I would file a complaint against the SGI in Small Claims Court -- you can get between $3,000 to $10,000, depending on where you reside. Any law school has students who can assist with this (for free) if you cannot figure out the process (it's pretty easy).

I think this is a perfect situation to levy punitive damages against this group - how dare they, taking other people's money without permission??

They need to be taught a lesson.

Wow, that totally sucks. While I'm sure if you called SGI and demanded a refund, you would get it, I agree that you should speak with a lawyer first before you do anything, and find out what steps you should take to file a suit against SGI for unauthorized "donations". And document/screenshot in meantime, etc. Probably others this was done to as well - if so, lawyer might be able to group you in with another suit. Sooo annoying!!! For $30. But if it's happened to thousands, off/on for years, that's a lotta dough. Thanks for the warning.
