Well I can't tell you how disappointed I am with the people in this forum. I have been a member for the past 6 months and have been scammed 4 times by service providers paid in advance on this forum. 1. A 100 article pack that was not delivered. No reply from the service provider. 2. 25 original articles that apparantly passed copyscape that were found indexed over 1,600 times on google and consequently got my accounts at article sites shut down, including ezine articles. No reply from the service provider. 3. 10 articles that have taken 3 weeks to write, still undelivered with nothing but excuses from the service provider. 4. 38 articles that look like they were written by a 4 year old, the grammar and word selection was so poor. No reply from the service provider. Why do people try to run a business like this? How the f*%# do these people have positive itraders? What a rort there. What are the Digital Point forum owners doing about it? Your business is built on quicksand is fast being erroded by these filthy opportunity seekers. This is fast becoming the underworld of the sleazy internet marketing world.
I don't see how it is DP's fault that you got scammed, I have never really been scammed here. Use your common sense, look at people's feedback. And if you have been scammed, then chargeback your credit card or something.
Why are you giving *any* random person you don't know on the Internet money up front for ANYTHING? Always use escrow services for anything... always. We can't protect you if you don't want to protect yourself.
maybe there should be a better way to find unsolicited reviews from people who received services from the provider
I have never been scammed on DP. Though then again I never deal with people I consider shady. Just use your own judgement when purchasing things. Like the saying is: "If it looks too good to be true, then it usually is!", so don't fall for those irresistible offers. Also what you can do is post negative iTrader to them. Only problem is that you might get the same treatment back. But at least it stops others like yourself who purchase from these scam artists(tm). Thus ends the cycle of scamming from that particular person if the buyer is smart.
If you're such a gullible man then don't do business whit people from India , Russia , Nigeria , China , Romania & Pakistan (sorry DP special) or use a manual escrow service .
one thing about the negative iTraders. imagine i get scammed and I leave a negative iTrader. then the one I left negative iTrader for leaves negative iTrader for me. when eventualy he/she gets banned, which happens to the scammers, would it be nice for the negative iTrader to be removed from my iTrader page. I'm not sure if it is or is not this way right now
