Itemsforyou.net is a scam (Gatita)

Its going to be pretty hard to control my temper at the moment, but I will try to explain the situation as best as I can.
I signed up for somebody from FIPG and did the bingos.com (for itemsforyou.net) offer, credited quick, etc. I then got 7 refferals to order a dell notebook. Gatita mentioned that if I would get just one more I could get the better model (the Dell Inspiron 6000) Got the 8th green, and did the custom order.
Everything was going great, kept in great contact, and told me when I would expect to be shipped.
I was supposed to be shipped around the 17th I believe of September.
Here is where I first ask about my order
(September 23rd)
[quote8852ebf921]im sorry, but i have to ask about my order
You keep pushing me ahead! I'm getting more and more anxious every time
17th to the 20th to the end of this week! today...[/quote8852ebf921]
Gatita Replys
[quote8852ebf921]First of all, enough PM's about shipping, seriously.
Second, your account(s?) are under investigation because some appear to not be unique users. I'm being questioned about whether or not the ones that are, actually have genuine interest.
Third, several have multiple IPs, which is another factor we are looking into.
I'll let you know in a bit![/quote8852ebf921]
Around this time A4f came back up so I started to PM her there.
I PM her this (September 25th)
[quote8852ebf921]I figured I would PM you instead of making a fuss in the thread.
What is going on with my order?[/quote8852ebf921]
I figure that was a decent question to ask...considering she didn't answer the first one.
She replies
[quote8852ebf921]Making a fuss in any thread about your own account will just get it closed anyway.
I'm not sure yet. For one thing, it's a sunday, and for another, I've only had a couple of days.[/quote8852ebf921]
Wow, so if I make a fuss, I will "just get it closed anyway." BS!
I then PM her later (September 29th)
[quote8852ebf921]You are killing me...
I keep seeing ppl in the forums who are getting there gifts! thumbsup.gif
If this wait is just because I will have to wait for the next shipment, that is completely fine with me, as long as I know I'm getting what I ordered.
Also, please remember, I have absolutely no hard fealings with you at this point
Some PM's have been coming across a little negative, and maybe you are thinking that is coming from me
thanks

