I am getting sick and tired of liers, cheaters, scammers, non payers, and all the other dishonest crap that people try to pull, during transactions.
It is really getting frustrating, because it seems lately that their has been an increase in this kind of activity.

Here is the latest one:
Scammer:
EKMClothing

The Thread:
http://www.namepros.com/advertising-and-seo-services/419493-real-quality-traffic-your-site-just.html

His Offer:
BEST SEO Package!! Just $9 Get PR1!! - I will submit, stumble, review, and more for just $9!
Cost is: $9.00/ url, no limit to how many you'd like done.

* This package includes:
* Submission to over 350 search engines
* Submission to over 250 directories
* Stumbles to your sites
* Reviews to your sites
* Word of mouth advertising

What happened:
I ordered his seo service for one of my sites, on 04-26-2008 at 01:58 AM (time stamp from the pm I sent him after payment).
Twenty seven minutes later EKMClothing replyed back saying the service was complete. The time stamp on his pm was 04-26-2008 at 02:25 AM.
I may be blonde, and sometimes a little slow, but this is too farfetched.
In 27 minutes this guy supposedly:
Verified my paypal payment
Submitted to over 350 search engines
Submitted to over 250 directories
Performed Stumbles to my site
Reviewed my site
Gave word of mouth advertising to my site???

27 minutes - how is this possible?
He even stated earlier in his sales thread that most of the submissions were not automatic, but manual. Wow!

Results:
NO increase in traffic
No new backlinks in major search engines
Nothing to prove he even did the work.

I have asked EKMClothing to give me a list of where he submitted my site and what exactly he has done for me.
So far there has been NO RESPONSE to me from EKMClothing....

I know it was only $9 but its the point >:(

Here is another thread that may give you some insight on how this character operates:

The views expressed on this page by users and staff are their own, not those of NamePros.
stumbles would definitely send traffic to your site, and that many manual submissions etc cannot be done in 27 minutes (but backlinks won't show up yet in search engines).

you can check stumbles to your site yourself, and if you provided him with an email address to use for the submissions you should be getting tons of directory emails confirming the submissions. as for reviewing your site and word-of-mouth advertising, you'll have to somehow get evidence of that from him.

good luck to both of you!

Sorry to hear that Ray but.....if it sounds too good to be true...it is.....i am not trying to lecture but don't fall for the cheap advertising....hence, better....ask Nick, he will give you the right advance :)

9 bucks...well not a lot...but multiply that....i am with you, it is getting worse and worse....:(

Cheers,

Frank

maybe there should be some sort of "trust" system developed into the advertising section.....

Thanks for your input Shockie. I am not getting any emails from directory submissions. He never even asked me for my email address. He knows he has been caught red-handed and he is ignoring my pm's and posts. and I know he has been on Namepros today. I am not the only one that he has did this too.

I agree with texasgamer. I took a $9 gamble that EKMClothing's traffic service had some legitimacy and lost.

If you notice the positive feedback EKMClothing received regarding this service, it occurred within 1-2 days after the transaction which is entirely too little time to index and realize traffic from the supposed submittal to 350 search engines, 250 directories, stumbles, and reviews.

And this is from Namepros member "Wisconsin" :

I also received a pm, saying "Service is complete" , after only few minutes of making the paypal payment.
On 04/26/08, I sent him a pm, requesting a detail list of all the places he had submitted my site to (based on his ad/post)...but has not received a reply, yet!
Hopefully, he’ll be able to explain!
