Offshore Outsourcing & Scammer

Blog about offshore outsourcing and scammer in the outsourcing industry

Scammer: solidclix.com - advertchina.com - idvert.com - Latest Mailing Database - e-Market Guruz

SolidClixSilvia Beri from Italy has been thinking that she can save something by buying data from Asia. She did not think about the European Data protection law and as a result of this she could only get some heavy used data if the data even are not a fake. We have in Austria a proverb: "Who buys cheap, buys most expensive!". As a result I found a posting at LinkedIn:

Silvia Beri

Silvia Beri Affiliate Marketing Manager at Supermoney.eu

Latest Mailing Database and e-Market Guruz total SCAM!

Don't trust these two companies if you have to buy data, they're total scam! 

We asked them for very specific data, they gave us total fake numbers or data which did not correspond to what we asked for, they denied us a refund or never gave it even though they promised it and they accused me of not knowing the format of mobile numbers in Italy (I've been living in Italy since I was born, FYI). You'll lose money and won't get anything good, beware!!!

Silvia: thanks for the awaring people.
Don't Trust these comapnies (solidclix.com, idvert.com, advertchina.com) because they are total scam. They are buying traffics but doesn't pay to publishers their money. They signed contract, update credit-apps but they all are dummy. so beware of this and we have uploaded all proofs @ https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/announcement-how-solidclix-malicious-time-payment-vishal-mehta

If we follow the LinkedIn Pulse link then we will find that Vishal Mehta has published on April 19, 2015:

Announcement: How Solidclix malicious at time of payment
  1. There is a below retention rate report which forwarded by Solidclix to ZoomTraffics and Solidclix has confirmed it. zoomtraffics aff_id is 1770 which is point out into sheet.
    retention rate report which forwarded by Solidclix to ZoomTraffics and Solidclix has confirmed it

  2. There is no contract of 20% retention rate between solidclix media ltd., and zoomtraffics for clash of king offer and zoomtraffics hasn't ever agreed on 0.1$ incent basis payment if zoomtraffics doesn't reach 20% retention rate. There is a below chat discussion which is point out Date and time and AM of solidclix.

    [27-01-2015 13:28:58] Shirley Wang | Solidclix Media LTD: Fine , I can make it open , but the retention rate if under 20 % , we can only pay you as USD 0.10 per installation.

    [27-01-2015 13:29:01] Shirley Wang | Solidclix Media LTD: Is it ok ?

    [27-01-2015 13:29:22] Vishal Mehta: sorry we don't work on terms of retention rate. We only agreed $2.80 payout for each conversion for clash of king.

  3. Zoomtraffics did 15362 conversions for clash of king and the total commission is $43103.60 and solidclix didn't pay to us for clash of king and other offers too. if zoomtraffics quality is not good enough then why kept buying traffics from zoomtraffics till commission did reach $43000. solidclix had to pause the traffics without any confirmation to zoomtraffics but they didn't do that. but at time of payment they didn't reply and didn't confirm but when we are awaring to people about this then they are realized this things and now claiming ZoomTraffics is doing malicious.

    Such kind of things badly disturbs the balance of the industry. There is a below printscreen of solidclix's system report as per zoomtraffics aff_id (1770) related.

Just wants to aware publishers, agencies, affiliate marketing how solidclix is doing fraud with publisher at time of payment.

We have discussed internally and legal department, would like to take the legal action against dishonest and wrong doing advertisers and affiliate marketing companies.

ZoomTraffics is working with more than +12000 publishers and +400 advertisers and don't need to prove the reality of our traffic's quality because there are above printscreens and our advertisers are also awaring about our quality and reputation.

Just wants to ask people if zoomtraffics is doing malicious then how we can claim our loss because solidclix didn't pay $43000 commission yet that's why we took this steps. we are keen to aware people about this issue. So don't business with them and Be Safe...

A look at the LinkedIn company site of solidclix.com shows us that Zoom Traffic has offered the half amount to solidclix.com, which they did not accept. That shows that solidclix.com is really a fraud company, because sales have been done by using the data and the result got confirmed by both sites:

SolidClix Media Ltd. Regarding ZOOMTRAFFICS’s spreading rumors online against Solidclix Media Ltd , please find the attached evidence file that Mr. Vishal and ZOOMTRAFFICS are keeping sending us the threatening emails and messages all the time, even now . We announce hereby that Solidclix completely respect the judgement of readers but we are a professional network which works in transparent and fair way with our cooperators. We always remain modest and prudent. Thank you very much for taking time reading it

This message got commented from Vishal Mehta:

Beware of Idvert, Solidclix and Advertchina They are fraud so don't business with them.... ZoomTraffics owns $43000 commissions and other 39 publishers owns $40000 commission but they aren't pay to any publishers after buying volume traffics. We have got more than 45 posts from different agencies, publishers and networks and they have confirmed solidclix is doing fraud with publishers on terms of retention rate or weekly payment terms basis. We have uploaded each linkedin profile of solidclix and idvert's emplyess basis so don't business with them, follow it. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/announcement-beware-fraud-companies-vishal-mehta

This case shows us how important a background check before making business is. If we take a look at the domain registry of solidclix.com then we see that they are hiding themselves behind a Privacy Protection Service. Such services are normally only used from private people. It does even not make any sense to use a Privacy Protection Service for registering the domain and write afterwards the full address on their website:

SolidClix Media Ltd,.
Address: Room.905 Workingberg Commercial Building, 41-47 Marble Road Hongkong
Email: Team@SolidClix.com

The only sense is in this case a planned fraud. The address seems to be wrong, because if the use this address then the bill of the domain will never arrive in their office.

Indeed. I've never heard of retention rate sensitive deals on CPI\CPA stuff, because of unpredictable and unclear performance gauge and metrics on advertiser side.

What if I tell my pubs: "Thanks for theese installs guys, but our crew sat down with some beers and we thought that retention rate was uncool for us, so I'm not gonna pay you what you've earned".

Thus, I have a one good rule: always to run a strict and transparent PPI campaigns. No additional deals, tricky "but's" and shady amendments.

I can't say something bad about Solidclix in general, hope that you guys figure out how to get dry of the water.

 

Additional are a few negative comments about solidclix.com available:

@Vishal, I don't want to escalate this issue, I have signed the agreement and can't disclose the details. The only thing that I can say that I have not received my money in full amount and have not got intime feedback regarding traffic I sent.

Got in the same situation. They told us the leads have 0% retention rate 2 monts after we were running their CPI campaign. Don't know was it true or not, but either way we lost money because of them.

Fully agree with Vishal Mehta! Unfortunately, got the same issue with solidclicks
Some others, which like to protect solidclix, writing that they are working already a "long time" together with solidclix.

This can be only fake comments, because the domain got registered March 22, 2013 - a little bit more than 2 years ago. It is different what some people understand about a "long time"!
