Just to let everyone know I joined this site about 4 weeks ago. Since joining I was scammed about 4 times. After the first time you begin to pick up the signs. Anyway I made a complaint to their admin department and the email that came back was in really bad english and made no sense. I realised then that the whole site was a scam.

Please do not use this site, stick to something you know is real and safe. Unfortunatley they also have my card details now. So I am having to cancel everything at the bank. I am new to these sites and If I did not have my head screwed on it could have been much worse, so please people be aware and be careful.

Regards

Putting a fraud alert on your credit file is free of charge if you do it yourself, and it is not a bad idea to do it regardless of whether or not you are concerned about identity theft.