Gatita replies
[quote8852ebf921]Hi Marshall, no it isn't because you have to wait, you would have been ordered this month as you were told.
I'll keep you updated, should be wrapped up by saturday.[/quote8852ebf921]
October 2nd, (I say)
[quote8852ebf921]I was told I would know by Saturday. Now obviously things can happen and maybe you wouldn't know by Saturday after all. However, I was told I would know by saturday in a previous PM.
Secondly, I completed all of my trades at FIPG except for the two that I had previously talked to you about.
My refferals and my sign ups were and are legit.
The only question we have here is why haven't you shipped yet?[/quote8852ebf921]
Sounds fair enouph, doesn't it?
She replies
[quote8852ebf921]No, that's not the only question. I have trouble believing they are all from FIPG (which really doesn't matter) since so many have the same IP, they ALL completed the same offer, and some referred users with proxies.
Everything is highly suspicious.[/quote8852ebf921]
The above is a pretty important part to this incident, it will come up later.
October 2nd, again, I say
[quote8852ebf921]Please feel free to talk to the mods, do anything you have to do to find out that they are legit. PM the people that I had set the trade up with and confirm that they atually completed the trade with me, you have my permission to do whatever you want to do over at FIPG regarding my trades, etc.
Also, I didn't say all of the trades I said all of them (6) besides the others that I talked to you about previously (2)
Please respond.[/quote8852ebf921]
Replied
[quote8852ebf921]I'm trying, that is why it is taking so long. Plus I want to make sure the leads are legit. I have no way distinguishing if these are unique people. Why did they ALL do the same offer?
That's something gratis puts users on hold for. It is an obvious walkthrough.[/quote8852ebf921]
So now it goes from them being the same user to the refferals doing the same offer. Hmm, lets think about this. You have a $10 offer, or a casino/hosting offer. What one would you do Gatita?
At this point in time I was getting pretty pissed, but still hoping for the best
[quote8852ebf921]From first being told I would know by last saturday, to now not answering my PM's, I thought I had been patient enouph.
My refferals are legit. They legitamately completed there offer, and so did I.
The only possible thing that I can think of is that you didn't get paid as much as you thought you were from bingos.com (got that from one of your posts) and afraid to take that big of a loss, which I can understand.
If this is the case, or anything else, let me know. I have been doing free sites for a while, and can work something out with you. But to just ignore me and say something about how all of my refferals are the same person, or I am trying to "scam" you is rediculus, or even, "I am investigating your account for 20+ days or whatever."
Saying my refferals aren't legit, and saying they are all the same person is unfair. As I'm sure you know they are not the same person.
Telling me that you dont believe me when I say that I got 6/8 refferals from fipg, is somewhat disrespectful. I know that you must take fraud very seriously, and that is a good thing. But, the facts are in the open now, and they will tell the truth.
I have never "scammed" a site to this date, and I never will. It only hurts you(me) in the end.
I have not made a fuss in a forum yet, and I still am not going to, because I am waiting for you and me to get this resolved. Again, do not take this as a threat, because it deffinately is not.
I did my part, now its your turn.[/quote8852ebf921]
Replys
[quote8852ebf921]I was going to put you on hold right away but I decided to hold back from doing so. You are welcome to make a fuss all you like, as I told one of your 'referrals', that has no bearing on my decision. And yes, there IS something shady going on with the account(s), and yes I tried giving you the benefit of the doubt by contacting advertisers for confirmations (which did not help), and yes you have been waiting several days patiently however I would have lithoughtli it was better than me just putting you on hold with no chance.
What can I say, I tried. Come to whatever assumption you like, in this case, feel free to think it is because we can't 'afford' to give you your prize.[/quote8852ebf921]
So condesending...
Basically giving up, I say (October 8th)
[quote8852ebf921]Am I going to get my gift that I deserve, or is it still a matter of time. If it is a matter of time, how long.
-Marshall.[/quote8852ebf921]
No reply so I add this
[quote8852ebf921]Please, dont think I think you are "dumb" but...are you sure there isn't something wrong with your site, have unique users from FIPG with the same IP, seems a little bit fishy.
And yes, you did say they all have the same IP.[/quote8852ebf921]
She answers
[quote8852ebf921]If I implied they liallli had the same IP, I apologise, they definitely do not. However at least half of them do, and some referred users with proxies. With all the information present nobody in their right mind would allow this account to pass approval - I was hoping to come to a different conclusion for your sake but I am having trouble grasping the high points of the site.
And yes, that's it, there is "something wrong" with the sitee.[/quote8852ebf921]
Me, October 8th (pretty pissed)
[quote8852ebf921]Now it goes from they all had the same IP to now half of them do? so 4 out of the 8 people that did offers have the exact same IP.
I realize that I must take in account that maybe I did get scammed by 4/8 users, but this still seems a little funny.
I guess if you must put them on hold, make sure I can see what emails were put on hold, so I can get in touch with the 4 users at FIPG and get this cleared up.
Thanks for your time up to this point.
I must stress again, please keep in contact.[/quote8852ebf921]
Answers
[quote8852ebf921]I said I apologised for inferring they ALL had the same IP - they definitely do not.
And i agree, it is a little funny.
I will, thanks.[/quote8852ebf921]
