ZoogBOO Gone Did They Have Skeletons in Their Closet?

Many weeks ago we moved reverse penny auction ZoogBoo.com to the red flags section of our penny auction forum after hearing numerous customer complaints. We had an uneasy feeling about them from the beginning,  but some users gave them the benefit of the doubt and tried them, now many are trying to get their money back. ZoogBoo’s ownership/staff came on our forum and when asked questions and faced with users’ suspicions ZoogBoo became very rude and called our members idiots.

Now ZoogBoo is gone.

One of our forum members was contemplating on purchasing ZoogBoo.  He changed his mind, here’s what he told us:

“When I was looking at buying the site, Jim let me play around on the admin panel for the night. I spent a few hours poking around in there, and I quickly realized they had been cheating/stealing/using shills. First off, it was supposedly a custom built site and it had a section for bots.  Furthermore, some of the most active “users” on the site had ridiculous names and addresses in their profiles. (Real example: Jane Smith on Main street!) I have tons more examples of why I know they were shill bidding.”

Well, there we have it, another penny auction site that was probably shill bidding. Discuss & read more about ZoogBoo in our penny auction forum.

Swipebidscs is without a doubt one of the biggest scam I have ever been involved with. They make you believe that if you give them your credit card you will be given (in my case 350) bids to try out ther site!!! If you like it after you try it your card will be charged $150.00. NOT SO they charge your card immediately and you are stuck SUCKER (thats me) JIM
