Internet Fraud

I paid sum of money to GAMETESTERGUIDE.COM through paypal offering a job for testing video games and you will be paid for it. After I paid them, I never heard from them. I lost my money, I got no job as they offered and I lost my trust to Internet offers.

You have to use common sense! Its the old adage if something sounds too good it probably is. If people could really get paid to sit home and surf the internet don't you think a lot of people would? When was the last time you had to PAY money to get a job? Common sense!

NO, you're on your own. NEVER give money, online, to a company if you are NOT familiar with the company. If you have never heard of them, DON"T give them money. Internet scams are easy because they know people are gullible, and will, more than likely, NOT check-up on the company to see if they are a real company. If in doubt, always check with the Better Business Bureau: http: bbb.org There is no way to be protected from internet scams. It's "Buyer Beware!" If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is, and, always use common sense when buying something online. If it sounds too good to be true, don't give them your money.

It's the old saying: Caveat Emptor also known as Let the buyer beware. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Now that you've learned the hard way, why don't you open a Paypal dispute?

The best protection you can get is 100% Within YOUR CONTROL! 1. Don't believe every 'claim' or words you read online. 2. Use your own "Better Judgement" and if it sounds too good to be true, then it's nothing but a 'trick' into fooling you into giving up some of your money. 3. Watch out for yourself and don't expect someone to do it _For You_. 4. REALIZE that a _Large_ number of people have chosen Not To Work For A Living!! Their only income is stealing from you & me (Very Hard!) and the government and anyone else they can. 5. What sort of people steal women's purses and why? See #4 above. 6. Use COMMON SENSE!! 7. Don't live in a "Fantasy World" that so many choose to today. 8. =YOU= are _responsible_ for yourself. No One else is!!!

You should report this to the FBI http://www.ic3.gov/ You can also use this FBI report site: https://tips.fbi.gov/ You can also report it to the Federal Trade Commission. Pressure from the FTC can force eBay to clean up their act and do more to prevent these SCUMBAGS from using their site. https://rn.ftc.gov/pls/dod/wsolcq$.startup?Z_ORG_CODE=PU01

I don' t think there is an overriding agency specific to the Internet, but businesses are required to operate in accordance with the laws where they are located. Gametesterguide.com has used a private registration service so whois info is not reliable. Because this probably qualifies as international mail fraud, you could try the Federal Trade Commission or the Federal Bureau of Investigation. See link below for more info about gametesterguide.com

No agency can protect you unless you first of all exercise common sense. Hopefully you have at least learned from the experience.
