This was the link that I used and talks about the 100 bids when you sign up.

Went to the website (priceshuffle.com) and registered and used the coupon. When I entered in the coupon it said that the bids had been applied. However, I then saw that I had 125 bids - I thought that this was strange and only expected 100. Then a few days later I saw that my CC was charged 75.75. This was completely unexpected. I called and asked for a refund and was denied. I just thought that there must be some sort of error. I am going to contact the BBB, My State Attorney General. The Cyber Internet Crime, the IC3 and several more to make sure that it is know how terrible of a scam this company is. Also, the news website where I suspect most of us got suckered is a fake. There are at least 4 versions of it: http://channel4newstoday.com / http://www.memphisgazette.com http://newstoday9.com http://consumernews-reports.com/shopping/penny-auctions/news2_bidsauce.php? T202id=81858&t202kw=swipe auction Take a look and notice these things:
All are supposedly owned by The Memphis Gazette implying that it is a newspaper. Yet in light grey tiny letters (that no one will read) on the Memphis Gazette site, it states: This site is not affiliated with any newspaper publication. This is a company that does not exist.
The male anchor is the same person on all 4 sites but has a different name.
The channel 9 and channel 4 sites use the same logo, modified from NBCs Today show to imply an affiliation. The anchors are the same, different names.
The article is exactly the same on all 4 and is written by Johanna on 2 of the sites but the photo of Johanna is of 2 different people. On the third site, the article is written by Julie and the 4th is Julia.
The comments section is closed because of spam and isnt it interesting that all of the comments are glowing???
Ive gone back to these sites repeatedly over the past few days and Ive noticed that the penny auction site being promoted changes when the special bonus promotion expires. New penny auction site, new bonus expiration date. Comments, however, do not change. There are at least 7 penny auction sites being promoted: PriceShuffle.com Wavee.com SpeedyBuys.com SwipeAuctions.com Swipebids.com Bidhere.com BidSauce.com QuiBids.com
