Zip Nada Zilch - ZNZ - zipnadazilch.com - declares themselves in their terms and conditions to be a scammer

by Rudolf Faix 27. July 2015 06:41

Zip Nada ZilchYou can compare the site from Zip Nada Zilch (ZNZ) with a mall where you can enter and find a lot of different shops. If one of the shops is a fraudster is not the mall owner guilty. In the case of ZNZ you can only say that ZNZ did not make any background check about the offers in this case. The question is only if they need to make a background check? In any case such a fraudster in their mall makes the reputation of the mall not better and as ZNZ is offering free of charge but only in exchange against your personal data access to this mall they are in any case partly responsible for that what in the mall happens.

ZNZ is operating only in the 50 U.S. states, Canada and UK. As you have to complete some offers before you can earn money by promoting the services from ZNZ are getting only membership requests from people living in the U.S., Canada and UK are getting accepted. Before you sign up with them you should check if the offers on the sites from ZNZ are interesting and suitable for you, because you have to complete between 1 and 20 offers before you are able to promote the services from ZNZ for earning money. The ofered services are not free of charge and can get in sum expensive for you. Nowhere you can get money for free and nobody can spend more money than he earns if he don't like to run into bankruptcy.

In this case even the method, which is described in the member area of Income Jack does not really help you to get a membership at ZNZ because you have to complete some of their offers. For this is the offer from Income Jack a misleading promotion. Here is the description from Income Jack:

For those of you outside of USA, Canada and UK:

ZipNadaZilch was initially intended for affiliates in the USA, Canada and the UK however, if you live outside these areas you might still be able to promote ZNZ, as long as you are in an area served by PayPal.

While ZNZ does not “guarantee” that all international users will be able to refer others to ZNZ to earn “gifts” (referral commissions), they may allow you to do so.

You will need to Contact Them HERE, and simply tell them what country that you are in and ask for permission to exchange one qualified referral for your own qualification. DO THIS BEFORE YOU CREATE YOUR ZNZ ACCOUNT. You need to be “unreferred” at the time of making this request.

Here is a suggested wording for the request that you could send do them. Please vary slightly to fit yourself and edit “[YOUR COUNTRY]” and “[YOUR NAME]”:

— START COPY —-

Hello.

I am located in [YOUR COUNTRY] but I would like to refer USA, CAN and UK users to your http://bigcash.zipnadazilch.com to complete offers.

I have not created my account yet as I was told that users in my location may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Those that I refer are people that are my email subscribers, all opt-in subscribers who have requested information from me about free online offers or low-cost income opportunities.

Would you please allow me to refer people to you, and provide instructions as to how to proceed?

Thank you so much.

Sincerely,

[YOUR NAME]

 

—- END COPY —-

This would mean that you wouldn’t need to complete the trial offers to qualify… you can’t anyway due to your location.

If ZNZ approves you, you will simply need to refer USA users to earn referral commissions (Or CAN and UK users)

Again, this is not guaranteed. ZNZ has communicated that they do allow this on an individual basis. You do need to contact them first to get “ok” to do so.

If they ask what you will do to promote the offers simply tell them “Personal referrals, via email and personal networking.” There is no point in mentioning IncomeJack because they won’t know what you’re talking about. IncomeJack is simply a system I created to assist you in your personal networking, to save yourself time in explaining and selling. IncomeJack’s process is considered personal networking.

Even if ZNZ agrees with your request you have to complete some of their offers before you are able to promote their service. Actually you would be only in a good shape in this case if you need to register a new domain. In this case you can use their actual offer from Godaddy, which gives you the necessary one point you need for promoting the services from ZNZ. All other actual offers from bigcash.nadazilch.com are more or less only available in Canada, U. S. and UK.

You see the misleading promotion is done from the affiliates of ZNZ with their time-waster videos and not from ZNZ itself. In any case this one which is working with fraudster need not wonder himself that he will get called to be a fraudster too. This fraudster image gets confirmed if you are looking at an example offer from their homepage. It is nothing else than a misleading promotion:

*FEATURED OFFER*
Cinematrix (US, UK)
Watch online

Credit Value:0.10 Credits
Cost:Free!
Credits:Instantly
us uk

If you take a look at the details from this offer then you see that you have to provide a credit card:

Cinematrix (US, UK)


Description: Watch movies on your computer!

