They lie and say that it is free membership. They just want to verify age. after entering all info I went back to the site that takes info and canceled membership becouse I was worried that they would still charge me the a month later it was on my bill for $47 I went to the site listed on my statement the opened a second billing account so the one they billed was differnent then the one the charged but same site.today I went through it again just to double check and it never mentions anything about any charge or reoccuring charges (this time did not enter credit info) this is fruad and I hope they get into seriuos trouble and get huge fines and go out of business. I found some info on the guy who is the owner of EMC Ideas, Inc which owns the trade mark of porntube.com it is Micheal Cardone 29150 medea LN agoura hills CA 91301. will include phone # and email if I find it.

FORGOT TO MENTION - Avoid their shady advertisements! A whole new and terrible experience with that side of the biz.

Fri, October 16, 2009

After seeing several ads online and in newspapers, I searched for them online, found their website, and filled out a basic form with my contact information. Their St. Louis office phoned me the next day to arrange for me to come in for a "consultation." The woman was polite but gave me very little information over the phone, saying they preferred to do an in-person presentation. I went to their office and was first shown a 15-minute video giving an overview of their service, after which I met with one of their employees to discuss the program.

After she described how their service works, I told her that I was interested in meeting women between the ages of 24 and 35 (I am 33) and asked about how many female members they had in that range. She wouldn't give me a number, but kept saying "We have new people signing up every day." I told her that if they wanted me to spend the exhorbitant amount they were asking for membership (over $5000 -- yes, you read that correctly), I needed to know that they had a large enough member base for it to be worth my money. She then told me that I could also use their service to meet women through their centers anywhere in the country, or even women who "visited" St. Louis. I told her I wanted to know approximately how many female members they had IN THE ST. LOUIS AREA and within the age range I specified. I finally got her to reveal that they had about 125-150 females in St. Louis within that age range.

The contract they wanted me to sign says all over it that there are no cancellations or refunds for any reason, so I emphasized that before I would agree to sign up, I needed them to be honest and very clear with me about how many members they had. I repeated that I was looking specifically for women within a 24-35 age range, and in the St. Louis area. They assured me that they had 125-150 women in that category, and better still, that they had about 20 NEW women signing up each month within that age range in St. Louis. They also told me that most of the women in that group did NOT already have children (which I said was important to me). I signed up and paid $5,295 for a "lifetime" membership.

After completing my profile and sitting for my photos and video, I went home and logged onto their site to search their database. The searchable age range closest to what I sought was 18-35. Remember that I was told that there were 125-150 members in the age range I mentioned (24-35). I was shocked to discover that there were only 20-25 members in this range -- and this includes the "inactive" members. When I narrowed my search to ACTIVE members in this range, with no children, the number quickly shrank to 16 -- a far cry from the 150 I had been told. Off by a factor of ten, in fact! Even worse, when I did a search of 18-35 year old women who had signed up in the last 60 days, there were only four. FOUR! (I had been told they averaged 20 new women per month in my age range!) In addition, despite my being told that all members "must" have photos and videos in their profiles, at least one-third of the profiles lacked one, the other, or both.

I called the GE office immediately to ask whether I was missing something or perhaps not using their database correctly. The woman who answered the phone performed the search as well and came up with the same numbers. I asked her for an explanation and she had none, saying I would need to speak with their director, Rhonda. I have spent the last two weeks trying to get an appointment to talk to Rhonda but have had no success. Each time I call I'm told "We don't know if or when she will be in today" or something along those lines. I have asked repeatedly for her to call me back, and so far, no luck. And when I ask the office to call me back when they hear from Rhonda, they never do, even after has supposedly "called in to check on things."


Digging deeper in my online search, I found that there are MANY similar complaints from all over the country about GE's misrepresentations of their member numbers. I have also talked with several of GE's current and past members in St. Louis, all of whom have felt misled and cheated by the company. In fact, I have yet to see a single example of someone who has had a good experience with GE, despite the company's claims! They currently have 22 complaints on file with the Better Business Bureau and a rating of "C".

Now I understand that the contract I signed says "no cancellations or refunds" and all that. What gets me is that they got me to sign the contract by giving me false numbers -- in fact, numbers that were NOT EVEN CLOSE to the actual number of members they have. I am still trying to get in touch with their director to demand my cancellation and refund, but given what I have heard from other people, I'm not optimistic. They certainly seem to be doing everything they can to prevent me from talking with the director.

