Received an email from Treasure Trooper letting me know that I was to receive payment for surveys in five days. I opened up PayPal on day two and there was a payment for $65 dollars. I was skeptical of doing online surveys from the start but when I realized I received a payment my enthusiasm was renewed. "Wow I made some cash and didn't leave the house". Now I was determined to evaluate these avenues of income. The surveys are all somewhat the same and they do get a little boring. But, I decided it was convenient to sit at home with some coffee and go at my own pace.

aka: freecreditreport.com *Triple Advanta877-481-6825 CA $12.00

Here I was ripped off for $12.00. I called this company CIC Triple Advanta at 877-481-6825 and explained I signed up for the Free Credit Report. Something about the word free and then seeing $12.00 sucked out of my back account did not make sense. The people at CIC Advanta said they would not refund my account for the $12.00. They said they have canceled my service, but I am reading online that some people request it to be canceled and they are still being charged months later. I called my bank and they said there is nothing they can do. Do not ever sign up for this service. Search the web for this company and you will find pages of rip off stories.. I was on the Fed Trade Commission pages and found a ton of information on this scam. How does the FTC, FBI and other Government Agencies allow these companies to prey on common people. They are ripping people off and they know they are doing it. I guess that is business. The rich get richer preying on people and the poor get poorer. Free Credit Report did a Refund after calling and sending emails! Refund was processed after 2 phone calls and an email!

The PayPal and eBay conspiracy as I like to call it! Lately a buyer(Diane M Krantz of Oswego) bought an item for $4.84 from me. The item was shipped. The buyer complained that they never received. I provided the receipt to PayPal that it was shipped. PayPal sided with the buyer and I had to refund $4.84. This is not much but I also lost *Listing Fees *What I paid for the item *Hours of my time between PayPal and the buyer trying to resolve, what I would consider and error by the USPS or a buyer that did receive the item and lied therefore receiving it for free! Contacted by PayPal again with a buyer(Kris Deburro of Springfield) claiming Item Not as Described. Item was listed on eBay stating "AS IS". The buyer never asked questions or requested additional photos. I have a feeling that I am going to eat $14.00 on this one plus what I paid for the item plus my listing fees plus my time. Hey Buyer Protection is a great idea but I think it is biased towards the buyer. What if everyone claimed they did not receive? Just buy on ebay, get the item, file a complaint and get a refund. Shazaam! free stuff!!!

Passport To Fun Telephone 877-442-5780

Another mysterious charge on my Bank Account in the amount of $14.95 Debit Passport To Fun. I called the number and aske where they are located, answer Montreal Canada. I asked what services I was being charged for and they could not give me an answer. All they could tell me is that it was for another company called Major Savings and that they had no other information. I requested that the charged be reversed and I be canceled from whatever program this was for. I was told I would be refunded in 5 working days and was given a confirmation number. I will post results of this possible Scam next week. Passport To Fun did give me a refund after 1 phone call!

Finally have time to update this site some. My latest loss was with a firm called TAC Worlwide. Their web address is www.tacworldwide.com . After spending 4 hours on my cell on a conference call(3 of which was waiting for them to get organized!)my cell bill arrived in the mail. I was overcharged on my minutes which put me $136.93 over for the month. I contacted Bob Gilchrist and requested a refund which he half agreed to do. After not hearing back from "Good Ole Bob" I decided to send him a reminder email(by the way I never head from Bob Gilchrist again)which follows:

Bob,

I did receive the payment for the VA training which came to about $82.  My cell overrun for the conference call cost me $136.93 giving me a total of -$54.93.

Could you please let me know about getting my $136.93 paid so I can be out of the red?

In addition to that my unemployment was shorted for the week.

Wasting my time for the week and then paying out of pocket is a bit hard to absorb financially.

So after putting in about a week of training for a call I never went out on I am in the RED probably over $200 dollars.

Bob Gilchrist and TAC Worlwide apparently don't give a shit that I was ripped off! All I can say is lesson learned with this company. My advice is "If you are a Tech.... Stay away from TAC Worldwide"

Called another Tech from my region and he told me they still owed him monies... Go Figure!

Google AdSense  Here is another ripoff!  During 8 months using the Google Adsense Program I earned $100.  After about a 4 month period I was up to another $100 or so..  Just the day they are supposed to pay I receive an email stating my account was disabled for some Awords reason.  Wonder if they pay their advertisers back when they do this.  Quite a scam!  I never changed their adds or clicked on them.

Here is their notification:
