    It looks like it belongs in the "too good to be true" category. Salesletter is completely blind-all we know is that it is some web based software that pumps out free targeted traffic like a magic genie. Anybody peeked under the hood?

        I totally agree, a software that makes $50000 per month, can you imagine that, and they sell it for $67 mmmmhhhh!!!
        So now we all go and buy this software and that's it, forget the rest, no more SEO, articles, backlinks, and all the rest..
        Sorry but I find it hard to believe.

          UPDATE: A short video was just released that shows how TPS works, kind of. The link to this video is here: http://www.turboprofitsniper.com/howitworks.html

          I am going to see if this really works as advertised, and if it does, I guess I'll be having some CROW for dinner! It really does look simple, but of course I am very sceptical.

          I promise to give an honest review of TPS. If it works, I'll say so. If it sucks, I'll let you know. If you decide to buy it, you COULD buy it from me. Why would you do that? I will send anyone who does buy it an $80 Google Adwords Coupon code, and give you some good tips on the best way to set up multiple accounts with Google, and be able to test multiple ads for almost free. If this is out of line, let me know, and I will remove it. I will not put an affiliate link here. Just contact me directly.

          This is what I wrote previously:
          I bought this last night, and after spending an hour sifting through all of the 3 or 4 UPSELLS, one of which I bought, I was finally able to log into the "web based interface".

          It seems, although it was hard to tell, that this is simply an article submission and SEO thing that has an article "spinner" to create multiple similar versions of an article you want to submit, but to prevent Google from recognizing it as duplicate content. Big deal. There are plenty of those out there.

          The first upsell was a $67 membership that was supposed to enhance Turbo Profit Sniper, and it was through "Affiliate X" where I got the original solicitation. Then when you log into this upsell, you are encouraged to spend yet another $97 to buy an upgrade to that upsell, because it only gives you 10 high gravity "niches", and you supposedly get 100+ with the upgrade! Unbelievable....

          Once I got into the TPS website, there was nothing there. No videos, no manuals, no instructions. NOTHING to tell me what I was supposed to be doing to make this "automated" "software" work.

          Since they launched yesterday, they must have had a ton of complaints. They finally decided to give buyers an instructional video, and give away for "free" one of the upsells they were charging for.

          I would like to think that this is for real, but so far, it has all of the telltale signs of "The Retired Millionaire", "The Affiliate Code" and others that fall very short of any of their claims.

          I requested a refund after about an hour of trying to see what the heck I paid $67 for. Perhaps the video, which they claim is coming today, will shed some light on how / if this thing works.

          I have to thank these guys though. They were the last straw that helped me decide to NEVER buy another one of these programs without reading a review for them on WF. If they only have 200 copies, which they claim, then there certainly won't be enough time for anyone to write a review on TPS. Perhaps this is done intentionally, so nobody will have time to review them before they close their doors?

          I hope someone can prove to us that this is a viable product. To be continued..........

    Gotta admit I was suckered into the lure of empty promises...

    After buying the product and the upsell, I logged in to find no training, no explanation, dead pic links, a second "restricted access" login that wouldn't let me log in (no idea what I'd find if i did though).

    What I did find was a dashboard for many freely available online tools (Google insight, trends, etc.), a simple word processor, an abstract tool and other such tools that are neither best of class nor unique.

    What did I do... submitted two tickets to CB for refunds which I'm still awaiting.

    The old adage always applies. If it sounds too good to be true....


    It's always nice to know that a refund gives a risk free look to see.

      "Trust me" is pretty much the same as when someone says "to be honest with you" they're almost always lying.

      I followed the short instructions in the video (Created by Camtasia Studio 7), since they hadn't refunded me yet, and supposedly I'm going to have piles of cash in my Clickbank account by tomorrow, and without doing anything, I will earn at least $1000 within 7 days.....or my money back! It's sure going to be hard to sleep tonight

    I purchased this also along with the premium account but not the monthly membership. I'm a little confused though once I log in, what exactly are my premium features compared to the regular $67 account?...lol

    I did enter my clickbank ID and according to the program instructional video thats all you need to do. I check my clickbank account a fewhours later and it reads $0.00...lol.

