In the US these kinds of scam fail to be legal on the basis of contract law which is way more nuanced than "can't do this"...

I am not talking about common sense I am talking about things like informed consent and consideration.

German law doesn't really care if your consent to a contract was informed or not. If you technically consented, then you consented. This is also how we got the recent thread about .at domains renewing automatically and the registry suing you if you don't pay.
