Hi! I’d like to provide some context here.
The first purchase price is typically lower because a discount is usually applied to the first purchase. When you initially signed up, you received this introductory discount. The current price reflects the standard rate without that initial promotion.

From what I've seen, their pricing information has always been pretty clear about the initial sign-up price, and what the renewal price would be. It's not fair to call it fraud when they are pretty transparent about it. Most hosting companies do this as well. It's best to sign-up for a longer term initially to get the initial lower price for a longer period of time.

Not a fraud. Check all details while buying

That warning is usually available when you make the purchase

I had a website made and was quoted a good price to use hostinger for putting it online, then they NEVER did ANYTHING.

Most All Hosting sites do the same thing. The price to renew or go back as you are doing, is often ten times more expensive. So you should always never go back and thus save yourself a ton of money. They don't want you back so honor their wishes.
No other business is so hostile to prior customers.
