I Was Scammed by DataEntryPortal.com

Michele, an I’ve Tried That reader and watchdog, furnishes today’s warning.

I need to tell you about the biggest scam I have ever seen. The site is http://www.DataEntryPortal.com

If you want to see a scam to its fullest, this is it. I paid $57.00 and all I got was some links to other Data Entry companies that you have to pay more money…That was it! I could have found the same content and more by doing a search on Google for “Data Entry Jobs” So I contacted them because they show a “Risk free Guarantee” on their site which is the only reason I would have tried it anyways. BUT, when I requested a refund they said to read the fine print of their “Terms of Use” which states no refunds. Very deceptive advertisement. I see why they would not give the money back because if you see what you get for $57.00, they would have 100% of their customers demanding refunds.

So what does a “Risk Free Guarantee” mean when the real policy is “No Refunds?” It means that you are guaranteed to take a risk, and the guarantee won’t cost you anything. You know how you can pay extra for an extended guarantee on your car or anything you buy at Best Buy? Same concept, except this guarantee is free. Get it? “I guarantee you’ll take a risk! This guarantee costs you nothing!”

Or something. Sheesh. Thanks for the warning, Michele!

  1. I was scammed by a guy in Holland
    http://www.abcdatasolutions.com

    Don´t buy anything there.
    It wasn´t much.. Of course I can use the information for other things…. but it was not was I was looking for.

  2. o God if i were seen this sight before becoming a user as dataentryportal. i am sure that i didn’t become prey for $57
    o alas

  3. Hi alvi and joe, I am at the edge of scam by Data Entry Portal,are you a member of this ? could you please contact me ? i wanna talk with you….thanks

  4. yes dear Irishceltic i am regular member of dataentryportal.com after paying $57

  5. hi alvi! wat happened after paying $57? how true that they’re going to pay you? pls tell me about what happened because i am planning to join it…

  6. I had done a lot of researched and lost my $57 for nothing, they just give you bunch of links and you need to pay them to join them, data portal is absolutely a scam and they are listed in FTC scam list…I had joined http://www.surveynew.com 3 weeks back and they are a lot better and being honest as compared to many scams online, check out at http://www.surveynew.com Good luck!

  7. Hi, anyone worked for http://www.surveynew.com? Is it scam

  8. I am a member atleast they didnt spam me yet, scam too hard to say!

  9. I had joined data-entry portal few months back paying $57. But, shocked to find it is a very big scam and a very big fraud site. Hence, I advise others not to join. Vehement action must be taken against them.

  10. DataEntryPortal is a real scam. They just put some links and some websites just for fun to get 57usd. You get nothing from this web. I asked for refund and they refused.

  11. I guess christina works for promotion of http://www.surveynew.com/
    and so is promoting the site.
    Dont go at all for these data entry jobs. All are hopeless.
    Christina plz give proof of u nt gettin scammed.
    dont misguide ppl.

  12. Not misleading ? I had tried both SurveyNew.com and data entry portal however, data entry portal turned out to be a scam artist work whereas SurveyNew.com more or less same as data entry portal but better…proof not required unless you see for yourself and I am promoting nothing…everyone have their own opinion. Thats upto to you. As they say “Wise men learn more from fools than fools from the wise”.

  13. I am not sure whether surveynew.com is a scam or not.But i just felt that they have no intention to give away the Toshiba laptop for the promotional offer.They just use it to attract members from joining it!

  14. They said had that offer for 30 days and I joined and waited for morethan 90 days…They had never delivered!…I had sent not hundreds but thousands of emails to their customer support center and finally arrived their laptop…guess what! it look like a “used laptop”…this laptop can be use only for my kids to play video games on it…Period

  15. So it’s obviously Surveynew.com is a scam.They just deliver the used laptops to the selective members only(the member who are annoyed them much).Second thing is,i found the state code of the office phone number they provided didn’t match the location of the office…so this is another sign of scamming.Actually i did send a several emails to them by asking them the delivery date of the laptop.But they never ever give me a specified answer on this issue…they’re trying to shift the responsibility to the concerned department each time(the department might not exist).Since i am not good email writer…especially in English writing,i think i just hopeless to get the laptop from them even if it’s the used one.So i would said,you are the lucky one…Christina!

  16. I am sorry to hear that Joanne, wish you all the best! and the laptop I received cant be used for anything, so it doesnt make any difference received or not.

  17. forget about the laptop. what about the job opportunity provided by that website??

  18. which of de data entry refferal site that es not a scam.pls tell me

  19. Hello folks!
    Ive received lotsa emails offering email processing jobs
    One is emailprocessingjob.com.
    Have any of you tried this programme?
    Please let me know!

    God bless yall!

  20. emailprocessingjob.com is a big scam! money aint free, keep far away.

  21. Thanks 4 de info Benjamin!
    i would be much obliged if u or anyone else can give more details of this emailprocessingjob.com scam! Cos it came to me by email wth an affiliate link. Thnx u!

  22. Wanfenstein, I never reply to spam ads as a matter of principle. If you got an email you didn’t ask for that included an affiliate link, it’s spam.

    The url alone is also a clue that you’re being misled: an email processor job?? Emails are processed automatically be computers.

    It’s probably another “get paid to read junk mail” program. You can earn a couple of US$ per hour doing it…but you could earn more than that by standing on a busy street corner holding a tin cup in your hand.

  23. So yes Joe is 100% right, since this site had been highlighted in scam list, you no longer need details. So make sure you understand this…”Two eggs are in a frying pan and one says to the other, “Gosh it’s getting hot in here.” The other one screams, “Oh my god, it’s a talking egg!”

  24. can anybody email me the complete list and links of companies that are refferred by dataentryportal/inetfirm/others-so-called site
    at neaz_mahmud_iub@hotmail.com

    Thanks in advance

  28. http://www.work-from-home-data-entry.net is 100% scam con artist piece of work or you can say a HOAX/Threat, their website is a 9th grader built worth nothing. Its always wise to ask here before you join your other neighbour victims community of a scam site.

  35. Dear fellows,

    Thanks for your comments. Otherwise I would have fallen into a trap. Anyway. should see http://www.work4idioma.co which is a japanese company looking for people. They charge you nothing. Looks like genuine. I cannot join them as I am not relly qualified for the job

    best wishes

  36. About Surveynew.com, they are a scam big time.

    I joined back in April wand was linked to other sites that needed more money to join.

    The real problem is getting back my refund. They have refused to give it back after the 3 months.

  37. I had been a member for period of morethan 7 months or so, cant remember when I joined surveynew.com, they do have a decent list of paid survey sites but earning $50-$100 a month is rediculous, where is the richness they had promised? the good part is the google adwords software include in their package that helps a lot if you are setting up a professional adword account. I joined them thinking would receive a laptop as a loyal servant/customer being good to their company, but after nagging them for a century, they sent me a 90’s model toshiba laptop. Scam hard to say, They do advantages and disadvantages of being a member if you put some effort to their opportunity but I think it work mostly for US and Canada residents. Suggestions: dont join, it will not make you rich! you may join, if you still believe in earning $50-$100 whole month work out, I doubt $100 would keep a human alive for a month. Its upto to you! And please please dont go not even near to dataentryportal.com, its a weird alien leech to suck up blood from any moving creatures.
