Empowr Empowr.com Empowr is a scamming program for social media Internet
Empowr claims to be a outgrowth of FANBOX, focused on selling products and making money rather than social media. They have first class platform that clearly shows you how to built a community, list products for sale, run ads for thoe products, and then cash out after 90 days of maturity, less their 2.9% fee for running the platform. It sounded okay at first, and I built up a balance well over $5,000 that was due to me.
Then, they started taking money from my PayPal account, instead of from the "balance" I had built up in my account. At first it was a small amount of $25. Then it was $250. Then it was $500. All the while my "balance" was maturing to the 90-day point. After 4 months; however, I was still prohinited from cashing out anything. $0.00 had matured, and the fees were draining my PayPal account.
I did manage to list about 60 products for sale, but all of the listings were rejected after a few days. They forced me to list cheap Indian-made purses and worthess toys that were overpriced, which I refused to do. I did manage to sell some autographed books, paid for the shipping, and never got paid for the books or the shipping. I lost about $200 in product.
I searched for complaints about Empowr, but only found a few disgruntled people. Not the outrage I feel right now. I have blocked Empowr from damaging my PayPal account any more, and they write me every day demanding that I "protect" my account by giving them a major credit card or my PayPal account number.
I believe this to be a scam, and they have now been around long enough that there should be some signifcant outrage. The bad this is that the Empowr communities are mostly unemployed single people who are desperate for something online where they can make some money. I think they shold be stopped, before more people get hurt.