Requirements: To receive credit, you must sign up for the trial with a valid credit card. Prepaid/gift cards are NOT allowed.

Note: You must be logged into your account to access/complete offers. You can log into your account from the log-in tab.

This is nothing else than a misleading promotion. An offer is only really free if you don't need to pay something. Trial offers with the deposit of a credit card are not really free because it can happen something to you and you are not able to cancel the offer in time. In this case is ZNZ not better then their affiliates. Here is it even worse because they require for completing the offer a postpaid credit card and they like to play man-in-the-middle during the time you are completing the offer. All the offers found at the website from ZNZ have similar requirements.

My opinion is that everybody is stupid who is using a postpaid credit card on the Internet and he should relocate into a madhouse if he is accepting a man-in-the-middle system during a sign-up process at a website where sensible data are getting transmitted.

The result of their own conditions can get seen at Web Of Trust too. If you take a look at the negative comments about ZNZ at Web Of Trust than you see that others see the risk of identity theft too:

WOT rating from zipnadazilch.com

An Alexa global ranking of 300,000 equals to around 100 - 150 visitors a day for all sites of the domain zipnadazilch.com. Normally you need 1,000 visitors for getting 1 new member.

Alexa ranking of zipnadazilch.com

If we take a look at a Rippoff Report, then we fin a user, which did not understand with whom he made a contract and that ZNZ has been only the promotion agency. What is more interesting is the answer he got and which seems to be from ZNZ (Author: Drew) - the relevant parts are:

To be QUALIFIED to receive money for introducing others to the program, you yourself must participate by getting your "credits." This constitutes taking trial offers yourself and keeping them the alloted amount of time. Which is 80% of the trial period. So let's say that you take a 7 day offer, 7 X .80 = 5.6 days, so you write down on your calendar to do with that offer what you will after 5.6 days but before 7 days, it is not rocket science. OF COURSE the offers encourage you to keep the offer past the end of the trial period, that is WHY they are offereing the trial in the first place.

If you do not cancel the trial before the end of the trial period, you will be charged, that is why it is called a trial period. So... If someone is angry that they were charged, it should not be with ZNZ, they CLEARLY tell you how long the trial period is, they are not trying to fool anyone.

The companies that advertise within ZNZ are seeking real customers, who want to keep their products, but the companies themselves are offering the "trial" so they can't force you to keep it, but understand this...

There is a much greater probablility that someone who actually has a product for a little bit of time, and actually experiences the benefit of the product will WANT to keep it. In reality, you could go out on the internet right now, independent of ZNZ and do one of these trial offers. Let's say a credit report offer of some kind and you could see your credit report pretty much immediately and then you could cancel the offer right away. That is what A LOT of people do, but with ZNZ and to participate with ZNZ, one MUST keep the offer 80% of the time. That is enough time to experience the benefit and make an educated decision as to whether to continue on and become an actual customer.

For the case that the above statement is really a statement from ZNZ then is the fraud starting here. These terms are not written in the FAQ and are not getting found in their Terms and Conditions. Additional is the above statement an instruction how to break the point II/4 of their Terms and Conditions - there is written:

II. OFFERS

  1. ZipNadaZilch does not guarantee that a user will receive credit for any offer. We reserve the right to refuse a user credit for an offer for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, lack of appropriate information or fraudulent information.

  2. A user may only receive credit for completing an offer once on any site. Do not complete an offer twice as this is considered fraud.

  3. Users are responsible for ensuring their browser settings have been set properly in order for the offer to be credited.

  4. A user should only complete an offer they are interested in. Completing an offer only to get your free gift is considered fraud.

  5. ZipNadaZilch is not responsible for delays in reporting offer completion or failure to receive credit.

  6. ZipNadaZilch is not responsible for any unknown or unexpected charges that you receive from one or more of our offers. Read the offers terms and conditions before signing up.

  7. Prepaid cards as well as gift cards are strictly forbidden to be used on any offer promoted at ZipNadaZilch – it is considered fraud to do so.

