here (i.e. when asked to cancel they cancel and give money back): https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.usimmigrationsupport.c... Just for me to sleep better tonight, I shall interpret this as a confirmation of the theory that this not a scam-scam, but just a business set up to trick idiots like me. And once they see that you realize - they just cancel in order to avoid confrontation. Cheaper and easier. |

The trick with a legal scam like this, is to bend over backwards if anyone complains - which they did.
An illegal one and they'd milk you in every way possible.
By the way - posting about it is a great way to save yourself if it were an illegal one; because the illegal ones want you to NOT communicate about it, and use the shame of making a mistake to encourage keeping it secret.