    Sine I have 60 days I guess I'll wait to see the remaing videos to see if this is something worth keeping. However a few overnight commissions might help in that decision

    As a Premium member aren't we suppose to be able to login to the Site Activity Dashboard? I haven't been able to access yet (

    Any input or assistance is appreciated!

      I bought this as well.
      When I logged in, I was totally confused, unamused and disappointed.
      Opened a ticket right away and basically told them what I felt.

      Received 3 emails today:
      The first said they were working on an instructional video and it should be released by mid-day today.
      The second apologizing for the delay in releasing the video and that they are working on it.
      The third included a link to the first video with more to come.

      I'm rather skeptical with this whole thing.
      Checked my ClickBank account a few minutes ago and it was showing zero.
      Will give them a few days. If I don't see anything in my ClickBank account then I will send for a refund.

    I bought out of a sceptical/amuse me type of mindset ... and as soon as I logged into the top secret log in area one word in particular came to mind, which was DOH! (said in a homer voice in my head).

    This has to be the worst none product that I have ever seen. I think our millionarre is so retired that he forgot to do a basic 'this is how it works' video. The inside of the site looks a bit ... how can I say this, CRAPOLA! In fact it is clear more time was spent developing the upsells and oto's than the actual product itself.

    I have since had such a video (that sucks) sent to my inbox and am guessing that guy voicing it in a slightly nervous-sweat kind of way has had a bad day.

    Anyway I have 59 more days to go before I demand a FULL refund so will see what happens. ALL THIS SAID IF I START GETTING THE SALES PROMISED I WILL BE BACK TO EAT HUMBLE PIE.

    Final thought, I did wonder why instead of selling 200 copies the author did not just get his 12 staff to set up 200 cb accounts and move to billionarre status.

    Speak soon

    Did anyone pay the extra $97 for the Premium status and could they explain the difference brtween the regular account and the Premium account? The OTO didn't explain clearly what you were getting, only that it was necessary to make everything completely auto pilot!

    "you will make 1000 in your first week, or you get a full refund"

    I have a feeling they will be getting a LOT of refunds.

    I found this video (thank god) before I wanted to purchase yesterday:

    Turbo Profit Sniper Review - Before you buy - Zenoscript.com

    I am currently taking Jeff Walkers Product Launch Formula 3.0
    and he says "one of the easiest ways to destroy your business is launching
    a crap product"

    Well, everyone, the case study on how NOT to do a launch is here.

    Somehow I think these guy's never heard Dan Kennedy's saying
    "its the OFFER STUPID"

      Are you kidding me...

      This has to be some sort of sick joke right?

      I mean they should have just said "hit that add to cart button now... so we can stick deep in your #$%"

      this will for sure go done in history as the highest refund product ever and the only thing this did for these guys is build them a list (a very expensive one at that and I am sure none responsive)

      well thats my 2 cents on it will see if any one makes that $1000 in a week... LOL

        24 hours in now ... no new videos as we where told yesterday.

        Also ZERO ... that is ZERO sales.

        I have recieved an email with a link in it for the video which they already sent out yesterday.

        So far not impressed. The interesting thing with this one is that site owners are doing all the work for me (supposedly) i.e. I entered my hop and their magic software is doing the work.

        That means this is not a case of user error ... and I can honestly say I have done everything I should have to make it work.

        A refund from CB will happen if in two weeks time I have received no sales. However I am going to stick with it and see what happens.

        My reasoning is that they asked for my hop link and state in the video sent yesterday that they distribute my link on lots of sites automatically which is how I make money, therefore it may just be a case of waiting a little while. If true maybe they could have said that it takes 3 - 5 days for the software to kick in.

        I notice one of my colleagues in here has said that he has already had two sales, if I get my $67 back in sales I will not go for a refund and see what happens long term.

        All this said I have to say that this is a really poor example of a product launch. It seems all the effort has gone into selling the product and the subsequent upsells and none into the actual product itself. For example their are no tutorials etc ...

