Secret Agents Wanted
One thing is becoming increasingly clear to me and Steve: two guys can’t keep up with the sheer volume of money-making and money-saving claims online. We can point out a scam here and there, or show you when one or two programs can’t deliver what they promise. But we’re just two guys against hundreds and hundreds of questionable characters, each one bent on taking your hard-earned money from you. So we need your help.
We are looking for a few internet-savvy readers who can help us check things out. Here’s how it works:
- You send us a note telling us about the program you want to try.
- We pay for it and sign you up.
- You check out the program, try out the advice, and write up a review. (If you’re a good writer, you can do a guest post on I’ve Tried That. If you’d prefer, you can give us all your notes and we’ll write up the review for you.)
- If it’s a scam, you’re not out any money.
- If it’s a good deal, you pay us back for your entry fee and then the program membership (or whatever) is yours to keep. Get rich on us!
Is there a program that has intrigued you, but you just haven’t yet signed up? Become an I’ve Tried That Secret Agent! You can help put scammers out of business and might just make some money in the process. Note, however, that we won’t accept proposals for data entry jobs, programs already covered on I’ve Tried That, or programs whose URLs shout “SCAM!”
Contact us using the “Contact” link at the top of the page, and please include a link to your program’s Web site. We’ll choose a few winners and get you your Super Secret Spy Decoder Ring right away.
**Note: You must provide your own Super Secret Spy Trenchcoat.

Hey Guys, I actually bumped into your site because I was doing research on the “Winning in the Cash Flow Business infomercial” and I am pleased to let you know that your site helped me make a decision on that. I did purchase your e-book, too and I found it to be extremely helpful. I have found really good job leads since and am actively sending my resume to a couple of companies. However, I replied to this one that I found on craigslist and they contacted me back but they are charging a fee for the software, thats what they state on their site, can you guys please help me on this one.. It sounds legit and I did some research on the HUD site and it states ; “Other “tracer” companies are legal. But they do not represent HUD, and they will charge you a fee. You do not have to use a tracer to get your refund, if you are owed one” the link to this answer is : http://www.hud.gov/faqs/faqworking.cfm. The program I want to try is http://www.eaglesoftwareservices.com. I did find some forums in which it states that some of these programs are legit and some that say this is a rip off selling you old lists from HUD. I could not locate anything on I’ve Tried That.. Pls Help
Thanks in advance.

Fany, that software site has been down every time I’ve checked. How much is the software they’re advertising?
I’m disappointed that our job search techniques led you to someone asking you for money, but glad you found some other leads. We still maintain that no legitimate job will ask you for money, so I’m interested in looking at what Eagle Software Services is about.
What kind of job were you looking at when you were sent there?
Hi Joe, thanks for the response. I just went to the site and its up and running. Here is the link again. http://www.eaglesoftwareservices.com . The job is processing Mortgage refunds. Not rebates but actual refunds owed to people from HUD for insurance. Keep me poste, I defenitely want to know if this is true. I’ve found other numerous companies that do this and just a few negative comments but Im intrigued to know if this trully works.
Fany, are you applying to be a Secret Agent as explained above, or are you just asking us to check out the software and refund processing opportunity?
Yes, I want to apply to be a secret agent and provide you with all the scoop. Good or bad, and I understand that if I want to keep the service I will have to reimburse you guys for the money.
