Thumbtack Thumbtack Class Action Lawsuit Fraudulent Leads San Francisco Nationwide

I hired a custom cabinet maker through Thumbtack.com and according to Thumbtack.com, they had verified a background check.  After, 3 months of waiting for my cabinets to be built and installed, the cabinet maker never shows up for installing the cabinets.  He had given me design specs and even created a sample of the cabinet and door style I had chosen.  Everything seemed legit and thinking that this person was recommended thru Thumbtack and that on Thumbtack's website, it said his background had been verified.  I Googled George Meszaros, Clearlake CA and found he has an extensive criminal record.  Now, Thumbtack is telling me they are not responsible.  I have paid the cabinetmaker $17,500 for custom cabinets in my kitchen, pantry, laundry, and rental unit downstairs.  I have no kitchen and all my plans for having my old parents to come stay with me from Florida for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays are shattered.  Also, I was expecting to rent out the unit downstairs for $3500/month in order to help me pay for my mortgage and now that has also been shattered.  This has affected me emotionally and financially in a very big way and Thumbtack thinks it has no responsibility in this. I am looking for a lawyer who would take this case on as a pro-bono case.  Please email me directly at navisme@gmail.com

 Ive been using this service and paying for fake lead or quotes. Ive contacted them several times over a year and a half. And nothing gets resolved. Pay for customers ,sent quotes and nothing but excuses.. ive even quoted prices very low(unbeatable) and i havent heard from one single customer from thumbtack. Its a scam.. and most of the customers reviews on contractors profiles come from friends.. i have text messages from thumbtack support telling me this.. its all a scam.. some people say.it works maybe for some and for others they.send bogus leads? Idk..?

  I would like to be added to the list. I am a pro who has been scamed by thumbtack large amounts of money for fraudulant leads. my email is rgolchin@optonline.net. I want to be a part of the class action law suit against Thumbtack .

Please let me know..I'm a provider and am absolutly sure they fake requsts and charge. 

You can add me to the list of Thumbtack victims. They have scammed me with over $600 worth of bogus leads. I was desperate for leads and really had hope that I was going to get work. 6 months of paying and didn't receive not one lead through Thumbtack. Talking to their customer service is useless. If there is a class action lawsuit- count me in!

 Ive used them for two years and If a lawyer well versed in IT wants to go through my analytics, sit hits, ip's, redirects and bids then let me know.

How are you coming with data collecton on Thumbtack...I just canceled today for the same reasons...invalidated quote requests.  rmichaell@yahoo.com

Here's the user agreement. if you are on thumbtack like i am, I suggest you stop throwing money at these unethical jerks.here's the new user agreement.

I, too, am a PRO who got ripped off by Thumbtack. Apparently they have made a new clause in their user agreement as of 2016 that you makes it impossible for you to participate in  class action lawsuits. HMMMMMMMMM...... I would love to get these guys busted. I feel strongly that they are fraudulent...

Hello, 

Yes I belive Thumbtack is a fraud. They do have some "clients" that are ligit, but I feel a large number of the lisitngs are fraudualnt (made up). I have suspected this for some time, but kept with it a little bit as I did get a couple of jobs which I belive were lucky hits on actual people. I recently responded to a Craigs list ad and got back a response from what I feel was a thumbtack employee attempting to solicit my business on the site. They "Found" another photographer using thumbtack and oh hey have you used this service?? 

I beleve a class action lawsuite is very doable considering the number of people who feel the same. I am interested in pursuing this and am in the process of doing so. 

Contact me back if interested 

Anthony
