I know some catalogue stores do this. Even if you pay cash, they will still open an account for you whether you like it or not.
Scary!

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

My Father also fell into this trap a couple of months ago with 'Premierman' - he tried to buy a pair of shoes online with them and a few clicks later had an account with £200 worth of credit - he didn't want the account nor the credit! There should be legislation against this happening!
I think with the amount of online shopping done now, a signature doesn't really matter!
As Pelder says, a few clicks of the mouse and you have an account.
It should be stopped though.
