12x12instantly turned to scam instantly

March 18, 2008 - 3:37pm | author: fairyjadoo | |

An autosurf program which called 12x12instantly was launched in December last year has started to give multiple problems to members as well as red signs has arisen since beginning of this month.

At first the admin sent an update that those inactive accounts for more than seven days will be deleted. In order to avoid from being deleted, members must purchase upgrade units. The update was as below:

“INACTIVE ACCOUNTS WILL BE DELETED ALL ACCOUNTS THAT ARE NOT UPGRADED WILL BE DELETED! Every 7 days the system will filter out dormant accounts that hant upgraded or had a upgrade expire more than 7 days old.”

This action had made members pissed off because their withdrawals remain pending, yet the admin threatened them to delete their accounts if they didn’t upgrade. Why would members re upgrade when this scammer failed to resolve the pending payments.

As a result, some members complained that their account balances have been zeroed when they refused to re upgrade. The admin didn’t reply to support ticker when members addressed this problem to him.

Then, the admin sent another update that he promised to make refund to those who have upgraded recently. The update was as below:

“Members

I had no choice but to reset the site as the cash balances created more headaches and complaints than I could handle. I am truly upset and will refund all recent upgrades and you can start over. ...as soon as they are up you can get your cash no need send support tickets.

THANK YOU ALL

Skipper John”

However, as we can guess, the admin didn’t make refund to anybody until now and he didn’t send anymore update. The website is still up and running. When I looked at the statistics it was shown that:

“Received: $96852.01
Paid Out: $78421.92
Paid Today: $0.00
Referral Pay: $7203.24”

So, by calculating the total received minus total paid out minus total referral pay, this scammer managed to earn $11,226.85 for himself by scamming innocent people.