At this point I am starting to think it is going to get worked out...wow was I wrong.
My order status still said, "Processing." I couldn't see the refferals that were "questionable." I PM her this (October 10th)
[quote8852ebf921]When am I going to be able to access my account again?[/quote8852ebf921]
She answers
[quote8852ebf921]You should be able to access it just fine, you aren't on hold.[/quote8852ebf921]
I meant so that I could see which people were on hold, here is what she says
[quote8852ebf921]I don't think any of them are on hold yet, either.
You should be able to see now, though.
73 and 76 have IPs so similar it appears he was resetting his router. This possibly includes user 80 and 72 as well.[/quote8852ebf921]
[b8852ebf921]Everyone, please keep these in mind
73 + 76
80 +72[/b8852ebf921]
I'm not going to say the emails, but I will say the user names.
73
skooter22c (73)
slease (76)
Wait wait wait, so slease must be skooter22c? skooter22c is a scammer! So slease must be a scammer! Hmm...I dont think so.
jlaw (80)
tinman5 (72)
Please, go do a search of these two groups, and I think you will see that they are different users...
October 10th, I send this info to Gatita, and she answers back (very quickly)
[quote8852ebf921]Yeah, I don't know what to do. I'm very confused about everything, this is the weirdest situation I've had to deal with yet.
Thanks, I'll PM you again soon.[/quote8852ebf921]
After a long wait, I PM her ONCE AGAIN, (October 19)
[quote8852ebf921]Please let me know what is going on...[/quote8852ebf921]
She answers
[quote8852ebf921]Consulting with some other site owners about what they would do in this situation (being completely anonymous, of course) they all said they would put the account on hold, which I agree with but have been avoiding hoping to hear something from publishers confirming identities.[/quote8852ebf921]
"Consulting with some other site owners about what they would do in this situation (being completely anonymous, of course)" Yeah...right...
One word at this point in time..."Pissed."
I message
[quote8852ebf921]Did you contact the mod at fipg so he can show you the screen shots?
[i8852ebf921](This is reffering to the users, and who they are)[/i8852ebf921]
This almost makes me sick to my stomach, because I dont know how to tell you or show you that I am not scamming you.
I did your site just like I did the 7-8 others that I have done...legitly.
I really have no idea why some of them have the same IP...
I asked the mod at fipg, about the 4 users who you had questions about...they are all unique users at fipg...I really dont understand.
I litteraly think about this matter every day, and I am not even kidding.
This is really starting to make me mad. I have been very understanding that their may have been a mix up or somethign every since I ordered in early September, but this is just rediculus.
Please, ask anything you need to ask to realize that these users are unique.
Pleaes keep in contact with me, as in respond to this pm. I hate waiting to get new information...[/quote8852ebf921]
She answers
[quote8852ebf921]I understand, really I do. I did talk to a mod at fipg however I try not to get that involved. Basically I need to go with what information was presented. I almost put you on hold instantly, but I wanted to make contacts with publishers to try and work through this but that was completely unhelpful. Maybe it would have been easier to just put the account on hold, but I wanted to try and figure it out for you, but frankly I am still stuck at square one.
I don't liunderstandli why some of your referrals are like this. Really it isn't my job to understand, it's my job to approve an account I feel secure with, or not approve an account that makes me uncomfortable.
And honestly at this point, it makes me very uncomfortable.[/quote8852ebf921]
October 21'st. I say
[quote8852ebf921]You dont answer my pm's but you post here just yesterday.
You should pm those users who you said are the same, and see what they have to say about it. [/quote8852ebf921]
Answers
[quote8852ebf921]I don't get involved in message boards when it comes to my users, thanks. I simply go with the information of what is in front of me.
And I appreciate you pointing out my internet habits and whether or not I choose to PM you, but it really is unneeded.[/quote8852ebf921]
I now check my status page, and 2 of my friends who did an offer (which I had talked to her about earlier, and she had said it would be ok) are now dq'ed, and 2 other users.
Once Gatita realized the two users who post frequently, and are well respected members, she DQ's my two friends who I had previously talked to her about, and she said it would be ok.
Here is the kicker (this really makes me lol)
Today I say in a PM at a4f to her
[quote8852ebf921]So now I see that on my account that there are a completely new set of people who are DQ'ed (when they were fine in the first place) And now the others that were DQ'ed are now "fine."
I have 4 good refferals on my account now.
I want to order a gift and be done with this site, cut my losses and be done thinking about what is going on every day.
Why am I on hold. I did absolutely nothing wrong at all. If anything, it was the 4 people "who scammed you."
Why am I on hold?[/quote8852ebf921]
She says
[quote8852ebf921]It is not a completely new set of people (give me a break), I just decided to let go the user from FIPG after looking into it some more.
You are on hold because the whole thing is far too shady, and I am not comfortable letting it go.[/quote8852ebf921]
Take from this what you want, but this is bullshit.
Please, I urge everyone who had been fucked over by Gatita to take a step forward, and dont let Gatita f you over.
This is in her TOS
[quote8852ebf921]Contact between site associates or employees is to be kept private. Any conversation/emails/messages between the previously mentioned parties that is revealed or shown to outside parties will result in all users involved to be placed on indefinite hold.[/quote8852ebf921]
So shady...
Me and my friend both sent an email to bingos.com explaining what went on, hopefully they do something (prob. wont)

