When scammers cry SCAM!

The continuing chronicles of the P&P Gang aka Paul and Penny Westhead, the notorious and underhanded owners of http://www.surfwize.com/ and http://www.cashitz.net/, reveal that the two have no shame 'tall when it comes to dealing with other traffic site/paid to surf programs! This from an honest site owner in which Ms Pen has been a member of:

Hello everybody,

This is a sad day as it marks the end of a relationship I had with some people I used to call my friends. Most of you are or have been members of Cashitz and Surfwize, and like me, most of you are still waiting to be paid by both of these sites. Despite the poor treatment I have received from both of these sites over the last 3 months, I have resisted the urge to publicly denigrate either site.

A few of you already know that Paul deleted my account and kept all my earnings because of a comment I made in his forum. Those of you that are aware of this are also aware that I was denied any right of reply, and every further post I put in his forum was deleted. I was prepared to accept this without making the issue too public, as I had made a mistake, and instead of being 3 months overdue for payment it was only 6 weeks. Still not acceptable for a site that promotes itself as having a 100% payout record. I kept a copy of the response he deleted and you can see it at http://autosurfinfo.com/openletter.html

As if that wasn't sad enough I have been waiting since 1st of May for cashout at Surfwize. The last payout I received was during the month of May for April earnings. I am owed for May, June and July, as are most of you.

As you are also aware Penny is a member of dadndaves autosurf. Due to the fact that Paul and Penny were the original hosts of dadndaves autosurf, (that's another story in itself, and you are all aware of the problems I had just after launch) Penny had many hours start on the rest of the field when it came to promoting dadndaves, and as a result won the referral contest for May, which I paid her for. She had no earnings to cashout for May as she had compounded them, but I would have paid her, as I paid everyone else who was due.

She then came 3rd in June, which I asked her to deduct from my June cashout. Of course the June cashout never came. I also paid her on the3rd of July for her June earnings, after she promised me the cashout button at Surfwize would be open on the 7th of July for all members. Almost a month later the cashout button is still not open, the site is down, and she tells me she cannot pay because " I can not get into the control area to pay members out at the moment", but the front page of her site clearly states 'and payouts are continuing whilst we are down'. Which is true??

Obviously, by the number of emails I have been receiving from other disgruntled members the possibility of being paid is becoming less and less by the day. I did not think it was fair on me, or other Surfwize members, to have to wait 3 months to be paid, so I put her dadndaves earnings 'on hold' until I at least got some sort of response from her as to when payouts would begin.

I then received an email from Penny demanding that I pay her what I owe her today. Demanding?? What do you think would happen if you or I demanded to be paid from Cashitz or Surfwize. ** All I asked for was some answers and I got my account deleted, imagine what would have happened if I demanded to be paid. Perhaps those of you who are still waiting should send her an email now and demand to be paid. You'll probably get the same response from her as she got from me, an angry email.

I suggested we delete each others accounts and move on, as despite her problem with arithmetic, the amount she owes me is similar to the amount I owe her. The response I got to that was even stronger than a 'demand'. Threats already!! 'ok, I will treat you as a SCAM, and believe me I can shout.', You have 24 hours to pay me or I will close you down, if you don't think I can watch and learn. and 'Pay me today or face the consequences'

Well I would like to put the record straight. Dadndaves is not a scam, dadndaves pays it's members when payments are due, dadndaves does have a business plan that will guarantee your payouts now and well into the future, unlike some others that stumble along for 12 months, then find out they can't do it properly and have to hire a business consultant.

dadndaves does not, and will not ask it's members to pay a $10 fee in order to keep operating, only to go offline a few days later, dadndaves does not claim to have a 100% payout record, and then renegue on that claim, dadndaves has a 99.9999% payout record, the only person who hasn't been paid is Penny Westhead. For the record I have deleted Penny's account under the terms on my front page which state You won't get your account deleted unless you try to defraud me. Penny has defrauded me and thousands of her members by continually promising payouts which never come, then by charging a $10 fee to be able to make payments, and still not paying.

I will let the readers decide who the scam is. Full transcripts of the aforementioned emails can be seen at http://autosurfinfo.com/scam.html. This is a sad day, and I didn't want to have to go public in this way, but if anyone wants to declare that dadndaves is a scam then I have to take the necessary steps to protect the integrity of the program.

Thank you all for listening
Happy surfing
David

** so, I can tell you EXACTLY what happens when you ask for payout: you get told to take a flying leap that's what!! We have her emails to prove it. She has done the exact same thing to countless members asking for payment and then complaining when none were/are forthcoming.

Surfwise is gone with the Schwinn

In the not surprised here department, http://www.surfwize.com/ has apparently left the building along with member earnings last time I checked 0246 eastern usa time 08-02-05. http://www.cashitz.net/ still remains online with this rather sad note from Paul:

[quote]Hi to all Cashitz Members, We are still having some problems with the new hardware on to our new server. Therefore we have decided to take the site off line whilst this problem is sorted out. All members will be credited for the downtime and payouts are continuing whilst we are down. We should be back up and running within the next few days. thanks Admin Please have patience as there is nothing we can do until the server problems are corrected and this is out of our hands. [/quote]

Right. That has been up there for running on 2 weeks now. So, anyone out there been paid by these people yet?

Inductees have no shame

Still MIA and still not paying the members, http://www.cashitz.net and http://www.surfwize.com remain down due to server issues according to the owners Paul and Penny Westhead. Interestingly, the couple appear to own their server which probably accounts for the reason they are still actually on line and not showing 404 site not found errors.

The couple owes thousands of dollars to their members. Research through the search engines and posts made by members show the couple was having problems paying their members as early as January 2005.

If you are owed money from either of these programs, this is the whois and contact information:

If you are owed money and not being paid, here are a couple of places to start with filing complaints against the sites and the owners:

http://www.ifccfbi.gov/index.asp
http://www.homebasedbusinessreviews.com/reportascam.html https://www.ripoffreport.com/

Any time you fall victim of a scam or are defrauded you should always file complaints and reports. A quick search on internet fraud, scam or fraud will produce many sites and organizations dedicated to fighting crime on the internet.

