I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I've been conned and I need to warn others. This is a new internet marekting 'product' which is now being promoted in its 'pre-launch' phase. Recently, I paid $97 subscription for the first month of the “University of Internet Marketing†(also known as Incredible System) program, marketed by JB Virtual Enterprises Inc. (JB is an acronym for Justin Blake). I was under the impression that it would be like Success University, which has a wide range of useful professional and personal development courses. Boy, was I wrong! First of all, support was atrocious. I couldn’t log into the program after paying, so I sent a support ticket to the system for help. Almost 4 days passed before I got a response. Finally, I got into the system. What I found was a huge disappointment. Instead of finding useful resources like courses, e-books, seminars, workshops etc. on internet marketing, all I found was a system for recruiting sign-ups into the so-called program. This was the so-called UOIM affiliate program, whereby recruiters (also known as affiliates) would earn a commission for every person recruited. There is no real product involved. The vendor provided information on how to find recruits, and even had supporting ‘materials’ like sample advertisements for recruitment. From what I could tell, it was nothing more than a pyramid scheme. I confronted the vendor via the support ticket system. When the vendor finally responded, they denied that UOIM was a pyramid scheme. Yet, they couldn’t show me any courses! I demanded my money back. On the UOIM / Incredible System website, a 90-Day Money-Back Guarantee is promised. Believe it or not, these guys refused to make the refund. Not only that, but they promptly locked me out of the program. I couldn’t log in anymore. Even more audacious, they sent me a message around a week later to taunt me. Isn’t this a clear case of cheating in every sense of the word? Can anyone suggest what I can do next to get justice? Watch out for JB Virtual Enterprises Inc. and their ‘products’. They’re downright dishonest! chillipadi
Did you pay by credit card? If so try contacting your credit card company. Document "all" details and keep a copy. Be aware that the merchant may charge you again even though you get a refund. I had it happen and it required a lot time and effort to get the matter resolved! I believe the merchant can protest the refund for a period of up to 1 year?
Thanks all. Ever since I started posting on various forums to warn others about the University of Internet Marketing (also known as Incredible System) marketed by JB Virtual Enterprises Inc, I've been getting replies alerting me to threads in various forums complaining about these people. You can find a couple of fascinating threads at Allan Gardyne's Associate Programs Forum and Lynn Terry’s Self-Starter’s Weekly Tips Forum (under the topic ‘Beware of Justin Blake’), and Anthony Blake’s Forum (under the topic ‘Scam’). Read them and see for yourself why people are calling Justin Blake and Charles Ryder dishonest. There're a lot of interesting comments about their pit bull Diane Sullivan too. Don't get scammed by these con-artists! chillipadi
