Why not inform Paypal of George's activity? They do not tolerate anything that resembles MLM, legal or not. The address to inform is aup@Paypal.com.
Re: Something Strange on the Other Site / Scam.com Plummeting Traffic / George Dranichak
There might not be more than one level here though. Granted, I didn't give George $2.99 to read what ever it is that passes for a comp plan here but it could be as simple as you buying an ebook telling you to setup a free blogspot account, copy and paste the template (misspellings and grammar errors included) and fill your paypal account link in place of the one you clicked on to get the ebook. No reason for there to be more than one level of compensation which isn't to say this wouldn't violate some other paypal TOS.

Re: Get Paid To Post On Message Boards
Do they give you a listing of message boards who would enjoy your participation?
Or just a listing of message boards, blogs, etc?

Re: Get Paid To Post On Message Boards
This is a top notch site.
They list sites, yes.
I hired them for the new categories at the bottom of the site and they are cheap.
I seriously recommend them.
I like the private message system and rating system.
Deposit $20 and you'll be surprised.
Sign up under my link and I'll let you know if the referral system works too.
Sometimes there's holes in referral link, ya know what I mean.

Re: Get Paid To Post On Message Boards
From a message board members point of view this is a way to destroy a message board from being a forum they would want to be involved in.
Part of a forums appeal is to have members who post regularly, post discussion or debate that has content that stirs up intrigue.
Regular members of a message board are the back bone of the forum. Without critical thinking on content the forum becomes shallow and uninteresting.
People making money posting on forums and blogs can be in a hurry and make posts that lead to no discussion or debate. Also a group of regular members who become internet acquaintance's help make a forum a success.
This forum once had a group of members who really enjoyed debating each other and they considered themselves quite intelligent and able to give critical thought to their discussions and debate. In fact some of them tried to drive off any member who didn't fill the shoes of a member they wanted on this chat forum. Maybe those days are over, private little forum clubs on a public forum?
Anyway, for me this new way of stimulating message board traffic, is a negative for regular members who enjoy taking part in or reading opinions from well informed members on the topics in each forum of the message board.
Four years ago you could spend time just reading this message board and read very intelligent and stimulating opinions and today this just isn't taking place on message boards around the Internet.
I think this pay to post on message boards is going to cause even more problems for the member who wants in depth opinions on topics. Also for members who would like to make internet acquaintance's that stimulate a discussion or debate enough to want to continue this day after day.
To be honest, even back in the day when this forum had it's own little group of educated posters, it still could get very boring. The same debate and the same topics year after year and with mostly the same people. Difficult to keep it interesting.

Re: Get Paid To Post On Message Boards
I agree with and respect your opinion.
89% of the traffic is new daily so i am just trying to stimulate new members.
I seriously agree with every point but sometimes you need a little kick in the butt to get things rolling again.
I can't let the 2000+spammer registrations a day win, I simply can't.
There will be new categories, new topics. We will evolve and survive.
Bills have to be paid and just keeping the site online with all the daily hackers is an expensive chore (that I am willing to absorb).

I think Tulip nailed it, who wants to read a bunch of blather from random paid posters?
I am sure it is not just me, but I use the internet to do a lot of research, and the last thing I want to see in a thread about gutters is a post for male enhancement. I want to see handyandy54 with 11,000 posts and a bunch of helper stickers. I have to think people who go to scam sites have a similar concern that they are getting good information.
When an ad pops up on a webpage, many may think that it is approved by the owner. Saying on one hand something is a scam, and then having an ad promoting something very similar creates some strange bedfellows.

George is going bananas editing members' posts again. He is sending that site right down the commode and I suspect his new fan, XxMotleyCrueXx, is yet another incarnation of George himself. He has boatloads of IDs. Calling his longtime member a homo sure shows how he just exudes incredible charm, doesn't it?
Re: Something Strange on the Other Site / Scam.com Plummeting Traffic / George Dranichak
What an absolute horseshit excuse for editing people's posts. He certainly never had any issue with his spammers doing what he is using for an excuse.
Re: Something Strange on the Other Site / Scam.com Plummeting Traffic / George Dranichak
Looks like all he has done to slow the swarm of spammers to that site is delete the blog section, without warning. There were some good posts there with information on scams and now all that information is gone.
Currently there are "Posts: 689,505, Members: 362,518", weren't there over 800,000 posts at one time? What happened to nearly 200,000 posts? With the current stats, that is almost 2 whole posts per member, not a good sign of an active site, is it?

Re: Something Strange on the Other Site / Scam.com Plummeting Traffic / George Dranichak
I suspect Vlad has been a very naughty boy. And very, very stupid.
First of all he thought it would be a good idea to hire posters to boost traffic.
Second, he started a thread to let everyone know that he was employing people to post.
Third, he didn't realise that if you hire posters and have Adwords, chances are some of the paid posters might also be inclined to click on the ads. This, of course, is a no no!
My guess is someone complained to google, they checked the IP's of the paid posters against the IP's of some of the ad clickers and found a correlation, google leaned on rackco and scam.com is terminated....
of course, this is usually what happens to scammers when they get found out!!!
I could be wrong, as I often am, but in this case I don't think so.

