I contacted Andrew Burd from Las Vegas NV about a “business” via craigslist.

What. An. IDIOT.

AND a scammer. If you’ve been scammed by Andrew Burd, I encourage you to respond to this rip off report with your experience.

All he’s doing is scamming craigslist selling fake “businesses.” My attorney has done extensive research on him.

My attorney also found he has ZERO assets. He claims to live this extravagant life but a simple asset check comes up with a fat zero. He only has a single personal bank account.

His address is a tiny 500 ish square foot studio. It’s clearly a rental. Why does such a rich person live in a studio in the desert? Vegas is for poor people to live nicely for cheap.

 

So onto the scam. Lets pick apart his messages.

I am also launching my real estate software that I coded myself. It can make a few thousand a week and more if you hire employees. Id like
you to run both of my software programs and learn it so you can also hire/train/manage some cheap employees and have them run it too. I'm
looking for a few good people I can work with to make us both money daily. Let me know what you think. Thanks

 

THIS idiot can code? If this “business” is so great why don’t you grow it yourself? You claim to have all this money you yet you can’t even grow it yourself. Sounds like a real f****** idiot to me.

 

My skype is signatureandrew. The lowest price I can do is $5k to start and then $5k when you have earned $3,000 in revenue on the business.

 

His ad said $15,000 and he immediately went down to 5k.  Later he changed his mind and said it was still 15 grand but 5k up front. Oh wait…he has no assets. But, I'll get to that in a moment when I break-down WHAT exactly he's selling here (pirated software that he's stolen).

What is your email address. I will send you the contract and my wire info for the first $5k payment, then I will start setting up the business for you on your computer. It will take 3 days to set up, then another 3+ days for initial training.

 

Thanks

Andrew Burd

 

Okay. Lets see what this “contract” looks like.

http://i.imgur.com/ir9d1Wk.jpg

This sounds like it was written by a 5th grader.

This isn’t a real business at all. No legitimate person charges you money to purchase their product and takes money out of your earnings.

 

So I’m going to tell you what Andrew is selling.

Andrew Burd is simply spamming craigslist emails with advertisments for auto insurance. Sadly he leaked in his video a company called Integrate.com on his screen, which ANY person on the planet can sign up for (I did it myself)…and get that ever so great $7 for email and zip code he was bragging about. He must not really be working with any “big companies” because honestly who in a professional world would give such scum the time of day?

He’s also using hijacked software. I put ads on craigslist myself and was lucky enough to get someone who he had sold before. I had my tech team analyze the “software.” Not a thing was coded by Andrew Burd…. there was a e-mail software called interspire which is commonly used by spammers and costs a measly $500. He can’t even afford to buy a fresh license he just steals it. You’re paying $15,000 for a STOLEN $500 product.

Another detail you may have missed in the video – His YEAR TO DATE earnings with Integrate.com was only $800. He’s only made $800 with them this whole year? Pretty interesting.

 

If his “business” is so great, why doesn’t he just HIRE EMPLOYEES AND MANAGE THEM HIMSELF?

If you would like to contact me about my experience, my email is (((REDACTED))) . I will not hide like Andrew does.

 

I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE ANYONE WHO HAS BEEN SCAMMED BY MR. BURD TO CONTACT THE NEVADA DISTRICT ATTORNEY TO PURSUE WIRE FRAUD CHARGES

Still scammin

AUTHOR: Loren - (USA)

POSTED: Wednesday, December 23, 2015

H, my name is Andrew. I built and coded my own internet
business. The business is basically buying used electronics from
people over the internet. You use my advertising software to get
people to your website. You give them a quote through the online
system, then they ship you the product. You pay them about 50% of what
the product is worth only AFTER receiving it and inspecting it. You
issue payments via paypal or check within 24 hours of receiving their
item.

The website is: www.cashforelectronics.org

I am including my advertising software that I built, which will make
sure you consistently always have customers coming to your website.

You re sell the item on ebay or craigslist. The profit margin is high
because you basically double your money. You can buy a used iphone
from someone for $100 and re sell it for $200, for example. You can buy
several items per day from people. You can also have family and friends make
money with the business.