Keep your reports factual and provide copies of your proof of fraud whenever requested. DO NOT FILE FALSE scam reports just because you are unhappy with a program owner. The penalties for doing so can be quite severe.
If you were in fact ripped-off, defrauded or a victim of a scam, definitely file complaints and reports. Everyone needs to do their part in stopping the scammers and keeping programs on and off the Net legitimate and honest.

The One Buck No Bounce Wonder

(Publishers Note: 7-23-05 Debra chronicled how her THE VALIDATOR service began. In this article she discusses the creation of the Just4UU commercial email service, the first POP3 and SMTP No Bounce $1 email.)

Soon after we developed THE VALIDATOR, we encountered a BIG problem. People were joining Safe list Submitter very quickly because we had The Validator but they were joining with Free Email accounts like Yahoo, MSN, Zwallet, Gmail and every Free email account you can think of they joined with!

Now here was the problem: Free email accounts like the one’s mentioned do not have POP access so NO validation software could gain access!

So here we provided an auto join submitter to over 1000 safe lists plus THE VALIDATOR to process all the validation links BUT because our members had joined with Free email accounts without POP access - NO validation software could gain access so NO validations were happening! How do you tell your members they have to go out and pay for extortionately priced email accounts, on top of Submitter Membership fees?!

Once again we had to sit down and decide what to do. We knew the big Email companies provided Pop access but their prices, in our opinion were expensive. So we decided to provide our own Email accounts and just4uu.com was born.

It is both POP3 and SMTP based, so the validation and box cleaning software work with it.
It has lots of features like importing your email from other boxes and a one-click empty your inbox service.

The main challenge was how to make it bounce free! Mail servers are notorious for shutting down during heavy usage and this is one of the major causes of what we call bounced email. Email cannot be delivered so it is bounced or returned to the server which sent the email. Sometimes THAT server is down so the email is then bounced back and forth creating all sorts of havoc.

When a mail bounces, the safe list reacts by putting the offending member’s account on vacation-hold to prevent any further email being sent by that member. If mail bounced because the members box was full, that is one thing.
But lots of times it will bounce because the SERVER was full, or overwhelmed or off line for some reason.

So, we came up with a solution: all the incoming mail is actually STORED on our servers until delivered to the boxes. So, unless your box is full (or no longer exists), mail is delivered to you even if the actual box server is down for some reason.

Just4uu.com has now grown very large on the internet today and with our partnership with Xtream.net.org we are stronger than ever and can offer great competition to the large companies at much more reasonable rates.

We are now at the stage where we offer safe list users a great deal and provide $1.00, POP, SMTP Email accounts with a generous box size large enough to support any submitter advertising. Customers are happy with the service which has been dubbed the One Buck No Bounce Wonder!


One Buck No BounceWonder is now accepted by 99% of safe lists on the internet, unlike the Free email accounts we have mentioned.
You cannot blame safe list owners for refusing Free email accounts as these services are not email marketing friendly. Even the not free services like AOL are not accepted by safe lists. Free email is of great use in personal emailing but it is no good for the serious advertiser. Most free email services actively discourage email marketing - which no one can blame them for! They are in the personal email business not the commercial email marketing biz and all that goes along with it.

We are and our One Buck No Bounce Wonder service is specifically designed for email marketing: it won't return your email, won't reject your safe list emails, is compatible with all submitterand safe list software and has lots of nice user features making it, in my opinion, the perfect partner in your email marketing endeavors.

The Validator: A success story

(Publishers Note: Email marketing remains wildly popular. From consumer products to opportunities, marketers use email to advertise their goods and services. While bulk email is often employed, safe lists are probably the venues most used by on line marketers. This ususally means having one or more safe list submitters and then broadcasting to hundreds, sometimes thousands of lists. All those lists must first be validated. This article is from the creator of an extremely useful service called THE VALIDATOR.)

In 1998 I started using Safe lists, just a handful to begin with, logging in daily and sending ads by hand. As you can imagine I did not receive much of a response to my ads! So as we all do, I took the plunge and joined a big safe list submitter, there weren't many of them around at the time and there was no such thing as automated validations!.

Hundreds of validation links came flowing into my email account along with ads from admin owners that validated my account by hand. For 4 days I was getting buried in emails hiding my validation links.

It became that bad in the end I gave up my submitter membership after 5 days, which had just cost me $24.95, swearing never to use a submitter again!
After a couple of days of calming down I started to wonder what could be used to save all the hassles of validating these links and approached a very good friend of mine that was extremely good at writing programs and scripts. He laughed when I told him what I had gone through and looking back so did I.

We sat down and came up with the first The Validator but it had its problems although it downloaded validation links it also downloaded all the other links we receive in emails as well! So my first attempt brought in 22,000 links the program dutifully clicked through them all but took 38 hours and 20 minutes precisely! The other problem we had was it also downloaded virus links, so you can imagine the chaos that caused!

Finally The Validator was created. It has been improved a lot since then, generally our time for processing validations is around about 2 hours. It searches out any virus' found in emails and will NOT download them, this email is then deleted from the web server and validations carry on.

A lot of people have asked "why should I use The Validator when my submitter has an onboard validation service".
My answer to them is simple ask your submitter admin if they also process validations for contact email addresses, most safelist hosts now require this, their answer will be NO. The onboard validation script can only validate one email account per set of safe lists. You can read more about this on our site Impressions-hosting.com

Whilst The Validator is processing your validation links we watch over everyone of them so if there was a large number of safe lists that were down on their servers we can inform you of this and re-send The Validator at another time, something else that an onboard validation script cannot do!
Although The Validator is an industrial strength program it is operated by human beings that you can talk to if needs be.

Fastads and Postads were the first submitters to start offering THE VALIDATOR (independent from the on board validator). Since then, many other submitters now use the service including XtreamNet Marketing Center.

Once The Validator was running smoothly we decided to offer everyone on the internet the chance to join a modern day Safe list Submitter with The Validator included so ALL safe lists could be validated. This way no matter what submitter you belong to or how many, you can always get your validations done.

Our service is now used by people from all over the world! It is hard to believe that our service is almost 7 years old now and just as valuable now, if not more so, than before. Safe list marketing remains very popular, and I can't imagine doing that kind of marketing without The Validator taking care of those thousands of validation emails everyone has to deal with at least once when doing email marketing.