My friend made a post at a4f saying Gatita is a scammer...hmmm....it was deleted.

22-10-2005 21:42:46
wow....completely rediculous. I don't see why its a big deal that people do the same offer. The bingo offers are so common among these type of sites because they are cheap. I do not see how this introduces fraud at all.
Just for the record. Gatita gave me the run around when I finished summerforyou a while back. Saying that 4/8 referrals were "suspicious". Including some of the most respected traders on FIG. I guess I got lucky , and and only 2 were kept red after all.
One of my refs was buildapc4free(cc40...lol), and was put on hold because his name was fake. Not saying that was the wrong thing to do, I'm just saying it for the hell of it. I guess I can say I wont be doing anymore of her sites, because I guess I can be guaranteed to be on hold because I am coming public with insider information lol

The thing is, they have shipped gifts to people.
I think of it this way. If a scammer scams lets say, 5 people, but ships out 500 gifts...are they still a scammer?
I think yes.

Sonofshoe paid me a certain amount to do this site for him, and is now asking for a refund as my account is one of the ones Gatita placed on hold with the excuse that my IP address was "oddly similar" to someone else Sonofshoe had referred. That iis complete bullshit. I reistered for the site and completed an offer completely legitimately and the only reason I was DQ'ed is because Gatita did not want to make such a large payout to Sonofshoe. The way I see it, I shouldn't have to provde him with a refund as I did the site honestly and it is not my fault I was DQ'ed. Any advice?
shamash
28-10-2005 07:31:33
According to FiPG trade rules you have to do another site for him.
Someone else made me another site because the site I signed up for under them turned off their script and stopped greening people for doing offers (they were a scam that shut down), and I had to do another site. It was ridiculous.

Are you implying that there is more that we don't know other than what sonofshoe has already posted?
If so, I don't see the point of going around saying, "I GOT INFO YOU DON'T KNOW, BUT I'M GOING TO KEEP IT TO MYSELF."
If it isn't such a big deal then why is it so hard to release details to potential/current customers that are concerned about since a very reputable trader appears to be getting screwed out of a large amount of money he earned.

Yeah, I am implying that. Obviously there was by the PMs he left out (on purpose or what, I don't know).
Release details to customers that are "concerned" ? Have you read what they have been posting lol They can continue speculating all they like, I'm keeping this between sonofshoe and I.

First off I was thinking about doing her sites but HELL no not now, and I wont be encouraging anyone and if I do see people thinking about it I'm going to tell them to forget it. Just by seeing how she reacts to people shows no one should be doing her sites. If she owns a freebee site, if someone cuts you down or says something against you don't lower yourself and make some dumb ass comments you have made. Owners are to respect their users and rise above their comments. Not make dumb ass comments like you have. Correct the problem and move on. One bad move is shafting FIPG members, we're a family here and you screw with one of us you just screwed with everyone of us. Good luck getting new users from FIPG again.

That has been my point exactly (except much better put) that Gatita has taken the situation so lightly that she doesn't know the consequences of situations like these.

I'm not doing any of the "GoGreen" sites...as all of this just doesn't add up to me.
First of all, they launch like 15 sites in a day or so, without even starting somewhere. I'd be a little more at ease if they would have launched ONE site and proved it to be legit, then added a few at a time. ...But launching so many sites (and they're high-ref sites, at that!) in such a short period of time, is most likely going to lead to disaster.
Also, I don't think we've ever had a "free-site network" that is made up of multiple owners of multiple sites....we'll see how all of that works out.

I don't think sonofshoe would go to that much trouble if he had been scamming her. I also don't understand when he would pay for illigitamate referrals he knew wouldnt be counted when he could easily get anyone to do that site.
Bottom line, she set her referral requirements too low, and won't own up to it and pay him his money due.

Actually the PM's were basically SonOfShoe asking Gatita if 2 people who were interested in the site, but lived in the same household, could both sign up. [bf2809518c0]But[/bf2809518c0].........
.........Gatita said it would be a problem. Sonofshoe said that they both wanted to do a Bingo offer, and both had different names and Netellers ID's. Gatita said [bf2809518c0]she would allow it[/bf2809518c0] if they both did different offers. Sonofshoe then told Gatita that (insert e-mail here) was going to do a certain offer. He then told Gatita to forget about his other friend signing up because he didn't want there to be any confusion when it came time to get his gift.
That was the end of that discussion.
The way I see it is that Sonofshoe wanted 2 people from the same household to be able to do the site, only one of which who did, and not the 4 or so that has been said.

So in the end, I got a PayPal payment of $400.
Its kind of hard to still be mad when I made $200 or so profit, but it still somewhat pisses me off when it was so easy to go back and give me credit once I (and others) made a fuss about it. <--- And that is what it came down to.
Seeing how easy it was to turn the 4 refferals from red to green, I really can't imagine how the other 4 wouldn't count.
