PTCWallet Scam Warning

Monday, May 11th, 2009

TalkPTC again reveal another site by GPTNetwork, the PTCWallet.
Since GPTNetwork already have a lot of scam history,
Here I suggest anyone not to join this site.

Other suspect thing:
1) Pay to Click up to $0.10 per click
2) Minimum payment is $100
3) From their TOS: “All earnings listed and/or represented by Ptcwallet.com are estimated value(s), actual value(s) subject to change with or without notice..”

EvoWallet Alert Light

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

Some anonymous just sent me something that I think some of us should concern:

Since it looks like sadly some *** admins are falling for the EvoWallet bait, id just like to warn all members to avoid this payment processor as much as possible.

I have not been able to find any any documentation or certification of this company for handling currency or electronically transferring money.

There is no telephone number or valid address. The only address listed on the website is in Costa Rica, and according to their laws any “currency” involved in EvoWallet is not real and you cannot take legal claim.

EvoWallet started off its campaign by contacting GPT owners and offering them money to promote and add Evowallet to their site. Unfortunately this “money” is not real and just EvoWallet funds, which the company can create an unlimited amount of.

Last time there is someone who checked LR address and found that their company didn’t exist.
Now their affiliate partner EvoWallter have been claimed that having problem too.
This might make sense to some and not to other,
but this sure light up the alarm about scam payment processor.

JJ Scam Again

Saturday, April 11th, 2009

News Taken From TalkPTC:
A Part from Eva Email:

The man, who wanted to steal our site , is promotiing now his own ptc site under our original domain………………

So please. log in to the sites

, and look at the promotional material, as you have to change your banners, links to ” 2 ”

If you promote the original site you support a cheater !

Let me tell you something about this man :

I bought 4 sites from him a year ago :

homeworkandpromotion.info

yellowroseptc.info

candyptc.info

and southerncomfortptc.info

he ” forgot ” to transfer the domain names to Eva’s names, and he thought he can do everything with us ! He made the e-mailers wrong, and asked horrible price to repair them, you may know I have several ptc sites, and when I had problem always were these 4 ones…….. and I could continue……… e t c.

I am not the first one , and I am afraid not the last. He is a cheater, he has stolen many other webmaster’s website this way. ……

I won’t publicate his name, but if someone asks me directly I will tell it because I would like to defend serious webmasters from a man like him !

Now, our sites are in the best hands, with a honest hosting company!

Nothing has changed, but from now, you have to promote :

homeworkandpromotion2.info

yellowroseptc2.info

candyptc2.info

and southerncomfortptc2.info

so please log in to promote area and if you run ads change the banners to ” 2 ” you will see them at promote area.

If any questions I am here, as always.

Have a nice day and greetings Eva-admin :

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

MyBux network that I listed in Scam Site since builded is now scam again.

which I prefer everyone not to join this site.

History: MyBux network is well-know for scamming by cheating your referrals. They will give excuse as system error while stealing your referral within you.

TakeTheGlobe Reset Database

Friday, February 27th, 2009

This is their announcement:

Here is the plan folks. We’re going to launch V2. We realize V1 has too many issues and people are earning more than they should thanks to a bug in V1. We have not secured an investor so what we are going to do is make this transition completely transparent. The idea is to launch V2 fresh. All users would start from scratch with a new system. User’s earnings from V1 will be paid one at a time over as long as necessary from V2’s profits since there is no bug to cause losses and more earning potential. We’ve decided that the proper thing to do is to make a list each time a V1 user gets paid it will be posted until ALL of V1 is paid out and V2 is running strong. TTG won’t let it’s fellow people down and in order to have a working program we need to move to V2 as soon as possible and work on V1’s deficit one user at a time. We apologise that this is our only option but given the circumstances we hope users understand the need for the change. V2 will run normally and users will get paid for their v2 usage as normal and ALL profit from V2 will be ported to v1 payments until the entire userbase’s earnings are cleared. We realistically expect this could take a bit but even those users no longer interested in being V2 members will still be paid in order. To those who understand the change we look forward to seeing you in V2. You can follow all progress on V2 HERE!

To all the naysayers. The support outweighs you and we will make this work.

Our plan is to work steadily from now until it’s ready and launch V2. Users will be able to register on V2 before too long.. V1 earnings are safely backed up in multiple areas and as said everytime a V1 balance is paid it will be available for all to see in V2.

TTG Staff

Another scammer that blame everything while scamming everyone
To stop the scammer from scam even more person,
I hope that no one ever join or invest in this site anymore!

Buxcorp Scam Alert

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

This is what they write in the announcement:

I am not the only one having this issue.

But I have talked to two other site owners recently and one of them said they have a ton of reversals from people doing fraudelaunt transactions.

They told me they had more transactions reversed and showed me who it was, and I said that same person bought from me, and he bought alot, and if they reversed my funds I would be in the hole.

Sure enough they reversed everything and I’m in the hole.

2/18/2009 Payment Received From jeson green
jesongreen@yahoo.com Reversed $12.00 USD
2/18/2009 Payment Received From jeson green
jesongreen@yahoo.com Reversed $80.18 USD
2/18/2009 Payment Received From jeson green
jesongreen@yahoo.com Reversed $63.48 USD

A negative account balance of $-43.77 USD exists in your U.S. Dollars account
You are required to transfer amounts from the following balance(s):

Would you like to continue with this transfer?
———————————————

I’m unable to make any payouts due to this, and sometimes if their credit card purchases we the site owners get charged $37 fee if it’s reversed.

I’m going to place a donation button on buxcorp that way we’ll have funds to continue paying our members.
I have a feeling this won’t stop unless we start banning countries such as russia and china and vietnam since they seem to be the ones doing these kind of transactions as of late.

If you request payout via instant pay while our account is in the hole, it will come back as a failed transaction.
Please bare with us while we try to resolve the issue.

No matter is that true or not,
I believe that Buxcorp will just run away without notice soon,
just similar to many scam site before.
This is a scam alert to anyone who plan to invest in the site.

Beside, I hope that you stay away from whole GPTNetworks as they already have many scam sites.
