I am over having
someone illegally harvest my email address from websites
then sell them for a profit to another company telling
they are opt in addresses.
That is what these
people do. Then they demand you opt out to not get
spammed! I looked up these clowns and here is what I
found...

Typical report:
My name is Tom and I
am an insurance agent in Oregon. I am compelled to
report my experiences with RAMP-LLC, in hopes of
minimizing the chances of someone else falling prey to
this company.
In Oct. 2011, I was contacted by RAMP-LLC. I then spoke
with the sales rep. Adam Ross. We discussed their lead
program in detail. Adam went as far as sending an
invoice stating the companies guarantees and credit
policy. This process went on for approx. 2 1/2 weeks.
During this time, I spoke with Stephanie Boyd and Ron
Stevens who are the owners of RAMP-LLC. They also
confirmed everything that was told to me by Adam Ross.
In mid-Nov. 2011, I purchased Life and LTC leads from
RAMP-LLC. The leads were absolute garbage. Now keep in
mind that RAMP-LLC niche is qualified leads through the
lead generating process of sending reply slips out with
bank statements. They also guarantee that the lead will
not be older than 15 days and every lead must request
that an agent call them in order to be a qualified lead
under RAMP-LLC standards. |
My leads included; fax numbers, disconnected numbers,
numbers on the federal DNC list, upset people who were
adamant that they did not fill-out a reply card or
request that an agent call them. Most leads did not meet
the minimum net worth or minimum household income
criteria that RAMP-LLC claims qualified a lead to be
sold to their clients. Bottom-line; none of the leads
that I was able to contact was a qualified lead under
the standards that Adam Ross stated during his
discussions with me and as stated on their website.
I made over 30 attempts to contact these 3 individuals
and they would not take my call nor would they return my
calls. I also tried emailing them and they would not
respond. In fact, 4 hours ago, I called Adam Ross.
He answered in a confused voice (I could tell by the way
he answered the phone). I said; Adam, is this Adam. He
replied with hesitation, yes- who is this? I immediately
said "Adam this is Tom from Oregon. He hesitated for
approx. 5 seconds and said "I don't know a Adam from
Oregon". I replied; Adam this is Tom and I got a problem
with the leads that you sold me!" He then said, "this is
not Adam, my name is Paul and you got the wrong number".
He then hung up.
I spoke with Adam enough times to be able to recognize
his voice. Adam, you need to "MAN UP" and face my music.
All I wanted from RAMP-LLC was to stand by their product
and credit policy. In fact, I was willing to work with
them to hopefully perfect this lead generation concept.
I am not angry with Adam Ross, Stephanie Boyd, or Ron
Stevens. I am just disappointed. They took a very viable
lead generation concept and tainted it. I speak for
myself in saying that I would have paid 10 times as much
as they charged for qualified leads. I hope this helps
the next person contemplating using RAMP-LLC as a lead
source. |
This
cheap tactical flashlights company
tries to bill itself as a US company but is actually a
Chinese
company that has sold dangerous products and batteries
that were recalled by US Consumer Product safety
Commission.
What they do not tell you is that they send mass SPAM

do not send SPAM

Some Electronics Shops
There are many fine
electronics shops in
Miami
Beach
selling camera and computers. However the high number of
complaints against many others as made to the
Miami
Beach
Chamber of Commerce makes it hard to separate the good
guys from the bad ones. That is why we suggest and
only suggest that you use either of the
2 Radio Shack outlets, Cartridge
World or the new Office Depot for your high
end computer, camera, printers, electronics needs unless
you really know what you are doing. Trust Us! We
live here!
Steve Schwanger
of
ineedadvicenow.com
It has come to my
attention that a company called ineedadvicenow.com is
run by a guy that does not use his real name.
Steve Schwanger who is really Steven Olswanger.
Steven
Swanger AKA Steven Olswanger, solicits by
sending SPAM or SPAMMING web forms to try to get you to
buy a sponsorship on his site by insinuating a veiled
affiliation with another entity e.g.
(Your ad will appear on WSVN or Sun Sentinel etc.)
This guy, Steven Swanger, real name Steven Olschwanger,
Who my online research suggests may be someone you would
not like to do business with.

http://www.ripoffreport.com/drug-manufacturers/steven-mark-olschwan/steven-mark-olschwanger-kenn-fm84f.htm
The deal in my opinion
works like this... Swanger buys Google PPC ads and Google allows the buyer to
place them on certain web sites you pick as well
as geo target etc from Google ad words. You can do this.
He re-sells this as a subscription deal sponsorship on
his own site implying in a roundabout way, some
sort of affiliation with an entity (Last time it was
Channel 7 now it is Sun Sentinel) and runs your ad or his
ad for his site there for a couple of clicks by setting
a low Google budget and pockets the rest. Your hard
earned dollars may buy you 1 click if you are lucky.
-
The mere fact that he does not use
his real name is a tip off in my opinion.
-
No
legal entity or real world contact info is on that
site.
-
Uses PayPal for Payment.
There are a few reputable PPC management companies but
many are rip offs. This ineedadvicenow.com in the opinion of this writer, is a total waste of your money.
Reputable companies do not send SPAM or SPAM web forms to sell advertising.
Never buy any Internet advertising where you cannot see
actual clicks and control them to the greatest extent
allowed.
Stay away from this creep no matter what
is my personal advise and opinion. M Johnson 3/16/2011
State Farm
Insurance
Tried for yet another premium increase
over 40% after being denied an over 60% in 2008.
All that just before they leave the State of Florida for
storm coverage. Instead of providing the service they
are supposed to provide they just seem to want to give
good folks a hard time. It is my opinion you should not
use State Farm for auto insurance, storm insurance, or
any kind of insurance coverage. -Mark Johnson
