Wednesday, May 20, 2009
Notice how it says there is no fee? Those who respond discover that they are urged to upgrade to a "premier level" at a cost of $800. "Shan," writing on the Responsible Marketing blog, was taken in and charged $878.95 on January 5, 2009. Another writer said he was told that he couldn't be included in the registry because he did not have a credit card. Ha! Buyer Be Scared and don't let your vanity get you scammed!Welcome!
