There’s Nothing Fantastic About a Penny Auction Site That Rips You Off

Amanda Lee 1 comment

We’re hoping BidTastik’s makeover includes shipping items owed to bidders.

Penny Auction Bidtastik is gone down

Early in January a Penny Auction Watch member wrote us to ask if we had heard whether or not other bidders were not receiving items from the penny auction site BidTastik.com. The bidder asked,

“I was wondering if anyone else is having problems getting their Gift Cards shipped from Bidtastik? I won 2 on the 3 of Dec. and 2 on the 11th of Dec. and still have not gotten any of them. they have sent me a few e-mails saying that they will expedite and that sorry their e-mail was down and things like that but still do not send anything out. On fb it says they will ship within 2 weeks or shipping is free, which is a lie and also on their site it says 2 to 4 weeks which is also a lie. Thanks.”

It’s now February 12th and this bidder tells us that she has still not received any of her won gift card items from the penny auction site. Plus, that’s not all, the site has been offline and according to the message posted on their site “Bidtastik is getting a makeover. Hardwork in progress….”

On January 12th the site told her:

“Our shipping department will begin shipping on Monday. They celebrated the holidays with family. We are not a large company. We apologize for the delay. Thank you!”

On the 12th she told us:

“Hey I kept sending them messages and they sent me 1 package with tracking 3 days ago but it still hasnt came so I dont know what is in it yet. I don’t know if they sent me 1 card or all 4 of them i will post when it comes.”

Still nothing received.

“Nothin! No, cards in my mail box, no answers from e-mail or no answers from the phone calls that they never return. I just call it a loss and it is really sad but I am kind of burnt out on penny auctions anymore it is like their goal is to steal from customers not run an actual business anymore. So many of them popping up all the time just looking for a quick buck.”

It’s true. So many penny auctions have popped up since we started watching, bidding and reporting on penny auctions back in 2009. It’s really sad that so many of them – well, that ANY of them have been able to rip off consumers and get away with it. Though – watch out scam sites – not all of them do get away with it….

Take for instance the recent action taken by the Washington State Attorney General’s office to shut down scam penny auction site ArrowOutlet.com.

The bidder updated us today on her experiences with BidTastik and expressed her frustration:

” They take your money and send out false tracking to make you think it has been shipped and never nothing comes and the tracking number never ever moves from their hands. They are thieves!! They owed me 4 Gift Cards and would come up with lie after lie as to why they haven’t shipped and then when they run out that is when you get a fake tracking. Their site is down now! I thought it was odd that they take 2 weeks to a month to ship that gives them the time to keep you from doing charge backs on them. They had excuses all the time one was “their e-mail was down and they will ship out in 2 days” one was “we are a family run small business and we took time off over the Holidays to be with our family” and on and on. They should be ashamed.”

Beware of penny auction sites that don’t ship and shill bid. Get informed and post your experiences to warn other bidders by joining the Penny Auction Watch forum.

BidTastik states on their Facebook page, “Bidtastik! is the new & exciting penny auction website that is set to takeoff in 2012. We’re ready to provide great products & live up to great standards for our customers.”

Great standards would include actually shipping won items to paying customers.

Have you bid on BidTastik? What was your experience? Do you have more information on this penny auction site? Please share it with us.

If you have been scammed by any penny auction site please by all means file a complaint the the Federal Trade Commission and your state’s attorney general’s office.

Why Should You Be Cautious of Penny Auction Site ShopyBids.com?