        Just a final comment I notice that the address given for the site owners is the Hacienda in Manchester ... this as far as I know is not a residence but a well known Nightclub.

        Anyway will keep everyone informed of my progress with this one

          Hi John,

          You are right the Hacienda WAS a nightclub in Manchester. It closed it's doors a long time ago. Alarm bells would be ringing for me now

            The Hacienda is an apartment building now - they converted it a few years back. VERY expensive city center apartments

    If the owners of TPS really want to salvage whats left of their reputation and try and reedem this product, they need to appoligize to their paying customers for not having this ready. The only thing they had ready was the sales page and OTO to make it easiers for them to collect their payments. It's time for some IMMEDIATE and SERIOUS damage control on their part. The site still has many broken links, broken picture links, premium members not being able to login to their statistics dashboard and no clarification on many things. Come on guys....it's just a matter of a few days now before everyone who purchased this will request a full refund and Clickbank removes it from their site.

      I too bought into this magic software because as so many on here have been, I
      am in need of income. I had a severe heart attack at the end of the yr. I have
      not been able to work since. I wanted this to work in the worst way. Foolish I know
      from reading the same situations from other members. But I decided to give it a shot.
      I had also been burned just days before with Blogging to the bank blog set up by Mr
      Benwells team. That blog that was to have been set up and running in 24-48 hrs. on
      July 23rd has not seen the light of day yet. Nor have I gotten anything from his support.
      These experiences leave a bad taste in ones mouth to be sure. Maybe I will have better
      luck with a WSO.

    Sorry to hear about your heart attack, I hope your health continues to improve. Rather than stressing yourself out chasing products, why not come up with your own one?

    Draw on your own situation, how you coped with your health problems, the impact on your daily life and your friends and family. Make some notes, what scared you at the time and how you got past it. Make some notes about it.

    Next head over to hostgator and get yourself a low cost package and a domain with your heart attack keyword in it. Use Fantastico in your cpanel (part of your hosting) to install wordpress in a couple of clicks. Choose a suitable free theme and get writing.

    Now go write about it! Everyday! Think about what you would have searched for when you had yours. Think about what your friends and would have searched for and write your posts about them.

    Examples: Coping with a heart attack. Getting over a heart attack. Minimizing risks of a repeat heart attack. My partner has had a heart attack, what can I do?

    Prove good quality content (you can research it) but don't copy, keep it 100% unique.

    Build some links to your site from forums, web 2.0, article directories and before you know it you'll get traffic.

    Get rewarded for your efforts by monetizing your site. You could show adsense on your site. You may choose to include an autoresponder lead capture page and follow up your visitors with more helpful advise and the occasional sales email, probably to a health related affiliate product.

    Turn a bad situation into a good one. I'll help you where I can with tips and advice.

    BTW anyone can get refunds from Clickbank on any Clickbank product with 60 days, so don't worry about getting your money back if you choose to.

            Hey Warriors

            We picked this up more than a week ago and haven't seen anything as yet in terms of additional clicks or $$$$ :confused:

            We figured that they were pretty disorganised when they came out with the "mind-numbing thought" that maybe people would want to know what to do once they paid.

            Anyway, when we got the generic support ticket that everyone seems to have received we thought ok - lets just wait another 2 -3 days.

            Well - time's up and we are off to clickbank to hit the REFUND button and good old Affiliate X's refund button will be hit too.

            This reeks of the "Commission Robot" type concept that did the rounds about 14 or 15 months ago?????

            Anyway, off to Clickbank. Cya

              Be nice if it actually worked though. Maybe I'll wait for 58 days.

    Hey,

    I just wonder if FCS should investigate. It should not be acceptable to promise incomes just to sell a product.

    How many people have actually made some profit?

    Hello everyone,

    I received several messages (most of these lists loosed myself has a subscriber), visited Sales Page and didn't find nothing about the product: just benefits and no characteristics >> typical "buy my s%&#" and "buy my upsells" and you will be rich and you can get a refund...