Re: Something Strange on the Other Site / Scam.com Plummeting Traffic / George Dranichak
Vlad / George / Zachary / oodles of other names crazy dude was probably also masquerading as those odd very enthusiastic new members as well. His desperation to increase the forum's traffic is quite palpable. I remember moderating that forum when it had 350,000 unique visitors a month compared to the 79,000 or so it boasts now. Of course now his traffic is mostly spammers and spambots that he openly invites and their posts that he links on his Facebook page.
Nomaxim was run off as were all the had working, honest mods. That evil sow Sojustask is still around as she knows all George's secrets and he hasn't the spheres to send her packing. George has the Cadillac of hosting companies. I spoke at length to the owner when I was suing Tim Darnell for the slam site using my name. They were the hosts for that site as well. So, George's problems are absolutely not due to the hosting. I don't how they have tolerated his antics this long.

Google AdWords, Amazon Create Space - SCAM.COM is scamming you!
GoogleAdwords is being scammed by scam.com. The man who is behind the scam.com website is owner George Lamonte, aka George Dranichak. He is a pornography site operator from Canada and he makes MONEY BY RIPPING PEOPLE OFF!!! You think you are going to his website to find out who is scamming AND the whole time he is scamming you! He makes $$$$ off of visitors. He gets paid by exploiting a legitimate Adwords offer from Google. Does Google want to be affiliated with scam.com? I don’t think so!
How does the scam work? He takes legitimate companies or individuals and targets them because they are successful and well known. If you recognize a name you are more likely to click on it. He seeks out disgruntled employees and MLM quitters who have some negative bent on why they failed. He then takes what they have to say and presents it as fact (AFTER ADDING MORE LIES TO ITt). He also has staff that posts lies daily to keep them high in the ranking. The controversy draws people in and they unwittingly line the pockets of scam.com So every time you visit his website the porno operator gets paid for your visit.
He is a scammer of all scammers and he posts fabricated, deceitful, libelous posts which are designed to destroy companies and the lives of individuals. He scams you into reading his lies and bullshit so you will go to his website and he can make money.
Contact Google Adwords and and complain to them about being represented by the website. Let them know they are being deceived and they are supporting a website that is not legitimate, is operated by a man who is a porn site owner, escort service owner and scammer.
Go to the following websites to find out who is behind destroying people’s lives and determine for yourself how this man cares nothing about destroying reputations to extort a buck. He is also affiliated with a man and woman who allegedly create child pornography. Really?
George Lamont and his phone number are listed on three websites as President of the company. PornProfit.com is one of them. So every time his scam.com website gets a “hit” you help the pornographer profit. BAN THE WEBSITE.

Re: Steve Smith (Excel) Has a New Scam Called Nexcel
Quote:

Steve Smith just keeps trying new pyramid schemes hoping one of them will work. The newest scheme which will debut on August 1, 2012 is called Nexcel or Nexcel Financial...creative right?
This was the old iJango model which has morphed into something entirely different. A year and a half ago (after iJango went down in flames) he decided to change the name to Nexcel and offer the same iJango toolbar for discounts (supposedly) from the internet but he added a Nexcel prepaid Master Card debit card. This card originally was a free card and you made 70% off of the charges to the customer for usage fees. So if the average monthly fees were $10. you would make $7. Not a lot of money! You could join for $299. and the usual $19.95 per month. Of course you would make your bonuses on the suckers you signed up. Then he changed the compensation plan to pay you $10. for every cardmember you signed up but still not a lot of money for the work. AND he had to hide the fact that it was a MLM because of bank approval. He has been promoting the card program for over a year and the bank had not approved the program. Yet he has collected money from people every month with essentially NO PROGRAM and no compensation paid out. Now the card is totally different and I will explain why.
After his Excel fame and the $200+ million dollars he received when Excel was sold he made the mistake of purchasing a little West Texas town called Lajitas. No one ever said he was a great businessman...he just knows how to take people's money, not spend it wisely. Anyway, he filed for bankruptcy and lost all of his assets, homes, cars, ranches, planes, etc. (with the exception of things he could hide). So his credit is trashed and the IRS has a judgment against him for over $50 million dollars. Not a good credit risk.
The reason I am giving you background information is because although he had an idea of a debit card MLM scam he could not get a bank to approve him. He tried hiding behind others as a front to the bank but it didn't work. So now he is launching a new program with a payroll debit card with PowerCheque Network. Doing a search on PowerCheque turned up some negative reviews on them also. This program requires that you sign up employers or organizations where they pay a fee (from $250. to $16,000. depending on the size of the business) for the ability to pay their employees on a debit card.
Sound like a good idea? You can go call on businesses and try to set them up??? Right. It only costs the representative a mere $349. a year for this privilege and you can make up to $2. a card. Of course in a pyramid scheme that's not where you make your money anyway...it's in signing up other suckers. So the bonuses are lucrative but how can you qualify for them if you have to sign up businesses for their payroll. Who the hell will sign up thinking they can sign businesses up??? I guess that's why they get their $349. up front each year because if they charged a monthly fee the representatives would drop out like flies. Oh yes, and they have added a position of "affiliate trainer" for a mere $199. a year. You don't even have to be a representative of Nexcel to sign up for that!!! How many trainees do you think they will have?
Steve Smith has milked his Excel fame for far too long. He has had numerous pyramid schemes including Ultimate Match, Ultimate Travel, and iJango which has morphed into Nexcel. It's time for Steve Smith to retire or get a real job and stop taking advantage of unsuspecting people. Do something legal for a change. |
I realized recently that my partner was posting lies and slandering Steve Smith as well as others in an attempt to prepare to possibly extort money from them. He is dumb enough that he didn't realize that the computer kept the passwords to the account. I tried calling scam.com and sending them a letter to remove the LIES about Mr. Smith as well as others after explaining the situation and they have not responded. This site preys on lies and I can see why they leave trash like this up. They destroy people with known names and don't care.