2Daily crashes and burns

2Daily has stopped paying members, stopped answering emails and has closed its doors permanently, and in otherwise short order left the buiding after only a brief (like couple months?) sojourn on the Net, possibly breaking an all time record in the flash, splash, crash and burn on-line business model, and, no doubt taking those who did actually invest money with them (in high hopes of the promised high returns) firmly to the cleaners

When it first appeared, many were excited and an equally number puzzled. The burning question was how could it possibly support the claims of large payouts for miniscule amount of surfing? How? A traffic exchanges' life blood is in the surf. That is what makes it all WORK. You simply cannot attract advertisers without active member surf stats. Plus, you simply cannot just give money away along with free memberships combined with small payout levels. All that eventually comes back to haunt you. Quickly in 2Daily's case.

Of course, 2Daily was on the fast-track to burn out from the onset: promising a. free money b. free memberships c. low (like non-existent surf requirements) and (most fatal of all) d. quick payouts within the first 30-days for all members - including free. They apparently had not noticed that "free" members means no one spends money. If you pay free members to surf every month, they tend to stay that way. Plus, if you set the surf standards too low, you basically have a whole lot of people doing - nothing. And nothing does not pay the bills, does not attract advertisers, does not encourage members to upgrade.

Nothing then means you have no money to pay the members. Unless you have really deep pockets and another agenda for starting the whole affair to begin with, of course you are doomed. Of course you cannot pay. Of course you have no substantial or loyal or (God forbid) WORKING membership. Everyone along for the gravy train and the free ride and no one noticing the rather ill concealed lumps or the sink holes in the road. For those lured by promises of EVEN BIGGER PAYOFFS by investing their money in the ill-fated enterprise...

2Daily has stopped paying members, stopped answering emails and have shut the doors permanently.

So, what does that say about the paid-to-surf industry? Is it a sham, scam, and a rip-off? In my opinion, absolutely NOT.

There are scammers and mis-guided and/or unscrupulous owners for sure. There are the sharks absolutely. There are those who have no clue - as in all sense and sensibility has left the building. Does this cast a shadow on the paid-to industry as a whole. Yes. But shadows are meant to be stepped out of.

There is a number of very successful and ethically run paid-to-surf programs on the Net. Some are very well established, some are new. Some have successfully employed the concept of free accounts and free money. Studio Traffic is the most notable (and probably the most emulated).

However, for every Studio Traffic there are THOUSANDS (or more) which fail. The primary reason for failure is that free money and free membership combined with LOW PAYOUT time frames and membership levels is inherently unstable. As a veteran of many paid-to sites, I know for a fact that the majority of them have very high payout levels for free members and there is a sound business reason behind this. By the time a free member finally reaches payout, the site has garnered a. many paying members b. many paying advertisers. These are the entities which actually pay a. hosting bills and b. the free members.

I belonged at one time to a number of paid-to sites where the payout was set at well over $150.00 for the free members. At .002 per click, well let's say it was a whole lot of reading required to make payout level. And then of course I didn't make $150.00. Nope. That was the LEVEL I had to accumulate. Sigh. I got paid anything over that. I never did reach payout. Kinda the whole point in the industry somewhat. That was 2003 - 2004.

Then, we started to see the backlash to all this. First there was all those programs which claimed to pay you $5, then $10 then $50 and THEN $150 per email. Yikes! One of them was supposedly paying out at $15,000. Like HOW?? (My all time favorite was the site that supposedly taught you how to earn $1 million reading emails. Right. My question was WHO WAS PAYING THAT? That what I wanted to find out because THAT was the business I wanted. Lol. I wanted to be the admin who PAID out that mil to members - plural.)

Point is: paid-to anything is a business. It must follow good, sound business practices and laws. Anyone can PROMISE anything. A promise is no good unless fulfilled. Ethical business owners know and appreciate this fact. They follow solid business models which guarantee success for the customers/members first. This guarantees them success. When looking for a good paid-to program to invest in ASK QUESTIONS! Analyze the situation. Does it MAKE SENSE? Then, proceed with caution always.

Cashflowpc: build your organization

Cashflowpc has been an interesting opportunity in development for well over a year now.

Unlike the majority of sites which more or less flash, splash, and then burn out
within a few months of launch
(usually taking a lot of money with them), this venue has taken a very different path. First, it continues to build on the free voucher/benefactor program.

They are building a large organization of sales representatives and, like all good sales organizations, are wanting to provide the tools and training to enable their sales force to market the upcoming products. In other words, this is a BUSINESS in which the business is NOT to sell the sales force but rather to promote their products to CONSUMERS of the upcoming products. Products will mostly be technology based goods and services ranging from V.O.I.P. to cellular phone service.

Next, they will be offering a good selection of technology goods/services and products. Because they are more sophisticated products, they are looking for a highly trained force which can effectively market these goods. These are not simple ebook downloads. The V.O.I.P and online security services will require some knowlege and understanding of these products and Cfpc is willing to invest their time into training the representatives. There will also be cellular phone service packages: all needing people who become educated on the services and can then assist consumers in finding the right solution for them.

A good place to start to read and study the company is at their corporate newsgroup site http://www.vortexmarketinggroup.com/main.html and at this homepage http://xtreamnet-cfpc.com/
A major distinction that sets Cfpc apart from the run of the mill opportunities
is that not only can you join free, there is no monthly fee and there will never
be a monthly fee.
Joel, CEO, wants each representative to learn, become educated regarding the products and then, armed with this knowlege and training, build their own successful franchise.

Because the company has taken the high road to building an organization as opposed to just garnering money from the members via a monthly fee or forced product purchase, the opportunity has taken, (in cyber time), a LONG time to develop. But, considering the destination and goals of the company, this is ok.

This offer will NOT, repeat NOT ever be done again. You will be saving so much by taking advantage of this that it is truly amazing. Personally, I think my partner is nuts but for the next 5 days only you can get a lifetime membership to the Xtreamnet Submitter ($80 value), a pro membership to XtreamSafeAddList ($50 value), a pro membership to XtreamFFA ($120 value) where you can send ads daily to more than 700 members of the list every day, an upgraded membership to all 4 of Xnet's ftj traffic exchanges ( GOLD at $240 value each/$960 total), and an executive membership to our traditional safelists: XtreamSafelist ($20 value), XtreamSurf Safelist ($20 value) and Paid2Read Safelist ($60 value). But hurry, it's over after midnight July 5th.

