cash rewards inc. rewards administrator deceived, false advertised, Strongsville, Ohio

I'm familiar with the program, as I was a victim on the giving end. I bought into the program as a REALTOR to offer rebate to potential clients, similar to the dealer you purchased your boat from. Your dealer was a victim of this scam too, but they're partially at fault for offering such a crappy program to their customers.

Unfortunately, Cash Rewards used an unsustainable business model that consisted of selling a 3 year rebates in hopes of people simply forgetting about it. That's why they made the claim process such a pain. They charged "partners" like me, and your dealer to join the program for thousands of dollars. We offered the rebate to our customers. They went bankrupt. End of the story.

I highly doubt you'll get anything out of Cash Rewards because they're finished, bankrupt. Unless there's a class action lawsuit, you might as well forget about Cash Rewards. Your only real option, as much as I hate to say it, is to go after the dealer. Maybe they'll pony up and offer some type of reimbursement because they fell into the scam in the first place.

Again, I hate to recommend that because I was a partner too and I can't imagine having multiple clients coming to me asking "where's my $10k rebate".

Bad situation.
