Is The Blog Ads Network offer legit?
Dec 15th
Here is an email I received…
Subject: Is purchase of blog legitimate
Message Body:
Hi,There is a particular offer on this website that I would like to know if it is real or not. The website is http://careermaster.biz/about/
Basically each blog is part of a network of about 2000 blogs. He calls it the Blog Ads Network.
He indicates to you that by purchasing one of these all you have to do is copy and paste articles to the blog of which you are being paid by other website to put them their. The network supplies you with the articles every day.
You can make a purchase for any amount from $100 to $30000. If you purchase for $100 the income generated will be between $17 and $20 a month or invest $1000 the income will be about $170 a month and so on up to $30000 where the income would be $5000 or more.
Is all of this possible. He would either start a new blog for you or give you one that is already generating income. He also guarantees your money back if you are not happy.
Could you please tell me if this opportunity is on the up and up.Thank you very much,
Jeff
Jeff, I don’t have to look very far into this one to tell you it is not legit. All they are giving you is a pop-up wordpress blog with recycled content. The blog isn’t even well setup. It is terrible. If the fact that their “PayPal Screenshot” shows their browser to be in a foreign language and that their testimonials all link to junk look-alike blogs then I don’t know what is… STAY AWAY. This is clearly garbage!
Flippa Banned / Suspended my Account – Help!
Dec 14th
Here is an email I received from someone who felt like they have been wrongly banned / suspended on Flippa…

I just bought a website at flippa. I have had many successful transaction. Both buys and sells. Now flippa makes a claim that I owe a huge bill from an account they said I owned over a year ago because my payment was the same. they say if I do not pay this bill that is owed I can not continue to buy and sell at flippa.I can assure flippa and anyone else that the claim is false. I can verify any info they want. I have only EVER had one account. I am not sure if they made a mistake or are just retards thinking I am a sheep and will just hand over some more money for nothing to them so I can continue to sell sites.
Anyway this goes I will never use flippa again.
I understand that mistakes do happen. I have had the same phone number for many years and have telephone verified my account. I am who I say i am and have only had one account. My social accounts are even tied in with flippa.
Why do they not bother to recheck there info. Instead of just demanding me to pay a bill that is not mine!
It is of my thought that the supposed user does not exist and that there is no bill associated with the user that they just want to extort me for money. They picked the wrong person to screw over if that is the case. I will make sure everyone knows about this.
Here are my thoughts…
Well, it would help if you would share your account name and other information. It is hard to understand your case without any specifics. I do highly doubt Flippa is suspending people just on a whim or to try and extract some small dollar amount of fees.
Not that this is related, but I do find it ironic that this mail comes to me right after SmartBusiness (Invictus7) was suspended/banned from Flippa. We have been saying here that they are the same person; maybe this was confirmed by Flippa recently…?
**Let us know more details about your situation and we can talk to Flippa about it.**

I highly doubt Flippa is out to scam you. It is probably a simple misunderstanding or, perhaps, you have an account from the past you forgot about. But, since you say you will never use Flippa again there is really no reason to even worry. I am sure they are not going to send you into collections so just consider your relationship with Flippa over. And, if you DO have a legitimate bill to pay then pay it. If you cannot afford it, let them know honestly and see what they can do to help you.

We have been HACKED / ATTACKED again!
Dec 6th
For a bit over a week we have been the subject of a major DDoS attack. This type of attack has little to do with our servers and their security. What happens in this type of attack is that someone creates a virus that infects unsecured PCs and uses them like zombies to flood a server with requests, causing it to become unstable and unreachable.
We were and are still under a major attack. Don’t worry, this has nothing to do with your info and you are not at risk by posting here, commenting, etc… The scammers just want to make you feel that you are. That being said, the scammer did also attack Clinton’s site because he too was on I Don’t Give a Scam outing frauds and scammers…
In fact, I got this message from “Santa Claus” moments before the attack majorly heightened and brought the server to its knees.
Chris, Clinton, Justin you are all foolish fools and I hate your pungent sites. You are scams and your federals will not care about your idiotic sites and silly conversations are ended. Merry Holidays. P.S. Thanks you for the direct link clinton to your site. Justin can you post yours please? Anyone else want to post a worthless scammy forum?
The comment was left on my “We Got Hacked” post.
It is beyond obvious that the meanie who launched the attack is someone I have outed as a scammer. Perhaps Invictus7/SmartBusiness from Flippa or George Pappas Jr. or perhaps someone else who has been outed here. Which means we are doing good work!
Oh, and George Pappas Jr. (and I will assume his girlfriend Jessica Briddes) did send this message recently:
how the hacking go scumbag? keep an eye on your back, your next
Ahhh…Â I don’t think Papas is capable of pulling off this kind of attack, but he could have hired someone.
Scammers, I want to congratulate you again! This cost me an entire weekend with my family, several thousand dollars, and some peace of mind. Hats off to your success! Now, please understand… You are not going to get what you want by attacking me. How is this going to keep escalating? Several of you have now even sent me threats on my life. What I have offered to you is a chance to reform your ways and become truly successful. Maybe now it is time to take this offer before you spiral any further into darkness. Scamming, now hacking and attacking? What next? The ball is in your court.
By the way, for those of you who are curious the attack was specifically a SYN flood.
Invictus7 is now Scamming People as SmartBusiness on Flippa
Nov 22nd
I just got this comment from one of my readers.
On another note, our old and banned Flippa friend invictus7 is back to his old tricks again.
https://flippa.com/users/374575
The dumbass doesn’t even try to hide the fact that it’s him as he’s listed auctions he’s supposively sold on his invictus7 account.
Wonder how long this time until Flippa shuts him down again.
I have contacted Flippa who is usually very prompt in working with me to get rid of these scammers. For anyone does not know the story of invictus7 or is considering buying a website from SmartBusiness on Flippa, you should read here first.
I Was Scammed by GamerFlex.com Auction at Flippa
Nov 19th
Here is an email I received from someone who felt like a seller was trying to scam people…
IP OF SENDER: 71.179.231.213
URL: GamerFlex.com Auction at FlippaIS A: Flippa Website Sale
Message Body:
This seller has a history of flipping websites with fraudulent revenue stats and bogus auction statements. The seller, Saidul Chowdhury (saidul.nyc@gmail.com) is a dump and pump artist.Check out the story at http://www.talkarcades.com/talk-arcades/13836-not-again.html
before the crooked admins at talkarcadse.com delete it.According to the provided flippa stats, on October 10 the site earned $97 in adsense alone but GA shows only 330 visits. This is an impossible return for any arcade site. The site averaged less than 3K game plays per day based on cached Google pages, so the revenue stats for each day are more than suspicious.
Even more impossible:

