PRECISION MEDIA - Beware, these are Matchmaker Marketing, Storm Media and Keyworld Media rebranded AGAIN. These are the the biggest fraudsters ever. Just search for any of their former names above and you'll see that they've had to flee to Malta to evade police, tax and every other regulatory body.

PRECISION MEDIA / MATCHMAKER MARKETING / STORM MEDIA / KEY WORLD MEDIA / PRECISION MEDIA / MATCHMAKER MARKETING / STORM MEDIA / KEYWORLD MEDIA - They are all the same business.

have you read all the bad press about this company? they change their name ever two minutes. it is impossible to keep up. first they were matchmaker marketing, then storm media, then keyworld media, then apex media, then precison media. they are owned by janson colclough, but the insolvency administrators suggest his real name is david janson colclough.

have just taken out a CMS based website with precision media, that is supposed to be all singing all dancing. however a month in and the website is going down the google rankings. precision media are chasing me for payment, as my last payment was 3 months ago they said that they cant take payments. Just spoke to my bank who said if they have your card details they can take payments whenever they like, however the month after the payment my debit card expired and my bank sent me a new one with a different long number, my bank said this is why they cannot take money as the card number is different. My bank also stated that i can cancel any debit card at anytime and they will stop all payments on that card and re-issue a new card with a different long number. So the moral is use a debit card, if your not happy, cancel your debit card and your bank will issue a new debit card with a different number which the scammers cannot access. Hope this helps everyone out there

I have been approached by Precision Media, Realco Building, Triq Il-Punent, Msida, Malta, MSD 1731
The person who e-mailed me is Claudia Brindley from the Accounts Team [protected] it said
HI, It’s Claudia from Precision Media. I spoke to you Friday in relation to a Google account that we have been operating for your company. The account costs £99.00+vat per month and is based on a 30 day rolling basis with a 30 day notice period to cancel the account.
As things stand your account has 1 renewal payment outstanding of £99 +vat due 11/04/2011.
I have never heard of this and they wanted card details, then a cheque sending to Malta? I have refused and asked for their Manchester address and previous accounts details - How can I be a month behind when I have never paid in the past? Will keep you informed.

Cuando la COmercial que te llama no consigue venderte nada, te pasa con su superior que intenta convencerte de la gran oportunidad que supone este servicio. A continuación, os indcio los datos de las personas que se han puesto en contacto con nosotro, para que los reconozcáis:

Tips for recovering your money: we got caught by them the same as most of you. You think you are buying a 1 month trial but you find that you are supposed to have noticed an email (which we never received) that had T&Cs tying you in. Anyway - Barclays have been great. They cancelled the future payments taken from our Debit Card. They have refunded 3 months of payments and have taken the dispute up with Precision Media - much better way than trying to deal with these fraudsters yourself. Good luck all.

Precision-Media, are now claiming they have bought the data base from Matchmaker/Zenth & co but using the same old rubbish to sell Google adverts - "oh we are so different" - "have two months for the price of one" " we reasearch your key phrases" etc etc. But for me bitten twice before so not again.

I have just been contacted again by Precision Media. Luckily I know all about this fraudsters, unluckily because I was caught out by Storm Media (One of their aliases) a few years ago. I basically told Mike Salt (Likely name!) to never contact me again. I said that I knew all about his little scam and have read lots about him. He replied 'do you believe everything you read on the internet?' to which I replied 'no, not at all but I believe what I've read about you!' I suspect he is the same person who claims to be Mike Lancaster. One day, these little pikeys (probably ex pats in Gibraltar or Spain) will get their comeuppance. What goes around comes around. A little prison time might do them good. I would take great joy in knowing that Mike Salt/Lancaster or whatever his real name is, is referring to his cell mate as Bubba or Big Dadio. IF YOU GET A CALL FROM ANY OF THESE COMPANIES TELL THEM WHERE TO GET OFF AND HANG UP!
Much love T

I wish I'd read this first. Signed up for a "trial month" for facebook. We said we didn't want to take it further & they have now taken 3 extra months from our account. Having a nightmare trying to stop the payments or track Precision down. I've given up on getting our money back, I'm just nervous they are still trying to take money in future & am arranging to close bank accounts to avoid it!

DO NOT IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCES give this 'company' your credit card details. They are a notorious scamming gang who have traded as Keyword Media, Matchmaker Marketing, Zenith Media amongst other names. They promise all kinds of things to extract your credit card details from you and from that point on will hammer away at your card. They'll continue to do this until the authorities are onto them, close the company down, reopen up using a different name and registered office address and continue to scam in the same manner. They are very convincing on the phone, but believe me Precision Media are complete con artists. It is run by one of Europe's most notorious fraudsters Jansen Colclough who is wanted for a string of frauds right across Europe. They are based in Malta so as to evade the numerous regulatory bodies who are chasing them. Don't think stopping your card will stop them taking payments either-as they are linked they continue to try to take cash despite any requests of cancellation. Don't touch them with a barge pole-they're awful people.

I agree with Dr Green Thumb. Just been called by an extremely high pressure guy from precisionmedia.eu for facebook advertising. When I gave slight buying signals, was passed onto Luke. Fortunately I resisted, but he was very rude at the end when realising I wasnt going to buy. Thanks guys for keeping us aware of these scams.

you actually left but a few names bamboo media and zenith media, i unfortunately used to work for them with there newest name precision media.

even when you walk in for a job with the firm (if you can even call them that) it feels asthough it screams SCAM. The aim of the company is to take your money and promise you the world

If you are called by them and you give them any sort ofinterest not even buying signals they will pass you onto a vicious little sales man called Luke Osbourne whom is absolutly ruthless on the phone and will stop at nothing until he has payments details, if you are told you are being passed onto a manager just hang up trust me.

Also if you do by chance fall into the trap and decide to give it a go or as Luke would say "give your head a whoble" and you decide to cancel after the renewal date you will have to provide them with 30 days writen notice to cancel the policy, so the impression that they give you that there is no contract is a bunch of nonsense.

They will also keep debiting your card once you cancelled your policy for a few months and will promise that they will refund them but i have never seen a single refund ever be prosesed.

Once you have cancelled this you will be passed on to the cancellations them, which is run by a Simon Miayeri who pretends to be the nice sales man who is only trying to help you out but at the end of the day if you dont want to make any payments he wll ignore you.

There are ex clients of theres that i have spoken to that are owed hundreds some even thousands of pounds, and the only advise that i used to get was that i need to take another payment from them for a month and we would give them a month free, no matter what circumstances a refund is not applicable.

The name is Jansen Colclough or that is what we are led to beleive the ceo is Mike Smith and the manger of Keyworld accounts is Louise Kerr, the accounts team is run by Pete Dunbavin

My advise is to stay away from any sort of company in this industry especially the ones mentions since they are a bunch of cowboys

It is obvious why companies would want to be on the first page of google since it is the biggest search engine there is but if you would like to persue that kind of campaign just open a google account directly with google.

Dr Green Thumb

These guys approached me to advertise with them, they are crooks and took me for everything they could. If I could find them i would cut every last cent they took from me out of there cold hearts. Don't ever do business ( i use this term lightly) with these guys. And if you do not say i didn't warn you. STAY AWAY.
