This place is CLEARLY, a scam. I purchased 100 referrals for $96.00 back in November 2007.
Never got them. And now they don't even want to talk to me about it anymore, like I'm the
scammer.
I posted a thread in their forums regarding my referrals issue from back in November
and they DELIBERATELY deleted it.
Click images to enlarge, so that you can see for yourself the proofs:
My account as of today, 02-27-2008:

I SUCCESSFULLY got a response from them back in November, but after that no more. Support was inexistent ever since.

My Proof of Payment for the 100 Referrals via Paypal

Save your money and don't contribute to their "GET ME A LEXUS" Fund!
Don't join this PTC! I have no choice now, but to take a loss of $96.00 as
Paypal only gives you 45 days to file a claim, which is BS, in my opinion.
I never got what I paid for. Until I get what I paid for, I should have all
rights to file a claim. So in a way, Paypal is in the scam business as well.
They already made profit on the fees, so forget about the customers.
The customers ain't NOTHING! :(

yes it was discovered that the owner is most likely a 13 year old and he came into a popular forum and lied pretending to be a member who apparently "stumbled upon a great looking site" ::) ::)
i have been paid one time from there, i doubt i will ever see any thing else from them, that site turned into a total JOKE after 1 month of being open!
your right th is is a site that scams half the people and pays the other half to shut them up and keep them promoting it ::) ::)
LYING LITTLE KID ALEX HAWKE
im going to report them to alertpay just for the hell of it and tell them hes underage and hes scamming people.
-
[EDIT: 02.27.2008 - 4:52am EST]
It appears like he lives with someone with the first name
starting with the letter "R." So the phone number that
he has listed on his accounts are likely his cell phone number.
Kids nowadays have cell phones. So it's still possible that he
may be a spoiled 13 year old kid. Then his parents can go to
jail then. More investigation is still needed, though.
Who is this "R" figure?

====================================================================================
He's not under age. You can call him if you want to!
Look at the information I googled up! Hahahaha!
I guess I can say, I am a skilled-googlesman. Hahahaha!
What if we turn his ass into the local authorities in England?
Would his ass get jailed?

;D A simple whois search reveals all this... No need for a skilled googlz search :P. Anyways thanks for the update we will now add the site to our scam list. I dont know if the local authorities would do anything about this otherwise icashout would already be locked up somewhere.
-
[Edit] Whois.net only shows Paid.nu & Hawkecode.com
Netsolutions only showed Hawkecode.com
I guess you're right. I just had a hard time finding it before
when I looked on Godaddy's Whois. ;D
Godaddy sucks, but I guess Danica Patrick compensates it
for them. So they don't suck as much then. Thanks to DP!
======================================================================================
Try it then. A simple Whois search won't find this information if he has it privatized through a 3rd Party.
The Whois on Godaddy.com won't review this information. ;)
I just found the first letter of the name of someone who might be his guardian if you check my edit from up above.
-
Everything you found right here
http://whois.domaintools.com/paid.vg
Anyways just letting you know...
Thanks for the proof of scam 8)
-
so r.hawke is a relative or guardian?
because alex hawke is the kid/guy that owns paid.vg
i still think alex hawke is a damn kid...LOL..i mean they even had a bunch of kids running their live chat... LOL
-
LOL probably 15 is my estimate. Almost all these sites with useless support and scamming users are run by children.

Best way to find out is to call. It should be about noon in good ol' Mother England right now.

;D ;D ;D Let us know if you call him and what his parents do when they find out about his little online ponzi scheme.
-
I still don't think he's a kid.
Dude is selling programs that you can get for FREE on eBay.
Maybe we should all tag-team and report his ass on eBay as well,
for profiting off of freeware.
BASTARD!!!
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/HawkeCode
He's likely using the money that he scammed off of us to fund
his eBay store which costs $15.95/month and to buy stuff that
little boys enjoy playing with.
At least, he's got an entrepreneurial mind. He's making money off
of stupid, A-dults. ;D
-
Well a lot of the adults tend to follow forums that allow kids like this to promote their site. That is why we only allow sites with owners above the age of 18 to promote their site here.
-
It's Alex, alright! I right-clicked one of the images and sure enough, it says, "Hawkecode.com/ebay/"
Yet Hawkecode.com, the site itself is dysfunctional. So he's only using it to host his images.
-
here is paid.vg blog ;D this proves mr.alex hawke is a little liar,....now read this , doesnt this just scream "little kid" at you? LOL
http://ptclatest.blogspot.com/2007/10/finally-what-i-am-looking-for.html
by the way i just rememebred about this blog,.....click the hits4pay link on the right and look at the name of the affiliate,..also click the adbux link and look at the referral url for it,..this proves that paidvg. here is pretending to not be paid.vg in this blog..... ;D ;D
LIAR LIAR LIAR LIAR MR ALEX HAWKE ;D ;D
i like how he states in his article that he has contacted the admins
quote from alex hawke
"I have contacted the admin and the good people there say that I can receive the latest info first. I have already bought some advertising there and hope to continue to. I will keep you posted on any developments."
but you very well may be right he might be of age since his paypal was a business account, but thats easy when you have parents with paypals ;D
its just whenever i see blatent lying from an admin trying to pretend hes not the webmaster of a site...it makes me wanna slap them and makes me think they just littlekids....
i mean thats pretty sad that hes blatently lying like an 11 year old there trying to get people to join his program
and of course there the fact that he came into one of the most popular ptc forums back then and pretended to be a clicker who "found a unique site" ::) ::)
-
i have posted a comment

