Comments on: Google Profusion Scam Uncovered http://jonathanpaston.com/google-profusion-scam-uncovered/ The Ramblings of a Journalist and Internet Marketer Fri, 25 Nov 2011 13:36:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Frank http://jonathanpaston.com/google-profusion-scam-uncovered/comment-page-1/#comment-902 Frank Sat, 12 Nov 2011 13:25:18 +0000 http://jonathanpaston.com/google-profusion-scam-uncovered/#comment-902 2 years ago I had the same experience in South Africa. I was dismayed at having to suddenly pay nearly R500 after thinking that R30 intro was all there was to it. I had a service contact person that I could not understand her accent. Then I got to a manager. She listened to my complaint. My money was not refunded, but she persuaded me to just look further. Which I did. BUT don't shoot me down yet. I had studied Correy Ruddel's course, so I know bulls*t when I see it. However there was value in that site. Those videos were good. The subsequent guide line seemed to be ok. I did not take the offer further as I was not happy with the way I was pushed into it. I wonder how many people actually looked further, once they got over the shock of the billing? What got me thinking was that to host those videos and the other sites must have cost money. Why would a scam artist spend that kind of money just to rip people off. I am undecided, but regretfully disappointed at my first encounter. 2 years ago I had the same experience in South Africa.

I can't go back any farther as I had to cancel the card the charge was placed on to effect the credit back. I have called the number that usually sends you to voicemail but i think I found a way around that when it asks for a extension hit 00 and it seems to go straight to the operator which doesn't offer musch in the way of resolution to the fraudulent charge. Here is what I have found so far. This is a company called Service Corporation of America who handles the billing for ProfitProfusion, However they, get this, don't have their phone number or anyother way of contacting them, but the girl said all that information is available on their web site, NOT. Have you ever heard of such a thing, yea me too. On their web site there isn't even a hint of customer support, or contact info, no thing nowhere perion.

And now you make this blog to tell people how disgusted you are about the scam? You are a sheep. You honestly thought that someone making money for doing nothing would share it?

Thanks for the post. I nearly paid for it. I was only a second away, when it said "click here to confirm you have read the terms". So i decided to do that, and WEHEY! You get charged $59.99 after 3 days. Its a scam because it doesnt mention anywhere on the site, that you are going to be pulled in like this. Guys like these need to be shot in the walnuts for taking advantage of people who are already struggling. THIS IS A SCAM! Thanks for the post. I nearly paid for it.

I can't believe I could be so Naive. As Elmarie mentioned, it had been sort of changed to suit South Africans in a very sloppy manner(I also immediately noticed the price for the flat and the pound sign). When I saw the ad, though, I wanted to sign up immediately but luckily I had run out of internet cap just then! I told my mother about it and she immediately said its a scam, too good to be true. Today I thought I should look up the site again sinse I still wanted to sign up, and had nothing to do. But no matter what I typed into google search engine (I tried alot! "linda davis' Sucess stories with google" "post link make money" "google internet kit" you name it) I couldnt find the site. Luckily I found this one first. I hate to admit it, mom, but it turns out you were right. It was TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE! Such a pitty though -sigh- Would have been nice to generate some extra cash. hahaha, anyway have a great day people. I was very close to signing up to this product too.

Like mine? Or you just felt like posting here? Or worse, you've read it but you stupidly commented? I am a victim of this scam, and so are most of those who commented here. Personally, I signed up for GOOGLE PROFUSION and was asked to pay ONLY half of the shipping fee. But after a long wait, I didn't get anything - NOTHING but a full charge of the shipping fee plus a WTF-i-don't-know-what's-that-charge for! In fairness to Jonathan, he has helped a lot of people already, those who were lucky to have read this blog before signing up.I have 2 questions for you: Why on earth you're questioning us for calling it a scam if we haven't tried it WHEN WE ACTUALLY ALREADY HAVE??!!?!?! And the other question is, HAVE YOU? If not yet, why don't you? All I can say is GOOD LUCK! Think first before you post anything here. It appears that your fingers type faster than your brain work!

And have done so with success? It would be very interesting if you could share your experience and success report with us. Everyone here volunteers an opinion (without having to sign up for anything), and you are certainly entitled to yours; it would be very interesting and of value to all of us if you could report on your positive experience with Google Profusion. And just out of interest, I can assure you that we are not "internet newbies". I for one have been an Online Marketing & eCommerce Strategic Consultant for one of the world's largest CRM consultancies since 2001. The intention of this forum is not to badmouth products without warrant, and no one has any personal agenda; we simply share the actual and factual experiences of real internet users (with different levels of competence), with the view of giving those making the effort to do research before committing, some independent views and a fair chance. Looking forward to hearing from you again. Elmarie Dear Greg,