This whole experience has become an absolute nightmare for me, and I would really like to help prevent others from falling prey to GE's deceptive tactics -- which is why I am submitting this story to you. If I can help with any further information, or if anyone would like to discuss this with me, I would be very happy to provide more details.

My husband and I attempted to set up services with this company. When we were told we owed $113 plus for an old bill.  We have never had services so we questioned the bill.  I asked the date of service and what the amount was for.  I was told this is for a bill back in 1998 and we must pay it or get no cable services.

So I ask can you please provide me a detailed copy of this bill.  I was told it would take 5 business days to research the bill and get a copy.  I wait the time frame and call back a week later.  I was told we could not reach you...funny you have a new order sitting there with current info...the word was we can not find any info on this bill other than it was for services dating 8/3/1998 to 11/16/1998.  I ask what was the service address and what services were rendered. Again I am told we do not know its to old and that is all we know.  

Then I am told I can get all my questions answered by the collection agency that it was assigned too.   Its too old in our system and was sent to a collection agency in 2/2009.  I was given the name of the collection agency CMI 800-377-7724.  I was transferred to speak to them.  I was told that CMI had NOTHING on record and that the claim in question under the old account number I was given was taken back by TWC on 2/2008.   I questioned the girl on the phone and advised her that TWC has told me they sent it to collections on 2/2009.  She told me I was wrong and some one had given me a wrong date.

I have spent hours on the phone dealing with person after person.  One women was rude and just told me to pay the bill. I told her well ok.  I say you owe me $1,000 and you need to pay it.  Would you pay if I refused to provide documentation that you actually have such and bill and owe me money.  She said no!  I said then their you go.  I am not going to blindly pay a bill that I do not know.  Add to that its over 10 yrs old...what about the statute of limitations.  You also have not made any attempt to contact me about this bill.  Her smart aleck response was we would have sent you a bill when this occurred, if you had paid it then you would not have this problem.

So we get now where.  Time Warner is absolutely the worst company I have ever dealt with. I did get a person in collections that agreed with me but was not able to help me as he could not see any records on file.  Another two nice people in Billing that also agreed with me.

All I want is PROOF of the debt...and this ignorant, sorry company is refusing to provide the proof I have asked for.

I am sending a certified letter to TWC requesting the same info..as well as a complaint to my Attorney General's office, All credit reporting agencies and my local BBB.

I received the same as above.  First I was sent text to edit and send back and I would receive $5 for each kb.  I edited $170 worth of text.  They then sent me an email telling me I had to take a 2 month break from editing text because they needed Accounts Receivable people in my area to accept payments on their behalf.

My first payment was FedEx'd to me and I rcv'e it last night.  I decided to do a little research before depositing this personal check for $4870.00 into my checking account.  The check was from a couple in Texas and was drawn on a Wells Fargo bank in TX.  I looked on www.whitepages.com and the name and address on the check was legit.  I then decided to go to the FedEx website and look up the tracking number to see the route this check had taken.  Funny thing is it was "picked up" in Illinois?!?  Was the person whose check this was in Illinois? perhaps on business and sent the check from there?  Or were these checks stolen?  I attempted to call the phone number of the person the check belonged to and it is constantly busy with obviously no call waiting...who doesn't have call waiting these days?  Especially someone who is wealthy enought to write a check for this large an amount for who knows what good or services?!?  And why can't "Dating Services" clients western union the monies to them?  Why have me as a middle man?  What if I western union the monies to Dating Service (minus my commission of course)...and then the people who paid don't get the goods or services they were promised?  Are they going to come after me because they were instructed to mail their payment to me?

Being a single parent I was looking forward to the commission I would be able to make doing this job....however, I do not want to get involved in a scam and was glad I came across this website.  I decided I am NOT going to deposit the check into my account and I will continue to try to get ahold of the people whose check it is or I will just mail it back to them with "VOID" written on it.

Although I have not yet put my finger on exactly what kind of scam this is...if it sounds too good to be true..

By extension this is universally applicable to any young man.....especially where female attention is concerned.
Zulma Gaunt Breakey, residing at 6310 LaCosa Drive, Dallas, TX, was found guilty of issuance of bad checks she issued.

Zulma was ordered to pay legal fees to the Dallas County District Attorney's Bad Checks division, and had to pay the amount of the bad checks, plus banking fees, to the D.A.'s office for compensation to the plaintiff.

It is appropriate that the D.A.'s office requires direct payment to the court, given Zulma's propensity to issue unsigned and bad checks.

In addition to the bad check charges - a criminal offense - Zulma Gaunt Breakey also has civil charges pending for defamation of character, deceptive trade practices and non-performance against a legally binding contract.