You can make several thousand dollars per month and its really easy work. It
doesn't require much time either. Its all online and from your house.
You could also have your family and friends run the business. You can
run it at any hour of the day.

This business includes:

1. The great looking website.

2. Advertising software and strategy to get people to your website daily.

3. 12 months of free hosting on my dedicated server. ($600 value)

4. Full set up, training and support from me to get your business up
and fully running.

I am selling the business for $10,000. I can offer financing. $5,000
down and $200 per month for 25 months.

You could scale the business to making over $1000 per day over time.
You can make a lot of money with this business.

I am selling it because I do not have enough time to run it. Let me
know if you are interested. Thanks!

Andrew Made GOOD! A happy ending...

AUTHOR: Loren Reder - ()

POSTED: Tuesday, February 10, 2015

Andrew and I have completely resolved everything. We never did business together. There are a lot of scams online, and I assumed Andrew was just another scammer trying to make a quick buck. Andrew and I have talked on the phone and I have seen that he is completely legitimate. After talking with Andrew on the phone, I would like to retract everything I said about him. He is an honest person and I am sorry for all the things I said about him.

Andrew's Lies Debunked Part....I forget

AUTHOR: Loren - ()

POSTED: Saturday, January 03, 2015

Dearest Andrew,

 

Keep in mind I did an asset check on you. You have NOTHING - you do not even have ten thousand dollars to your name. Not even 5.

 

-You don't own a house

-You don't have a car registered in your name (I thought rich people had cars and houses?)

-A comparable unit in your complex rents for under $2000 a month. Just about anyone could afford that....

 

Have you ever heard of the phrase "Champagne taste on beer budget?"

 

That is you!

 

 

You fund your delusional lavish lifestyle by scamming people and selling them garbage. Do I need to remind you that you are selling HACKED AND STOLEN/PIRATED SOFTWARE to people for 100+ times what its worth? 

 

Like I keep saying. For someone who's so supposedly rich - why do you need to sell your fake businesses to others? Why can't you hire employees yourself? Cause you're a broke, loser, scammer.

 

Do you have bank statements showing consistent revenue? No.

Your revenue was less than one thousand dollars on the video for the ENTIRE YEAR on that video you posted. Oh I have a copy of so I'll make sure I post here for you lol.

 

So you're now selling legitimate things supposedly? What about all the people you scammed who contacted me? I'll be happy to post some messages from them about you bailed and won't return calls or emails. Are you going to refund them with all the money you claim to have?  It'd be the right thing to do.

 

Plus you're so angry in your replies. Cause you know I'm right :-)

 

It’s also not expensive to live there - because any intelligent person like myself can go to craigslist and look up rentals in the Signature. They're not expensive.

 i.imgur.com/xBbHZU1.jpg <here, I even took a screen shot for you. Less than $2000 a month. You're all smoke and mirrors...and its obvious. 

 

Do you also not know what an asset check is? You have nothing. Your lies don't work on people who actually check into claims made by scammers/idiots/liars like yourself.

 

 

Here are some more questions

 

-What kind of coding are you experienced in? What else have you coded? Where did you learn to code?

-Can you actually post revenue/bank statements that show this "business" actually makes money? LOL

-Why don't you hire employees if you have all this money? Why don't you grow it huge yourself if you're such a genius.

 

You've been posting craigslist ads for quite awhile, and all this time you STILL can't hire people and actually get an investor? Its pretty fishy that you have to prey on innocent people on Craigslist.

 

I've provided plenty of proof and have more to to give.

 

See Andrew...you may be selling websites and s****.>

Im onto a new scam?

AUTHOR: Advertiseinc - ()

POSTED: Wednesday, December 31, 2014

Loren, please tell me and everyone else how selling websites, SEO, hosting, and lead generation (buying ads on facebook) is a scam? As far as I am aware, its perfectly legal to sell websites, seo, hosting, and lead generation, and its perfectly legal to have other clients help me expand my advertising. How exactly am I "onto a new scam"? Loren, you have NO IDEA what you are talking about. If you really think that this is a scam, then I feel bad for you because you clearly must have a low IQ if you really think/believe that im scamming by selling websites and seo and hosting.

