WTF?!? Another swoopo wannabe here to steal your money? Guys there are not auctions, they are lotto tickets where they website controls the lottery. Stay away. This is a special auction where the auction never ends and everyone pays out except the winner... I call that a LOTTERY SCAM!

OMFG! Another swoopo scam and rip off. This is not an auction. Auctionstorm is a way for the site to sell you a lotto ticket and the more money you spend the more likely you are going to win. But that is it... a gambling site. Just know what you are buying. You are probably just as likely to win playing a scratch off at 7-11

Catchbids.com is another penny auction site that has really cheap items for sale like burger king gift cards. That I have not seen in a penny auction site or any auction site for that matter. Catchbids doesn't stray from the typical formula of luring in new consumers with cheap dollar amounts, but they are more unusual in that they have such cheap items for sale. A cheapbid auction on this site seems to have significantly lower priced items. Still it is gambling IMO and I think these sites should all be regulated by the government.

Ahh yes... another penny auction site. One of the literally millions of them out there. If you have just found out about this site, just a warning... penny auction sites are not yet regulated by the FTC, but since they are basically close to a gambling site rather than an auction site you can bet the FTC will eventually get around to it.
A pretty funny article describing how penny auctions are evil business plans here

I will say this penny auction has more style than the 1000s of other ones out there. Still not sure how to really trust these things when nobody audits them. They would actually do much better if there was some goverment run agency to verify these things just like gambling sites or lotteries are state regulated. Still if you are going to spend your money on these things make sure you read this first

Penny auctions are advertising on google all over the place and someone really should start regulating these gambling type sites. Who is to say who is really winning these items? I think states regulate sweepstakes and lotteries but these go unchecked. Read this review before participating.

This is like ebay but with no morals or rules or regulations. They allow clearly selling illegal products such as replicas (they even allow sellers to advertise as replicas). I saw someone advertising "fake channel"... the problem with a site that is operating illegally is that if they are going to allow fake replicas to be sold, how good will their customer service really be to you the customer when you don't get your item shipped to you? They are operating outside the law as it stands so don't expect them to really care about the customer

While penny auctions are pretty much all gambling this particular site has got on the band wagon of giving your bids back if you BUY the product after you lose on it. Of course you are not getting the product for a good price, you are getting it for probably full MSRP and it is probably a product you wouldn't buy to begin with except for 1/1000th of the price.

Seriously? Is groupon so hard up for new deals that they want to try to encourage people to go on dates and make a baby so they can win some money? Do they think we are all lame sheep following the cheapest deal? Do yourself a favor, read the reviews here on sitejabber about groupon before you even go on this groupon date idea.

If you really believe this site was featured on Oprah and endorsed by her as the site has oprah logos on there then you deserve to lose your money to them. This is a scam plain and simple. Anyone guarenteeing you will get laid is a load of garbage. Stay away from this site and go to adultfriendfinder.com or do a search here on sitejabber for lifestylelounge.com and read those reviews.

Just a quick note to tell all of my fellow sitejabber friends that LOTR MMO is now FREE for everyone to play. They are adopting the strategy of giving free memberships to everyone and then those who want to upgrade can pay the extra few dollars a month for the goodies. Good concept and I expect other games to follow suit soon. They clearly need a facebook version of this game to really mainstream.

This is a great site if you are looking to throw away your money on a russian bride scam that will never happen. The dream is finding a hot chick to marry you and who barely speaks english. What more could any guy want. Yet all of these are scams really. Read this

Great name for a diet website but they have very bad products. I was looking for various supplements that have been medically proven to cause weight loss and I see they are pushing acai as a weight loss supplment

http://store.ediets.com/Pure-Inventions-Fruit-Extract-Pomegranate-p/*******.htm

What a scam! Acai has no known weight loss benefits. Oprah and Dr. Oz even went out publicly to say their beliefs on the whole acai weight loss scam

Auction sites like this where you think you can win some expensive item are just a way for these website owners to get rich. They are everyone on the net and it makes me sick

Penny auctions are more like lotteries and slot machines than an auction. You won't really win anythere here more than you would if you went to a casino. Read about them from time magazine
http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,*******,00.html

And even a blog here on sitejabber
