Information Brokerage Services, Inc. IBS, Inc. Misleading or deceptive advertising Shawnee Mission, Kansas

After reading these complaints about IBS, inc., I would have to conclude that the only thing IBS is really guilty of here is creative marketing. Their copy definitely held the attention of the complainants (enough so that they actually studied it to find something wrong with it).

Deceptive? I wonder If the complainant has recently purchased website hosting. The least expensive hosting available (at standard rates. No discounts) is roughly 10 bucks a month with no extras. If IBS, inc. is hosting it for you, at let's say, $10 a month, the maintain it for you (I don't know in dollars how much that costs. But, I do know it takes several hours a week of scheduled maintenance), and they take care of the billing and order fulfillment (which I am concluding by what most business advertisers mean by "Auto-Pilot"). Well, even if they make a profit of $5 a month, it would be a pretty good deal. As far as the $2,500 website... yes it does cost that much to create a website. And that's on the low side of the cost. So, it sounds to me like you really do get a $2,500 website for FREE.

All in all, I find that this complaint is quite petty. It doesn't seem as if anyone is getting hurt here. In fact I wish I could have seen the add copy. Sounds entertaining at least. When ever one receives advertisements of any kind, all one has to do is use a little common sense (assuming one has common sense).

this is the same exact business i want to avoid. i am being pressed to join up by my spouse. i havent yet, ibs inc ,under micheal forbes is selling his sellbizopps company website idea for 70-80 dollars and a 29.95 monthly fee. he wants a copy of the first paypal  payment you make and or a canceled check from the account you use, for the monthly payments, sent to him by fax. after some research i learned that he has the address po box in shawnee mission kanas that william billy bradshaw used for the mortage manager.biz.  a henderson nevada company that has employee complaints on not getting thier money. another review thinks the guy was micheal w edgecomb who sells similar junk. there are people who think this company went to california selling the same thing. and utah. the money manager biz in kanas from bradshaw asks that no one from kanas place an order as thier distributor territories are full. he is selling the same thing idea wise to people like my husband under the same address as micheal forbes in the sell business opportunities who claims that u own 3 businesses for the initial payment and get a bonus company if you pay 29.95 a month to have them maintain your website. i dont know what the businesses are or what he is selling. but it is the same address different names  and  with a dept number for the nevada company. trying to avoid this, not into business on the we do it all, you make the money pay plan. especially at my loss. why would they need a copy of the pay pal record u pay them with or the canceled check sounds off to much for me.
