On January 16, I ordered 4000 likes for $417.99 and paid that same day, Order Ref 0493-1273. On Feb 23, I emailed owner Mario Johnston to let him know I had not gotten any new likes and he replied, Good timing, order was placed into processing today. Fans will start liking in the next 48 - 72 hours.
How convenient that it takes 6 weeks for any customer to start seeing likes so that the PayPal dispute period ends. And then the fake profile likes started pouring in, so I emailed him again on February 29, saying, I am at 2,650 likes right
now but I ordered 4,000 (and started at 558) and it will be 6 weeks tomorrow, 2/27, since I placed my order on January 16. And the people who "like" me are obviously fake with names like "Topnotch Seedling" and "Foursome Catalyst" and "Electron
Withdrawal." There's also "Derisive Maladept" and "Forceful Allied" and "Downturn Weatherstrip, " "Remorseful
Honky" who has the same picture as "Vivacity Ceylon" and appears just below her, and "Hiroshima Clothesline" and "Oneupmanship Ragout" and "Suckling Teakettle." I have a wibiya toolbar installed on my site that allows my visitors to see a short pop-up version of my facebook page and recent likes, but lots of no-photos and first names and like "Decapitate, " "Sharecrop" and "Polypropelene" do not add credibility to my site or me - they make me look bad. Blumpo FAQ says I was paying for 4,000 real likes, real people, not fake obviously made up names. Is it possible for you to actually deliver to me 4000 *real* likes over 6 weeks, not 2000 fake likes over night? He replied two days later with, We are investigating the source of the likes you received as they are not typical. Once we have investigated we will start the order again.
By March 27, I had a whole bunch more fans with names including Subjectivity Mediocre, Tangent Conservatory, Thunderbird Irresolute, Lioness Insomnia, Amazon Ventilate, Hooves Hermolytic, Scenario Nightmarish (no kidding!), Inferior Vietnam, Snubbing Panicky, Accusative Nominee, Pickaxe Bilateral, Illustrious Impressario, Biharmonic Afterward, Conflagration
Pantotheric, Connubial Nonsensic, and Squishy Infantry. Ive been trying to get my money back since May 1. Its June 1 now. I never did get 4000 fans, not even fake ones.
If you search blumpo scam in a search engine, you will come across a site called Fan Lookup which I tried to post a review of their awful service on and my review never posted! It wouldn't appear at all. Could it be another one of Mario's fraudulent sites? And the other reviewer on this site had a response from Blumpo and its "staff member" claims Blumpo is located in the US. No, actually. They are in Australia.
Bottom line: waste of money, time, and energy in trying to get your money back. I told Blumpo support that as soon as they refund my money, I'll update my online reviews of their unethical, unjust, immoral, conartistry-derived, sham, scam, snake oil, fraudulent internet business to at least show that they finally gave me my money back. As of right now, I haven't gotten back a dime. Mario Johnston stole my money, gave me fake profiles under false pretenses, refuses to refund my money, and I hope this review prevents many more people from being ripped off in the same way.