“You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.” -Abraham Lincoln

Just a few days ago we received the following e-mail from a reader:

IP Address 190.107.142.194

Your Name:
	Steven
E-mail Address

	I found a new Penny Auction

I’ve found a new penny auctions site.

the link is: http://www.shopybids.com“

Check out ShopyBids.com and you’ll see a few very expensive penny auction items, all of which were and still are counting down simultaneously. Take the lineup right now, for instance, at 1:30 PM CST, December 20th, 2012 the following items ending are: a Sony digital camera, an xBox 360 gaming console, an iMac, iPad 2, MacBook Pro, Toshiba Satellite laptop, $50 gift card and penny auction for 150 free bids. Yep, all ending at the same time, all being bid up by a large number of bidders. Ok, so now take a look at the ended auctions and you will see that 46 have closed thus far including a Samsung Slim HDTV, iPhone, gift cards, MacBooks, iMacs, iPad Minis, another Samsung TV, more iPad Minis, Lenovo Laptop, Samsung Galaxy S smartphone, Chromebook, iPod touch, all very hot consumer electronics items. End prices – $16.48, $87.40, $113.46 (that’s 11k bids!), $112.32, for instance.

Just the sheer volume of top dollar items alone led me to have a few questions about this penny auction site.

ShopyBid Testimonials – Curious

First, take a look at the ShopyBids YouTube channel and watch two of the “bidder” testimonial reviews:

That ShopyBids site is absolutely awesome. You get free shipping, everything on there is so cheap! It’s great! I would recommend this to anyone because it’s not like the traditional auction sites. I absolutely love it [cheesy smile + thumbs up!].

The other video testimonial is from “Jordan” who says, “Hey guys my name is Jordan and I found this site a couple of days ago and it’s called ShopyBids and is it ever amazing. ShopyBids is an auction site that has no limits and free shipping everyday. It is a secure site and probably the best auction site I have ever seen. I would definitely recommend ShopyBids to you guys, thanks.”

Gee, don’t those “reviews” seem phony to you?

Fiverr Makes Fake Reviews Easy to Come By

Pretty sad what one will do for a dollar, make that $5. That’s right. Have you heard of Fiverr? Fiverr.com is a website that allows users to offer and purchase “gigs” for $5… And there are Fiverr users who can read, have a webcam, and read a script and say just about anything a gig purchaser asks of them for $5.

Why do we think that ShopyBids.com employed two Fiverr users to create the above mentioned “reviews?” Well, we don’t have to think.

The first ShopyBids review was done by the user jjkaczor on Fiverr.com, see: and she states, “I will make a video of myself promoting your website or product. I would like to know all about your website or product before I can feel comfortable making it the best and most convincing to help you. My video will be no more than 30 seconds long so I’ll get right to the point to promote what you need!” under her gig I will make a video testimonial for your website or product for $5.

~~Coincidentally~~ “Jordan” is Fiverr user thecartoonman who in his gig description for I will do a casual or professional video testimonial for your product or company for $5. states, “I will make a casual, or professional looking testimonial for your product or company. The video I send you can be used for advertising on your website or anything you would like.” Again, for a mere $5 Jordan will do this for your company.

Now take a look at what was said in the review/comments section reviewing both of the two who do fake reviews by fiverr user kirehardwell.

Now, scroll back up and take a look at the e-mail address of the reader “happy user” of ShopyBids.com… kirehardwell @ gmail.com. Coincidence?

“kirehardwell created 2 weeks ago

Excellent video! I hope to be able to earn points in shopybids by this video! Thanks!”

Oh really?

So here it seems kirehardwell is posing as if he were a customer of ShopyBids.com who bought a fake testimonial review to submit to ShopyBids to get free points.

Interestingly enough, kirehardwell left a review for jjkaczor’s gig too,

“kirehardwell created 3 weeks ago

Excellent Video!! Amazing Work!! Thanks!

Seller’s feedback:

Thank you so much for the kind review. I appreciate the direct instructions! ~Jessica”

See the full page screenshots of both of these gigs to see where kirehardwell left these comments: click here & click here.

So… Looking at just the bidding patterns, their usernames, and sheer number of bidders it also leads us wondering whether or not the bidders are totally legit, real paying customers… This brings us back to YouTube, take a look at this video posted by YouTube user kirehardwell with a screen capture of the penny auction site entitled “The autobidders do not work.”

What are autobidders?