    During my research I've found a legit way to register for free in their system and I submitted a ticket telling them about the hole.

    Guess what? No answer to my ticket and my account is still operational after 2 days...

    Their product has nothing to review. You just pay $67 to submit your clickbankID and wait!

    My sincere advice: Don't wait, ask for refund.

      Yea same here clickbank ID entered days ago and still waiting. Account still at zero. And still waiting also for those additional videos promising to show me how to use the members area.
      I was shocked when I logged into the members area and did not know what to do,no welcome message or any instructions whatsoever to help anyone to use the software. I was like what did I just buy for $67.
      I was all for a refund right away but I told myself I will sleep on it and do it next day. Then I got an email asking me to stick with him cause his software will help me so I am giving him the benefit of the doubt because I still have time to put in my request for a refund. I did not purchase the upsell frankly I do not even see the need for it.

    Hey folks,
    I bought this since it was a clickbank deal and a refund is a sure thing.
    How bout that email from them today? Says he is organzing some new videos to help us use this system or whatnot, to teach us "what we need to do to make killer profits". Hahaha, I had to take a double look at that sentence there! LOL
    Like mentioned above, I logged in, placed my clickbank ID into the system or software and was told that was it! Nothing further to do, but wait for the cash money to plant itself into my account.

    Should I go car shopping this weekend guys?

    I mean, it is guaranteed income ya know. ; )

      Got to say @theLakenGroup that I too am intrigued as to what the videos are going to show me given that we just had to enter our CB id and then go and get a manicure whilst seeing massive amounts of dosh storm my account.

      What I did notice in the same email was that in closing Ian said "Please do stick with me. I'm working around the clock to get this sorted for you. And next week is going to be a good one!"

      So Let's all compare what happens next week.

      Meantime I wonder if they have sold out the 200 packages earning a minimum of $13,400 with upsales possible $15 - $20K.

      With earnings like this at least the product makers had a good week, although I would imagine most of their sales may have been refunded.

      Anyway I am going to see what happens this week.

    A quote from the Turbo Profit Sniper site:

    Earning $2,000,000 in my first two years of using this piece of software was a phenomenal wake up call. At last, I could actually relax with the knowledge that I really don't have to do anything – the money just rolls in.
    It puzzles the hell out of me why someone who made $2,000,000 in 2 years would even bother publishing his method and selling it to "Only 200 People" to get a maximum of $20,000.
    Something does not compute.

    This product is a load of rubbish.

    First off, if anyone here really thinks that you can spend $67 and then wait for money to flood into your account you are truly very delusional.

    Secondly, with "super JV's" such as
    Chris X
    Craig Kaye
    Steven Lee Jones
    Andrew X
    Rob Benwell
    Matt Benwell
    Andrew Fox
    Mo Latif
    Imran S
    Kieran Gill
    Mike Auton
    Daniel Katz

    Already on board, they are planning on selling much more than 200 copies.

    The sales page is complete B.S. and the product is even worse.

    Don't waste your time buying gimmicks. But rather study and learn from people who know there stuff and work on creating a proper business online.

      Oh yeah for sure they are planning on selling much more than 200 copies never fall for that trick...

      that is just scarcity and they have definitely hit way over the 200 mark because they are #2 in the clickbank market place right now.

      who let them get there? that is pathetic, this is hands down the worst product I have ever seen.

      Well they must have done something right or they would not be there, so my advice is learn from these dudes because they are selling complete crap and with some affiliates behind you it does not matter what offer you have as long as the sales copy is good I guess.

      "So who wants to do a jv with me I am going to spend $25k for my sales letter making it sound like I have the best thing since sliced bread.

      And better yet the product will be nothing but a blank page saying imagine this is you ideal product use you imagination because anything is possible..."

      who's with me? LOL

    Well I shouldn't really be surprised but I'm 4 days in and still no sales from Turbo Profit Sniper.

    I'll admit though my b@ll**** alarm was ringing its head off when I saw the video stating just 'enter your clickbank id and let the money roll in' lol, but I thought what the hell I'll give it a few weeks see what happens.

