I remember a few years back a company set up quite a neat scam (although I am not condoning scamming in any way).

They set up a porn website, with paid for membership. They then overcharged each customer's credit card using a name that was really obviously porn (I think their name actually inluded the word "porn").

Apparently very few people queried it with their banks/credit card companies (presumably either because it was embarassing to do so, or they'd risk being found out by their other half).
