    If you paid via credit card you can do a charge back directly with the credit card company, otherwise you are out-of-luck :-( -- The web is full of scammers so you have to be careful and deal only with those that already have good reputations.

    I got a tips for proxy buyer: a good proxy is a proxy with huge direct traffic source.

    After you bought it and got only a fraction of it's direct traffic that showed on his data then you know for sure you got cheated cause loyal visitors don't just vanish away.

    login, I live in New York State and well they are not suppose to get away with it because we have a lemon law, however, you have to feel out a small book worth of paperwork, pay $250 fee than wait six months for the Attorney Generals office to investigate and than you get a hearing and hope that you win. The great system of government at work.;)



    I think he kind of figured that part out already. His problem is what to do since he found out after he purchased the proxies that the traffic was by bots.