My opinion is the fraud already shown in the first point of these conditions: "ZipNadaZilch does not guarantee that a user will receive credit for any offer. We reserve the right to refuse a user credit for an offer for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, lack of appropriate information or fraudulent information."

Additional is the rule I/7 "Accounts may be suspended or closed at any time for any reason based on the discretion of the ZipNadaZilch Network." not conform with any Consumer Protection law, because one of the hidden reasons can be that the consumer is earning too much money.

It does not matter if the site from ZNZ is free of charge or not - even personal data having a value. If ZNZ cannot guarantee for something than their offer is nothing else than SCAM, because how they have declared by themselves they are able to reject crediting you for any newly invented reason without inform you before. It does not make any difference how long the company exists. Their own conditions are declaring them as fraudster. If they have conditions to reject crediting you than they have to list them all. We know that scammers are lazy and for this they are not listing the full conditions for making more income by themselves.

In any case are these Terms and Conditions against the Consumer Protection law of the European Union and UK. UK is a member of the European Union. As much as I have seen until now is the U.S. FTC about such rules not very happy too.

At the point II/7 is ZNZ declaring the usage of prepaid credit cards as a fraud. Maybe someone should inform the credit card companies about this statement and maybe they are taking the proper legal actions against ZNZ. In this case ZNZ would be very fast history.

The terms and conditions from ZNZ are in Europe not valid because of the consumer protection law. Their own laziness and business idea makes the Terms and conditions invalid because they like that the user is even responsible for everything and they are by themselves for nothing responsible. They are even too lazy to inform the users about changes in the Terms and conditions. This gets shown in the remaining Terms and Conditions:

RESPONSIBILITY
In no event will ZipNadaZilch, LLC. be liable for any incidental, consequential, or indirect damages (including, but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, business interruption, loss of programs or information, and the like) arising out of the use of or inability to use this service, or any information, or transactions provided on this service or downloaded from this service, even if ZipNadaZilch, LLC. or its authorized representatives have been advised of the possibility of such damages, or (b) any claim attributable to errors, omissions, or other inaccuracies in this service and/or information downloaded through this service.

INDEMNIFICATION
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless ZipNadaZilch, LLC., its employees, agents, licensors, suppliers and any third party information providers to this Website from and against all losses, expenses, damages and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from any violation of this Agreement or any activity related to your Internet access account (including negligent or wrongful conduct) by you or any other person accessing this Website using your Internet access account.

TERMINATION OF USE
If at any time you wish to not participate on this site, simply discontinue use of your account.

TERMS & CONDITIONS MODIFICATIONS
ZipNadaZilch reserves the right to change its Terms & Conditions at any time. We also reserve the right to change point values of rewards or offers at any time for any reason. Use of the site after such modifications acknowledges and binds a user to the updated agreement.

Changes in the Terms and Conditions have to get announced at least one month before they are getting valid according the consumer protection law in Europe. Hidden changes are making the complete Terms and Conditions invalid!

Not one consumer can get prosecuted if his account is getting hacked by criminals. In such a case the company can get prosecuted for not taking care of their own security and the data of their members. That ZNZ does not delete accounts on request gets shown at "TERMINATION OF USE". Their own behavior is in this case very negligently.

They are oftering in UK their service and even don't know the consumer rights from UK and the European Union. The law cannot get excluded by defining Terms and Conditions. As there are so many rules against the law including the product liability are getting all rules of their terms and conditions replaced by the standard law system. This is the result of their laziness.

For all the above reasons and to protect themselves from their "happy" customers they need to hide their identity even at the domain registration:

Fraud & Scam

BitGold Inc. - very suspicious - will they burst like a bubble?

by Rudolf Faix 24. July 2015 15:52

First of all BitGold is an official registered company. Only their own marketing, their own presentation on the Internet and the canvassing of their members makes this company very suspicious. Especially the misleading promises by aquiring new members found in the social networks are more destroying the image of a stock traded company than giving them a good reputation.

BitGold tries to be a copy from Paypal with the additional possibility to have a stock of gold. Gold has been from around 600 BC until the First World War the main currency. With other words BitGold tries to secure their members with a stock of gold, which can get used as a currency for payments by using the actual buy and sell prices.

