This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I paid a discounted price and when clicking pay now, the money was debited from my account but the website said operation aborted - unable to find page! Now I have tried to contact the [protected]@automaticprofitsystem.com and have received no response. So I paid $50 for absolutely nothing! This is a scam of the worst kind, preying on those that are already in financial distress and looking for a way OUT of debt. Thanks a freakin million Ryan Jackson for taking the money you were promising to help me make more of! This is a sad world we live in where people can just advertise lies all day and get away with it - I have now seen several other complaints of this kind and am wondering who can stop this business. The bank statement showed my money going to Aotumatic Wealth Solutions ion Naples Florida, they need to be terminated and held accountable for the trash they advertise and the money they've stolen!

OMG I just got a call from the automated profit systems and they told me if I paid $1.97 for three days I can start my own business. The young lady was talking very fast and I had to keep asking her if she could please talk a little slower because she had a very strong accent. She said after 3 days if I like using this website they would debit my account of $97.00. I told her I had to check out this company before I gave her my personal banking information. I am so glad I followed my instincts. They would have sure got me.

OMG! thank you everyone for your post. I just got a call from these people and they told me I had to only pay $1.97 for 3 days and if I like it they would be debiting $97.00 out my account every month. I told the girl who was talking very very fast that I had to research this company before I give them my banking account information. This just don't make no sence at all the way people try to scam you. thank god I followed my instincts and looked at the reviews.

I'm glad I didn't fall for this scam and did my research about the company. I followed the link that glued2it posted www.paiddaily.us and found out they are traded in the New York stock exchange (PPD), A+ rating with the BBB, listed #78 of the best small companies by Forbes magazine and aired a show " A Business For Today" on Fox Business news Jan. 1 2011. the URL to that is http://www.pplsuccesschannel.com I found nothing but good about this company! They will HELP you and TEACH along the way to be successful. They say be in business for yourself, not by yourself.
This is a company I can TRUST and I can speak to someone 1on1 at any given moment!

By the way "Mr. Abrams" I'm not one for revenge..but I hope you know you and all the other dicks you work with and for are going to get what's coming to you! Makes me sick to think you people can sleep at night stealing innocent people's money that are just looking for a better way to provide for their families! You guys are sick. Justice will be served.

Dear Paul Abrams:

For real? You can't even spell?! Some "Customer Support Manager" you are. If you thought all these angry people and the person who posted this complaint didn't trust you in the first place, once they see your simple grammar errors, they're really not going to trust you than! I mean I'm staring right at the caution statement above this comment box that reminds us all, "Please check text spelling before submitting a comment"! But I guess that doesn't really matter much. What matters is the website that you work for actually thought that ALL Americans were dumb enough to fall for its scam (which clearly they're NOT, because like some of them I, too did a little research) and people aren't as dumb as you think they are! What really chaps my ### is that first you steal millions of dollars from people, than go and post a comment lying about how "would be happy to issue you complete refund"! The website you work for is in fact a lie, you're all thieves, and you've completely ruined the name "Jessica Holcomb" (which by the way apparently lives here in Tucson as well). APS sucks, you're a ###ing turd, get the hell out of here!
Sincerely,
Samantha

glad i found this site; this just made my whole day! what ### holes?! the things some idiots will go through to steal peoples money! thank God for websites like this! God bless America! haha

Jessica also works out of Kent, Washington! Someone needs to seriously do something about people like this. Ive been seeing the post for this add for over 6months now and still no one has done anything about it? MSNBC should investigate this asap before another struggling family gets sucked into this and loses more then a $100!

I was happy for what I thought waste of My Time, when I decided to check out the company.. Gee that was going to
take the upfront fee but giving a rebate., I didn't see a contact number etc. So after reading everyone who did this
and got nothing, it stopped me in my tracks. Thank you and Sorry sooo, many lost. I was just searching to add some
income in the household after I had left 20years in working in a Nursing Home. Due to MS I need a job at home and
I consider my time has a value, SO, Please Scammers, go away. you make True Work out there leaving people not
sure and don't know what is Real or Not..., this world I am sure will see more and more of this., Anyone out there
that can mention a true site for in home work, i would deeply appreciate it. thanks sharon

Glad I came across this post. What I am wondering is why hasn't this business been shut down? How can they keep getting away with posting that they have been on the news in different areas? I guess they change locations constantly and hide behind bogus business names or something. I almost bought the program but it sounded like it was written for naive people so that's why I checked the reviews.