The short version… A feature added by less-than-honest, unethical, shoddy, looking to make a quick buck, penny auction software developers to either 1. “be an intelligent investment protector,” “business bodyguards,” and used by dishonest individuals who see penny auctions as an outlet to exploit less than susceptible consumers, delivering nothing but false promises, fake items and laughing all the way to the bank. Don’t think penny auction sites do this? Many do and have and still will continue to.

Gee, so why would kirehardwell be posting a YouTube video showing the backend of ShopyBids.com and showing us that the autobidders DO NOT WORK? A cry for help… “Please Check Autobidders!!” He writes on his notepad (note the language of the computer is Spanish). Note the text in the screencapture on the autobidder page: “Autobidders or test-bidders to mimic real-life users” Watch the video and you’ll see how easy it is for shopybids (or anyone using this penny auction script (and others)) to add fake bidders to their auctions.

shopybids-freelancer-email-scam http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTq2s-41Yug

Noticed how kirehardwell has freelancer projects affiliated with penny auctions too?

Oh yeah, by the way, e-mailed ShopyBid lastnight via their contact form on their website and check out the IP address of the person that e-mailed me back?

190.107.142.194 – the identical IP address to the person who e-mailed us alerting us about this penny auction site (see above). Location: San Pedro Sula, Honduras. Again, note the Spanish language in the notepad in the above video capture?

Would you bid on ShopyBids.com?

ShopyBids you are officially inducted into the Penny Auction Watch Hall of Shame…

Threats Made and Charges that Consumers Were Not Aware of Yet Ziinga Still Going Strong

Amanda Lee 4 comments

A few months back we made a very interesting discovery about the penny auction site Ziinga.co.uk, a very disturbing finding that seems to suggest a correlation between the site and the site’s management/development company, evidence which we believe appears to suggest shill bidding.

Take a look at what we found: Does This Indicate Questionable Bidding Practices on Ziinga? Ziinga.com / Ziinga.co.uk

Today we came across a news segment from back in July of this year by the New Zealand news outlet TV NZ Fair Go. The news segment, A Zinger from Ziinga features the experiences of one bidder who states that she was charged for a three month membership to the penny auction site for a monthly cost of $120, a hefty fee that she was unaware of when she registered. Many other Ziinga users stated that they later found unauthorized charges by the penny auction site, others said that Ziinga required photo ID scans to verify identities.

The user cancelled her credit card only to receive what she said were threats from the company of a fraud investigation including a Google image street view of her New Zealand home. Watch the news segment: http://tvnz.co.nz/fair-go/zinger-ziinga-video-4986949.

Fair Go, as we have also found, states that the penny auction site is registered in Malta, with a call center in the Philippines.

The media asked Ziinga whether or not the items actually existed they replied that there were images on their website of happy customers who have won items, but have yet to furnish the news outlet with an actual satisfied customer in New Zealand.

Registration is stated to be free, BUT by registering consumers are agreeing to the following terms as found on Ziinga’s website today, 12/18/12:

“Eligibility

In order to participate at Ziinga, you must be at least 18 years of age. Ziinga employees and their family members are not eligible to participate.

This verbiage only leaves us asking questions. Who is LouieMiranda, why did he win so many items? Why is he in the Phillippines? And why does he share the same name as an employee of Larventech? In fact, a Mr. Louie Miranda according to his LinkedIn profile is the Senior Software Engineer at Larventech, Inc, owners of the penny auction site Ziinga.

Registration

Ziinga reserves the right to limit the number of users per household. Users must not provide false
information. Accounts are non-transferable.

When selecting a user name, the user is subject to choosing a name that is not in any way offensive, indecent or derogatory. Additionally, a user may not select a user name that is misleading or advertises other websites. Ziinga reserves the right to change or delete user accounts that violate these conditions. It is solely the responsibility of the user to ensure that their password is kept confidential. In most cases, the user shall be liable for all activities that are undertaken using their account. Any misuse of the account may result in the user subsequently banned from participation on Ziinga.

You may cancel your account at any time by sending an email to info@ziinga.com.