    I'll keep you posted...

      Good question.
      The thing is, some are only interested in one thing, and one thing only:
      "How much money can I make out of this thing".

      I've sent a request to Clickbank for a refund.

        What I don't understand is why would someone sell a product that doesn't work as advertised with a 60 day refund full well knowing the product doesn't work and that people will refund it? As someone mentioned earlier in the thread, maybe it was to build a list but the sellers of the product would have to know that nobody on that list is going to trust them and just unsubscribe from it anyways. Mindboggling :confused:

        I'm going to ride it out for the 60 days and then just get my money back if I haven't made anything.

        To any of those that went with the OTO for Affiliate X, how is this in any way related to the Turbo Profit Sniper? The OTO sales page said this offer would automate the TPS, but as far as I can tell it's already automated.

        To any of those that went with the second OTO for Advanced Turbo Profit Sniper, what exactly is this? I haven't been able to figure this out. Is this just the Premium account upgrade for TPS and if so, what are the differences between Premium and Standard?

        To Lifechanging, how did you get yours to say you were a Premium member? I upgraded (as far as I can tell) but mine still says Standard member.

          Got an email this morning, part of which says:
          -------------------
          "If you have entered your ClickBank ID into the box provided on the app
          then you have done all you need to profit from this feature! This
          application is 100% automated by my team and involves us using various
          automated methods to promote a number of ClickBank products using you
          guys' ClickBank affiliate IDs. This service will be ongoing and you will
          find that clicks/sales increase with time as we extend this service more
          and more.
          PLEASE NOTE: A few customers have commented that they have not seen any
          results from this application. This is because we have been working on the
          app and have only just activated it TODAY. "
          -------------------
          That email was about 10 hours ago.
          I can't wait for "my clicks/sales increase with time"; let's say from 0 to 1? Maybe?
          This product is now at #3 on the ClickBank hot 100.
          And zero results so far from my investment, day 3.

          Oooookaaay. It's been out several days and was just activated TODAY? After how many refunds? I may have figured something out... the reason it has a 200 member limit with hundreds of JV affiliate review pages is because the cancellations keep it from getting above 200. lol

    I do some stupid things sometimes, in the name of research of course! After reading this and also considering the huge amount of sales the product has been getting despite the feedback above, I decided to check it out myself.

    It appears to me that the main product is all about the product creator sharing your clickbank link on rotation, so they are either owning some highly optimised websites that they are showing ads on for free (with a script showing different clickbank ads in rotation) or they are using the content network to get cheap clicks.

    However what I don't get is what happens when the money runs out? E.g. If they are paying for ads then why not sell it as a monthly recurring.

    If I am right, then it's going to down to luck if you actually make money off this.

    Still day 1 of a 60 day refund period so I am in.

    Agree the backend is terrible, I have access to loads of tools as a premium member but I am yet to be convinced on the quality.

    I'll keep you guys updated.

      Dont forget to read Turbo Profit Sniper Here's a little snippet : '' Returns and refunds policy: as stated, if you purchase Turbo Profit Sniper, and you do not enjoy the financial freedom that you expected, do not make as much from our software as you expected, or indeed for any reason, you may claim a refund for the product within 60 days of purchase. On a sidenote we do ask you to put the techniques into use before requesting a refund, for both our benefit: however, our refund policy is unconditional and this is a suggestion, not a requirement. We are aware that some buyers will not achieve their personal goals despite our best efforts to the contrary, and we stand by our refund policy as such. Please forward your receipt number (given to you when you ordered) to us and we will action your refund request as quickly as possible, typically within 24 hours''

      That's exactly what I thought.

      To release a product that's got everyone baffled which doesn't seem to be working yet and then send out an affiliate email for another product......!

    I jumped right on Turbo Profit Sniper (probablly a very foolish decision) and took a

    67.00 upgrade. It turned out to be AffiliateX (I have only heard of) but....

    what does it have to do with Turbo Profit Snyper? Looks like nothing to me!

