I joined it for the one price of $1.Once I gave my visa card details the advert then said it was a 14 day trial.This made me suspicious about the possibility that they would deduct more money from my visa without my knowledge.I tried to contact these people but was unable to My fears were well founded as I have just read on your sight about a man that has had money taken from his account without his permission.Would be grateful for your help and reply.

OMG this is bad bad bad I do not understand why IF this is not GOOGLE that GOOGLE does not put a stop to it. All the numbers they give to cancel are not working or valal you get sent to voicemail boxes that are not taking messages or hung up on and blocked from calling back The one person I spoke to stated my phone number was not in the system and she could not cancel with out "valid" info she also stated she did not work for Google. I had to cancel my card.

DO NOT DO THIS-IT IS A SCAM-DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR CARD INFO

Do not waste time trying to contact the scammers, being hung up on, being on hold for hours to some call center and made to jump through their hoops like mailing stuff to a UPS address (it will just come back as undeliverable).

Here is what you should do:

Contact your bank/credit card company and contact the authorities.
http://www.chrismalta.com/scamtip1.asp

Step 1): Initiate a charge-back against that company by filing a fraud report with your credit card company or bank.

Explain that you wish to file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.

Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that are filed online.

And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.


Step 2): File your reports with FBI, FTC, Utah A/G, and Utah Division of Consumer Protection.

FBI: http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx

FTC: http://www.ftc.gov/ftc/contact.shtm
Toll-free helpline: 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357);

I was convinced this was potentially a legitimate opportunity, partially because the name "Google" was "affiliated" with it. However, my mind was changed after reading this site. When I tried to exit the page which asks you to fill out your credit card information, a box popped up asking me to speak with a live agent before leaving the site/deciding against signing up... The live agent provided only generic, non-responsive "replies." It was ridiculous. I asked several questions, yet the only information I received was to not miss out on this great offer - to simply pay the $1.87 (the amount which routinely changes) and start earning money from home right away - up to $943 dollars per day; that the agent was an actual live agent; etcetera. However, when I prompted the live agent to provide me with some information directly responsive to my particular question - any of my particular questions - more generic information was given, namely - do not miss out on this opportunity for a 7 day risk free trial, for only $1.87, and start making up to $943 a day. If for no other reason, I would not participate in this, as this live agent interaction, or lack thereof, screams: "NOT LEGITIMATE."

This is a scam, the numbers given is not valid and the email support@googlerevolution.com does not reply to you. There is no way you can get in contact. There is no way for you to cancel, this is ridiculous and misleading. The name Onlinecashtraining that appears on the bank statement and the telephone number obtained matches with Mr Chuck Turner's infomations as above. Apparently, this telephone number is for Sosaku Systems and is located in UK. Please refer to Mr chuck Turner;s comments above to get full address.

Look people. If you go the the link they give you, it says right on the bottom (the fine print) that they are not affiliated with Google (the good one) and that they are indeed an LLC, but it's called Google Revolution LLC. If the, not-quite-right trademark Google logo didn't send a red flag...then you need to ALWAYS read the fine print.

Yesss!!! I've got my money back!!! It took me 5 days. I called every day 5 to 10 times a day, yes I made their lives hell. One thing I can't understand is about the real Google: Why don't they do something about ? C'mon, Microsoft v. Lindows.com, Inc. was a court case brought by Microsoft against Lindows, Inc in December 2001, claiming that the name "Lindows" was a violation of its trademark "Windows." They won!!! Now these scammers are using the name Google to scam honest people? GOOGLE, INC DO SOMETHING!!!

"Face Book" : yes, it was an eye opener at fist! Then, listening to the guy talk made me realize he was full of crap. Every time I go back to check it out, his residence/hometown changes. At one point, the site claimed that he was from My hometown!! I obtained the original original link from a FaceBook ad. (http://www.cars.brettmakesbank.com/) You'd think that FaceBook would monitor these things more diligently...

I was just scammed. I cancelled my credit card as I had already given them the number and when I tried to continue to the "no thanks" for the trial it wouldn't let me. I also tried calling the number listed one one of these comments - they put me on hold. I hung up. They also had someone come online, but to no avail. My bank said the $1.87 was pending and I'd have to file a dispute, but having just been laid off, I just can't afford to dispute when I have no idea what they're going to try to take out of the account. I can't believe my stupidity in not looking carefully. I'm always careful. I am very angry at MSN Money and Google. I trusted MSN Money to do this. This is a disgrace on their part. So I just had to cancel the whole credit card and have the bank issue a new one. They'll probably get the $1.87 unless I go thru the dispute. Thanks for this site.

im with u guys! my husband is seriously ill & lost his job as a result! we desperately need an income, i was fooled & was trying so hard to be smart about such ads!

I agree with you also. I paid for a kit and received information about government grants. In this day and time people do not have money to just give away, not even $1.97, I sure don't. If you are reading this message please be warned that the ad is a scam. Imagine if 1000 people pay that $1.97, how much money that whoever has this site has made!! Be warned!!!

Scam site for Google Money Master landing page:
https://www.6ftoverhead.com/ODU5N3wyMjYzfDMxNTk2Mnx2Mg==/5tv1n4b9/g

The 6ftoverhead.com domain is registered with godaddy and the website of this scam is hosted by them too:
http://whois.domaintools.com/6ftoverhead.com

Some complaints sent by email to abuse@godaddy.com should help to get this scam site taken down.

Hi All,

Don't know if this is the same thing but I signed up to a so called Google Revolution online business opportunity. They charged me £1.80ish or $3 for the privilege and claimed they would send me an information pack. No such pack arrived! I then saw a week later on my Credit Card account that an extra £46.65/over $70 had been taken by ~Rev goog henderson nv~. I contacted my credit card company and they put me through to the company claiming to be Google revolution. After a long and painful conversation with someone who could barely understand me they agreed to refund me the money and cancel my subscription!! Erm...What subscription??! I am yet to see if the money will be refunded. As a precaution I am cancelling my credit card.

I hope this helps. I will post again with more info once the money is refunded/not!
