I have the same experience as the fellow in the previous post. I bought a Site Map with 100 products for $4,000. Supposed to be only 750 available. They were supposed to have a patented method of beating search engines and placing these sites in #1 position at all times. Promos to be done by AWSM Tech for $40 each quarter per product payable only upon each product selling more than $40 in profits. Anytime a product profits above $40, I pay only $40 and keep the rest. Otherwise, they keep promoting for free. Other people were supposedly making $10,000/mo and, per their web ad, several have become millionaires.
Results - Zilch.in March, Matt Lauren calls to say they have a new and better program, i.E., the MicroSites. SiteMap has been discontinued because Yahoo changed their algorithm. He wants me to change over to that so I can make more money, so I need another $4,000 to get in.
"You kidding?", I asked. "You want another $4,000 because the first $4,000 project didn't work? Don't you owe me some money instead?" Matt replies, "Well, it certainly isn't our fault they changed the algorithms." Now it becomes my fault? They're the experts, they're supposed to figure out something that works!
Instead, they just come around with a new spiel. This time, I'm supposed to be getting paid directly by Google on a Pay-per-Click basis. $30 a click. Just a click. No viewing, no unique visits, just per click. Fidning that incredible, I asked for a contract to be sent. He says, "Oh you will get a contract. Everything we talk about will be in writing." I said, not will be. I want to see a contract before you get anything from me.
Boom! He blurts it out, "I can't give you a contract because the agreement is not with us. Its with Google. They'll send you a contract." I'm writing Google to ask them if they even know how their name is being used by these A-holes.
This company is an outright scam and I want my money back as it was obtained under false pretenses with no intention to honor their part of the bargain. This is patently fraudulent and they need to be closed down and locked up.