    I did not take the second upgrade but I think it gives you the premium membership.

    Looks like you have to have it to access the site activity dashboard and a few other

    features of the software.

    I've been in a bad situation and have jumped on a few IM products lately
    out of couiosity and desperation. I have found several of them to be incomplete for launch with promises of more to come shortly and maybe an apology.
    I won't mention any of them here, but will post in their respective threads.

    Anyway TPS has not worked for me as of yet........It has been 5 days.

    I would think you must need to do some work to help your traffic along.

    What do you send traffic too??? TOOooo many questions.


    If you joined, I'm sure you have received several update emails from Ian.
    It is the first time I have seen a promise of 7 more days added to your refund time.
    He seems to care but I have learned some of these guys are great at leading you on
    with promises and not delivering.

    I have been burned a few times before with promises that ended up costing me way to much lost time that I can not recover. AT Leaset with this...

    I won't waste any of my time while waiting a week or two to see what happens. I have plenty to do elseware.
    I can recover my money but not my time. Thank God for Clickbank.


    I think it was mentioned earlier about the 200 copies just being a scarcity call.. how true!! I got a email from someone else saying they were giving away 50 more.

    You see this all the time and then they have an affiliate progam **** HELLO, so how in the world is this not going to get saturated with competion from ?X? number of
    affiliate ads in rotation?
    (assuming thats what there doing) Anyhow the questions are many and the answers are few.


    If anyone uses the software further than just entering your clickbank ID it would be helpful if we could all post what we've learned to help each other out.

    To be honest I am unsure if I'm going to invest my time yet or not.

    I did get my update about the system as promised by Ian today so I'll go check it out and see if it clears things up any.

    Thanks for everyones comments here. I will check in on this thread often.


    Also-- About the AffiliatX upgrade--- I would love to know if this is

    the same Chris that launched Clickbank Pedators with Jerome?

    Please reply if anyone knows for sure!!!

    Thanks

    Well, very sceptical. I like the Article Spinner from TPS...it's easy and better than all these crap tools like "Magic Article Spinner/Creator" but how the hell should this software post my article to all these article networks without having an account? Crap, not to mention the design and usability of this software.

    Guys, they just want to scare you with their "limitation"...I think they sold over 200 copies just in the first hours...see the CB gravity (652).

    This is a classic example of why people become jaded. I very seldom rant against product launches because I am, after all, a marketer. But I'm also a sales copy writer, have been writing copy for two decades (started in mail order) and this is some of the worse copy I've read in a long time. It leaves the reader completely blind without even so much as a hint of what you're really getting.

    I've looked underneath the hood. I've played with the web-based software and I've got $27 pieces of software on my hard drive that will drive more traffic to my websites than this. In my opinion this product / service isn't even worth the price of admission. Whatever happened to alpha and beta testing your own service and sales process before launching?

    I lost all respect on any name associated with this launch. "Only 200 copies" will be sold? Do they really think we're that stupid? Apparently they do. That's all I have to write at this point as I'm shaking my head in total and utter disgust.

        Don't get me wrong, I'm not from the Ian Ross team or whatever but did you drive traffic with your articles to your website or affiliate link? I think that many people do it the wrong way and blast out rewritten articles without any affiliate links or whatever you use.

    Yup, another one bites the dust!

    I did purchase and was completely stumped once I finally got access which took days. Looks like there are some tools inside that might be useful if they only explained it.

    Looks like there's only one clickbank account raking in the $$ on this one!

    And I knew better but saved by clickbank's return policy! Yes

    Thanks to everyone here for the reviews!

    I bought it because of the horrible sales page - couldn't resist it. Just wanted to see how they were planning to run the whole thing after the initial launch... It seems that they don't - it's a complete fail boat.

    I hate asking for refunds, but in this case it was 100% justified. Clickbank for the win. I don't think they would've sold this many copies if not for Clickbank's refund policy.

    I just recieved and email from Ian at TPS

    As follows ...

    I hope you are well.

    We've been hearing about some really good results from many of you this week
    - which is really great to hear!