Here are my thoughts…
Well, the thread on the other site still exists so you can see all of the history (see quote above). I will say that looking through the seller’s listings the sites do look like automated icky-ness. As noted, this seller was also talked about before here.

“Dave Eaton” put up a flippa sale to sell both FlashGameTutorial.com and FlashGameTutorial.net. I won the auction. He delivered the .net but not the .com. If you do a google search for FlashGameTutorial.com you will see the flippa sales page.Here is his flippa feedback:
Excellent communication, smooth transaction positive Seller: jzig23 Private Tue, Dec 08 2009
Nice guy very thorough. Was a pleasure to deal with positive Seller: ShowBoat Private Thu, Dec 17 2009
I bought 2 domains. Seller delivered .net domain but not more valuable .com domain negative Buyer: carlking Private Sun, Feb 28 2010
WARNING! Never completed the sale. Ignored all of my polite emails. Took my money and ran, basically. negative Buyer: Salad Private Mon, Mar 01 2010
Here are my thoughts…
What happened to the seller? Did you contact him about the problem? What was his response? Perhaps he is trying to rip-you-off. Just be glad it was $15 and not $15,000.
I Was Scammed by Danny Wall, 4sqa.com, 4 sqared marketing, domaining-tools.com

Message Body:
I saw another post on here on this individual, Danny Wall, and wanted to add my story. This guy offered to supply me with a forex training education for three weeks for $1000 dollars. He also was going to trade my $1000 and then return it to me after the three weeks, keeping whatever extra he made off of it as profit. The “education” gave me was virtually non existent. More importantly, when time came to return my funds….stall, stall, stall after stall. It has been over two months now and zero money back. In this time I have found out he owes other individual in excess of $100000 and continues to accept money to this day. His new venture appears to be domaining-tools.com.
The other poster on here already has pretty much all the info on here posted up so I won’t post it again. STAY AWAY from this guy and if he has your money already, report him to IC3.gov at the minimum.
Here are my thoughts…
Looks like this guy is starting to get a bad reputation. Chances are he is stalling because he cannot afford to pay you back; which means he probably is not very successful at ForEx trading.

Message Body:
oh sorry i forgot to mention…. i suggested we at least exchange copies of our ids he said not over the email b/c he had his id stolen when doing that once. But my thinking is how do i know he is who he says he is and viscera? And what good is a contract going to do me if hes liying? this is my first time trying to buy a website. So i may just be paranoid. but I’ve bought other business before that people said would never work and they turned out fine. it’s just that i spoke to those people in person.
thanks
again
Rebakah
Here is what I think…
Whenever you decide to buy a website all you need to ask is a contract and bill of sale, both of them needs to be notarized like this you can be sure of the person who notary this because when you going to notarized document you have to bring your photo ID otherwise the document will not be notarized.

Hi, I’m in the sports handicapping industry, and I was looking for additional website to purchase when I came across George Pappas Jr from docsportsservice.com… I noticed that he was selling it on Flippa, however I contacted him at the email docsportsservice@gmal, and he told me that we would sell it to me for $1500 and also provide me with a list of 232 customers, which he didn’t have, I then also hired him as a handicapper, and realized that he wasn’t a “real handicapper” I paid him money for his services, and his website, and he screwed me big time! He changed all the access acounts at the last minute from godaddy, so I couldn’t get access, then He Slandered me on the forums saying that I WAS I Scam artist??? I have never had any complants about me or my business…. THEN I found this website idontgiveascam.com, and found him on here with complants that he has done this before?? This guy needs to go down…. My attorneys are working on this matter right now!!! Any extra info on this guy??? His girlfriend is in on it too, and she also is on this site, named Jessica Briddes…Check it out
Here are my thoughts…
Yes, we have plenty on Pappas and Briddes. This scammer is one of the worst I have come across. He cannot even handicap sports? Big surprise. He offered to pay one of the people he scammed off in sports picks. Lol.