Why July 5th? That is XtreamSurf's birthday! The group is one year old 7/5/05 and celebrating with this huge sale. They have grown from one traffic site to 5 tes, 3 safelists, a SAL, 2 ffa boards, the Email Marketing Center (submitters), and a partnership with Just4uu email service.
So, you get all the above for the incredibly low price of just $147.97. A $1360.00 Value.

But wait, there is one more goodie...they will gift you into Powerpaysurf at the $50 level!! This means that by surfing your 100 pages daily - YOU WILL EARN YOUR INVESTMENT BACK!!
This is a one time cost only and is worth much, much more. You get to earn the money spent back PLUS you harness the awesome marketing tools needed to promote all your online businesses.

The upgraded memberships at the traffic exchanges are good for 1 year. The rest are lifetime memberships. Like I wrote earlier, I really do think my partner has totally lost it and gone crazy, but we are celebrating Independence day and our first year of being in business. So, what the hay, get wild and crazy. We need to pay our bills and this is one way to raise the money to do so...lol.

What a great way to celebrate by almost giving away these great advertising resources. So go right ahead and take advantage of all these great resources and make yourself some good sales, recruit some downlines and just plain enjoy your good fortune. We will NEVER do this again at this price. http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/XTMG4411/

10 Ways To Maintain Profits In A Slow Economy

10 Ways To Maintain Profits In A Slow Economy:

1. Sell more back end products to your existing customer base. You already created rapport, trust and proved your credibility to them.

2. Make it a practice to up sell to new and existing customers. After they decide to b.uy one product, o.ffer them another product.

3. Cross promote your products and services with other businesses that aren't competition. You will reach a wider audience at less cost.

4. Create joint venture deals with other businesses. You can expand your product line and target other profitable markets at a lower cost.

5. Start an affiliate program for your business. You will be able to spend less p.rofits on risk advertising and spend more money on g.uaranteed sales.

6. Trade advertising with other businesses to save revenue. You could trade e-zine ads, banners ads, links, print ads, etc.

7. Out source part of your workload. This can save on employee costs, equipment costs, taxation costs, expansion costs, etc.

8. Add low cost bonuses to your o.ffer that have a high perceived value. It could be ebooks, members only sites, consulting, e-reports, etc.

9. Use viral marketing to promote your business on the internet. Give away f.ree stuff with your ad copy include on it so others can give it away.

10. Follow up with all your prospects. You can use a f.ree e-zine, a follow-up autoresponder, an update or reminder l.ist, etc. Quote of the Day: "The basic principle of turning ideas into big money is to seize every money building idea and work with it until the idea fits your purpose, decide on the steps needed to make it work, and then proceed to do it as soon as possible." -- Duane Newcomb

The $1 email project

My partners, Ken Belz and Debra Challinor, and myself took a huge leap of faith in late May and committed ourselves to upgrading the Just4uu email service to a true commercial email service. One of the things we have learned over the years in business and marketing is that the free email services such as Yahoo, MSN, Hotmail, zwallet and others actively discourage email marketers from using their services. Even the not free services like AOL does this as well. There are many reasons for this, and it mostly has to do with SPAM laws (and complaints) and the sheer volume of email the average email marketer sends and receives.

For example: when you join a safe list you are asked for both a list and contact email. What happens is, when you send an ad from that safe list, the safe list server IN CONJUNCTION WITH YOUR EMAIL SERVER, sends that ad to all the members in list database. The same happens when another member of that safe list sends out an ad. So, one list of 500 members will typically send 500X500 emails in one day. Now, multiply that by THOUSANDS OF LISTS and HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of safe list members and you begin to see the enormity of the issue email servers face when dealing with commercial email and those who use email to market their goods and services.

The free email servers are not interested in supporting this, and who can blame them? Most of them have safe guards and filters built into the service which will REJECT any email which they consider commercial email. This means that all those emails sent out by all those members BOUNCE (or get returned to the source) back to the safe lists, thus clogging THEIR servers and creating havoc. So, most safe lists now ban yahoo, msn, hotmail, aol and etc.

All this leaves you with this: if you are going to market, you need at least two, reliable commercial email accounts: one for your contact address and one for your list address. Being marketers ourselves we know first hand how expensive that can be. Plus, realistically, you need more than two. Two is a good start, but you really need more than that in the long run. The more successful you become at marketing and the more venues you promote, the more commercial emails you need to support your marketing efforts.

Plus, you need a service that WILL NOT RETURN YOUR EMAILS or bounce! This aspect took much thought and engineering skills to accomplish. Putting together a “No Bounce” email service that is both POP3 and SMTP was challenging. The POP3 was necessary as it had to be compatible with box cleaning and validating software (for starters.). It needed features like a “one-click” delete function (not found on G-mail or yahoo or any web-based email service.). Finally, while we knew that we could not possibly offer this service for free, we needed to come up with the next best thing possible.

With all this in mind, we came up with the $1 30meg email account offer. We also knew we needed a lot of help promoting this service to the world. Although this looks great (I mean if we get thousands of members that means thousands of dollars right?), the reality is rather daunting. Paypal takes 33 cents out of this so our net is 67 cents. (We had to discontinue accepting Stormpay as they took 74 cents.) It currently costs us $600 per month for the server, so we need close to 1,000 members just to pay for the servers. As we grow, so will the need for more and larger and more sophisticated servers.

Now, if you can see your way to purchase one or two of these boxes, fantastic! But, what we really need is HELP promoting this service to the world. We do have an affiliate program. But you are not going to make much selling $1 email accounts for sure (although you will on our other boxes.) What may intrigue you is you have a chance to be a part of something new, different and exciting. Please email me at admin@xtreamnet.org if you are interested in helping us promote this ground-breaking service or visit our page at just4uu: http://www.just4uu.com/XtreamNet/html/account.html

Two Business Women turn F.R.EE Email Hosting on its Head.

