Craig Lunde, IntraNovus, Marketersrevolution.com ripoff dishonest practice, stole thousands of dollars from me, bait and switch tactics Fontana California
I hired Craig Lunde to provide a website and software to run the site. After paying him the agreed upon amount he claimed he didn't have the funds to fix certain problems. I eventually paid him twice the agreed upon price.
At that time he said he was about to be thrown out on the streets because he had no money. His wife Dianne pleaded with me to lend them a significant amount of money. I sent the money but told Mr Lunde I would hire him for 15 months as a project manager for the website and the running there of rather then make the money a loan - he agreed.
I then asked him to write another small site, he asked for $5,000 when I said I could only pay $3,000 and he agreed to build it. This site by the way could be built for under $1000 in many places on the net. When he received the money he claimed he was going to have to charge me and additional $700 a month to run the site because I didn't have 1000 subscribers (an agreement I never made). When I refused he increased the monthly fee to $3500.
I offered to simply clear the board if he would transfere the system to me for a price that was still twice what it was worth. He refused asking for an additional $12000.
When I refused he took down my site, said he would also take all my material and set up a competing site dragging all my distibutors with him. In the end I received nothing for my money. The site was a constant problem and was never ready for full marketing.
In the end I found out that he is not a programer but only a guy trying to get in the middle of the sale and squeze out a fortune by duping the unsuspecting and trusting individuals that fall for his sob stories.
What a worthless human !

Slander is for untrueth. Personally, I would sue if it were me and I were indeed being Slandered. After $26,000 spent with Mr Lunde and having him excond with all the material I paid him for plus having been the victum of Mr Lunde's extortion attempt I was able to replace both sites with another developer for under $5000. Both sites are working much better then anything Mr Lunde put up and I am very pleased to finally be working with a competent and honest programer. Mr Lunde has still not made any attempt to repay me for the 15 months of services I prepaid him for nor any of the work he was paid to do. The one valid thing Mr Lunde said is his warning to get a contract before paying for any computor services. A valuable and painfull lesson learned Mr Lunde, thank you. May no other unsuspecting customer be treated to such a lesson!

I won't honor this slander with a full rebuttal. My time is too valuable. However, I will give this advice to anyone doing business with another person. If you are the provider of the service, be sure the customer signs a written contract before proceeding with the work. Be sure you are protected if the purchaser fails to live up to their verbal promises. I submitted such a contract to this complainant, but he never signed it. I foolishly did the work, and when this guy couldn't live up to the terms of that contract, he got ugly. I began receiving threats, insults, foul language and even harassing, threatening phone calls from friends of this vindictive individual. He even bragged about slandering me here on this website! If you are the purchaser of services, do not purchase without a written contract, and be sure you read the contract thoroughly before signing. Try to live up to your end of the bargain, and if you can't, try to renegotiate in a professional, non-combative manner. Thank you, Ripoff Report, for the opportunity to respond.