Paying Members

Platinum membership comes with a flat membership fee of £ 59.99 every month.

All platinum members enjoy value added benefits:

Extra bids for bid package purchases

Daily Bid Agent

Once you become a paying member, you can review the benefits and the price of your membership by going to “My Account”.

You can always cancel your membership by emailing into info@ziinga.com. Remember to include your username.

All Platinum memberships come with a 3-month binding contract. Customers who breach the 3-month binding contract will be charged a cancellation fee of £ 35.00. Note that cancellation of the contract will void any free promotional gift offer.

As part of our 30-day return policy, refunds must be claimed within 30 days after the date of sign up. However, users may only be entitled to a subscription fee refund if they have not used any of their membership benefits (cancellation fee applies). If the member has already received a free promotional gift from Ziinga, that item must be returned to Ziinga’s return address in an unopened condition. Once Ziinga receives the item and all requirements have been fulfilled, Ziinga will process the refund request immediately.”

The BIGGEST problem and drawback to penny auctions and the reason why they will never ever be successful or wildly accepted by consumers is the FACT that so many of them can EASILY cheat consumers, but can they totally cheat without any recourse?

No. Not all of the sites that have scammed consumers have gotten away with it. In fact government agencies going as far up the chain as the Attorney General in a number of states, the SEC and the FTC are aware and have been involved in shutting a few penny auction sites down. See The SEC Shut Down Zeekler and ZeekRewards.com MLM Penny Auction $600 MILLION Ponzi and Pyramid Scheme, Washington Attorney General Steps Up to the Plate Holds Shill Penny Auction Accountable, are just two examples of this.

Have you bid on Ziinga? If so, what have your experiences been on this penny auction site?

Please post your review in our comments section and join us in the Penny Auction Watch Forum to discuss Ziinga and all penny auction sites.

One Ziinga user recently posted to our forum stating, “I’ve read many stories on various sites and all of them are very similar to my experience. I’ve emailed them and told them I didn’t sign up for the “platinum” membership – I’ve only “paid” for something I’ve won. They’ve replied that I should then cancel if I’m not interested. Which I did. Then the next email came informing me that I’ll be charged till March 2013. I’ve emailed my bank and said to them they should look out for any visa charges from Ziinga and don’t allow the transaction. But unfortunately we had a long weekend here and on this public holiday I’ve received a text message that my card was charged with R725.96. There was a hold on the amount which I’ve noticed and thought I would be in time to get my bank to stop it on the next working day but too late. I have no idea if my bank will be able to file a dispute and get the money back or not. Anybody else who maybe managed to get their money back? So far I’ve read that most people lost their money and no refunds were received. At first they were replying to emails within seconds. Now they don’t reply at all. (O and yes I’ve made screenprints and emailed to them where the auction was on 1sec for various bidders including my bids for a very long time – they’ve responded that I have a slow connection)”http://www.pennyauctionwatch.com/forum/penny-auction-red-flags/16891-ziinga-scam.html#post166075

Not only are Kiwis concerned and feel they have been scammed by Ziinga, we recently received the following message from a French reader:

“Vous m’avez arnaquez sur votre site ZIINGA.COM, j’ai déjà prévenu ma banque de vos transactions frauduleuses je vous ai dénoncié sur intenet, je communiquerai sur votre escroquerie sur tous les réseaux sociaus, vous j’avez pas honte aujourd”hui où tellement de gens sont dans la merde vous insistez encore plus”

Which when translated by Google reads, “

You have swindle me on your site ZIINGA.COM, I already prevented my bank of your fraudulent transactions I dénoncié you on intenet, I will communicate on your swindle on all the networks sociaus, you I today do not have shame aujourd \” where so much of people in the sh*t you are insist even more.” Oddly enough we’ve been receiving a higher number of e-mails than usual from consumers who mistake us for penny auction sites that scam them, prime example is this French e-mail.

What’s Up With For10Cents?

Amanda Lee 1 comment

If you can’t already tell, I’m frustrated.