Zulma Breakey, a recovering cocaine and alcohol addict, has had her share of self-inflicted drama in her life. Multiple relapses of cocaine abuse have been reported in the Dallas area at local Alcoholics Anonymous groups and a local Dallas retailer. Zulma has also written multiple bad checks to a local Dallas retail establishment.

In addition to the above self-inflicted drama, Zulma chose to marry her most recent husband - Jason Breakey - who has had extensive run-in's with both the criminal and civil court systems. Jason also has been featured in an expose on WFAA regarding one of his dating sites that had charges filed against and in which legal judgements were found in favor of the plaintiff.

Highlights of Jason Breakey's legal career include both criminal and civil charges.

Criminal charges include possession of 4-5 pounds of marijuana, possession of a handgun, resisting arrest, eight years probabation, two subsequent arrests (in 2008) for possession of marijuana, and additional charges filed for unlawful concealment of a handgun and resisting arrest, two charges which he is currently out on bond for, pending court hearings he has delayed five times and which are currently scheduled for August 2009.

His legal career also includes eighteen civil suits in which multiple fraud and non-performance charges have been filed against him and/or one of his fraud dating sites.

Details of the criminal and civil charges referenced above are easily found through a Yahoo or Google search, or through searching the records of the Dallas County court records available online.

At this present time my profile on this website has been unaccessible since the 5th of October 2009.This is the conclusion of a series of events which eventually led me to this website.which i describe below.........

Any past or present subscribers to maritalaffair and it's duplicate sites with exactly the same profiles can attest to the usual pattern of recieving a message almost immediately after registering which happened in my case.

I registered in July 2009 immediately after i had recieved a message from a 'profile' named Collete,she apparently was an extremely busy 20 something who wanted no time wasters. After replying to all of her sparse messsages for nearly a month which occured around every 7-10 days... she then dissappeared,it had occurred to me even then that it happened way too near to the first month's expiry,i had smelt a rat.

But.......
stay away from f**kbook datings 3 day free trial offer The company that handles their billing charged me a one month membership fee without my consent

 I had to go to my bank and file a dispute and get my debit card cut up and re-issued They told me I could opt out of the automatic billing which they told me they would do by filling out a form I filled out the form but then backed out and decided to do it later

 They said i had until the end of the free trial to opt out I browsed the site for about 20 minutes then I got an e-mail saying I was approved for membershipand charged my acct for $45 and change so I went to the bank immediately and filed the dispute which took ten days

 Meanwhile I was getting overdraft notices from my bank everyday Save yourself the trouble and never give any of these websites your credit card information I almost got burnt once within a half hour It'll never happen again!

could an international, nationally advertised website in well know,free, popular, widely circulated London daily newspapers and billboards do such a thing?

I had conceded to what i regarded was a very minor defeat and decided to resume my subscription to this slick but very ingeniously deceptive website in August 2009, a few days later after the first month's expiry,with some expectation that i may chance upon a real profile and get lucky!!!

Ironically,At around this stage i had received an email by a scammer 'profile' from maritalaffair with a link to Ukadultcontact owned by the same parent company which lo and behold was an exact copy of maritalaffair.co.uk with the same profiles including mine less some minor cosmetic differences.

Consequently I had created a male phatom profile on this site,which amazingly recieved messages from 'profiles' identical to those found on maritalaffair.co.uk

In continuation,what followed were either replies or prospective messages,from what started to appear to be a pattern of 2 or 3 females at a time who were very busy,very enthusiastic,nearby but initiating contact with very sparse replies for approximately a month with had a habit of dissappearing around the expiry date with no trace.They never reply to any suggestion of contacting one by email or text message off the website upon providing them with the details.At this stage i really considered that it could be worth continuing just to see if i really was being ripped off!!

At almost 60 pounds later by the end of September and into the first week of October(and still subscribing!!)the penny dropped.I had received a reply from a 'Michelle' who promised to message me with her mobile phone number which could i discreetly text.

The 5th of October arrives and an email arrives in my Inbox which notifies me of two messages arriving at exactly the same time.Upon attempting to enter the site the day after,one's login details unrecognised by the site and by October the 11th are still unrecognised.GUESS WHY??! your's is as good as mind lol..
This company says it's a dating service, but when you find a lady to talk to and want to exchange e-mail addresses or phone numbers they refuse to deliver. If I wanted someone to tell me what I can or can't say I would be in church, not a dating site. I paid these 2companys for 3months and never got to meet a single lady in reality.If that isn't a rip-off then tell me what is a rip-off ? I am on other dating sites and have no problem exchanging info to arrange a meeting with ladies...are they afraid to let people get together ? Or is the whole thing a hoaks ?

