Description
This company states they will send photography freebies for you to try out and then have you send in your review. It states all over there site pages that this is completely free, no monthly fee, no hidden charges, no contracts. But they want you to purchase a sticker for $6.71, that's how they make sure you will actually leave a review. No problem, I did that. Then I received an email to download The Photography Mastery Ebook Bundle. It states: "It is totally free! No credit card is needed, and no additional commitments, just an honest transparent offer." They offer a new freebie every 2 weeks, I believe. And you can accept it or not. I have not even had time to look at any offers, it had only been about 2-3 weeks since I joined and all of a sudden I get a PayPal notification that this company took $39.95 out of my account. I emailed in and asked why I was charged for something I did not order. They tried to say I signed up for some monthly subscription, that I never did. I hadn't even been on their site to look at anything yet. So they tried to offer me 50% off for this subscription I never ordered and told me they can not give me a refund. So they are a scam company, & I never received anything free from them, which is also false advertisement. So all together they scammed me $46.66 and I have never received anything from them. They have now kicked me out of the app they had me download as a client.