Debra Challinor of Safeadlist.com and Cherie Halliday along with Ken Belz of XtreamNet.org sat down to decide how to solve a dilemma: how to provide Email marketers a Top Class Email account complete with POP, SMTP and much more at an affordable price that was acceptable to email marketing venues such as safe lists, submitters and FFA boards. Both women have been in the business of safe list advertising for many years, they also own and run Safe list Submitters and many other advertising sites. Ken Belz has been an online marketer for the past 5 years and involved with XtreamNet as the Director of Operations for the past year.

“Yahoo, MSN, Google and other Free Email account providers have been giving away great email services for years but they lack many thing,” says Debra, Manager Director of safeadlists.com. “This is correct,” says Cherie Halliday, CEO of XtreameNet.org, “and when we set up our Safelist Submitters, Debra and I found most members signed up with Free Email Accounts from Yahoo, MSN, Google and suchlike. Instantly we realized that these accounts caused problems! But, how do you tell your members that they really need to Fire your email (not your safe list)?” she asked. “You have to know how a safelist works,” says Ken, “ to understand why a Free Email account was an instant problem for people wanting to use a Safe list Submitter.”

1. When you signup with a safe list you are required to validate your email account which is sent in the form of a URL link to your subscription email account, you click this link and your email account is then validated with that particular safe list. When you use a Safe list Submitter you can join hundreds of Safe lists at a time. ALL these Safe lists then send you a URL link to click.
Most Safe list Submitters now offer an automated validation so you don’t have to validate hundreds of safe lists by hand.

NOW here the problems with FREE email accounts begin!For ANY outside software to gain access to an email account your Email Provider has to allow you POP access. “Yahoo, MSN, Google (yes, this includes G-mail) and other Free email providers DO NOT ALLOW POP access with their FREE email accounts so members find themselves validating hundreds of URLs by hand and this can take days,” says Cherie!

2. Then there is this problem: multiple accounts are created by people eager to join the safe lists and get their ads out! This has caused Safe list Hosts and Owners to put a stop to this by banning Free email accounts like Yahoo, MSN, Google etc, from hitting their servers and posting to their Safe list. “And who can blame them?,” says Debra. “NOBODY wants an unresponsive safe list . If we all did this then nobody would be reading ads, just setting up accounts from one day to the next, posting ads and starting again what an earth would be the point!?”

3. “Did you know that many web-based email services actually reject your incoming safe list email even if you have signed up to receive them?” asks Cherie. “Don’t get me wrong, we all love those free accounts at Yahoo, but, Yahoo is not email marketing friendly. In fact, most of your web-based email providers including Aol and msn/hotmail are either banned at most safe lists or return your marketing email, won’t allow it into your inbox and etc. This is lethal for online marketers using email to market their sites, services and products.” She concludes.

Just4uu ends the nightmare of safe list accounts being deactivated or closed due to bounced or returned email. Your email will never bounce or be returned due to our server being down, over-loaded, or returned because of filters. They built the service to be completely email and submitter marketing friendly.

4. These free email accounts also cause problems to the efficiency and running of the larger companies on the internet that want to send News and Information to their members but cannot because Free Email Providers Spam Filter their emails which means they choose which of your emails go directly to the trash, for you! To combat this problem, the best way they can, Companies send out emails encouraging their members to visit especially setup URL News and information sites.

Instead of being able to directly email their members, these companies have to hope members will visit these URLs to read their News and Important updates. Cashflowpc is a perfect recent example of this! They had to completely abandon emailing company news and updates to their membership due to the constraints on the free email accounts that filtered out and/or rejected their emails - even if the members wanted them and were expecting them!Debra, Cherie and Ken simultaneously agree that this is ridiculous and BAD for business. “Any company Admin wants and expects emails offering News and Updates landing safely and directly in your members email box” says Ken. But because of the Spam Filters on Free Email Providers this is not the case and does not happen.

Changes had to be made. This is where the new Just4uu/XtreamNet email service was born.

When confronted how they intended to do this Cherie, Debra and Ken told us this: “Nobody wants to pay huge amounts of money for an email account, the uptake on Free email accounts has proved this. Many people on the net use email accounts as a base, a means to get their own ads out. Our boxes are used purely as an advertising base and, as such, we are providing them at “almost free“ prices” they all laugh.

Although money is an issue people still want total control of their Email Boxes. So, while the service at Just4uu/XtreamNet is not “free”, it is as close to it as they can manage. “I been operating the original Just4uu.com for a long time and managed to keep our prices down“ says Debra. “Then, we knew we would have to go that extra mile to gain customers and grow as we needed. So we sat down, got our heads together, and came up with our $1.00 30MB account offer!”“There is absolutely no need to charge huge amounts of money for email accounts unless you are a small business and need to cover large costs!” says Cherie. “However charging less doesn't mean you have to cut corners on quality.” concludes Ken.

Just4uu is in the position to offer Top Quality Email Accounts at a fraction of the cost because of members signing up daily with the company. “We have gained a good reliable name on the internet and our members recommend us to other people.” the entrepreneurs conclude. “So, when it comes time to Fire your email (not your safe list),” Cherie says with a smile, “you know we are here for you.”

Fire your email! (not your safe list)

The over-riding philosophy of Just4uu/XtreamNet, is that your email service needs to be your ally, not your enemy. So they designed a new email service to work with all your submitters, safe lists and ffa resources and made it powerful enough to handle all your email requirements. They built a guaranteed POP3 and SMTP "bounce free" mailbox service that eliminates many obstacles faced by Email Marketers today. The server was especially built with safelists and submitters in mind and currently processes more than 200 emails PER SECOND.

A major headache the typical Email marketer faces is having their safe lists shut down, put on “vacation hold” or even deleted because of bouncing email. Even those meticulous at keeping their email boxes cleaned, will find their accounts placed on hold because their email bounced, not due to a full box, but because the server itself was down, failed, or, (worse yet - rejected your incoming emails.)