For growing faster by getting more members they try to give you a commission for each new member which you get into the system. Together with their own system of different promotions, commission payments and the greediness and incapability to read of their members leads to misleading promotions by giving false promises. This fail shows that Joshua Crumb and Roy Sebag have a lot to learn about marketing, promotion and how to get and keep a good reputation.

Such a misleading promotion gets found on Facebook:

BitGold is the new and way better BitCoin check it out for yourself you get over $8 to join FREE!! and over $8 each referral that joins free watch the video below and then get your free money by joining http://BitGold.com/r/PHtH8C

Here is the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZknYm6itS_I

see you all at http://BitGold.com/r/PHtH8C

True is like it is stated in the Golden Heart referral program:

Send this unique address to your friends via email, text message, Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn. When a friend signs up using your unique web address they receive 0.025 g ($0.87) grams of Gold and you receive 0.025 g ($0.87) grams of Gold instantly!*

* The Golden Heart(TM) referral program bonus may vary in each region and is subject to change without notice.

The above statement makes a company already unserious. It is like a lottery if you get something or not if you promote their service. As nowhere is written which countries are supported and how much you get for a promotion in each country is it nothing else than a teasing of their own members. They even have all option in this case to cheat. The phrase "The Golden Heart(TM) referral program bonus may vary in each region" looks for me like racism and is for me and in my view nothing else than a scam. As we know are scammers lazy, this company is even too greedy or too lazy for developing a system which is valid for the whole world. They are even too lazy to inform their members by email about some changes in the rules and have written "... and is subject to change without notice". That is for me already a reason for not making business with them. In Europe are such phrases useless and are invalid in front of the law court. A company can even get fined for such rules. Any changes in conditions have to get announced in an acceptable timeframe - mostly one month - before they are getting valid.

Three years ago Joshua Crumb has been a senior Global Metals Strategist at Goldman Sachs in London. All specialists are a more or less chaotic. I think that is the reason why we find the same chaos from their Golden Heart(TM) referral program very well documented in their company structure. That is looking for me more like a haphazard mess instead of a well-planned action:

BitGold has overtaken the GoldMoney platform from the billionaire Eric Sprott. With GoldMoney they bought 150,000 customers and more than 1.5 billion dollars in assets. These must now getting successfully integrated into one platform. At BusinessWire we can read the next change from BitGold Inc.: "The first step will be a name change of BitGold Inc. to GoldMoney Inc., subject to regulatory approval.". With this action they like to use the traditional name and the good reputation from GoldMoney Inc. We will see how long it will take until the reputation from GoldMoney will get destroyed too.

The web-based platform, which got created under the leadership of Joshua Crumb and Roy Sebag, makes the impression like she is still under development - especially if you are taking a look at it in German language. There you'll find a very bad translation of the content with a mix up of English messages and content. Even Google translate makes a better translation of the content.

BitGold bad translation

Especially the preselection of the language in the user section shows us that the site got cheap programmed in Eastern Europe, India or Russia. The possibility to have the site after log-in in English or German language is completely missing:

BitGold offered languages

The next failure on the website gives you the same impression that the Canadian address from BitGold Inc. is nothing else than only a post forwarding service. If you are following the link on the site Missing Golden Heart™ bonus (Last Updated: Jul 21, 2015 09:48AM EDT) at point 6

6. Your friend resides in a country where BitGold is currently not available. Click here to view our list of supported countries.

you'll get the next surprise:

BitGold support center

The above facts and the fact that I even did not get any answer from the customer service gives me the impression that their customers and members are not important - especially if they seem to be from a low wage country. That shows only the limited horizon in thinking from the owners and directors of Bitgold Inc. They seem not to understand that people from Europe and USA are enjoying their retirement time in Asian countries. These kinds of people are normally not really the poor ones.

My experience is that every company, which has been growing too fast, blurted like a bubble. The question is only how their customer and members are getting their gold in the case of a crash and how long it will take? It is much easier to speculate with the money from others as with your own.

Fraud & Scam | Suspicious Sites

Time-Waster: uento.com - Nicholas Thompson - Apogaeis Technologies - apogaeis.com

by Rudolf Faix 15. July 2015 04:49

Uentouento.com is nothing else than a big time-waster. I have installed their software on June 22. You need to collect points. For some software you install on the phone you'll get 3 points. For some other kind of software you'll get 5 points if you install it and run it once. Another kind of software you'll need to install it, run it and keep it at least 72 hours on the phone. For this kind of software you'll get 8 points.

