Don't judge a book by its cover. Customgraphicsandweb appears to be a legitimate business but it is a front for scam artist Benjamin Donley to take upfront money for work he has no intent to complete.

There are numerous reports on the Rip Off Report with Ben. I even contacted business on his portfolio and found they too were ripped off or the victim of a scam by Ben of BDProductions.org or Customgraphicsandweb.com

I had an agreement which I paid $1100 up front to Ben to create a website which he agreed would take up to 4-6 weeks. Communication was great before money exchanged hands, but as soon as he received his payment, communication went dead.

Hoping that my dream web project was in the hands of a diligent professional was crushed when I received no responses for weeks even though Ben signed an addendum to his contract which stated communications would be responded to in 24 hours or less.

One June 6th he said, "Hi Mike. Yes, its coming along well. I should have the design and layout for you to approve early next week."

On July 1st he said, "I have already told you I am working on it, and do not have an exact date for you."

Now July 7th I get this, "The agreement only give estimated dates. Not a specific time when it will be complete. I have told you several times I am working on it, and will have it available as soon as I can - but instead of waiting patiently - you decided to file a dispute with Paypal.

Policies are policies, and you agreed to them when you committed to the project, and there is nothing your lawyer will do about it.

If you want the site finished - pay the $400 additional fees for your actions and we will continue moving forward.

Otherwise I am under no obligation what-so-ever to ddo any further work for you at all until that fee is paid. Its part of the contract and you signed it agreeing to those terms."

I have lost all hope and believe he hasn't even started the project.

To confirm this I sent an email from another email address about an inquiry in which Benjamin Donley responded, within minutes with a quote and money request, while he often took a week to respond to someone who already paid him.

This is yet another report of Benjamin Donley of www.CustomGraphicsandWeb.com on this website about a rip-off scam.

Advice from someone on his portfolio!

"I had to have my credit card company go after him for the payment. Luckily I was able to recuperate my 1st install but my credit card company is going after
him as we speak. If you have done business with him it may be a lost cause."

Avoid this scam artist like the plague.

This is NOT ME

AUTHOR: 48823 - (United States of America)

POSTED: Friday, June 10, 2011

This posting and your Web site are somewhat of a problem for me.

You see, my name is Benjamin Donley. The problem? I am NOT the Benjamin Donley listed here. This might not be a big deal if my name was Mike Smith, or something of the like. However, my name is fairly uncommon. My other problem is that I ALSO work in the world of IT. I am located in Michigan, a stone's throw away from the person complained about here. I have no idea how much indirect damage this has done to my reputation, but it is NOT earned and I don't know what to do.

Will you PLEASE respond with some suggestions for me? I do not have the power or the experience to build a site that competes with this and the other consumer complaint sites. I know of at least three other Benjamin Donleys in the US who are needlessly suffering the same fate. My own mother asked me about this just today.

Any help you can provide would be appreciated.

Please contact me by email.

Regards,

Benjamin Donley