Servers typically can become overwhelmed by the sheer volume of email Marketers send and receive when using safe list and ffa submitters. In a typical day, an email marketer will receive thousands of emails, in return for their being able to send email ads themselves from the various programs they belong to. Multiply this by dozens, if not hundreds of box members, and you have an extreme load placed onto email servers. Which is why a lot of the major servers like Aol, Msn, Hotmail, and Yahoo (to name a few) actively DISCOURAGE email marketing and marketers. Which is also one of the reasons an increasing majority of safe lists do not allow these mail services any longer. Also, because they are typically web-based programs, valuable software like Validators and box cleaners do not work with them.

This is where Just4uu/XtreamNet No Bounce POP3/SMTP mail service comes in and fills a much needed area of service. It is specifically designed for email marketing, safe lists, submitters, ffa, and other volume email marketing venues. The server is huge and is presently processing over 200 emails per second without any strain. It will not reject incoming email nor will not it shut you down because you are receiving what it perceives to be too much email.

Because it is POP3/SMTP, the service is compatible with most necessary software like Validation and box cleaning programs. There is a very handy one-click delete all emails from your inbox icon, and you have the ability to import your emails from other email boxes. When you market, you need an ally. It appears that Just4UU/XtreamNet fill that need perfectly: http://www.just4uu.com/XtreamNet/index.html

Surf, get paid: GUARANTEED

(OPENPRESS) May 13, 2005 -- Xtream Net has just opened a new site. We offer a way to earn an income and at the same time, advertise any products or services that you wish.Sites like this have been around for a while, but Xtream Net is the First Company to ever Guarantee your money. You can place your webite(s), (up to 10 of them) in a rotator along with those of the other members of the program. Your website(s) will be viewed (along with those of the other members) by every member who is surfing.

This is a credit based system. This means that you will earn credits for viewing the sites of other members as they are being rotated. You will not ever see your own website there because the system is set up to avoid you wasting your own credits by viewing your own site. This program offers the choice of auto-surfing or manual surfing. To earn from this program you only have to surf 100 sites a day and will earn the maximum amount possible for that day. You cannot be paid for surfing more than 100 sites each day but you may surf for additional credits to show your site(s)to other members as they surf. This program will pay you for surfing each day 0.75% of your membership level.

The cost to join at the basic level is just $10.00 and the membership that you are purchasing will not expire for a full year (365 days) After you once join at the basic level, you may upgrade your level up to $999.99. You will be paid the same 0.75% for any level of membership you wish to purchase. The membership fees are not refundable, however if you surf 100 sites each day for a year you will find that you have made a tidy profit, especially at the higher levels of membership. Even the basic membership puts you in profit after 134 days as do all the levels of membership. The other 231 days of the year that are left are pure profits for you while advertising your own offers at the same time.

You actually earn for advertising your site(s) and the higher your membership level is, the more you will earn. You may request to be paid as soon as you have earned back the amount of your member level. You also have the option of increasing your member level with your earnings by requesting to compound them when you have reached the same amount of your membership level. In summary, this seems to be one of the best ways to earn and advertise available anywhere on the net today. Visit http://www.powerpaysurf.com to register. Complete the payment form to activate your account. Paypal, Stormpay and E-Gold are accepted at this time as ways to pay for your membership. This is the only guaranteed paid to surf program on the internet. We are guaranteeing a profit, whatever level of membership you decide to join at. This is a 100% guarantee that is good as long as the member surfs the required 100 sites each day for at least 134 days.

FFAs are great, being a Pro is better:

Posting your link free on FFA boards (Free For All) is a great way to start getting the word out on your site. In fact it is a very effective way to "mass" market your site in that respect. The best part is that it is free! When you post, you do get email ads back. That is the trade-off for free posting. Who do those emails come from? Why, the owners of the boards AND the paying Pro members that's who. Yes, Pro members get to email you their ads and offers daily.

XtreamFFA http://xtreamffa.msnethosting.com/ offers Pro memberships for only $5.00 monthly. There are anywhere from 1,000 - 2,500 people EVERY DAY who post to the FFA system XtreamFFA is linked to and every Pro member gets to email their ads to those leads daily. FFA's are great, being a Pro member of one even better. Go Pro now at http://xtreamffa.msnethosting.com/

Xtream Traffic makes good business sense

Joining the traffic exchanges at Xtream makes good business sense for marketers looking to increase traffic to their sites on a no or limited budget. The flagship, http://www.xtreamsurf.com, started 7-05-05 has weathered it's fair share of trials and tribulations including break-ins, hackers and server issues. Each trial has only made the exchange stronger and a viable addition to any marketing portfolio. The owners give credit to the outstanding and loyal (and very active) membership and a strong commitment to member service.

"We have survived a lot of things that would have shut another site down a long time ago," says Cherie Halliday, the founder of all the XtreamNet sites. Her partner and head of Admin, Ken Belz, agrees: "We are here for the long-haul. Years from now when you go searching for traffic, Xtream will be found."

The owners/admins, Cherie Halliday and Ken Belz, have focused on two areas: providing marketing resources beyond the traffic and ensuring as smooth and safe surf environment as possible. They also tie in the traffic sites with their other marketing venues to make about a complete a marketing network as you will find any where. Cherie focuses on finding free marketing resources and negotiating special offers for the members from other marketing venues. "I have been fortunate enough to have met and formed alliances and bonds with some remarkable business owners and entrepreneurs." Cherie then adds with a smile, "of course all this gets posted to the forum so all can share in my good fortune."

Ken concentrates on keeping the surf "clean" and safe for all. "I surf. I hate anything that disrupts that: pop ups, exit pages, down load and dialog boxes. If I can't surf, I leave a site. That is not going to happen at any of our sites," he says with conviction. Sometimes, this over all concern conflicts with an individual's site. "If it disrupts the surf, it won't be allowed," he says, "however, you can ALWAYS put it up on a text ad or a banner!"

This is another thing which makes Xtream sites worthy of anyone's consideration: lots of options. You can auto or manual surf, you can get banner and text ads, there is also paid-to-click. Combine that with the forum resources, and you have a great value. But, there is more as well!

Over the course of the year, Xtream has developed an entire marketing network of sites beyond the traffic. They now offer safe lists, a safeadlist, ffa boards, a submitter, tie in with a search engine and are developing a new service which will write and submit press releases.

