I can't believe this guy is still selling this crap service.
His link wheel is so bad that when I tried following the wheel, I got a virus... WHILE CHATTING WITH HIM!!!. He told me the link was fine and to ignore the popup. He tried to convince me that the search engines would follow through even though it was a rel=nofollow link.
The site gave me a trojan virus which was so bad it required me to buy an external enclosure, remove my hard drive and clean it with my other pc.
I also asked him why one of the links forwarded to another site and not to my money site. He said it's the way he has always done it and that not all sites will have 2 links. This happened back in February and I have never responded perhaps out of shame. I was very stupid for following that link when I knew it was a bad link. I just trusted him. I also knew that links which are no-follow don't get followed, yet I believed that maybe he was right. Maybe things had changed. I admit, I was stupid.

Seo: yeah...for the backlinks
3:42 PM The sites gate the links
3:43 PM It is just normal with some of the PR sites
me: it does nothing for my site though, right?
Seo: Nothing?
3:44 PM Improvement?
me: it is not ****************
it will be a broken link, right?
Seo: It helps with ranking.....................thats the same way we have always done it to get results
3:45 PM This is the same standard template we have always used
me: really?
Seo: And the links get indexed...
almost all of the backlinks if not all
3:47 PM me: I have never heard this before.
But why does this site have only one link:
http://kickapps.oncapeweddings.com/mi33naplac3sh
3:48 PM Seo: Each site is supposed to have a link....
We added 2 to make up for any overseeing...
me: have you clicked on the link?
3:49 PM Seo: and between...we added extra backlinks i believe
yeah i did
me: it goes nowhere
Seo: it is showing up a warning sign ..
me: yes, how can that help me?
3:50 PM Seo: It redirects to wetpaint
me: click continue?
Seo: yeah...
3:51 PM And even without that....you anchor text and the achor link....is been seen by the bots
me: malware was found on wetpaint
3:52 PM Seo: It opens up here
3:53 PM Couldnt know why thats happening at that end

3:57 PM me: so what about the rel=nofollow?
3:58 PM Seo: That has always been...
3:59 PM Several people get over concerened about do follow and no follow links
As you can see see on the thread....we have ranked several websites with this same package
me: well mine has done abslolutely nothing
Seo: So, for us, it doesnt hold us back
4:00 PM me: I mistyped and seaid I ranked 18 when I ranked 9.
Seo: yeah....result is a funtions of competion
me: I am still at 8 or 9
Seo: If you competition is fierce, then probably you wnt see a result...
and like i said somewhere on the thread...link building is ongoing
4:01 PM For some sites...the linkwheels alone will rank them high
me: I know who they are and they are doing nothing
Seo: for some...the link wheels need to be powered by other link services
4:02 PM Let me give you an example....
me: It has taken you 23 days to respond to my concern. then you tell me gates are ok. then you tell me nofollow is okay
Seo: A client made a wheel from us....
me: and now i have a trojan virus