I was frustrated when I started this site back in ’09 after I had what I thought was a pretty good experience on a site that actually did shill bid, then I was scammed by an individual who thought it was OK to steal money from unsuspecting consumers who had hopes of winning a non-existent new car.

Now enough about my experiences, you can read about many of them and stories from other bidders here…and in our penny auction forum.

I’m just frustrated and tired of penny auctions that continue to offer items when they have a backlog of items owed to consumers.

Really? Seriously? What credible business sells a product or service and then fails to deliver?

So here we are in 2012 and for10cents.com is still offering items, yet we’re still receiving e-mails that look very similar to what we’ve heard about users of for10cents back in 2010.

Then there was that time when For10cents wanted to advertise on this site, we collected payment, installed the ad creatives only to find out, that very same day, that an employee/intern whoever it was, affiliated with for10cents was posting shill reviews. Of course that same day I refunded their ad payment and removed the ads.

Cheating in business won’t get you very far.

This is not to suggest that the owners of this penny auction are cheating anyone, but this e-mail that we received today is very similar to the stories sent in to us and posted in the forum from other members of this penny auction site.

“For10cents penny auction I have won many items from that site and yet to have received anything but the run around and same phoney answer everytime. It’ll just be a couple days as our financing is almost complete. Same words same BS story. Problem is I won so much in such a short time that they owe me in excess of $15,000.00 in merchandise and i want something done. How are they able to keep this up without the state stepping in. I hate government involvement but when you could us them where are they. the first item won was on in june of 2011 and won 4 items that month and received everything like it should be. Then about middle of sept 2011 I started to win and never received anything again from them again, to this date they owe me for 43 differnt items to the tune of approx $15,000.00. I’d be happy to jump on board for a suit against them.”

And it’s not that the government is not aware of penny auctions. Back in 2008-2009 penny auctions were a new concept. They’ve since gone mainstream. Nearly everyone I’ve talked to has heard about penny auctions either from a TV commercial or Internet ad.

By now a few big agencies have actually intervened and shut down a few sites that were ripping off consumers.

How about the SEC? The FTC? Attorney General?

Yep, all three are aware of penny auctions.

The State of Georgia actually shut down and fined penny auction site Wavee.com who owed items to consumers and failed to hold an auctioneers license (required in Georgia).

Then recently there was the Securities and Exchange Commission who charged MLM scheme penny auction site Zeekler with fraud and an emergency asset freeze to halt a $600 million Ponzi scheme on the verge of collapse. The Florida State Attorney General as well as the Washington State Attorney General have both taken action against scamming penny auctions, and well, as long as consumers are going to be ripped off by shady operators I don’t think the government is going to stop getting involved anytime soon, and rightfully so.

So what about for10cents.com and why is it that if they are still not shipping items to users who tell us they are owed a significant amount of money and the site is still waiting on “investments” why is it that they still have items up for bid?

Though I have noticed that the value of items up for bid are not as expensive as they used to be with $25 gift cards being the majority item up today.

Why is it that they have told winners that they’ve had to remove their reviews posted on our site or risk losing their owed items? Take this bidder’s story as a prime example, she was owed $11k items. This was back in 2010!

Earlier this year a bidder told us he wanted to start a class action lawsuit, he hadn’t received several items from the site and for10cents e-mailed,

“We were informed by our investors that they need additional time to close their financing round from which we are receiving our funds. The delay is caused by the enormous amount of new banking regulations which require way more time and effort to complete such transfers as compared to the past. We will receive an update within next 7 to 10 days and we will inform you about the progress promptly.”

According to a message on the homepage, “For10Cents.com Featured on the Lifetime Channel – The Balancing Act TV Show! Click here to watch it.”

So what’s the deal For10cents?

Did TheBidShak.com Just Scam Bidders and Shut Down?

Amanda Lee 5 comments

Did you bid on the penny auctions at TheBidShak.com?

