Yep, it's a scam!
As everyone else has explained, this is a scam. They let you think you are paying for one-time use and then charge you an exorbitant amount for ever without ever notifying you. Turns out I've been paying for at least 9 months and am now disputing via my bank. That's at hundreds of dollars/euros/pounds (pounds in my case).
