    Shorty your a lien BAST**D

    I personally asked for my money back about 2 weeks after as i realised he wasnt a "man of his word"...

    I have not recieved a refund or even communication from shortd81. Tried to resolve this in private but his lack of communication has let me to make things public....

    I think that someone from DP should flag this thread so other people dont pay for this service until its resolved. As its plain to see that other want to sign up for this service and its inevitable that they to are going to be in the same situation in a few weeks...

    My Problems with Shorty

    1. His pork pies (lies)
    2. Communication issues (probably stems from his pork pies)
    3. Has changed his deal – At first he wanted to do some SEO work and now just seems to be selling a report service

    Not cool man, Now when do I get my money back, answer that question?

    Shorty

    I have CANCELLED my subscription to this SEO service in view of the very negative feedback from other DP members and the very limited communication from shorty to legitimate concerns raised in this forum.

    After waiting more that 3 weeks for some feedback all I received was a 'short' 3 page basic SEO report that could have been easily generated in the first week.

    I do not feel that I have received value for money and like "lamans" I would like a refund on my first months subscription, since no real work on behalf of my website was undertaken. The 'report' would be valued at no more that $5 so I request a refund of the remaining $25.00

    I will let other DP members know the outcome of this request.

    Wow,
    Honestly man I'm not going to say nothing more then I am NOT SELLING reports. THAT REPORT I SENT YOU IS SIMPLY FOR YOU TO KNOW WHAT I DID AND THE PROGRESS. Did you even read it? I can how ever give you a $10 analysis of your site only which is what you are talking about.

    There are a couple of days left before I have to decide whether to cancel this service or not.

    Just for the fun of it, I give Short 1 more day to start delivering.

    Until now I haven't received nada, nakka, njet, mei shir, niets, de rien, nichts etc (please correct me if I made a mistake in the above languages:)

    I have contacted Short several times and I haven't been even so fortunate to receive a reply let alone a hint of a report.

    @AussieT - You're a lucky man that Short found time during his poker engagement, to actually finish a whole 3 pages for you:)

    In a way it's rather hilarious as people are still showing interest in his services. They probably must know something I don't.

    Short81 is probably well on his way to becoming a poker master and he plays the same game with his services.

    I don't know how many people subscribed to his services but I would guess most of them will sit out their time until the new billing cycle kicks in before they decide to take action. Maybe even some will give him another month of play money, who knows and that's also not up to me.

    Like I said, my dear Short81, I'll give you 1 more day to come up with either a great report, some fantastic excuse why you are not able to deliver and a promise you will do your utmost to have the report ready within the next month or maybe just a refund.

    The last option would definitely give you some credibility and as you're "up to $768" like you mentioned in your last option it wouldn't hurt you financially too much. I bet you're already up to $1000 by now.

    I have also not recieved ANYTHING from short. I canceled my service and filed a report with paypal awhile ago. Although I am sure it will go undecided because of the nature of what he is offering. I reccomend no one ever do business with him as I was just put off and never given a report. People like this need to be banned from DP.

    I WANT A REFUND

    Put your hands up and shout out if you feel as if you were roasted by Shortd81.

    I paid him $50 on the 15th of Aug 2006 for some SEO services and at the time he told me he was only accepting 1 more client.

    Personally I think its very tacky to post conversations with people in public but I feel as if stealing money on people under false pretences is an even worst crime.

    shortd81 (8/15/2006 5:14:42 AM): I'm offering full seo service EVERYTHING from analyzing to link development etc. Price is $50/month but I am willing to work with you.

    shortd81 (8/15/2006 5:14:59 AM): This is so you can see what I'm able to do and also for me to work on my portfolio

    etc etc etc

    Anyway he went on to tell me

    shortd81 (8/15/2006 5:23:56 AM): I only have 1 more spot left just so you know

    Making me feel as if I had to pay him then and there or I was going to miss out. So I would like to ask did anyone sign up after this date?

    @ Shortd81

    Look man all I want is a refund that’s fair seen its been over a month and I haven’t received any information from you regarding the service I paid you for. Now if you want to be fair return my money and from what I am reading other peoples money that received the same treatment from you as i did.

    As I expressed in our first conversation lack of contact is something I cant tolerate as there is no excuse for not being able to reply to a message or email in a few days.

    If this was the real world you would already have the money out and that’s fact.

