I did business with fundzinger in March of 2015 and attempted to get more funding for my Kickstarter project. It started out just fine in the beginning and they were consistently sending me emails. I was very hesitant at first because they were asking for a large sum of money up front. I also asked for references, which they did not provide. Instead they wanted to talk more on the phone (later I would realize, fundzinger does this to avoid putting anything in writing).
After talking with only 1 fund zinger person over and over, it felt like I was dealing with some uneducated guy living in his parents garage. On the phone it seemed a little fishy. The person I talked with was Nick Talyor, im sure of it. He didn't seem very knowledgeable about crowdfunding either. But he claimed he could get me on CNN and that fundzinger had some kind of "inside connection to the editor at USA Today". This turned out to be a complete and utter lie.
Against my better judgement I decided to give them a shot. Part of it comes from my bad situation (my project really needed help) and partly because I didnt see any other offers. I figured they must be the best option right now. This is how they get your money. Its all hot air. Zero funding, zero results, zero communication, zero hope for his victims.
After they got my credit card I quickly got a charge for over $500 from the mysterous fundzinger company. I was never able to get more than an answering machine after that. Something obviously didnt feel right, so i started searching online. I found lots of bad reviews about fundzinger and found that they didnt even have a registered biz. FUNDZINGER INC DOES NOT EVEN EXIST! I could not find fundzinger on any business registry in the USA!
He did not give my any refund on my PR plan and was very rude. If only I had done more research on him. it looks like he has the funzginer "business address" in various parts of organge county. Watch out, HE WILL SCAM YOU.
I am forwarding this info on the FAKE PR BIZ to Kickstarter.
