I got a called from sponsored whips. I do not remember the name of the guy, but he told me that i was selected to get my car sponsored. He told me of several different companies that can sponsor me like Monster and Nissan. He asked for my age and i told him that i was 20. Then he told me that because i was under the age of 21 there was a fee of 198 that I have to send to him. I went to the nearest post office to get a check done and send it over the mail. After sending it he sended me an email containing a resume that I had to look over and approve if i like it to send it to the companies to get sponsored. Days after that i called him to ask how long does it take, and he said he was busy with another customer and that he will call me right back. I waited for that call and never received it. I called again and told me the same thing. 

Now it has been 2 months since i send my money and i still have not received my money back. My supposedly representative does not answer my calls, so basically i got ripped off.

they will not return the money back

AUTHOR: Luis - (United States of America)

POSTED: Tuesday, June 26, 2012

after a couple of months of texting and calling SW, i decided to send a large amount of messages to my supposedly representative. he finally answer saying he was gonna call the police for harrasment. i didnt cared, at least he answer after ignoring me for so long. we talked on the phone demanding my money. he said he was gonna tell his boss to call me tomorrow during business hours. i doubt i will get a call from them but i will still demand my money. to many people is getting ripped off like me.

Paula you sound like a broken record player

AUTHOR: Anonymous - (United States of America)

POSTED: Tuesday, June 26, 2012

Bish you sound like a broken record posting the same crap for every response. 

I'm in my 30 day period and haven't received a refund AS YET so if you can get your mouth out of your a$$ and explain to me why I haven't received a refund. 

(1) Sponsored S**ts gets a "F" rating on the BBB
(2) I didn't get my refund of $199... you have my address on file so give me my money! You're fully staffed and supposedly been in biz for 6 years but can't give refunds?
(3) You and your company is fake.


Of course I can't find anything on the website that  said "they WORE all the logos, went to shows, and DID EVERYTHING we asked them to prove to sponsors they earned it, and they didnt get it" because you guys are fake. 

I have sent 2 letters to you retards and no refund.

Also, Trust me you don't want me visiting your in person.

Sponsored Shits is FRAUD

AUTHOR: Anonymous - (United States of America)

POSTED: Tuesday, June 26, 2012

Sponsored whips aka sponsored shits is fake and a scam... Do not get lured into their scam! They are a fraud company that takes peoples money and Im stating this statement because Im a victim. Do not give them any money. They won't give you back your money if you're not happy. They say they have a 30-day refund policy but they dont follow through on their statement.

 They will tell you they sent the refund in the mail but they actually didn't. I have called numerous times to spoke to attitude customer service "Mitch/Patrick" at 302-235-8526 and he supposedly sent the refund. He gave me a number for a "manager" aka troy in accounting but he doesn't know how to answer his phone. Mitch said the refund was lost in the mail so the idiots remailed it again regular mail instead of certified mail. They are a scam and I having an attorney involved as
well as the BBB. I have submitted a letter for a refund on April 19th, 2012 and yet still no refund. Expose Sponsored Whips aka sponsored shits and there b***h (Paula walker)! Don't say i didnt warn you!

P.S. Paula dont put that b.s. that your facebook page has 20,000 likes because that doesnt mean s**t! My proof is you didnt return my refund therefore your company is fraud! Put your mouth is and return people's money but I guess you bust sucking Patrick's c**k it can't done!

I researched them online and the following links are only a FEW showing that Sponsored Whips is a fraud/Scam....

Once again you've neglected to touch on any of these concerns Mahani .

AUTHOR: dabigrippa - (Canada)

POSTED: Saturday, May 26, 2012

Seriously dude . I've posted these question one hundred times . Rather than answering any of these questions , you try to discredit ME . Come on big man . Give it a try !

How come I've yet to see ONE "sponsored wimps" sponsored vehicle anywhere ever ? How come your own page has nothing but random photos , that even an idiot like me , can place on a page ? How come in three applications I placed ,I dealt with the same f***ing retard each time yet he gave me a different name . How come you don't have the balls to use one verified representative name or photograph on your site or in your correspondence ? Why did I get f***ed around by YOU for two weeks before I got the proper refund information . Why when I , or anyone for that matter , perform any type of search on your
prestigious organization do I ONLY get negative feedback ? Who is Patrick McCoy ? Who is Parscam Vagani ? Why when Caitlin calls you tomorrow will you pretend to be busy and not return her phone call or be of any assistance whatsoever ? Show me ONE "Sponsored Wimps" sponsored  vehicle at any event anywhere . What is the two hundred dollar payment
for ? I've been given multiple B.S. explanations from YOU on this topic .

Why when asked " Who is this posting on Sponsored Wimps behalf ?" is the concern ignored ? Who are you ? We all know who I am ! You don't even have the good sense to monitor the comments on your own bogus "JOE'S DODGE RAM 1500" site . Why do you block users with negative feed back from your little site ? Why has the BBB given you the lowest possible rating achievable ?

Why , when I personally call YOU on YOUR PERSONAL cell phone ( 302 521 0023 ) do you initially claim to be Patrick McCoy ,
then some d****e BAG named Mitchell , then a pizza delivery service eventually culminating in a visit , to my home by the RCMP , with harassment claims from an unknown entity in Delaware ?

Why do you have the grammar , punctuation and general sentence structure of a nine year old ? AND FINALLY ....( not really )

Why will you not reply with , what one might consider , a plausible explanation that addresses even one of my list of never ending concerns ?

Let's file a lawsuit!!!

AUTHOR: Casey - (United States of America)

POSTED: Thursday, May 24, 2012

You have such a good point! This company is so bogus, and such a scam! We never got our money back, and I'm in the process of filing a police report on them, already filed with BBB, then going to hire a lawyer (not that I'm sure any of this will do any good) but you never know, and if anything Karma will kick them all in the a*s. I say we get as many people together from this website as we can, and file a class action lawsuit against them to see if we can get our money back. We should also go to the news crews and everything. If you're interested in helping me out with this, let me know, and I'll get you my info, so we can work together and see what we can do! I want these b*tards to get what they paid for!!!

Can't prove otherwise? LOL!

AUTHOR: Robert - (USA)

POSTED: Thursday, May 24, 2012
All we see is 200,000 likes at www.facebook.com/sponsoredwhips so THATS proof how big and legit we are.. sorry you cant prove otherwise :)

200,000 likes?  Really?  Gosh.  That's not what's reported by facebook :  http://www.facebook.com/sponsoredwhips/likes

Facebook reports 21,049 likes total.  Moreover, just how does a facebook like PROVE any legitimacy about any business?  Kindly explain.  Facebook 'likes' are nothing put a marketing ploy-plain and simple.  Many companies will offer "discounts" or coupons if a visitor will "like" them.  Simple marketing, nothing more.

Additionally, Facebook branding tools will allow someone to "like" you without ACTUALLY VISITING your facebook page.  So what's the value of a "like?"  http://www.facebook.com/brandpermissions/logos.php