A few months back I personally purchased bids and tested out TheBidShak.com. I won a few gift cards and still had bids remaining in my account. I was surprised to find that they did eventually (after a month) ship three of the cards I won. I won a few more, but due to the long wait time in shipping and the inability to log back in my account I didn’t claim my other items, and they stopped responding to my support e-mails.

There was low competition, so it was quite easy to win the gift card auctions that this penny auction site offered. Perhaps they just lost too much money that they couldn’t afford to ship wins out so decided to shut down like many penny auctions do.

The message displayed on thebidshak.com is now the “this webpage is not available – the server at thebidshak.com can’t be found, because the DNS lookup failed.” message.

TheBidShak.com’s whois registrant is private, so finding out who ran thebidshak.com won’t be easy, but now may be time to file chargebacks if you had outstanding bids/items and have yet to hear from the penny auction site.

BidsThatGive Bid Ambassadors Club Member Shamelessly Steals Our Blog Content Passes Off As Own

Amanda Lee 5 comments

paw-bidsthatgive

Well, if I published a post every time something like this happened this blog would be a whole lot bigger. Yet another blogger, this time they appear to be either a marketer or someone affiliated with the new penny auction site BidsThatGive.com has taken Penny Auction Watch content.

The plagiarizer/content thief goes by “Cecil Wood” and the site that my article was shamelessly posted on, and even adapted to fit Wood’s fancy is:

http://www.hyprcastreview.net/2012/08/10/things-one-must-do-before-bidding-at-penny-auctions/

Note how they even changed the site name here from what I wrote to be bidsthatgive, linked to BidAmbassadors.com/CecilWood: “For instance, this Invicta Men’s Pro Diver watch has a stated retail price of $275 on the popular penny auction site BidsThatGive. We’re not saying they’re wrong to post the retail price, but if you decide to bid and go “all in” i.e. say you decide you really like this watch and want to win it and will spend say up to $175 in bids since the retail value is $275, you may want to rethink your decision. Amazon is currently offering the same exact watch for $78.40 with free shipping.”

They even replaced where I mention the Penny Auction Watch forum with an affiliate link for BidsThatGive.

From the BidsThatGive Bid Ambassador’s Club website:

“Welcome to the Bid Ambassadors Club

Creating Wealth while Transforming Lives

You are about to embark on the journey of your life!

Bids That Give, Where Every Bid Helps a Kid, has designed a unique and revolutionary Private Revenue Sharing Company and you can be a part of it by joining the Bid Ambassador Club to generate incredible income in less than 15 minutes per day and at the same time contribute to a worthwhile cause.

bidsthatgive-ambassador The byline even says the article was written by Cecil Wood. Notice the hotlinked images.

Then again, it’s been said that imitation is the highest form of flattery.

Have you bid on BidsThatGive.com? Is it a legit penny auction? Currently the penny auction is offering a HP Mini notebook, with a $25 Amazon gift card, and iPod touch ending within the next few hours.

CentAuction24 Appears to be Gone – Were You Scammed?

Amanda Lee 0 comments

Recently we posted about how one bidder of penny auction site CentAuction24.com has been waiting over 2 months for $1300+ in won items. Today, the site appears to be offline.

A reverse IP lookup for CentAuction24.com reveals at least 3 more penny auction sites on the same server as CentAuction24.com:

Acquireittoday.com, bidn1.com and bidsanitydeals.com. Could this indicate that CentAuction24.com’s operators are running more penny auction sites? Possibly.

When searching the registrant’s listed e-mail address we found it also beloging to “ Hannes Niid” on another site, wismark.com which is also currently down.

Is CentAuction24 gone? Was this penny auction site just set up for the sole purpose of scamming consumers?

Enough is Enough!

SmartBidderz is Back – Is It Legit or a Scam?

Amanda Lee 1 comment

Penny auction site SmartBidderz.com is back now after they were down for a few days after we reported on the alleged fake video review testimonial found on Fiverr and alleged proof of company shill bidding. Oh and get this, they’re still offering a new Audi and a new Cadillac Escalade and a new Suzuki, all of which are being actively bid on right now.
