White Digital Media White Digital Media Fraud Company That Sells Advertising In Fake Magazines. SCAM. USA, Internet

White Digital Media is a complete scam. There is nothing legitimate about this company. From the fake "prospectus" to their websites and so called search engine they have. White uses the same boiler room tactics that Schofield Media uses. I have setup a watchdog website specificly for these kind of companies. You can access my sites at http://www.magazine-scams.org and also http://www.b2bscams.com . Together with great sites like the rip off report, we can put these kind of companies out of business. Big thank you to Rip Off Report for letting our voice be heard.

I worked with White Digital Media for three months as a social media
intern last summer in their Carlsbad headquarters. I dont know what
has changed since then so please dont think this is a conclusive view
of how things are now; I just want to give potential employees or
clients an idea of what I saw in my brief time there.



Since this was my first internship while I was finishing up school, I
didnt know what to expect from a company, but I immediately found it
odd that in the marketing department, everyone sat around their own
laptop, headphones in, creating fake social media profiles (with fake
names) and commenting on articles from the various WDM properties, to
create the illusion that people were reading the articles. As far as I
know, its still happening now. If you look through any of the companys
FB pages, its just employees talking to each other.



Honestly, these social media initiatives took up about 95% of my time
there. To get credit for my internship, I had to make up extra
responsibilities since they felt (as did I) that I learned nothing, and
spent my time doing vaguely unethical things.

Occasionally we would get a break from this and were instead tasked with
going through other digital magazines and taking snapshots of their
paid Front of Book ads, so that we could then put them in our
magazines to give people the impression that we had the same
advertisers as more established competitors. I never knew if this was
completely legal, though I had a feeling it was at the very least
grossly unethical.



As to the complaints about Glen White, I never had the pleasure of
meeting him, but on the occasions I would see him in the office, he was
screaming at someone about this or that. I got a very Napoleonic vibe
from him.



If you read any of the press releases put out by the company (they put
out thousands, though few are ever read by anyone other than the woman
at the press release company), they talk about how great their
internship program is and that it leads to full time employment, which
as far as I could see was true, since interns with no experience were
immediately promoted to managers and editors and "project managers",
though at intern wages. The program goes something like this: intern
for three months on very little pay (at the time $100 per week), then
becoming a temp employee for another three months while youre still
paid next to nothing and are not eligible for any benefits, and then
after those come on as a full time employee, though still making less
than a full time WalMart Cashier.
