I am certain that www.viaziz.com is a scam which uses "bid bots" (automated company accounts that bid on products). I watched a number of 'auctions' over a period of 8 hours. I placed all $160 worth of bids on one product, after $45, it sold at $52. Automated bids were happening by the same account on a number of items during this 8 hour run. Bids would be placed as a single bid, though the name of the game would be to place a bid at the 1-2seconds remaining mark. These "bid bots" were placing bids at 20-30 seconds remaining, at a 0.01 second followup to other bids. There is no way a human would be stupid enough to place a bid at that point, nor place a bid after another bid has occurred as quickly and consistently as this was happening. Furthermore, as a previous person has stated the website has a session timer, which refuses entry from your IP address, so you can not sit and watch the auction run from beginning to end and bid as you please. You will bid, wait, bid - then all of a sudden be locked out for 2 hours and in the meantime your auction has closed.
Further investigation:
"www.pennyauctioninfo.com" outlines that viaziz only gets 183 page views per day... Hello? In no way does that equate to the number of bids that are apparently happening. It's registered in Indonesia and is worth $401.5. Do you think a legitimate, successful site would be worth $401.50?? TRADEME - A legitimate site, sold for $700 million!
Www.viaziz.com = SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM!!!
