at its best!

Once we called, Nationwide Cyber employees were oh so nice! Then when they got our $59,975.00 they took a long time to get out machines to us.

We did get them and actually got two machines places after many, many problems and after much more money was spent (and some still owed).

We still have three brand new ones and now two used ones-Need One? Got FIVE!! Wish I could tell where NCS to put these, and no it's not in businesses!!

They now do not know who we are, can't find out who has law suits against them so we can join. The BBB of Florida needs a good talking to-don't think Texas would stand for this!!

We want our thousands of $$$$ back Nationwide Cyber Scamoff. Where is the FTC and why can't they help???

We all need a good lawyer-does anyone out there know one-I am looking.

#1 Consumer Suggestion

Buying a business to get rich? Bring your dirty laundry along, because you'll probably get taken to the cleaners!

AUTHOR: Paul - (U.S.A.)

Yeah, Wallance, that's what I thought.

Let's work the numbers. Five terminals for $60,000. That's $12,000 for each one.

What is a terminal. It's a little monitor, and a keyboard, plus a cpu, possibly a floppy-drive. In other words a computer with a dollar bill processor, right?

Is a computer with a money processor worth $12,000? You can buy a cheap computer for $500 these days. Is the rest worth $11,500?

People put a dollar in and get 10 minutes access. So, how long would it take to make $12,000? Well, let's see? At $50 a day, it will take a year to break even. But, wait a minute. You pay for the location. He gets a split. Plus, these machines typically don't make $50 a day.

I'd say it will take you 3 to 5 years to get your original investment back. But, wait a minute. There is a new thing out called WIFI. Wireless internet. People aren't using the machines anymore. With WIFI, they can surf on their own laptops. Right from Starbucks.

Also, people tend to damage these machines. You buy parts every month to keep them up.

No wonder they actually delivered the machines to you. Once WIFI is widespread, and it already is, the machines are practically worthless.

Dude, think Ebay. Unload these anchors. That's a suckers paradise.

What I fail to understand is how you got $60 to begin with. Inheritance? Gift? Lottery?

Twenty minutes of foresight and a little common sense shows this is a bad deal.

Try it out for a little while. Once you see the income isn't what you thought it would be, cash out, even at a loss, while you can still find takers. Good luck with that!

Public Access Internet Terminals from Nationwide Cyber Systems

AUTHOR: Wallace - (U.S.A.)

We actually bought 5 Public Access Internet Terminals from Nationwide Cyber Systems for $59,975.00. Yes, we finally did get the machines after many weeks and weeks passing. The whole deal was that the contract with Nationwide Cyber Systems got the businesses to put the P.A.I.T.in. Although we did place 2 after months, we could not afford to keep them there because it cost us a couple of thousand $$$ to put and keep them there. We were told by NCS it was only about a hundred dollars.
I finally got smart and turned them in to the FTC and the Florida State Attoney Generals office. Hopefully I will hear from them, actually I did hear from the FTC and they are checking to see if they actually cover this. After all these machines go thru the phone lines once they are hooked up and online.

#3 Consumer Comment

What exactly were you trying to buy?

AUTHOR: Paul - (U.S.A.)

Wallace, what were you trying to buy? Machines? For what? How much did you pay? $59,000? Did you get anything in return? If you are considering a lawyer, he will need to understand the deal as well? The idea of this site is to inform the public about a rip-off company. So, please update your report to include the nature of your purchase, the amount you paid, and what exactly you got in return. Good luck!
