This scammer advertises aggressively, including nationwide posts on craig's list, luring writers with promises of "high-paying writing jobs" up to $120 per hour.

The website, at writing-jobs.Net And possibly other urls) is very slick and the pitch is appealing: pay only $1, for a one-week trial, after which there will be monthly recurring charges of $47 to your credit card. But if you cancel before the week is over, you will not be charged anything more than the $1.

It seems that the username (5102558) and password User041685) are the same for everyone.

Oh, yes: before completing the registration process, there is a very clever and hard-sell upsell/addon, for another $47 per month, which i passed on.

After registering with credit card info and entering the website, it quickly becomes obvious that the website is largely worthless. The promotional copy leads you to believe that the site performs an aggregator function, pulling together job opporunities from multiple sources, which can be easily accessed and searched. In reality, what you end up with is several links to other sites, largely worthless and difficult to search.

As soon as i discovered this, i sent an email to the id provided, [email protected] //, to cancel the service. I requested confirmation within 24 hours but never received it. One week later Surprise, surprise), clickbank charged my card for $47. I had to waste about half an hour of mine but i did finally succeed in getting the $47 charge refunded from clickbank and canceling the recurring charge. The representative said that "glen anderson" never reported the cancellation with their system.

The fact that this was a clickbank affiliate program was a signal that it was a scam but i didn't find any reports on this site or elsewhere, so i proceeded on the basis that it might be legitimate and that i could always dispute the charge if "glen anderson" did not honor his guarantee.

Obviously, what "glen anderson" counts on is the "numbers game" aspect of his scam. Even if most people dispute the charge, he still laughs all the way to the bank, collecting his ill-gotten gains from those who for whatever reason do not dispute the charge with clickbank. And so he perpetrates his fraud, with the aid of clickbank. And let's not forget about the first dollar: if x thousand people a month pay one dollar, that's x thousand dollars monthly, based on a misleading promotion.)

We all have the power each day to do what we can to help make the world a better place. Shame on "glen anderson" for doing exactly the opposite. This is selfish and evil. And shame on clickbank for aiding and abetting "glen anderson."

Caveat emptor: let the buyer beware. You have been warned.
