I created a couple of websites because I don't want others to go through what I went through....I documented what happened to me on one of my websites, and the seo company said that if I didn't take down the site, they were going to sue me. So I took down some information, but I still got comments from x-employees to the effect that what they did to me is what they do in general....The comany was once a big player in so. cal, or they still are...i don't know.

The websites are: www.seoincscam.com and www.seoscaminc.com the latter has consumer protection info in it.

Thanks for posting this...it is helpful

SEO money back guarantee traps

Here’s one I’ve fallen victim to, in fact I’m still in legal dispute with them and may well end up out of pocket by £6000 ($9000) in addition to the £3000 ($4500) already paid!

Top 10 positions or your money back.
You have to pay though for a start-up process and report plus the first 3 months as their reciprocal link building campaign “gestates”
In this time they got me a mighty 5 links. Needless to say site traffic and results were going down.
When I tried to pull the plug I’m told that in fact the contract I’ve signed (yes stupid I know) locks me in for 12 months. I can exist but only if I pay them for the whole remaining period!

So –

I can continue and hope that things improve. If they don’t I can claim back fees on those terms that are not in a top 10 position. During this time my site will stagnate.

I can sort the SEO by other means. But if I do this then as I am locked in to this agreement I will end up paying them under the terms of their performance based g’tee for work done by myself or someone else!

I can exit and pay them a lot for nothing.

I can get refuse and be taken to court – which is what is happening.

Full story here comments welcome!

SEO Scam Artist

Has anyone had any dealings with Shawn Richeson or www.clickanerd.com?

This guy comitted identity theft to steal two corporate domains away from our godaddy account and registered them in his name. He has demanded thousands from us to release them and when we refused of course he runs spam on these sites to the consumers telling them not to use us.

He has been turned over to law enforcement for various felonies now. This guy is fraud all the way
