I can't believe this shit is really happening?
How can somebody do something like this?
Isn't it enough you try to scam people but you try to screw their lively-hood?

All suddenly I got 25 pingbacks from lousy article categories like:

http://articleauthorize.com/
http://applyarticle.com/
http://advisorarticle.com
http://articlecomfort.com

Majority of these article sites are de-indexed by Google !!!!
What the hell you think is going to happen to people when Google spiders visit those Article Directories and see bunch of crappy spun articles linking to peoples sites from de-indexed sites?
(yes Google crawls de-indexed sites, I had around 100 ALN domain that got de-indexed and I Google kept crawling them time to time)

You also said that you would accept special non-English characters but that proved to be total bullshit too, and you even misspelled one of the anchor text miserably.

Delete those articles A.S.A.P please !
If you have little dignity in your body.
I dropped from 10 to 35 just because few of them got indexed, can't imagine what will happen when Google finds them all!

I asked you nicely yesterday on Skype and sending email to your support but they are still there...aggghg

Indeed! It's fucked up. But atleast you got spun articles, I got random articles that were not related in the slightest... Such a shame it's happened on my ecommerce site... should of known better!
 
Thank you for everyone who is offering free SEO services because of me. True people.

Thank you
 
Can a moderator OR ADMIN remove the negative itrader this scammer gave me?????




 
No one has lost any money. Every work I delivered was as stated in my thread. Also, everyone who is unpleased about my service will get refund on Tuesday (26 June) right after I will get the money from 2CO.
 
I will return all money on Tuesday 26 June. Can a mod close this thread till Tuesday?

It's a damn typo, they are scraped and poorly spun nonsense articles!
Shit man, did you also use it on your ecommerce site?

I normally dont order any SEO packages but I became desperate because I'm in need of money.

Yeah, I was a fool to do it, going to be a lot more careful in the future. Being 19 it's a lot of money to hand out, was a sacrifice. To know it's more than likely going to harm my site in the long run is heartbreaking. **I just deleted a huge paragraph as I was feeling sorry for myself.** Although as I say it's heartbreaking theres nothing we can do now. All I can do is deal with it and try to move on, create more content and hopefully some day i'll succeed.

Dude... I'm not a customer or anything here, but when something seems fishy, I guess I can throw my hat a bit, as I have a better understanding of how 2CO works.

1. Firstly, who in the world said you had to wait until Tuesday to refund? You can make refunds out of the funds available in your account. 'Assuming' you are unaware of this option, I am helping you with an attachment that would show you what you need to click and get this done. Just click on issue a refund and your job would be complete in 2 mins. I absolutely do not see a reason why you need to wait until Tuesday and process the payment paypal or another payment gateway.

2. 2CO holds 5% of your total billing as a rolling reserve for refunds/chargebacks. I guess those funds can be used for refunding your customers too.

3. Guys, once 2CO deposits the money in his bank account, getting a refund really might not be a possibility. I know for sure that you need not wait to process a refund! If someone is so unhappy and the OP has agreed to refund, you need to get your refunds processed before Tuesday, not after.

Portugalkix, since you are agreeing that there are funds in your 2CO account, I guess its fair that you start refunding right now and get some of your customers to vouch for you. You are only 17 and you don't want the tag of 'scammer' around your neck for the rest of your life. Whether Karma is a bitch or not, the internet is one for sure.

For BTB, Leith and everyone else who's come forward to offer free services, take a bow.. :)

I'll help reduce your burden a bit at least mate.. send me keywords for 5 articles.. blogposts/webpage content or whatever you need. I don't have a SEO thread here yet to offer something better, so this should help hold your ranks for a while :)
 
I used the service on a 2 month old forum after listening to his advice that it was completely safe to use. After I received the report I also saw that the articles were in no way related to u keywords and some of them were even articles about lingerie and Viagra. I am pretty sure these articles are going to totally fuck up my seo efforts for this site and there is very little I can do about it. I put a lot of work into my site and it sickens me to think that it is now going to be so much harder to rank my site.

Your lucky it's only 2 month old and just a forum, I'll swap you! I would advise to buy another domain and duplicate the website (obviously delete the old site after it's went over smoothly) Try to purchase an older domain name. If we get refunded invest it in a real SEO service. Sorry it's happened to you aswell. :(

I'm in the same boat as you so I'm not the best at given advice.

Wow. if I ever look up the word 'idiot' on the dictionary, I hope your face pops up. Who on earth would disrespect bk071 and BB after they have offered to help you for free. A lot of people in this forum would love to have been in your position. Also, BTB and bk071 and others offering free service for that fellow BH'er is what makes this forum so great and now I understand why BHW is the home of internet marketers. It's just a big family over here. Except for scammers like you portugal.

Revolate, If I had a SEO service in the BST, I would go out of my way to help you, but unfortunately that is not the case as I myself struggle with SEO. I hope you the best and hopefully you get your rankings back from the services that BTB and bk071 offered you. GL.

I have ordered from him as well few weeks ago and I did got my report but nothing has changed which he guarantee. I order the middle package.
Yes as Big buddy said keep 15 and refund the rest to all.
 
[h=2]portugalkix[/h]I asked you nicely to stop building those damn articles both here and 4 times over Skype but they just keep poppin up !
Are you seriously trying to fck up my rankings totally !
 
I have also been using 2Checkout for over a year now and I have very good experience and knowledge on it.

If I am right, it looks like Portugal is trying to wait until all the money hits his bank account so he can run away.

2checkout has a feature which ALLOWS YOU TO REFUND THE MONEY easily. I advice everyone who wants a refund to file a dispute. I do NOT see why the OP wants to wait until Tuesday.

Another thing you would want to do is maybe phone 2CO and let them know of the issue. They will definitely do something about this.

I will return all money on Tuesday 26 June. Can a mod close this thread till Tuesday?

IMO, keeping this thread open is better so that more people known what kind of a person Portugal is and to prevent any issues in the future.

I can confirm this... 2CO lets you refund ANY sale at ANY time without having to wait for Tuesdays or Fridays.
The excuse Portugalkix comes up with is lame and based on nothing but BS.

If you want to refund the money, just do it right away.

@BigBuddy : I've sent you a message regarding this.
 
I've just filed a dispute with paypal, not sure what will happen though. Hopefully other people have done the same.
