“Scambook is there for the public, now its hard to believe...”

Kijiji B.
1/9/15

Scambook is there for the public, now its hard to believe somone randomly will post a negative remark, if there was a bit of truth to the matter. The public is responsible to believe it, or not. If I posted somthing negative about McDonalds, its up to the consumer to further look into it or not. The site is made for, to eliminate SCUMS, & SCAMMMERS. For example, alot of scams go on kijiji, but its up to the buyer to take that risk!

“Robinhood Robs Steals and lies while there defective system is broken”

Evan D.
12/16/21

Robinhoods system was broken on 4/15. They stole 795 of my doge coins and wont credit me the amount im owed. The system was broken and wont fill or let me cancel market orders for over 10 minutes which is illegal. If an order doesnt fill you can cancel it. I sent them a screen shot of the error saying I can cancel orders and that the fill time was over 10 mins which i cancelled numerous times before the fill. They wont provide credit for thr broken defective system and wrongful actions. This company is so shady and steals peoples money on orders sends statements and all the numbers are lies false and incorrect. I need to be credited the money Im owed or I will have to file a lawsuit against this shady company do illegal business!

This is an extortionist website. They will remove bad/fake posts about your company IF you pay them a monthly fee. SCAM. Reported them to the attorney generals office.

LENDMARK IS THE DEVIL! DO NOT GET A LOAN FROM THEM! THEY CHARGE $38 A DAY INTEREST.

I got a medical loan from a place called Lendmark several years ago..., around $2,500.
Two weeks later they put my car on as collateral and now it's being called a car loan.
I called today to ask if I pay it in full will it just be the actual loan or will they still try to take on interest? They replied that the loan is now at over $4,000, almost $5000, which is far more than the amount that I borrowed. He asked if I'd be coming in today. I told him it would be several days. He told me he needs to know because it goes up by $39 per day. He basically told me that if I pay tomorrow I will be paying MORE than what I owe today.
No wonder I cannot get ahead. Never ever get a loan from Landmark. I'm almost better off declaring bankruptcy since I'd like to own a home someday.
I borrowed around $2,500 for a medical expense. I pay $227 a month and I now over $4,000 almost 3 years later.

This site is for false spam accusations. Information is totally uncontrolled. Also remove the picture of Matyas Zaborszky's ID card ASAP, or you are going to face with serious legal consequences.

They allow and post fake reviews about companies. They only way to remove them is to PAY them. I agree extortionists! Contact the New York states attorney general TODAY! We did.

He worked on all 3 computers. He has them all running great. He is very polite and knowledgeable. In addition, he helped with some other issues (Ipod questions, etc) He is one of the best techs I worked with. It was a pleasure. I am very pleased with his work and he has a wonderful and refreshing personality.
Great Job!

I also lost about $175,000 to a IQ Options broker and 2 fake binary option website as well but I am sharing my experience here so as to enlighten and educate everyone that is losing money or has lost money to a scam binary options, dating scams and fake ICOs.

However, I have been able to recover all the money I lost to the scammers with the help of a recovery professional and I am pleased to inform you that there is hope for everyone that has lost money to scam.
You can reach out to them by searching for Miguel Aruso (cybercrime Investigator) on Quora.

Scam Book posts erroneous, inaccurate and malicious information without verifying the authenticity of the information or source or source for providing the information. They will post anything from anybody and offer their assistance to arbitrate the resolution of the matter naturally for a fee. Beware their rating is 2.0 out of 5.0. How anybody can put any creditability in their comments posted or their service is beyond the level of comprehension.

This site does not seem to check the facts and will post anything that someone says. If you leave a comment to defend yourself they might just remove it.

www.scambook.com is a FAKE / SCAM website that makes money by charging to have FAKE reviews removed from their site. It's disgusting and shameful they charge people to have fake reviews to be removed from their site! I have sent them several proves showing the claims were FAKE but they would only assist if I was to pay them money! SCAMBOOK.com is run by CROOKS and scammers ripping people off left, right and centre! Hopefully one day scambook.com will get legally banned and site brought down by officials and have your scam, money making business destroyed for good!

I own a business. Scambook.com solicited a negative review of my business. They then added 2 more that were fake, not real customers. They emailed me and attempted to extort thousands of dollars from me to take the negative information about my business down. I called and spoke with Kevin and Zak who are dishonest crooks. They said "these reviews aren't coming down! Ever!" So I've talked to the FBI local office in LA, where scambook is based. If you have been victimized, please do the same.

Scambook.com is owned by some very shady attorneys. On this so called complaint website, anyone with a personal ax to grind can accuse you of criminal acts, make scandalous and libelous statements about you and your business, post personal information like: home phone numbers, addresses, family names, etc. Scambook.com then contacts the victim of the accusations and requests money from them for the removal of the posts. There have been news stories written about this highly unethical complaint site. The consumer is being used to aid an extortion ring. There is plenty of evidence on the internet about this site, please check it out and decide for yourself.