    Now I don’t want to hear anymore excuses or any other rubbish its simply a YES or NO question are you going to return my $50 you took from me.

    You know that, i know that, and i am sure that anyone reading this knows that. i barely got you to answer my pm's until i made this issue public so why would you think i recieved a magic report that you never sent.

    What pisses me off is short actually told paypal that he sent me a report when he hasn't.

    Are the MOD's going to do anything about short's behavior?

    I have cancelled my subscription as, and we all saw it coming for some time now, Short81 isn't very reliable.

    @lamans I signed up the 24th of August - He's used an old sales tactic and he seems to have pulled it of, at least short term.

    I haven't much experience with filing a report with paypal. I could imagine that if most of us file a report that they he didn't deliver on his services, they make take some action.

    This is a typical example of a scam, well done in a way, and probably also shows that if a service seems to be too good/cheap to be true, one has to run the other way. Lesson learned.

    I got a pm from shortd81 saying I do what i do... NO REFUND...

    HAHAHA what a noob... 50 bucks isnt going to break my bank but ill spend 2 times it just to annoy you shortd81.

    Your a THIEF worst thing about it a bad one in the end you couldnt have made more than $500 ripping people off on this board... You would have made more than that from 1 of us if you just would have deliever on your weak a** promises.

    As far as i understand PAYPAL's help will be limited cuz its a service and he know this, however i believe that DP should make an effort to weed out this PUNK as no matter which way you look at it hes a rouge trader, as it seem i am not the only DP member to have recieved nothing but a bunch lies...

    Swaz you are not going to get a report. Or he will tell you i'll send it shortly.

    I reccomend everyone file a paypal complaint NOW so they will see all the pending cases against shorty and it will increase our chances at getting our money. If it's only a few at a time they may not give us a refund.

    Please make sure to include the URL of this thread as well as it will help show that short has scammed many people.

    I wasn't going to respond to you and lamans punchs but let me say this.

    Nash is the only one with a reasonable claim. As stated I HAVE Not ReSent the progress report. Lamans is just trying to drum everyone up to start something. Just look at what he is saying
    Report was sent TWICE if you look at what he is saying he is stating so himself.

    Put it this way guys. For all of you 3 who are trying to get your money back, how about trying to post your site here and I'll make sure I"LL POST EACH OF YOUR REPORTS.

    Mosaic - You are just ridiculous honestly. Did you pay with an e-check? Lets see when it cleared hmmmmmmmmm. not on the 12th right.

    I'm not just going to sit back and have you guys bad talk me, You are upset because what? Like I said Nash is the only with a reason to be upset. I had did his report first and didn't save it.

    I am not a scam artist as you are trying to imply either.

    Jaysus Shortd81 you have a brass neck kid... You haven’t sent me anything stop with the lies already. I guess everyone else that hasn’t received your magical reports is just making it up too damage your sterling credibility.

    “Your not a scammer”? humm ok lets see

    I paid you for a service, you can’t deliver on that service, you refuse to make contact or answer communications and when I ask for my money back you say NO.

    Now after me making it public you scammed me you now have changed your position by saying you sent me a report. You send nothing at all are you suggesting me and all the other people that haven’t received anything are really scamming you?

    You have been caught telling pork pies time and time again. Just in case you don’t understand the law its called "obtaining money by deception" its illegal its a fraud.

    You lied to me in order for me to make payment to you and refuse the return of my money its all recorded all chat and pm’s etc so there is no point in denying it.

    Now if you’re a stand up business man, a man of your word then and all that then, return my money

    lamans lol you are too funny. Got caught up lies you say? It's this short and simple

    "I SENT YOU THE REPORT"
    I guess you didn't read all of the post.
    Try doing that and then you may have noticed something.

    I have no reason to lie to you at all. How many have said they didn't get reports? hmmm and how many did get them.

    And so you know I'm far from a kid young one.
    I'll end it on that note if you want me you can email me. You do have my email right lol.

    short, I didn't pay for a report of SEO related stuff, I paid for you to do work on my site, link development, site structure etc. We were to the point where I gave you a login to work on my site remember?

    Anyways site is www.ProfileWizard.net, when are you planning on sending me this update?

    I know what you paid for nash the report is not a analyzing report it's so you know what I did as far as SEO.
    Getting the list together of directories and myspace pages that's what's taking so long.