Best of all, the majority of their sites remain free. They are all both auto and manual surf, with great traffic provided on both sides of the surf. On the traffic sites you can easily earn upgraded accounts which provide you access to banner and text ads and a better surf ratio. Once you try the traffic and decide to purchase an upgrade or try their items like pay-per-click, banner ads or text ads, you will find the prices very affordable and competitive with traffic exchanges on the market.

One of the fun (and interesting) things Admin does is periodically add "email rewards" for reading Admin email! They range from free memberships into their paid venues to links on the various blogs they publish. They also have a forum where they post free marketing resources like adblasters, great special offers, informative articles on marketing resources and more.
You always need traffic to your site, get Xtream traffic by joining all these sites today:

No Bounce is a Winner!

Just4uu and XtreamNet have combined forces to create the first guaranteed No Bounce email service on the net! 'These mailboxes are both POP3 and SMTP and designed with the Email Marketer in mind.' says Ken Belz, one of the partners behind http://www.just4uu.com/XtreamNet/index.html

One of the nightmares of marketing to safe lists, especially through submitters, is the email server being down. Many times it is because the server becomes overwhelmed by the shere volume of email incoming to the boxes. Members involved in safelist and/or FFA submitters will easily receive thousands of emails daily! When the loads push the server to the limit, the server will shut down, thus causing email to 'bounce.' Bounces go back to the submitters and safelists causing accounts to be set on 'vacation/bounce' hold. One must then notice this has happened and take the accounts off hold. Oftentimes the member isn't even aware this has occured. In time their accounts become inactive and then deleted.

http://www.just4uu.com/XtreamNet/index.html stops the nightmare. Their server is especially built to take the load of safelist and ffa emails and then some! Affordably priced, they even offer a great affiliate program where members earn 50% commissions.

Beware the "blog blaster' scam!

Business on the net is dynamic. New sites, programs, software, and etc come along hourly. This is exciting. But, remember: every new thing that comes along announcing that it is “THE NEXT BIG THING” ain’t always so.

Case in point: new site suddenly appears announcing that it has produced a “blog blaster.’ They throw up a lot of great looking statistics on blogs, how rapidly they are growing, how many of them there now are and make claims (all unfounded and unsubstantiated of course) and imply that you will be reaching all these blogs with their blaster. That you will be “unleashing” a marketing powerhouse by blasting your ads to all these blogs just ripe and waiting for your submission. They talk about RSS feeders and etc. They present information in such a way that the casual reader, especially one who does not own a blog, can be very much taken away by the information and rush to be a part of “THE NEXT BIG THING”. For a cost of $50 bucks or so of course.

The entire site, the case presented, the claims are one big ol fat lie. You need to be a blog owner to understand this. You see, while the statistics the site throws up are correct - there is a huge explosion of blogs on the net in the past year or so - that has NOTHING TO DO WITH THEIR CLAIMS OF A BLOG BLASTER! Nothing. Blogs, while the blog script is obtained from somewhere, the actual blog itself is individually owned and completely individually controlled. Every 10 million of them and counting.

Blogs do have access to an RSS feeder. Blogs and their articles can go out into the RSS feeder if that blog owner so desires. NOTHING flows back. If you want to post on an individual blog, that blogger must invite you individually. I don’t care if it is an article, an ad or a single link. You want it on a blog, that owner has to allow it. Simple. Period. No if ands or buts, and no “blaster”.
I find it fascinating that this new “blaster” is only targeting consumers. Not one post, not one news release, not one Press Release has been made on this blaster. Most telling is that I, as the owner of several blogs, have not heard one peep regarding any kind of blaster that would post ads to my blogs, or permission to even do so.

Suddenly, it appears on my traffic site at http://www.xtreamsurf.com/ . Suddenly, I have partner members sending me frantic emails on how this “spells the end of blogs as we know them” but asking that I get “onboard”.

Hogwash. The whole thing is hoyie, smoke and mirrors. And not even all that clever either. You have 10 million plus bloggers who will tell you: “no way, Jose” to a blaster. If I need another safe list I’ll go join one, or start one of my own: I already have four. My blogs, I don’t think so.
Bottomline: run away, do not even sign up for on the “free” thingee. Certainly DO NOT SPEND ANY MONEY HERE! (If you did, ask for an immediate refund

The First Ever Guaranteed Paid to Surf Program has just Launched

Xtream Surf has just launched the only guaranteed paid to surf program on the internet. We are guaranteeing a profit from joking and paying for a membership. This is a 100% guarantee that is good as long as the member surfs the required 100 sites each day for at least 134 days.
(PRWEB) May 11, 2005 -- Xtream Net has just opened a new site. We offer a way to earn an income and at the same time, advertise any products or services that you wish.
Sites like this have been around for a while, but Xtream Net is the First Company to ever Guarantee your money.
You can place your website(s), (up to 10 of them) in a rotator along with those of the other members of the program.
Your website(s) will be viewed (along with those of the other members) by every member who is surfing.
This is a credit based system. This means that you will earn credits for viewing the sites of other members as they are being rotated.
You will not ever see your own website there because the system is set up to avoid you wasting your own credits by viewing your own site.
This program offers the choice of auto-surfing or manual surfing.
To earn from this program you only have to surf 100 sites a day and will earn the maximum amount possible for that day.
You cannot be paid for surfing more than 100 sites each day but you may surf for additional credits to show your site(s)to other members as they surf.
This program will pay you for surfing each day 0.75% of your membership level.
The cost to join at the basic level is just $10.00 and the membership that you are purchasing will not expire for a full year (365 days)
After you once join at the basic level, you may
upgrade your level up to $999.99.

You will be paid the same 0.75% for any level of membership you wish to purchase.
The membership fees are not refundable, however if you surf 100 sites each day for a year you will find that you have made a tidy profit, especially at the higher levels of membership.
Even the basic membership puts you in profit after 134 days as do all the levels of membership.
The other 231 days of the year that are left are pure profits for you while advertising your own offers at the same time.
You actually earn for advertising your site(s) and the higher your membership level is, the more you will earn.
You may request to be paid as soon as you have earned back the amount of your member level.
You also have the option of increasing your member level with your earnings by requesting to compound them when you have reached the same amount of your membership level. In summary, this seems to be one of the best ways to earn and advertise available anywhere on the net today.
Visit http://www.powerpaysurf.com to register.
Complete the payment form to activate your account.
Paypal, Stormpay and E-Gold are accepted at this
time as ways to pay for your membership.