Maritalaffair and it's mirror sites is the most ingeniously deceptive adult contacts websites and wont be the last.

PORNZUBE Free membership IS A TOTAL sham!

Fri, October 16, 2009

On Pornzube.com I met and a dated this girl for 16 months. She never had a job. She had 33k in debt. I didn't fall in love with her, i fell in love with who she said she was. Im not a very spiteful person. But one day I entered her name in google and boop another guy wrote about her on this thing, and called her a goldDigger. That right there led me to believe I'm not the first person shes Used like this. And I decided to write also just for some final closure. I am not here to lie, or hate on her. I am here to help other guys that might end up with this girl.

There was a lot of drama in our relationship, and I am a very drama free guy. Lol well everyone was a teenager once.! Im 25 now, we broke up for good just a month ago. Shes been just being herself since the break up, I guess. Since we broke up shes slept with two guys.. now seeing someone else. Everyone she sleeps with almost is from the bar mainly or secondly mySpace. Tina has told me all her deep dark secrets (u know? the secrets she neverrrr told anyone else) if ur looking this up, you will find it all very coincidental that its all happen to you, or you heard the same words.

This Nikolas guy whos also writing about her in the past Tina told me he went to jail for beating her all the time cuz she cheated on him, and she blacked out at his house, tattooed his name on her pelvis, and they ran a 'train' on her. I wish I never did any tats on her. She didnt even deserve it lol. my initials on her wrist, the daylillys on her side. btw those are crooked as fuc* lines cuz she couldnt hold still and had to have my we1ner in her mouth at all times. Storys i could tell OMG lol... exhibitionism, toys.. She has to have the d**k and if its not yours it will be someone elses. She cheated on me with her ex the first two months we dated all the while telling me she loves me as much as she could because she knew christmas was comming up! In fact she did do some kinda of reverse psychology trick on me because i went out and baught her a $1400 ring. (well b4 u+ the sale) :) and somehow she managed to steal like 200 to get me a decent ring. She wanted marriage and kids from the get go.. that ring is the only thing she has ever done for me. oh yea once she lent me $5 for smokes. and the girl smoked up Alllll my weed n never tossed me a penny. I smoked wit her so she stayed away from the alcohol for a bit. She was an alcoholic and blames that for her many lovers. her other reason for the many lovers is 'I thaught thats how you made friends' well honey thats how you make future enemys.. not in most cases but always in yours! She admitted to more than 50 people shes been in the bed with but could only remember maybe 10 names.. This doesnt bother me because im open with my displaying affection under the sheets. Her classic was 'ph Justin Oh Justin uhhh ughh oh yea.. your the only person whos made me c*m, your the only person who can make me wet without touching me, your face and my crotch belong togather... MARRY ME!!' it was fun but NOT worth it. trust me someone with her own porn site is not trustworthy. no joke. Yikes.. I knew it was time to watch out..

Later I find out why shes so emotionally disturbd a lot of it was stuff she couldnt control, and so I felt bad and was always there for her. She would miss her father soo much, he left his family as an alcoholic, the mother of his children was his SISTER. That was an aweful feeling and he left.. For being imbred she is d**n pretty, but thats only in the eye of the beholder. Also ONLY ON THE OUTSIDE.. She is the devil inside, and doesssss soooo good at hiding who she really is. She sucked every penny out of me and I was making over 1400/week so i was well off.. I helped her with her fines, duis, restraining orders.. Yes people she has restraining orders lol.. on another ex steve.. she was deep into his pocket b4 the guy b4 me.. She tends to be in a relationship not much longer then a year. usually within the first year she can either suck you dry, or realize your onto her.

twards the end of the relationship I actually drove her around, made her find a job, and success (whitewater generac) where shes accumulated two stalkers, and gotten three fired.. She gave one guy on her line sitting next to her a hand job. You dont even wanna know how I found that out LOL... I know more people than she could imagine. She didnt meet my friends very often. She knew she cant control her sexual tendancys, and she didnt suck me dry yet. After she got the job, she knew she was getting a lot of nice gifts for her 30th birthday.. because she was all depressed and because anarexic for 3 weeks over it. after she got the gifts she faded away from me. I knew it was over. She gotten everything she ever needed. She cant have kids, cuz of a sist on her ovary, and i already had a lil boy. she wanted a family.. HAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAAHAHAHA Boguss funny it was all a lie i look back and dont even care anymore. I had my mind set i would never marry that girl unless we were still togather after at least 5 yrs. Well she got her job and doesnt need gas money anymore so it ended. She drives to work without a liscense.. she'll be backin jail soon.. tina you need to stop drinking.. AND NOW THE DRUGS WTF ur sister died because of drinking n driving hellooooo.. u drink n drive all the time. Time to grow up hun.

