They offer a CD for 79 cents to learn how to make money at home, or something like that. The only thing is that you are automatically signed up to join a site that takes $79.00 a month out of your account. The first I knew of the $79.00/month was when it had been taken from my account. It's been a while, so the prices may have changed.

When you call to recover your money, they are the absolute best at giving you the run-around. I probably never would have recovered my money had it not been for intervention from my bank.

This group uses other names, and all are scams. There are pages of complaints about them online. ]]> Fraudulent Website Alerts moneymagnet http://www.chargebackforum.com/fraudulent-website-alerts/scam-google-treasure-chest-not-part-google-7473.html http://www.chargebackforum.com/fraudulent-website-alerts/wholesaledeals-co-uk-internet-fraud-read-what-people-saying-7454.html Fri, 03 Sep 2010 20:48:38 GMT Hello. I have been a victim of Internet fraud I paid a company called WholesaleDeals.co.uk to have my company listed and they refused anyway that's fine. what's not fine is that since paying the money by my bank card to this company I have been charged £80.00 for three months in a role. So in total I have been scammed over £300 !! I had to do a charge back with my credit card company to recover the funds owed. And worst still this company has been making false reports about my company on the Internet to try and get me back for doing a charge back. Not only I have lost money from my bank card and I am losing customers from wholesaledeals.co.uk fake reports.

This company has also been writing fake reports on all there competitor web sites since they got banned from dropshipforum.co.uk . My question is that this company has not only done this to me but also many other people on the Internet. How can we get this company shut down ?

My advice is to anyone who reads this is to contact your bank and tell them you have been scammed and try and recover the money owed. If you have paid by paypal.com contact paypal.com and show them the bad reports on google.com

Here is some information I have found on the Internet:

WholesaleDeals.co.uk have been banned from many forums on the internet for the way they handle their customers in a very aggressive manner, and when their customers make complaints on a forum, they decide to threaten forum owners with legalities. Although some forums know their standing, based on proof of content.

Wholesaledeals.co.uk also now own their own forum, which they are actively self-generating postings, pretending to be forum members, so they can use their admin account to then place derogatory and libellous comments about dropshippers, in an ill-attempt to drive traffic towards their own esources website, or to their affiliate links to worldwide brands. They are also amending postings on their forum from months ago, which look like they have been created by a forum member, to then add derogatory content. Nearly all of their postings have been self generated. Shamefull.

Wholesaledeals.co.uk may have started out with a good, decent business, but now they have turned into the gutter with their antics, and have poisensed their own reputation. So much so, [b]that they have also started going around other review websites blatantly placing derogatory content against dropshippers. This is not the behaviour your would expect from a 'professional' company.

The spam, the payments taken (as many of their customers have stated) from you when you didn't think you were on a subscription. Banning your IP, and then trying to upsell you to a different package. These are all issues their customers have stated around various forums on the internet.

Suppliers, dropshippers, and wholesalers WANT to be found, and at end of the day, they are not going to limit themselves to inclusion in a 'directory' just so a company can sell their details.

The other problem is, with verification. esources claim to verify all their suppliers, to stop their customers from falling foul of a rogue trader/supplier. This is not true, there are suppliers who have claimed that they were never verified, which then begs the question, are any verified?!

Any suppliers who fall out with esources, esources then claim the dispute is because the supplier fell out with them because they were excluded from their directory. When in reality, they never asked to be in the directory in the first place, and simply found out that esources do NOT verify all of their suppliers. It is just a trick to get you to believe you are buying a quality list.

[b]We would advise that you definitely avoid these people. You do not have to pay for such information. Sure, they get customers because some people are lazy and will not search, but there is not a supplier in their directory, that you cannot find yourself, either on this forum, or by quickly using Google. ]]> Fraudulent Website Alerts Beenscammed http://www.chargebackforum.com/fraudulent-website-alerts/wholesaledeals-co-uk-internet-fraud-read-what-people-saying-7454.html