You can claim I am a scammer, or that im poor, but neither are true and when you assume things, it just makes you look like an idiot. I do not think there are any poor people living in a luxury penthouse at the MGM Grand Signature towers in Las Vegas (or atleast I haven't run into any while ive been living here).

I have never done business with this person

AUTHOR: Advertiseinc - ()

POSTED: Wednesday, December 31, 2014

Wow this Loren person will just not stop with the harrassment. Here is a craigslist post by Loren defaming myself and my business: http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/bfs/4826248981.html

What kind of person posts "scam" posts about someone they have never done business with? What kind of person harrasses a business they have never done business with and know nothing about.

Clearly you can see she is acting like a little child with all the name calling. This is exactly what she was doing in her emails and the reason why I politely declined to do business with this person.

First of all Loren, I am not selling anything pirated or illegal. You would know this if you ever did business with me. You can assume things all you want, but that doesn't make it true. Assuming things just make yourself look like an uneducated idiot. Loren you can try and defame me all you want, but the fact of the matter is, there are thousands of SEO and web design companies out there and they aren't doing anything illegal. I never claimed what I was doing was revolutionary. Why you would attack me for selling SEO or web design services is beyond me, but I think it clearly shows your lack of education and of course lack of being a professional. I am not spamming anyone. My lead generation consists of purchasing ads through facebook, but of course Loren has no idea what I do because ive NEVER DONE BUSINESS WITH THIS PERSON.

Also Loren, clearly you have never owned a business because your lack of knowledge on the subject is laughable. You think charging a 25% royalty fee is "stupid" (thats what she wrote). You have no business sense whatsoever and you would run a business into the ground if you ever owned one. Stick to your 9-5 Loren. If you own any businesses, feel free to post your business registration numbers for us all to see.

You have mentioned several times that you have spoken to clients of mine that iv'e left hanging. In fact you said you have a whole "list" of unhappy clients. Please post this list you claim to have for the world to see, because ive never left a client hanging and never would and I would like to see the names of anyone that thinks I left them hanging, so I can make it up to them if they really feel like I left them hanging (which I would never do). Clearly if you do not have a "list" of unhappy clients as you claim, then you are just a liar. Also you claim that ive tried to change my name, but have no proof to back that up either.

Also Loren, clearly you are an idiot and do not do your research. You say things without having the proof to back up your claims. On the mcdonalds website it says you must have $750,000 to start a mcdonalds. My evidence to that fact is located here: http://www.aboutmcdonalds.com/mcd/franchising/us_franchising/aquiring_a_franchise.html

It says on the mcdonalds website, "Generally, we require a minimum of $750,000 of non-borrowed personal resources to consider you for a franchise". Loren your lack of knowledge on even the most basic of things like a mcdonalds franchise really shows your level of education or lack thereof. You could have googled for 5 seconds to find this information, but of course you spoke without having ANY knowledge on the subject. You have NO BUSINESS KNOWLEDGE WHAT.SO.EVER. You think you can start a mcdonalds with 25-50k? Oh gosh Loren, your lack of education is astounding to say the least.

Loren you can say anything you want about myself or my business, you can defame me and harrass me as much as you please, but the fact is that you are a liar, an uneducated idiot, and know absolutely nothing about myself, or my business. You have zero business knowledge and it clearly shows. I will not respond to this Loren Idiot again because its a waste of my (and everyone's) time. If anyone has any questions, then can contact me directly.

Andrew onto a new scam

AUTHOR: Loren - ()

POSTED: Wednesday, December 31, 2014

This is the same scam just with a new veil over it. Wow, let me pay $25,000 just for the privilege of selling Andrew's "services" 

 

Andrew, SEO is so 1999.

Web site hosting has been around since the dawn of the internet and costs  $5-$30 a month.

Lead generation=Hacked interspire and spamming craigslist.

 

This is nothing revolutionary, you could go sell SEO yourself from someone LEGITIMATE WHO ISN'T BROKE SCAMMING PEOPLE ON CRAIGSLIST FOR A QUICK BUCK.