In reference to the complaint. Internet Sales Institute stands behind its services. We offered this client over 50 percent of her money back. The client made the decision to move forward on her own merit. We will go to any extent to make our clients happy. We provide one one help on a number of different levels. Our coaching sessions are at least 30 minutes long. Clients also have unlimited help from 8:00 am mst-8pm mst to get help via phone, e-mail and live chat. The problem when people start any new venture is they expect immediate results. At Internet Sales Institute we gaurantee to work with every client until they recover their full initial investment. There are no such things as get rich quick schemes. Sometimes when clients sign up and realize they do have to put time and effort in they start to second guess their decision. We communicate to all students that it does take time and effort to build a business. We work diligently with every client to accomplish their goals and lay a solid foundation for their online ventures. There will be frustration at times but giving up on a program within one week, no one would ever succeed. Growing pains happen for all new start up businesses. We do business with people all over the world by phone. We stand behind our gaurantee and all services we provide to clients. We are ready and willing to address any concerns that any past, present or future clients may have! WE STAND BEHIND OUR GUARANTEE!

I, too, have been scammed. I paid $391 for this. It stated they have a 100% guaranty, or your money back. I contacted them, and requested my money returned, and they gave me confirmation numbers. I have contacted my bank, and still have not received the credit. I call them almost daily, only to get run around. You can't get to talk to the person you ask for. You have to expain your story to everyone that answers the call. The only satisfaction I received was an e-mail from their supposed accounting department, stating refund was approved by the supervisor, Alseem Samuel. The supervisor, that sent me this, Chamalis Ortiz, will never come to the phone. Yesterday, she resent me the original e-mail again, that was dated October 20, 2010. This was supposed to show that she followed up on the matter. The people that work there put me on hold for 10 to 15 minutes, each time I call. One person told me there is only about 20 people in the office, so I guess they are all getting a good laugh out of this. I am calling the BBB, and thinking about obtaining an attorney.

Thanks to you all who took the time to warn us of our impending doom. I did the same as many of you, I read about Jessica Holcomb's success when the little birdie said " doesn't this sound too good to be true". So I was about to google or find Jessica on F.B. when I found you guys instead. Thank God for being "Watchmen on the wall"(net). May God give Ryan his financial collapse or change his heart and save him.

Jesica is also from Shrevport, Louisiana. All these ads are scams that come up with names and they popup everywhere and they make sure that the locations be near you. I have loss plenty money with scams and had stop looking for work at home jobs but I got this email from news report 1. I decided to check it out and then I searched for complaints. The few legit work at home jobs are hard to find.

Scams like this are so easy to fall into. The sales pitch can be really convincing. Honestly you can't be lazy and think the computer is going to make you rich while you just go out and spend your money. If you want to work from home, you need to be working on and offline. You have to be proactive.
Stick with the companies that have been around for a long time. Amway and Herballife for example, I know you have heard of them.
The best Network Marketing I have ever experienced is PPL. They have the best compensation plan, Have been around since 1972 and Publicly Traded in the NYSE!
They have stood the test of time, they have been listed in every major money magazine. Forbes lists PPL as the top 100 small business’s.
I can go on and on about 3rd recognition with PPL. The fact is, do you know any work from home businesses that have these credentials? Do you know any of them that are publicly traded? It's pretty hard to run an Illegal Legal business! For more information go to; www.paiddaily.us

http://news1reports.com/default1004c.asp?view=2&funnelid=F180&a=b&ep=N&siteid=APS&vid=

I was very tempted and thought $49 wasn't bad but the "big" voice inside of me said check it out and so I did. I found this site and am so happy that I did so. Thanks to everyone for posting here. I still have my $49 dollars in my pocket. I hope that others that fell for this scam get their money back. I ask, how can the people that pull these "scams" sleep at night?! God help them...

Jessica Holcomb also lives in Canada, what a gal. Maybe APS is such an amazing system that you can own and live in virtually every city in the world. Hope she home schools or she must not see her kids much...oh wait, with all the money she's making she probably has a personal tutor to educate her kids. On the other hand why do her kids need an education, just teach them how to use the APS scam and they'll never need to work a day in their life...things that seem too good to be true usually are (unless of course your name is Jessica Holcomb)
