Mark Warren is only selling a worthless website, along with his equally worthless ebooks, to set up yet another link to his scam site. You are first offered a deal where his "Ultimate Wealth Package" is marked down, for a limited time of course, from $149.95 to $99.95. Once you are at his website, he is feeling generous, and offers to cut the price in half to $49.95. If you start to navigate away from the page, a computer generated prompter, who is supposedly one of his associates named 'Jenny', (Get it, computer-generated, Jenny?), who then offers you another discount of $10.00, bringing the price down to $39.95. Once you are suckered in, and he has your card account number, you start getting bombarded with offers for web-hosting (which he strongly recommends) and a "Pro-Membership" which he also strongly endorses. If you don't quickly draw a line, you will easily be in hock to him for upwards of $500.00 with nothing to show for it and no solid promise of any return revenue. On the last page of his members area you will find a disclaimer that he makes no promise or guarantee that you will make any money with his program. Like I said, all it is in reality is his selling you a web link to his product site. His ebooks are supposed to show you how to advertise and drive traffic to your website which is then redirected to his website. You would probably never see a dime of commissions even if someone did buy his product through your website.
As soon as I could get out of his 'members area' I went straight to my email inbox and started copying every invoice. I then started using every email address and phone number I could find in the invoices and started trying to cancel. After over twenty minutes of calling and waiting, I got hold of one of his supposed associates, who were supposed to be available 24/7. It was some jerk who was apparently hanging around his house, because I could hear a rugrat crying in the background. He told me that I had to try the system for 60 days, and then I could ask for and receive a refund. I knew that, if he was even honest enough to give me any type of refund at all, it would only be for the initial $39.95, and that I would have to do battle with the other companies if I wanted all the money back.
I told the jerk that I would see if I couldn't do better than that and immediatly got in touch with my card company to stop payment, giving them all the information on the offending companies that I could. I have yet to see, but I hope that I got to them in time to stop this from being processed. I hope that I beat Mark Warren to the electronic draw. This is the third time that I have been scammed with websites. I was gotten twice within a month last year, and I believe that they were both the same people operating under two names. Arizona seems to be a hot state for this type of activity.
Though I couldn't say with certainty that this is where he is operating from, I see now that Mark Warren is working through several names. One of which being "Instant Money Vault". Also watch out for "Global Cash Flow Network" and "Traffic Designs". I don't know if they are associated with Mark Warren, or if they are still active, but they offer pretty much the same scam. A worthless website that no one will visit that are nothing more than links to their scam sites if anyone ever does visit it.
This is how these people stay in business. They will operate under a name until people start blowing the whistle on them, then just change the name and procedure.
I was contacted just a week or so ago by someone from a company called "I-Profit". I recognized this one for what it was right off. I asked where they were located and was told Arizona. I suspect that it was either "Global" or "Traffic" in a new garb since they were both from that same area. My advice would be to stay away from anyone offering a business involving a website that they set up.
If you want to start a business, find yourself a product to sell, and set up your own website, otherwise you are just helping someone else make money that you will never see any of. I would also be wary of these places offering to put you in touch with companies who will let you work from home for a fee. They offer no guarantee that you will get a job, and may very well be setting you up for other job scammers.