HEHE Nice! Stalky did you call his parents yet?
-
Really, i can't believe it. ???
If this it's true, please, let it know, because i'm just going to buy premium and referrals, i hear that it was a scam, but the site look's good and i didn't care, but now, i know, and i believe you.
so thanks a lot... :D
-
Hi.
What about free members?
Do they still pay? I'm like half way into the minimum payout.
I wouldn't buy referrals / upgrade until I get paid at least 3 times!
-
As far as payment goes, I noticed on PTCTALK.com that there are ppl
that are actually getting paid. But as far as REFERRALS go, whatever
you do--STAY AWAY FROM THOSE!
My $96.00 loss is a proof that you will never ever see it.
-
The people who are claiming that they have been paid on ptctalk are probably Alex Hawke himself, because we know they allow scammers to do this.

yes thousands of times it has happened,..they get their buddies to go in there and post screenshots of payment... ::) ::)
paid.vg has paid me one time,..and they paid me rather quickly after requesting,....but its also becausehe knew i was the highest poster at ptctalk... ::) ::) ::)
scammers watch ptctalk,....they manipulate the little noobs,...then the little noobs go and manipulate everyone else.....
...disgusting.....
-
Why don't you talk to their live support, you might get some help then.
-
I doubt that they will ever be online, or they probably have kept a bot to reply.

Hi this is Shar77, I am really surprised about what is being said, about this sitePaid Vg, I have been a member since Nov 16/2007. I became a Premuin member on Dec 16/2007, I only have 15 referrals on the site, which I did get right away, and by know means am I any friend, fo Alex, I am just a normal person, that has been scammed so many times, I Hate to say anmore, but I have to say, I was paid once at Paid Vg, 25.00, so will keep a watchful eye open, and see if I ever get paid again, hard to believe a person that young could be runnin this site, unreal, it has so many ads, but I guess that doesnlt mean anything, but I was paid, thanks bye
-
lol
Bye :D
-
I just joined this paid.vg for exchange :-\
-
Yes they have this PaidPot - I used my internal earnings (Over a month ago) to buy tickets as I know I am not going to get paid... very sad
I was also openly told my a Mod at another popular site that he is only 16!! This really is such a shame... young kids are ruining this industry for adults who are ill or on disability trying to earn some extra cash for meds etc. I know from years of experience that many people in the PTC/PTR industy are just trying to get by and have little or no money to invest - these kids are nothing but spoiled rotten smart rich brats who will no doubt end up in jail later in life!! :-\
-
its true that underage people owning sites is wrong but them earning on a PTC is not, am also a kid and can assure u what ever success that i have gained is without any support from my parents since am not really rich.Dnt think ill end up in jail ever.
Its sad but true that all kids who own sites are mostly scammers and i really do feel sad for the disabled or the needy people who get scammed, but people should really be cautious and to not trust every site, i really feel its a stupid thing that people do when they invest 100s of dollars in a PTC just cause its famous.These type of sites are a lesson for all of us.Always invest small amount of money in a site.
-
These type of sites are a lesson for all of us.
Bravo. Karma for you :D
Always invest small amount of money in a site.
Yes, best choice: small amount on a few sites: the risk is shared then... (Can't give you Karma twice, lol). ;)
-
just gave karma to all 3 of you (noorish, ragnarok, BRL )lol ,great statements ;)
-
yes you have to be lucky.
Ive been paid ones and now waiting.
dont think it will come but I will keep waiting
-
LOL
I have a 95 $ pending payment...
If I receive it, I'll let you know... And Marianne: I'll send you flowers! :D
-
script.vg
Alex Hawke is trying to sell a script. Cant be trusted.
-
lmao! alex has deleted his blog :D ;D :D guess he got tired of all the threatening comments being left there ;D ;D
-
I wonder if the new "Paid.vg look-a-like" sites' owners bought the script from him... ::) >:(
-
would you be referring to earn3? ;D
-
would you be referring to earn3? ;D
lol nope had to build this baby from the ground up, script and layout are custom.
If I bought the script from Paid.vg maybe Alex would stop sending me hate mail ;D
-
Ah geez dam sale script template even looks like Paid.vg, dam you Alex now there are gonna be 100 sites like Paid.vg and Earn3 arggh
Oh well at least his script blows, anyone take a look at the admin panel, awful...lol
-
are you using the yourownbux v3 admin panel?
-
the script uses a full custom admin panel.