 

If Andrew's methods are so revolutionary, why does he need to sell this business to you...he would just do it himself and be able to get an investor. But the problem is he's selling a SCAM.

 

I'm still waiting for Andrew's lawyer.

 

Here's a great quote from Andrew "They charge $500k - $1 million for a mcdonalds or subway plus royalty fees. I guess you think they are a scam too, since they charge money for their product?"

 

1) Its more like 25-50k for a franchise, calm down with the 500k nonsense

2) You arent McDonalds - you're a scammer selling pirated products.

3) Exorbinanat upfront costs plus 25% earnings is stupid.

4) You're poor.

5) you can't afford to buy a $500 program yourself so you just peddle pirated stuff.

6) Poor.

 

 

Did I mention there's a whole list of unhappy clients? He's been trying to change his name and use fake ones.

 

 

Selling My Internet Marketing Business - $25000

Hi, I sell websites, hosting services, mobile websites, SEO services, and lead generation services to small as well as large businesses all over the world. SEO is basically getting a company website to the top of google for the search terms relevant to their business. I charge a few thousand dollars upfront, plus monthly fees to perform these services for companies. I need you to advertise my services every day, using my advertising methods that I have perfected. All you have to do is advertise for my services using my methods, and I will handle the sales and support and perform the service for them as well. You will be paid out a 50% commission and you are paid every time a client pays for a service. You should be able to get 1-2+ sales a week at minimum, which is a few thousand dollars for each employee you have working for you. You can hire employees to expand. This is a great opportunity for someone looking to work from home and make a great income. Its also a great opportunity for someone that would like to start their own business. The price for this is $25,000 and includes complete training and everything you need to be successful at this.

If you had any money, you wouldn't need an investor....you can't even AFFORD employees yourself. You don't have an office

 

So "10 years" huh?

I asked a few satisfied clients of mine to post on here. I have been in this industry for over 10 years. I registered my corporation over a year ago because I started making a substantial amount of money and needed a corporation. Like I said before, I NEVER did business with this person and she knows absolutely nothing about me or my business.

My experience with Andrew

AUTHOR: Brandon - ()

POSTED: Thursday, December 18, 2014

I live in Miami, Florida. I just started doing business with Andrew Burd 8 months ago when I was injured on a construction job. I receive a social security disability check every month, I was looking for opportunities that I could do from home to earn extra income. His seemed like it would work for me, so I decided to buy his business and start working with him. In the last 8 months working with him, I have earned $55,836.50. I have attached a screenshot of my earnings for you to see. My experience with Andrew has been nothing but positive. I will continue to work with him for years to come.

LOL...OH ANDREW - ALREADY ASKED FOR YOUR LAWYERS INFO.

AUTHOR: Loren Reder - ()

POSTED: Thursday, December 18, 2014

Hi Andrew,

 

Like I said HERE (i.imgur.com/MKLpMW0.jpg) I already asked for your lawyers info...but you don't have one so you ignored me. You also don't have money for one - hence you have zero assets to your name (not even a car registered in your name.)

 

I already told you that you are looking at the WRONG LOREN. I'm not pretending to be anyone. My e-mail-is my name at hotmail.

 

You also haven't built a business at all...you've just been scamming for the past ten years. Its pretty sad you have nothing to show for it. You don't even have a valid business license. Your background check also showed not a single other corporation owned by you - which says the "networks" you've built never existed. 

 

Also genius - I posted ads with your specific name LOOKING for people who have done business with you. Nothing illegal about that. Nor is it stealing an identity. Plus I could copy your ads all I want. I never said I was you. This is just you grasping for straws at your SCAM being exposed for the world to see. Even if I did use your name it isn't idenitty theft...I would've had to fill out a credit app or something with your name on it you idiot for it to be a "crime." 

 

i.imgur.com/57KAHrT.jpg <Here, let me show you where else you're lying. You didn't even get a corporation until 2013. You have no website. You have a g-mail e-mail. Which backs up my claim that you are indeed, poor. 

 

You're also wrong because I talked to a couple of your "customers" and none of them are happy. You ignored them and left them hanging. 

