Complaint Review: Kim Komando Show & IPOD

Kim Komando uses IPOD as one her advertisers. On her website she represents that you will receive a free IPOD for conducting a survey and states that "it really works". What she doesn't tell you is that the survey is very, very long and is comprised of other advertisers asking questions about likes, dislikes, etc.

The real problem lies in buying some of these advertisers products. The first page of the survey states you need to buy 3 of the products advertised on that page (which is extensive). If you do that, the survey moves to the next page and guess what....you have to buy three more items. By the time you figure out that this is really unscrupulous business practice, you have already purchased 3 gimmicky items and there is no turning back. Most of the offers say you can return items but that is really a nightmare and I found impossible to do in one case. I never, never do these kind of things but since Komando represented that the offer was real, I trusted her. Now, not only do I have American Express fighting with one of the vendors for unscrupulous business practices because I could not contact them by phone as required, I have received a barage of emails from companies that had no way of getting this brand new email address except through komando and ipod.

I am very, very angry and disappointed with this "digital goddess" and that she would assign her endorsement to such a scam.

DON'T TRUST WHAT SHE SUPPOSEDLY ENDORSES.