The problem is that there is not enough software available that you can earn some money because 250 points are only equal to $2.50. Additional is there a problem that the recognition of the software for which you'll get 8 points has a lot of failures and you don't get the points for the reason that the software got updated in the meantime or some other failures. I could collect only 235 points during 3 weeks and I have been looking a few times a day for getting new software offered. Additional I reached an user level of 14. An user level of 20 is necessary to get your affiliate code and that you are able to promote their system.

After an update yesterday I could install only one program and got afterwards the message "maximum installs exceded". After a reboot of the phone I got the message that I have changed the country and for this reason I'm now blocked for 5 days. It seems that the uento programmer are so stupid and don't know that airplanes are available which can bring you in a little time to another country. You can be sure that I did not change any country settings on my smartphone.

An email to Nicholas Thompson - the domain owner - remained unanswered. Another email is provided but not working. Nicholas Thompson seems to be a private person which seems to be a script kiddie and seems to dream about getting rich fast.

if you write an email to info@uento.com (email address provided at the Google Playstore) you'll get the following error:

Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

     info@uento.com

Technical details of permanent failure:
Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the server for the recipient domain uento.com

by mail.waypedia.com

. [104.237.130.50].

The error that the other server returned was:
550 5.1.1 <info@uento.com>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table

With other words all provided information from the "company" have the same quality like their program!

If you are an masochist or you like to tease yourself than uento is the right program for you.

As the earning possibilities are only very little is the result of the percentage which you can earn from others nearly zero. For this reason and their worse and cheap programming is the system nothing else than scam.

The scam gets confirmed as at the Google Playstore is written: "offered by Apogaeis Technologies". A Google Search results the following address: Apogaeis Technologies, A-301, 2nd Floor, Stpi Block, Kssidc Block 3,, Electronic City Phase-1, Electronic City Bengaluru, Karnataka 560100, +91 88672 64169, http://www.apogaeis.com/.

At http://www.apogaeis.com/ you'll find the very impressing web site (screen shot below):

Homepage in maintenance mode

You see that everything is built up with as little effort as possible and with a lot of different address information for confusing the user. A company which is working this way is not trustworthy. You can see the chaotic kind of their work in every part - the website, the program, the idea behind the app. 

Not one serious company disallows search engines indexing their sites. Only criminals are doing this. The Wayback Machine gives the message "Page cannot be crawled or displayed due to robots.txt." With other words the content of the page is since the domain got  created (2 years ago) the same. Scammer are very lazy!

As everytime is the promotion looks and sounds much more better than the product:

You want to make money with phone? 
FREE & TESTED 
You need:
- email address
- android phone
- paypal account
it's no joke !!!
only serious people who are content with little in the beginning and in time come to more !!!

ONLY ANDROID
1. go your browser phone to -->> www.uento.com and download the app UENTO free
2.singup: - name
- email
- password
- refferal code: Egslo
3. in e-mail with you register you receive an e-mail from waypedia in which is a code consisting of numbers and letters for account validation
copy code-->go to uento--> menu-->myprofile-->press verify email with code
4.download free app to get points
5.payment in paypal

negative:

  • you need a level of 20 until you get an referral code for promoting the app
  • only a few apps available
  • you get apps listed, which you had already installed
  • you need 250 points to get $ 2.50 paid to your paypal account
  • You need to check the site many times a day to get new apps for installing
  • You should have a virus scanner at your device - in one case an app tried to install a trojan at my test device - Photo Lock Screen
  • you get apps listed, which are not available for your region - an example is Guvera Music

 

July 14, 2015: I'm locked for the reason that I should have changed my country! At the moment I'm on userlevel 14 and have 235.11 points. 250 points have the value of $2.50!!!

