    Just wanted to warn everyone about this guy, sometimes he also goes under nick blackbird, his company name is Experts Interactive. He asked for $10k prepaid, which we fully gave him, then he sent us all fake traffic and when we tried to resolve this issue and have some discussion about the situation, he just ignored all of our messages and we have never seen him or the money again. Stay away from him and just a piece of advice, be super careful with anything prepaid!

    Why did you give him all of those massages, did he have a bad back?

    I`m really sorry for you. It really seems that the world of SEO is full of these kind of people and they are making us all look bad.
    For the $10,000 did you at least sign a contract with clauses protecting you or did you just send him the money and hope for the best. (10.000, that`s 3 years minimum wage in Romania)

    Seriously? $10k is way too much. Did you sign the contract with the provider?

    Warning Signs:
    He was selling traffic.
    He used the term "guru" in his name.
    He wanted you to prepay $10,000.
    His "company" website is basically empty.
    His "company" has no social media presence.
    The "company" is located in Pakistan (no offense, but you have limited legal resource with a company based in Pakistan).

    How did you find this individual and why did you feel comfortable forking over $10,000 upfront?

    Are you making fun here, You gave 10,000 US dollar to someone without any written contract. You know it isn't the matter of few dollars. How a person can be lazy like you .................. strange

    For 10k advance I'd probably disappear too, and I am completely honest. Opportunity makes the thief...
