I filled out a form to be offered a way to work from home. I received a call from a woman offering a service to allow me to sign up start posting on a blog, and that I would be paid for it. I was told I would be paid up to 200 dollars per post i made!

I paid 250 dollars for this service, and filled out a questionnaire with their Administrative department.
The man whom I spoke to was named ERIC. He was really really rude to me. He insulted my intelligence and I could hear him call me stupid in the background while he was talking to someone else.

After the questionnaire was filled out, I was supposed to get my blog. But now when I call them to get set up, they say they will call me back. In the mean time 250 dollars is missing out of my account and I can't use their service. Now their website doesn't work and they aren't contacting me so I can get my money back, or start up my blog website.

DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE FOR ANY SERVICE. They will steal your money and not pay you what you earn on your blog, if you ever even get that far. It's likely that NO ONE gets that far.
Local reality ads will scam and cheat, and rip you off. This place is a ripoff. Never use them.

I was attempting to help out my friend when he lost his job, so I made this report. He's telling me to delete the post but I can't see how.
What was stated above as the original post is false.
It should be removed as I didn't mean to endanger my friend.

This report was falsely created. It is not true.
I was trying to help my friend out, but did not want to get him in to trouble.
Please take it down as the company representative above reported correct information.

Hello Anonymous,

I am the head of the Tech. Department at Local Reality Ads. I understand you have had trouble with our company, if in fact this is true.

You have provided no proof of your claims, and I would like to request formal proof of your accusations. As we have not received any phone calls or emails stating that anyone with the company has ever had a problem, I would like you to provide us with proof of your dealings with our company or an companies we are affiliated with.

Please provide us with:

- Your Name
- Your Client iD #
- Your Blog Name

As we have had an employee admit to posting false "Rip-Off Reports" under our company name, I would like to make sure these accusations aren't just the dealings of this former employee.

I would also like to remind everyone in this situation that libelous, defamatory statements are unlawful, and we will be looking into the matter.

Thanks,
Eric Blouir
Tech. Department

At local reality ads, I worked there for a month.While I was there, I noticed they would offer their service (sign up for a blog, get paid for ads on the blog) and then not pay the members.They claim to pay out a large sum of money for your blog posts (up to 200 per post), but then might not ever actually send the money out .They also claim to pay their sales staff, but when you ask for your payment, you are told that the sales didn't go through. Every sale that you make, they keep.

They have the ability to do the service, but what they are doing is they call up businesses, then they have the business do a test text message to try out the service, but then they charge for the texts and pocket that money.