Suspicious Sites

Phishing: Survey & News Sites hosted at the Ukraine

by Rudolf Faix 2. July 2015 06:11

After thinking a long time about the purpose of the sites fifty-news.com, multitrendo.com, tempoquiz.com. trastnews.com, vacantsurvey.com, wheresurvey.com, whosurvey.com and the other sites hosted there, I got their purpose. They are only available for phishing the passwords of your payment provider. Especially if you expect a payment and you get a faked email from your payment provider for an account verification you'll will not wait a long time and make this account verification.

Take a look at the "Paypal" email - she is in German language (my account has been made in Austria) - the translation of the important parts gets described afterwards:

Paypal Phishing

Why this email is a phishing email:

  • Paypal will never use the email address access@access.com
  • The message "... der Zeit Ihrer letzen Anmeldung,Ihr PayPal-Konto ist vorübergehend blockiert" - English: "... since you logged off the last time your PayPal-account is temporary blocked" is known from PayPal. With this you are getting invited to follow the link provided at "Klicken Sie bitte Jetzt Zugriff wiederherstellen" (English: "Click Restore the Access Now"). This link and the button leads to http://kolbe.bz/logins/ - not really to PayPal.
  • The same link http://kolbe.bz/logins/ get found at the end of the message where is nothing else written than "Please don't answer to this email we are not reading this email. If you have questions then login to your account and click on contact".

kolbe.bz is an hacked Word Press site - you can see the Word Press logo if you are using http://kolbe.bz/login instead http://kolbe.bz/logins/. If you are using http://kolbe.bz/logins/ then you see a copy of the PayPal page:

Paypal phishing site

kolbe.bz redirects the traffic to serveusers.com. The domain serveusers.com belongs to the hosting provider Network OperationsZZZ ChangeIP located in Miami, USA.

The website gets found at the IP:

 
IP Address Country Region City ISP
 
187.108.192.56 Brazil  Sao Paulo Sao Paulo Snh Servicos De Internet Ltda.

 

The email got sent from the following IP:

 
IP Address Country Region City ISP
 
67.225.220.93 United States  Michigan Lansing Liquid Web Inc.

 

At the moment are the following domains at the same servers available - you should avoid this sites:

  • actutrend.com
  • deepopros.com
  • direxnews.com
  • domnovost.com
  • driftofnews.com

Fraud & Scam

Time-Waster: multitrendo.com - trastnews.com is a copy of multitrendo.com

by Rudolf Faix 1. July 2015 14:49

Update July 1, 2015: This site is only a time-waster. Be happy that you wasted only time and not money by participating at this sites hosted in the Ukraine for the case you signed up already. If you did not sign-up then use your time for something better.

The reason is described in the article Phishing: Survey & News Sites hosted at the Ukraine.

MultiTrendomultitrendo.com is the older version of trastnews.com. The only difference is that you get only $5 for each news you read. multitrendo.com uses the same privacy protection service like tempoquiz.com, whosurvey.com, vacantsurvey.com, trastnews.comfifty-news.com and wheresurvey.com. multitrendo.com is hosted like the other sites in the Ukraine:

IP Address Country Region City ISP
 
46.28.65.182 Ukraine  Kharkivs'ka Oblast' Kharkiv Itl Company

 

As multitrendo.com is already registered more than two years we can find some results at google about them. At Rippoff Report we can find a complaint Review about Multi Trendo:

Multi Trendo Multitrendo Multi Trendo is a ficticious company, not registered in public records. Say they were started 2008 in Brookland. BROOKLAND New York

Multi Trendo recently started placing ads in Craiglslist.org asking people to do news article clicks for pay per article read.

No business contact information was supplied: address other than a claim of Brookland, NYC.

Say they were established 2008. No such company name or variation of name appears in business public records in New York State, New York City or Brookland, NY. This is a fictitious company whose web site whois data is hidden and whose web server is located in the Ukraine - which raised suspicions.

Their signup asks or PayPal account number which PayPal stongly advises never giving out. The field is not long enough for standard email addresses used in allowing push PayPal payments.

The likely scam is that you enter your PayPal email address, or account number in the payment set up while using the exact same or similar password during their registration. That way they gain full access to you PayPal (or other payment processing company) account. Then they can take over your payment account.

Similar reports can get found at:

Summary: Be happy that you wasted only time and not money by participating at this sites hosted in the Ukraine for the case you signed up already. If you did not sign-up then use your time for something better.
