Blue Chip Marketing Group - Cashing In On Auctions I was ripped off by Blue Chip Marketing Group Tempe Arizona
I was contacted by a very sweet sounding lady from Blue Chip Marketing Group. She was very persuasive and talked me into paying for a Cashing In On Auctions website, promising that I would get help with marketing to make all kinds of money.
A short while later I was contacted by the marketing department and made a further investment to have a radio/tv button installed on my website.
Despite the claims, I have never made any money from this website, and decided to write the loss off to experience. However, today I was contacted by another individual obviously with another sales pitch to get me to invest more money to "amortize" my website. I told her I was very upset at the lack of performance of the website, and did not want to talk to her. I then hung up, whereupon she called me back and told me that since I was so rude to her, she would not help me with the website!
My only purpose in posting this report is to warn others to stay away from Blue Chip Marketing Group and Cashing In On Auctions. They are nothing but scam artists!

Pauline, you are more than welcome to respond to me at rob@bluechipmarketinggroup.com so we can set up an appointment to discuss your complaint. Pauline on our terms and conditions page it clearly states "Any creative materials you willingly choose to incorporate with your business offered by Blue Chip Marketing Group such as any upgraded websites, Television Commercials, TV, Radio, or Audio Descriptor links, and Auto Responder in general carry no guaranteed, successful, or profitable results. Marketing tools are offered to our members with the intent to possibly create more public awareness to potential consumers."
Now when we listed that what did you think we meant by that? Pauline you have to advertise your business if you want to have an oppurtunity to have people visit your website. Please provide our company with proof that you have done that, which I'm sure you have not before making apocraphyl statements defaming my company as a scam. You are in direct breach of violating terms and conditions with the purchase that you made. We will give you an opportunity to revise your statement or action may follow. As an obligation to you we will continue means to contact you about this complaint.
With Regards,
Rob Mann

We understand when dealing with a large scale of clients that from time to time a frustrated consumer will excersie his or her right to voice frustration such as this consumer has. We believe that we try to the best of our ability to educate all conumers about all of our products and services offered by Blue Chip Marketing Group along with all terms and conditions predicated around all business matters. Please be sure and educate yourself to all terms and conditions surrounding sales which can be viwed at our main website www.bluechipmarketinggroup.com along with the website program we own www.cashinginonauctions.com. Within those terms and conditions you will find responsiblites of my business along with responsibilities you as a consumer agree to abide by when conduct business with my organization.
Buying a website or fancy marketing tools such as the ones offered to all of our consumers, alone does not guarantee anyone any promises of revenue or profit. This statement is clearly stated on the websites owned by Blue Chip Marketing Group along with all sales invoices signed and dated by our consumers. We strongly encourage you or any consumer not to purchase any of our marketing tools if you have no intentions of ever advertise the business we build for you.
I challenge you or any consumer who has a frustration against myself or my organization to provide proof that you indeed gave yourself the opportunity to advertise your business. For example, if we build you a tv commercial to promote your website and you choose not to air your commercial to broadcast your business then how do you expect to have an opportunity for anyone to see it? How or in what way does that constitute any means of misrepresentation or fraud? Fraud is difined as intentionally trying to inflict harm on someone. We believe we do the best that we can to provide services to all of our customers with the intent to help them have an opportunity to create more public awareness to their customers. When problems occur we attack them. Just like any concern we will do the best that we can to address this issue. Again I strongly urge anyone who is reading this to fully understand all terms and conditions surrounding all sales when you choose to do business with us. When starting a business with the intent to make money risk will always be in play. I challenge you to show me on my websites where I didn't make that very clear. We do not promise to any of our consumers any guarentee of profits or money. If you choose to get a gym membership but you never choose to go to the gym is the gym a fraud because in this scenario you where out of shape? Please make sure when doing business with us you work within what you are comfortable of spending. On an end note you are not required to purchase any additional marketing tools if you choose to buy a website from us. However if you choose to do so as I previously stated be fully aware of your responsibilities along with all refund and or cancellation policies and rights surrounding that purchase.
