Hi,

I am here to share my experience with RevenuePilot.com and tell webmasters to be aware cause this company is nothing but a sam. Here's how they do it.

Once their ads are live on your site and someone clicks on it, they redirect people to a survey ! No you are not dreaming, they redirect the person to a survey, where the person has to enter the keyword AGAIN and then REVENUEPILOT.COM dont pay you for the click.

This is BIG SCAM. I was advertising their ads on MIVA, GOOGLE and once i found out about the scam, here's the letter that i sent to them :

"First I would like to say that when I had a problem prior to this, you responded within an hour or so. I submitted this "Priority 2 - urgent" ticket on Tuesday, October 04, 2005 12:57 PM and you've just decided to contact me about this on October 06 at 4:36 PM, asking me "How do I know about this?".

About what? That you are scamming your publishers?

Let me make this plain and simple for you. We have been advertising on Google Adwords and Miva for many targeted keywords such as "mortgage refinance" - as can be seen via http://miva.com/us/content/search/us...&filter_pref=1. We have been PAYING to generate traffic to our site, for both promotional purposes and the possibility of ROI. We've also shared the site with friends and family and asked that they use our search engine to search the Internet - as opposed to using Google or Yahoo. They have no idea that our site is pay per click so they wouldn't just go out there and start clicking on ads. If they've used our site, they've done so at their own discretion.

One of our friends that actually checked out our site contacted me and informed me that he was not directed to a site that he selected, but to a survey that you apparently placed out there. When he used his browser button to back page, he stated that he was not being linked back to our site. This is how we found out about the problem. But we thought it was a "real" problem. So we submitted a ticket to you.

After getting your response, it's apparent that you guys have some process in place that is designed not to pay your publishers for the clicks that they generate for you. No wonder you advertise that you pay 60%. You probably pay 60% of 10% of the clicks. And to be honest with you, we are no longer interested in working with your company. Your practices are clearly as corrupt as many other companies on the Internet.

You can cancel this account immediately and since you are so hard up for screwing your publishers, please keep the little $30.00 or so that that you owe us. But don't get mad when we share our experience with RevenuePilot.com in the forums - which is where we discovered you in the first place.

Keep deceiving people because you are apparently doing a great job at it. "


So be careful not to support companies like that or you are going to loose a lot of money like we did.

Cyndy.

Thanks for warning everyone. I had my suspicions about them. I used them for a few days and canned them quickly after seeing results.