Well its been real. Now Im going out. - Always remember Bros before......-

I called the customer service number provided with the charges 1-888-895-3210 upon reaching the service I found out the charges were for a subscription to either a porn site/magazine. The customer service stated they would not help unless I provided verification that I was the card holder, meaning my card number. Apparently they already know my card number because it's on my bill so how could they have charged this subscription to
my card.

These supposed customer service companies must be part of the scam and it's there job to run interference and data collecting, I've requested IP numbers so an individual can track the culprit down but it appears they have
more privacy rights.
These posts don't surprise me about how bad an attorney Robert Louis Miller is. Now I see why he totally screwed me and my family out of a lot of money for my case that he never even looked at. He handed it off to an assistant who never even spoke to me once. It makes perfect sense now seeing how he spends ALL his time online with his porn models making disgusting pictures of women with enormous breasts! I guess it is more important to perv out on women than to actually work for the people who pay you to defend them.
I'll be going to the Bar association with this. Here's the proof.

Is this ethical practice of an attorney? No wonder he got divorced.
Also noticed how he posts Fake forged testimonials on his website and many other lawyer web pages that pretend he did such a great job, he even forged my name. And I was NOT happy with his "service" or lack thereof.
I found out last week that Epoch took unauthorized money from my Bank of America debit account for a long time, years.

One of the Epoch founders is Rand. He has been at Epoch for over 10 years. Call 1-800-893- 8871 at Epoch and Complain.

Go to "Complain Epoch" on the net and read about other SCAMS that Epoch manages to rip off innocent people, all over the world. Put your own complaint on the bill board.

Find out who Rand at Epoch is.....the real name. Maybe Rand is a first name, or a last name. This will help the authorites.

Send a box of live clams or snails to the address above.
Make sure you send it ground. Maybe wait a day or two.
The arrival of rotton snails when opened, should make the thieves..... puke.

Magic of Unified Tribe preys on woman to use them to get his disgusting sexual thrills off. In his eyes the younger the better. Magic loves to make porn videos with his many narcissistic women. He says he's been in the studio all day working on music, but really he's editing his porn videos. The women go to work all day while Magic stays home. Then these women pay him. CRAZINESS!

Take from my experience, don't waste your time or money!
Christopher Patrick Scott, aka Chris Scott, aka SSG Scott, will soon be aka SFC Scott, aka cheating spouse, aka absent father, aka socially inept, aka computer addict, aka all around moron is out and about and on the prowl again, ladies!!

Please be aware that his typical MO is that of a poor, unloved, never found true happiness, did everything he could to save his marriage to the unloving b***h who he sat by her hospital bed while she under went lifesaving surgery, misses his children like mad but cannot afford to visit them because he has to pay child support for four children from two prior marriages, amazingly athletic man who proudly serves his country in the United States Army. This astounding gentleman rarely drinks, never swears in front of a lady, and loves his children with all his heart. This man of all men can also come up with any and all excuses in less than two seconds flat! He is a serial liar with borderline sociopathic tendencies. Could probably also be labeled as borderline personality disorder and obsessive compulsive tendencies.

Please understand from the start that this man will socially conform himself to whatever he thinks you "want him to be" at that time. Over time his true colors will begin to bleed through and you will see shimmers of what he truly is. The scales somewhat give it away.

If you fall for the trap, peace and luck be with you always. If you willingly go along with the "I loveses you" bullshit and are well aware that he plays the role of only sperm donor when it comes to his children, then you should probably take some personal inventory
and rethink that decision to move across the country with him. Sad, sad, case. One that is only going to end badly and everyone but you will be able to see that.
I was charged a fee of $29.95 that i, thankfully, just noticed on my debit card for ccbill.com. According to my bank's fraud department they belive this bill to be for porn. "Adult Industries" as they put it. and as far as the fraud department could tell it was set up to be a monthly bill. i caught it early and now im trying to get my money back. i have only used the internet one time to order a present for my friend and that is the only way i could think they ccbill.com got my information, as well as a few other online gaming sites. im now filling out affidavits and my bank
will be doing a full investigation into the matter to help me recover the now 250$ that has been taken from my account.
