Hi

Has anyone heard of these before? Automated Wealth Pack, says it has been advertised on BBC, Telegraph and SKY NEWS. It is working from home on the internet. You pay a fee of just under £24 and use Ebay and Google.

I have just signed up for it and my husband just used my card for Cash4surveys and lost the page, and he doesn't know how to get back to it.

I am so worried now, have i made a big mistake!!!

sorry, just looked and it it Package and not Pack at the end.

    I'm just always a bit wary of "money earning" schemes that ask you to pay a fee. Sometimes a lot of the information you'll receive from them is actually free anyway. I have never heard of "Automated Wealth Pack" - have you checked the reviews on BBC & Sky News?

    Its a pyramid scheme they claim its legit by saying BBC telegraph approve it they do not

    This is 100% scam

    Think about it the BBC would never endorse a product like this, why would they?

    http://www.register.com/whois.rcmx if you want to check the web address.

    I just cannot understand why someone would pay money for signing up for these things. If you have paid by debit card then there's the possibility they could take whatever they want at will.

    As you use google, have you checked the sites of BBC, Telegraph and SKY NEWS to find out if this is correct or have you assumed that what they say is correct?

    Hopefully someone will be along to correct me and say that I'm wrong but in case they don't - you've been scammed. Suggest you try the techie board to clear anything you have downloaded.