This is the only guaranteed paid to surf program on the internet.
We are guaranteeing a profit, whatever level of membership you decide to join at.
This is a 100% guarantee that is good as long as the members surf the required 100 sites each day for at least 134 days.

Introducing the “bounce free” mail server!

Just4uu.com and XtreamNet.org have joined forces to provide the first ever “bounce free” POP3 AND SMTP mail server on the Net. http://www.just4uu.com/XtreamNet/index.html now provides industrial strength mailboxes at extremely affordable and competitive prices in which the server “guarantees” mail will NOT BOUNCE do to server failure, downtime, unavailability and other reasons that plague most commercial mailbox providers.

How can we offer this guarantee? Simple. We had the server especially designed and built to provide this service, and OUR host and designer GUARANTEES the service to us. We are the only commercial POP3 and SMTP mailbox provider able to offer this guarantee. For you, this means your emails will be delivered to your inbox as you need them to be. Those of you using safelists and submitters know the nightmare, hassle, and havoc bouncing email causes to your accounts. It is especially frustrating when your emails bounce due to reasons beyond your control! Just4uu.com ends this problem now.

Of course, your mail could still bounce because you have a full box - but our handy “one-click” delete all mails is very handy for taking care of that issue. Also, they are compatible with all mailbox cleaners that use POP3 and/or SMTP. Plus, our affordable prices make it easy for you to own the size box which suits your needs.

If you do a lot of email marketing via safe lists, submitters and through FFA boards and submitters, you need http://www.just4uu.com/XtreamNet/index.html

Yet another way to "Get Zapped" online!

A few posts back I talked about examining and analyzing a site thoroughly before signing up for or promoting. A site has come along that is absolutely perfect for an exercise in doing just this. http://www.greenzap.com/ It first came across my traffic site a few weeks ago and I set it aside for a quick look see then, laughed at it and passed. To my surprise, many people were signing up for this thing! Could I be wrong? Was I mistaken in my first look-see? (It happens.)
But, to my credit, many more people are now scrutinizing this site and it looks like it will indeed be at least one candidate for scam of the quarter if not for at least half the year. There are many reasons why this is, and it is NOT rocket science. It is in fact, plain "common" sense. Simple actually, and this is how "I do it."
First thing I did was read and think upon what the site was saying about itself and then compare it with what facts I saw presented. This particular site has this to say about itself:

1. “…do just about anything with money online…buy on eBay…Yahoo Auctions…”

Ok, let us stop right there. Been on eBay lately? Bought anything from anyone on eBay lately? Noticed ANY OTHER PAYMENT PROCESSOR BESIDES PAYPAL on eBay lately? I mean, you don’t even see storm pay let alone egold, INTGOLD, and etc. In fact, eBay IS PayPal,. No, Paypal IS eBay. Don’t believe me? Log into paypal and check out the bottom of the screen: “paypal is an eBay company. Lol. So, strike #1 and it is a biggee. Oh, and Yahoo Auctions? - THAT is StormPay. See where YOUR log out takes you next time you visit then exit StormPay.

So, right here you have big, fat, LIE and big ‘ol strike one.


2. “GreenZap is a fun, simple, low-cost way for people to send, spend, and receive money online. GreenZap account holders can send money to anyone around the world as long as they have an email address. “

Ok, so now they are a bank? Online banks do this. Yepper, and are governed by state, national, and international banking regulations. So, where is all that info? Policy and privacy statements, you know, the usual “I am trusting my money to a bank/processor thing?” Noticeably missing you see.

3. “Members can spend money purchasing goods and services from other GreenZap members & merchants or from other popular sites, including eBay® and Yahoo® Auctions. “

Really? And how is that accomplished pray tell? Have YOU seen a merchant taking GreenZap lately? A payment processor button please any where anyone? Ebay and Yahoo Auctions, don’t think so. See above.

4. “…or earn money by telling others about GreenZap”
The much promoted $25.00. Is there a processor here? No. So, are you actually getting this $25.00? No. Smoke and Mirrors.

Already there are 4 unsubstantiated claims here. This is where logic kicks in f + f+ f +f = false. This site is false. False is bad. False means “run away from.” Which of course, I did.
But here is the really crazy thing: they are telling you that when you join you receive $25 in your account for each member you sign up. Look, it is a meaningless, empty number. It has no substance. It is fluff, smoke and mirrors. I have a friend who joined and this so I asked him what his experience was regarding the money that is supposedly “deposited” into your account. He said:


“Doesn’t happen.”


I am not alone here: other people have done some research into this site, the owner/s and the claims. This person in particular has put together a great page on the venture: http://www.greenzapscam.com/ It is rather lengthy but well worth the read. My favorite little snippet can be found towards the bottom of the site:

“Interesting Facts
Doing a search of the address in the WHOIS records reveals two interesting pieces of information:
Ralphs Grocery CO - LA Jolla, Store 1088677 Villa La Jolla Drive, La Jolla, CA 92037(858) 597-1550(Found from:
http://phonebook.superpages.com/yellowpages/C-Grocery+Stores/S-CA/T-La%20Jolla/)
PostalAnnex provides mailbox services, and how interesting that one of their stores (store #177) shares the same address as GreenZap too:
http://www.postalannex.com/Find/store_detail.asp?id=177&city=&state=&zip=92037&storenumber=&action=submitted&page=1
I’m sorry, but it appears that GreenZap.com, the Paypal-killer, is operating out of a grocery store or a mailbox! “ *

Of course he also confirms what I already stated above: eBay is PayPal…and I don’t think you are going to see another payment processor coming anytime soon.

GZ totes itself as being “ a fun, simple, low-cost way for people to send….money online“…RIGHT OUT OF YOUR HANDS AND INTO THEIRS! My advise: stay away from it. It is some kind of email harvesting scam. Insulate yourself thoroughly, you might get zapped good by this one if you don’t!

Considering an op? Send me the link…we will take a look see.
*hey, everyone has to start from somewhere, sometime. But, to make claims you are taking on Paypal? You need to get a life here.
