OFFICIAL: Select-traffic.com= RIP OFF

Ok, I purchased 10,000 vistors from Select-traffic.com via paypal ($50.00). I then begin the campaign as soon as they sent me my username and password. I was recieveing about 50 hits a day, then it went up to 100 then back down. So I paused the campaign at 620 hits. The outcome:
(I think 620 hits was to early to really convert but look)
425 RAW Hits, and barely any uniques.
TOTAL bullshit traffic.

I then emailed him and asked to change the url to a different site, he then said he changed it and It remained the same url for the past week. I then went back to the thread that made me want to buy this traffic and saw other people complaining too. The user know as 'acsgroup' posted that he has used them and he also posted his stats. (now keep in mind my campaign is paused) So the thread is still going on with the complaining customers.

Acsgroup then claims that he isn't part of select-traffic.com, and that in the future he would like to resell for them. Now as we got to the end of the thread you can now see that he is definitly affilated with the company(so hes a fucking lier). So this morning I get up, check the wegcash message board and see that one of the customers accounts were suspended. So I thought I should check mine(which the campaign is paused on mine from last week) I then login and see that they are sending me hits that I do not want. My campaign was RESUMED by the Select-traffic.com without telling me anything. They sent a total of 57 hits from the time they resumed (Thank god they send the traffic so slow, otherwise I would have been extremely pissed off)

So a word to the wise stay away from:
The guy that goes by 'ACSGROUP'
Selec-traffic.com

Here is the wegcash thread: http://forums.wegcash.com/viewforum.php?f=4 (the first two threads)

I contacted paypal for a refund, im waiting for a reply.

Thanks,
ThePornPusher

Edit:
They also fucked up my type of ad campaign. It supposed to be 10,000 adult vistors, well in my members area it says 'AD: USA/CANADA TARGETED'.

Yeah, well the owner disguised himself as someone else and posted his stats and how great the traffic was, otherwise I wouldn't have purchased traffic.

Like I said in the other thread about them:

Traffic buyers nowadays have to be extra cautious when purchasing from traffic brokers.

There seems to be a new one of these sites every week. They usually disappear as fast as they appear, but not before taking webmasters for untold amounts of money.

Your best bet, before investing any money in buying traffic from anywhere, is to do a search on the boards and see what other people have to say about their experiences with them.

This is the email i recieved from paypal today, un fucking believable that they can let this guy get away after paypal responding to another user that they are doing a investigation due to several users complaining..

Dear Nicholas,

PayPal has concluded our investigation of the following Buyer Complaint:

Case ID: PP-027-407-549
Transaction Date: Nov. 22, 2003
Transaction Amount: -$49.95 USD
Seller's Email: [email protected]
Seller's Name: Kevin Ayrey

Unfortunately, PayPal was not able to resolve this dispute because the item
purchased was virtual or intangible. As a result, we have has not taken
any action against either account at this time. However, this complaint has
been noted in the seller's record for future reference.

Thank you for your cooperation with our investigation.

Thank you,

Protection Services Department


Please do not reply to this e-mail. Mail sent to this address will not be
received and therefore, not answered. For assistance, log in to your PayPal
account and click the "Help" link in the footer of any page. If your

pink Service Center link.



STAY AWAY FROM:
ifreeonlinecash.com
select-traffic.com
www.acsgroupinc.info

This guy is a asshole. What would you do now in this position?

-Nick

I dont think paypal ever resolves that easily or fairly unless its for an eBay item. Luckily my only dispute was over an ebay item and I had shipping receipts etc which I scanned in and emailed them.

Plus its an adult purchase. But this sucks big time, too many fake traffic brokers.

First of all, complain to his registrar for having fake registration info. Second, complain to his host. Get everyone from the WEGForums to do the same. I'll back you up (I'm ngnd on the forum) but I didn't buy from them.