    However, for those still struggling... please do go and check the videos out and use the software! The automated CB hoplink feature is simply one component of this software... there is so much more! And my support team are at hand to help you along!

    Many of you have been asking me about how to go about promoting a product when it comes to launch day. That's why I've been pestering my friend Craig Kaye to let me give you guys this absolute killer free bonus. Inside you're going to learn some incredible techniques on how to make huge profits from any product you choose to promote at launch day... this really is good stuff...

    And the best thing is that you can use Turbo Profit Sniper to implement many of these techniques!

    Download the guide for free from the link below:

    LINK REMOVED TO RESPECT THE VENDOR

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ian

    To be honest it left me feeling quite cross simply because the CB HOPLINK FEATURE is the product ... to suggest otherwise seems to contradict the sales page

    Especially the image of the three boxes.

    Anyway was promised some results this week and nothing has happened at all.

      Got the same email John and thought the exact same thing. TPS was supposed to be the product, not some little add-on to their article spinner or whatever else they've got on there. Also, not sure who these people are who are claiming great results lol.

    Hello fellow bamboozled Warriors
    I must have been high when I clicked buy now for Turbo Profit Sniper. 10 days in and my CB account is so empty it echoes...but not so my inbox which has seen a flurry of aff offers from Ian Ross. Very cheeky.
    What is behind it do you think? Are they rotating display ads/hops though their sites/other sites?....if so with a CB gravity of 584 (dropping) the sales are so diluted that the few sales actually made go to those who got in first?

    I wish it had worked but then again I wish that women found me as attractive and suave as George Clooney but alas...

    Who would trust a product from Ian Ross again? In truth I am also ticked off at the Hard Cash Hijack seller as it was his hoplink I clicked

      I applied for my refund yesterday through CB. Am so tired of wasting my time on these scams. Seems like so much of what is promoted through Clickbank is pure garbage, riddled with "vendors" who are hoping that you'll be too lazy to hit the "Refund" button.

      I have asked Clickbank where I can get ACCURATE Refund statistics, and they have not replied. This would indicate to me that they are more interested in protecting their vendors than their buyers or affiliates.

      When using PPC to promote CB products, we cannot be successful with a product that has a high refund rate. You could spend hundreds, if not thousands of $$ on PPC for a single campaign, thinking that you're making money, and even increasing your bids as the sales roll in. Then a few days later, you start seeing the huge amount of refunds, and realize that you've lost money...and a lot of time.

      Why CB will not provide Refund stats really concerns me. It seems that with all of the affiliates and vendors on the Warrior Forum, PLUS all of the affiliates and buyers on the WF members' lists, we, as a group could petition or demand that Clickbank provide us with accurate sales, refund and other vital statistics. This would help to protect both buyers and affiliates, and weed out a lot of vendors who prey upon the "newbie bucks".

      Since Clickbank is the venue through which many vendors peddle their scams, shouldn't they be held liable, or at least somewhat responsible for the consequences of allowing these scams to be sold on their site, and profiting from them?

      With all of the fake PhotoShopped Clickbank "Sales Snapshots", phony testimonials, inflated or false income statements or projections that are in so many of the products in CB's Internet Marketing niche, I would think that the Federal Trade Commission would see Clickbank as a One-stop resource for rounding up a huge amount of these fraudsters, investigating them, convicting some, and levying fines against many others. And all this, without even having to leave Clickbank.com.

      I would like to see a feedback system, like Amazon's, which would allow buyers to rate the products they purchased. Certainly this would be subject to abuse, but it would be better than nothing. Some sort of verification process could be implemented to ensure at least a reasonable level of authenticity.

      Even with a refund, vendors who intentionally scam buyers are stealing the most valuable and limited resource we have....time. Money can always be replaced, but time cannot. And the time we waste trying to implement the flawed strategies of these fraudsters, is time that has been stolen from time we could have spent with our families, friends and other legitimate business pursuits.

      Anyone else interested in helping to clean up the Internet Marketing arena? It's starting to smell like "MLM".