 

Also Andrew...I know a lot about you. I know that you're selling pirated software for 100x what its worth. You're selling a product that violates the TOS of Craigslist, and they should be suing you hard for it. Perkins Coie LLP would have a field day with you. You're selling products that HARM craigslist users. You're HARMING your customers by selling them an illegal business.

Oh and in your pathetic videos "running the business" you don't actually do anything. You just sit there and blab about it. Your desperation is hilarious. "I JUST NEED PEOPLE TO HELP ME RUN ITTTT" "I NEED PEOPLE TO HIRE PEOPLE" If you're such a smart accomplished person you would do it yourself. If you were really making money - you would hire employees yourself. No person with a brain just goes on craigslist and asks for 15 grand (lol oh wait you dropped to 5k in the first e-mail cause your product has no value.)

LIKE I SAID, YOU'RE SELLING PIRATED SOFTWARE THAT ANYONE CAN BUY. You charged exhorbant amounts of money to teach someone how to spam Craigslist, which is illegal on its own....

 

I love all the fake reviews your fake customers are posting.

Loren, you will be hearing from my attorney

AUTHOR: Advertiseinc - ()

POSTED: Thursday, December 18, 2014

First of all, thank you for giving me the opportunity to defend myself and my business that ive worked for over 10 years to build. I have several online companies that ive built and I do business with dozens of affiliate networks and companies. I am very well known in the internet advertising community. To date, this Loren Reder person (that ive never done business with) is the only person on the internet calling me a scammer. I have dozens of satisfied clients and hundreds of industry contacts that can vouch for myself and my reputation.

This Loren person is pretending to be me (committing identity theft) and harassing me and making false accusastions. 

She even admitted in her rebuttal to the rip off report I wrote about her: (http://www.ripoffreport.com/r/Loren-Reder/internet/Loren-Reder-has-committed-identity-theft-Zionsville-Indiana-1195917) that she "put ads on craigslist myself and was lucky enough to get someone who he had sold before." What she didn't mention is that she copied and pasted my ads, and then re posted it to craigslist pretending to be myself and my company. She then tells people that I am some type of scammer. What kind of person does this to someone they have never done business with?

I have NEVER done any business with this person (thank god). Loren, this is a crime not only criminally, but civally as well. Its called identity theft and harassment and defamation. I have indeed hired an attorney to bring charges against you. Loren, you will be hearing from my attorney.

She does not know what she is talking about. She knows nothing about myself or my business and she has admitted here on ripoff report to committing identity theft against myself and my company. I have never done business with her, nor would I ever do business with someone that showed such questionable behavior in our email conversations. She is just mad that I politely declined to do business with her, after she showed very questionable behavior in her emails. Notice how she turns to derogatory name calling by calling me a "scammer" and "f****** idiot" and "sounds like it was written by a 5th grader", etc about someone shes never done business with and someone she knows nothing about. These are examples of the types of things she was saying to me in our initial emails and the reason why I started ignoring her emails for further information about working with me.

I do not just work with anyone willing to send me money. If I see red flags such as the ones I saw with Loren, then I politely decline to do business with the person. Very often they will come back at me with "your a scammer" etc, but in reality they know nothing about my business.

I find it very interesting that she says "No legitimate person charges you money to purchase their product and takes money out of your earnings."

I think this statement very clearly shows how educated (or not?) this person is. The word "purchase" implies an exchange of money for goods or services. 

Do you really think I would set up a business for you and train you for free? Show me ANY business that does not charge you money to get involved. Have you ever heard of mcdonalds, or subway? They charge $500k - $1 million for a mcdonalds or subway plus royalty fees. I guess you think they are a scam too, since they charge money for their product?

Like I said before, this isn't the first time that I politely declined to do business with someone and then they got mad. I do not do business with people that show questionable behavior from the start. This is the first time someone has ever tried to hijack my name and business. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to defend myself and my business. Unfortunately this is the internet and uneducated people can claim anything they want. Thank you for hearing my side to this.

This will be my last response to this report. Loren Reder, you will be hearing from my attorney.
