Ventures Bite Abdullah Raaj – $5,500 Paid for Forbes Article, No Delivery, No Refund, Unresponsive Internet

On June 17, 2025, I paid $5,500 USD via Payoneer to Abdullah Raaj, operating under the company name Ventures Bite (email: abdullahraaj2002@gmail.com) for the service of publishing a Forbes article for my client.

We signed a legally binding contract that clearly stated:

If the article is not live within 30 days, I would receive a 100% refund within 30 business days.

The agreed 30-day deadline passed without the article being published. The 30-business-day refund period also expired without repayment. Since July 17, 2025, Mr. Raaj has been unresponsive despite:

• Multiple formal refund requests via email

• Numerous WhatsApp messages (read receipts visible but no reply)

• Attempts to contact via social media

I have kept all evidence, including the signed contract, proof of payment via Payoneer, email and WhatsApp correspondence, and screenshots confirming the service was not delivered.

This experience has caused significant financial loss and reputational risk with my client, who is also awaiting the refund.

I am filing this report to warn other individuals and businesses to exercise caution when dealing with Abdullah Raaj / Ventures Bite, and to document this case for the public record.
