Recently, I've been looking for an anime OAV called Makeruna! Makendo (a.k.a. Don't Lose! Makendo), and found a website that provides links to other downloading sites. (They don't have actual anime for download; they lead you to sites that do have them.)

(I should also note that that site doesn't even have a link with which to contact the administration.)

So, that's how I found allanimedownloads. I contacted the person who owns that website, and he said he does have the OAV, and that he would provide me with a link if I give him a receipt number. I signed up, got a receipt number, and gave it to him (only three weeks ago). I did read in an email that it could take up to two days for someone to get back to me, but I've contacted this person *twice* during the past three weeks.

Upon trying out the actual service to see what they do have, all the links do are link you to different torrent sites, none of which have Makeruna! Makendo.

Upon typing "allanimedownload scam" onto google, some webpages have claimed that that site is reputable, but a certain thread in a certain forum (link: http://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=2521) reveals that this really is a scam.

A d**n shame! The OAV that I'm looking for is not even available on YouTube or Ebay. I hope that someone does prove me wrong about the reputability of this site, and that the site really does have it somewhere.
