The main source of those must be plane tickets. When paying, I feel like there’s always a price increase that stops your order… a massive scam

[Misleading Prices] Tandata.io Advertises their prices as 1.53/m, But only if you pay upfront for 3 years. (infosec.pub)

This is sneaky, but everyone seems to be doing it these days.

They in big letters advertise €1.53 per month, but on checkout you discover they don't offer any monthly payment plans, you can only pay annually, and paying "only" one year upfront the price is 36% higher. For the price you thought you'd be getting you need to pay 3 years upfront.
