Web Club International - WCI Total Ripoff Stay Away Phoenix Arizona
We too thought this company was legitimate. We were fooled into buying a site for $100 which we planned on advertising ourselves, since we already had several sites that we were advertising at the time, so we know about how to do it. We got a call from Richard Dean about one month later wanting to sell us 50,000 visitors to our site for $3200.00. We balked at the cost because we knew what a fair price was for pop-unders. He then said he would give us the 50,000 hits for half the price if we agreed to pay the remaining $1600 when we made $6000.00. When we again told him the price was too steep, he misrepresented the hits we would be getting by telling us how "targeted" they would be.
After we agreed to pay the $1600.00, based on the promise of the hits being so targeted, we were very disappointed in the results we received. In the first 6 months, we received only 144 hits to all four affiliates combined. In the last 3 months, after we complained to Kimberly and threatened to contact the Arizona State Attorney General, we have received 1110 hits. That is almost four times as many hits in half the time. We're not accusing anybody, but, it sure seems to us like our hits have been manipulated to show we are finally getting what we paid for. Of course we still have not made any money.
This company promises a legitimate business, but does not deliver and does not answer phone calls or emails. They totally misrepresent themselves and rip off people trying to make an honest living.
