    Did You Get This Email Too?

    Back on June 21st, I received the email below.

    It was sent to an address that I use only for a specific affiliate program… so I assume that someone from inside the company ripped off the that company’s subscriber list.

    That’s bad enough.

    But worse is the fact that this person is offering a package that apparently includes my home address, telephone number and email address.

    So, I bought the package to see what was included.

    I paid my $67.00 and then… NOTHING.

    I wrote a few emails to the seller, (whose PayPal name is David Lake but his email address is Matt.Wellington@gmail.com) filed a complaint at PayPal, and STILL nothing. Nada… not a word.

    NOW, the site has disappeared.

    Fortunately, because I filed a claim, and the guy hasn’t responded, PayPal will refund my money without question in a few days.

    But the fact that there are others out there who bought this guy’s crap, cheeses me off greatly.

    If you received the email below, and bought the package… get your money back!

    Oh, and by the way.

    I spoke to the owner of the company and when and if the real identity of this person is known, HE WILL BE FIRED.

    Too bad, so sad.

    He’ll get what he deserves for STEALING both from his employer and his ill-gotten ‘customers’.

    Not-so-cheery,
    Ros

    Here’s that email:
