Thread: Banners Broker HYIP ponzi scam

just come out with the p word!!!

Talking about doubling!!

Oooooo Coca-Cola and Toyota mentioned again.....

We need everyone to contact that radio station.

They have just said it must be legit otherwise they wouldn't have a mastercard.

I have emailed them a couple of times to mention the ongoing subscriptions & traffic packs

Caller now accusing presenter of tying him in knots.

This guys account will have to be banned.

Mastercard, investment, doubling your money, you don't have to do any work. It goes on and on. Breaking every single rule.

oh boy. the promoters got the lions share of the programme.

Cannot seem to listen but have just tweeted Joe a link to this thread!

RTÉ Radio Player: Radio Just Got Easier

Again I would impress upon people to contact rte radio Joe Duffy show. Its all very well posting here. But if you actually want to make a difference this action may help. This radio programme has a huge listenership.

I've sent him a message via the radio application.

I phoned them at start of programme, they said they might call me back to speak. They never did.

Its over now. presenter obviously was skeptical, but I think the bb crowd had too much airtime, without rebuff.

I'll try to type the interesting stuff here. I think I missed the first hour but I would imagine that there will be a replay available from their website. This guy Joe Duffy is asking some very good questions. "Paul" the Irish lead is on the line trying to defend BB and not doing such a spectacular job.

He cornered Paul on the guy Terry who wants his money back and sounds like Terry will get a refund. Had not been for this broadcast I'm sure Terry would have been screwed.

Lots of questions about how much money you need to put into BB. Paul says only $25, most of the callers are saying they are told to put a minimum of $250 - $500.

Nobody so far can figure out how BB works (big surprise). Joe cited a few of the biggest publishing websites in Ireland and says BB ads don't show up on any of them.

Paul saying that everyone who wanted a refund after changing their mind, got a full refund except for a small handling fee.

Paul is attempting to explain to Joe that anyone in BB can instantly become both an advertiser and a publisher. Joe doesn't seem too impressed with that.

Next guy ("Jack") bought $2,000 worth of BB and says he made $75,000 in six months. He cited ads from Coca-Cola and Toyota as being primary companies that advertise on his campaign. Now he's explaining the sales credit for getting referrals. He is now citing MasterCard as proving BB is legitimate. Blind network, don't care about how that works. Guarantee of advertising and traffic, and doubling of money within a few weeks. Now he's trying to impress Joe with worldwide advertising revenue (which he got wrong). Joe is asking how this can be possible for everyone to make money. Jack says there is a 200% profit on advertising in this system and BB (unlike other companies) decided to share the profit with its members. Back to the blind network now...has to be blind so nobody will "interfere" with it. Jack actually said "it has to be hidden". Now Paul is saying there is no guarantee of doubling your money. Oh, now we are up to "a few hundred thousand publishers". Paul said there are at least 100 people working in the new larger head office in Canada.

Joe asking Paul why BB is not working with the major publishing websites in Ireland. Didn't get an answer.

Paul says he absolutely knows the websites that BB advertises on, but he can't disclose due to the privacy agreement he has signed with BB.

Brian now. Digital media expert, 10 years in field. Says he would go straight to Google. Says he understands how BB works. "media exchange" system. All websites have more impressions than they can hope to sell...so the put their unsold inventory into the market and ad networks like BB come in and buy millions of impressions very cheaply then "repackage" to resell to advertisers. Says he would not put money into BB, would use Google instead. Wants to know what CPM BB charges for advertising. Paul says he doesn't know, you'd have to go to the head office in Canada -- he is only 'support' for Ireland. Now says it is $1 USD, per thousand impressions.

Eddie now. Google adwords user. Explaining the BB wholesale/resell model again... Wants to know what value affiliates add to this business -- why does BB need affiliates? Answering his own question -- says they need the affiliates for funding/financing. But is now saying that given the level of returns ($2,000 gets you $75,000) then BB could easily have gotten venture funding and keep the profits themselves. Says the cost of financing (i.e. paying affiliates) makes no sense. Asking Paul to answer - why does BB need affiliates, given this tremendous business model.

Paul says BB started with a brand new concept, with just two people, two years ago. Now says they just launched a social network with 100,000 people -- how could they have done that without membership? Not really answering the question. Joe pressing him on why all the meetings at hotels and trying to get people into the program. Now back to the guy getting a refund.

End of program.

Hopefully some people who have heard this might do some real due diligence before joining this scam.

...and 172 people reading this topic right now.

How is everyone enjoying their ponzi these days? Feel free to comment in this thread...we treat people fairly here unlike most of the other sites that discuss BB.

Wow, message sent with my story and they just phoned me! May want me to come on air tomorrow as they are revisiting the topic because they had so many calls!

Quite a few people lurking!

Jason

Paul needs to be careful he could lose his account for "showing Banners Broker in a bad light"

And to sound like a broken record...

Please contact that radio station. For those who will read this later do the same. That story can run and run as long as they think there is an audience for it. And in this case the presenter is not involved in it. He will give a fair rep for the discussion. Sometimes these stories can run for days.