Scambook is the real Scam! URGE ALL to read this sites info www.scambookscum.com & report Scambook to the Various LINKS provided in the site: i. E. California State Attorney General, the LAPD Sheriff's Dept "Internet Fraud / Cyber Crimes" division.
EVERYONE who has Negative Posts about your Company should INVEST 5 mins a day and shoot off 2 emails or File 1 complaint a day ALSO contact "GoDaddy" who Hosts Scambook & is in violation of terms of service w/ GoDaddy. Etc
PEOPLE there's Power in Numbers & IF enough Companies, Individuals Protest we'll have satisfaction!
Scambook.com was a site created by: Deformation Character / Slander ATTORNEYS to generate LEADS for their own self serving intentions. ( do your research) They ALSO sell these "leads" to other Law firms! Their intention is not to "help" right wrongs or assist customers, Scambook sole intention is "Internet Extortion" leveraging / extorting MONEY from companies ($500 a month) who had negative comments, which they hosted / posted on Scambook.com by ANONYMOUS INDIVIDUALS posting negative comments w/o any validation what so ever!
They were run out of Chicago... then hind behind the slack laws in Cali.
If one digs deep enough w/ the search of Scambook, one will find fake LLC's from Cali to Delaware... Scambook is the Scam:

My review of the newly launched scam reporting site scambook.com

My viewpoint is that, yes, scambook can be a useful tool to provide a venting service to those that feel the need, just don't form unrealistic expectations of the services that scambook markets publicly as a miracle remedy that will get you Justice! And return your money, or put an end to any alleged scammers evil deeds. They offer you information pertaining to class action suits against the offending merchants as they enter the top "trending" category and will be told that you are part of that lawsuit even without your being consulted or give consent to join. It is simply advertising doubletalk that is refuted by disclaimers found it the Terms of Use document, "Scambook is not a law firm or attorney referral service. Instead, Scambook is like a community or clearinghouse of complaints" Make yourself aware of scambook's limitations and continue to pursue other means to resolve your disputes with any merchant. Some of those remedies are to make effective complaints to people who can help you more directly, accountably, and in a timely manner. Keep in mind that most ecommerce scams are a smash and grab operation of short duration and are usually packed up and moved on to greener pastures before the courts even begin to sit to hear all the pretrial Motions. Any lawsuit takes much time and the outcome is less than certain. This is the time that scammers depend on to cover their tracks and make a getaway like any common thief. The class action lawsuit should only be considered as one of the "Hail Mary" remedies or a last ditch course of action when all else fails, not as a first and only attempt to resolve your dispute with any merchant.

1/ Call your credit card company, or bank immediately. Tell them what happened and how. Be prepared to be met with resistance while doing so, and keep good records and original proof documents. You will be asked to contact the merchant to try to resolve your issues in that manner but as you are likely aware, you will be stone walled by customer service representatives if you are able to contact anyone at all. It is a necessary step to take to put that merchant and credit card company or bank on notice that you want a refund and you need to do it formally by email, or other means that you can prove. All fraudulent merchants can and will provide falsified documents, records and contracts to your bank or credit card company. Be prepared with your own proof of what really happened to combat any of these false statements made to the bank or cc. The distinct advantage to this method is that it may force cc companies to flag that deceptive merchant's ability to process further fraudulent transactions, perhaps stemming the flow out of consumer's accounts into offshore shell corporations.

2/ File a complaint with the BBB. They have no powers to force a resolution but can get results in a few cases. Sometimes the complaints on file at the BBB can be used as evidence of a company's alleged wrong doing. The Better Business Bureau is a PRIVATE nonprofit BUSINESS, not a government agency funded by the tax payer. As with any private business, they have a product or service to provide to us, the consumer, and they raise funds to operate the business from merchants that pay to become members, plain and simple. Essentially, it means that they are in the marketing business and are paid for their service by the very business community they review and report on. You can take that information at face value and for what it's worth.

3/ File a complaint with your local consumer protection agency, in the US usually found provided from your State Attorneys General Office or in Canada at your Provincial Services Bureau. This is my Five Stars recommended method to get your money back that can actually help put the deceptive merchant squarely in the sights of an elected official or government paid attorney. That agency is not a paper tiger and has the power to investigate and to bring criminal charges against scam artists. As a bonus, these agencies can act on a single complaint directly instead of sitting around doing head counts of huddled masses of scammed citizens. I have seen these people in action and I am impressed with the speed and the positive results. This process is to deal with the problem as it should be, a consumer rights issue, and how a CONSUMER has been wronged in the marketplace by a MERCHANT.

4/ File a complaint on the Federal level to add to the growing list of others, similarly affected, to help stir them into action to investigate. DON'T expect that any Federal agency will act promptly because they move at the speed of government. DON'T expect them to come charging over the hill to save you, they only investigate this type of fraudulent activity when there are sufficient numbers of people making the same types of complaint about the same merchant. I do not know how many scammed people are required to stir even an investigation, but the whole thing takes much time even years and seldom returns your lost money or put a stop to the fraud in any kind of reasonable time frame if ever.

5/ Go on venting and posting your experiences on sites just like scambook and this one. Just stick to the facts and leave the venom and slanderous remarks out. You may just feel better from the idea of helping others to avoid that same scam and it does cost those unethical businesses lots more to combat the bad reviews with positive ones that they have to hire from marketing firms and paid reviewers. Maybe this pressure will put them into such a financial squeeze that they will need to reconsider the purchase of their second Lambo.

6/ Use what you have learned from being scammed to guide you to make better decisions with your online use of your credit. There is no such thing as a free lunch. There are no businessmen online that will give away products or services for you to try without asking for your payment information. ANY offer that askes you to provide your cc numbers WILL charge you immediately and ALWAYS in amounts far larger than what you thought you agreed to. Any offers of 'FREE TRIAL" or "INCREDIBLE SAVINGS" are deceptive marketing tools that ALWAYS have a catch that will end up costing you money, and some of your sanity!
