Bux.to and Charities
Friday, May 8, 2009Another organization has shown disapproval of bux.to. For us regular members, we all have seen the bux.to charities ad page in our advertisement area. Bux.to continuously reminding us that they give to charities.
Personally, I believe by doing such a deed a person or company should be humble about it. They shouldn't be using it as advertising or a marketing campaign. Especially on a site that is a scam. Charities have a hard enough time to get people to give, especially when it the term scam comes in to play.
So, like all companies that have dealings with bux.to, we contacted them and asked them if they knew about bux.to using their logos and and ads on their site. Well the response is damaging, and here is the reply and screenshot of the email we received from them.
Dear Mr. xxxx,
My name is Hugh Linnehan and I am the Corporate Partnerships Manager for SOS-Kinderdorf International, the umbrella organisation for 132 SOS Children?s Villages associations worldwide.
We received your inquiry and are particularly concerned about Bux.to and its use of our logo. We have no record whatsoever of any relationship between Bux.to and any SOS Children?s Villages association. The SOS banner used in the Charity Contributions section of Bux.to?s website http://www2.bux.to/contact.php is from many years ago, and we would not have given Bux.to this emblem.
* I tried contacting Bux.to on their customer service address (and included your name and the nature of your complaint), but the mail was returned as undeliverable because the mailbox was full. My mail was 5 kb in size.
* I am sure you have already looked at articles/blogs about this company?s reputation, and a Google search found some discouraging reports of fraud and scams. Bux.to is purportedly owned by David John Withers, who has been involved with numerous internet scams in the past.
* Through the ?Submit a new ticket? contact portal http://www.buxtosupport.com/index.php?a=add , we have asked Bux.to to immediately remove our logo and any reference to our organisation from their website and any other medium of communication.
We?ll see if these measures are successful; in the meantime, we understand and empathize with your situation, but have no relationship with Bux.to on any level. I am fairly certain the other charities named will have the same response.
Sincerely,
Hugh Linnehan
Again, bux.to caught using another company as a tool to scam others. So what did bux.to staff say, well it is obvious. Everyone is a liar, except for them. Yes, even poor Mr Hugh Linnehan reply does not seem to faze these people . Here are screen shots of bux.to's take on the whole situation.
Wow, so like I said, I guess everyone is a liar except bux.to. And do you see the response from AMC? A forum moderator would know the full name and details of the person who contacted this charity? I know you two are shacking up, but why would a moderator be gaining that info from a private email from a charitable organization? Then on top of that throwing threats around. Just in case you didn't catch what the bully said:
Guess what? This person was paid today! Wow, another person paid after they have gone after bux.to. Anyone see a pattern here? Maxx/Intenze, Chrissy, and now this person.I know full name of who did this in an attempt to defame and spread libel. It is one of Chrissie's group.
One more of such a stunt chirissie and that will be your last on this forum and I can't tell if your bux.to account would not be affected.
...
Way to go! And we will continue to contact anyone and everyone that bux.to uses as a vessel to scam would be victims. AMC if you think we are committing "Libel or Slander" by contacting these companies, THINK AGAIN my dear. Know what you are talking about before you speak. We have every right to warn and contact those affected. It is our right, and you can not stop us.
A message to everyone, please be sure to report bux.to at ever venue possible. In your own country, on the web, or the companies that bux.to deals with and uses. Here are a few places to report bux.to. I would suggest you make a email/letter and send it to these places. I will continue to add links at the bottom of this entry as links come available.

The Alt3rn4tiv3
Sunday, May 3, 2009Alt3rn4tiv3 is a bux.to Administrator that has been up to no good. At first I was giving this fella some slack for being young and caught in the middle of the bux.to drama. Or so we think. Which is not the case. Recently Alt3rn4tiv3 was caught " breaking and entering" into the ChitShack. By hacking into a user's account and using their screen name to gain access to private areas of the forum. Might I add that the user that he used to hack in was a non bux.to member. And has nothing to do with bux.to, and does not participate in the discussions about bux.to. Of course that is until she found out that her account was used and hacked by Alt3rn4tiv3. And she is not happy with Alt3rn4tiv3 or Bux.to. Not one bit.
All of this happened on April 10th. Of course this wasn't the only time that he has done this, he even went as far as admitting this to the owner and saying that he use to access the private areas of the shack daily. After the confession, measures were taken to prevent this happening again.
We also have reason to believe that he tried to access the shack recently in the past few days, and the owner of the Shack claims that he was unsuccessful this time around.
Yes, this is from a staff member at bux.to. The same staff that claim they don't care what goes on "in your little group". Again, their obsession has taken over. Two staff members have shown that they will do anything and everything to gain access to this private area of the Shack. One moderator (AMC) gained screen shots, or should I say "stolen goods" ...from the private areas of the Shack.
I am sure many of you know that Intenze/Maxx was paid within hours after he contacted djwsales@gmail.com, the owner of bux.to. Maxx, is a known member of the private area of the ChitShack. After he was paid, he wouldn't share info and rarely posted, however he was at the Shack for hours. I am sure for exchange for his payment he gave them screen shots of the private forum. A forum that bux.to and staff say they have no concern about.
Again, we have a person trying to break in to view this private area. This time by cracking passwords. Sound familiar? Alt3rn4tiv3, has turned out to be just as obsessed as AMC. You dont' see members hacking into bux.to forum, do you? No offense Alt3rn4tiv3, but you are not the only hacker out there. While I highly advise against such an act, just remember that what you do onto others can very easily be turned against you.
Speaking of turning, it turns out that the buxbb forum is not hosted by who we thought. While looking at bux.to and researching who hosts bux.to I decided to look at who hosts buxbb. Surprisingly the so called "Friend" that is hosting the bux.to forum is Alt3rn4tiv3. I guess the host did have control over those banner ads after all.
So who else does this alt3rn4tiv3@gmail.com have in common with? I did a google search on that email. Come to find out, alt3rn4tiv3 has a couple scam sites of his own. Don't believe me? Do a google search of alt3rn4tiv3@gmail.com. You will see the name Advercash, a well known scamming site.
And whats this??!! Another PTC! Look at the image above. Clickz.me?? Oh dear... So I look that one up and sure enough, another ptc site to his name.
I wouldn't doubt there are others. At any rate, one too many scams that he is involved in. Bux.to and now this? Then there is the hacking into the Shack.
With that said, I feel that this should be known to the public and use caution when dealing with these people. Do not invest or throw your money away on these sites where these people show up on. When dealing with these PTC sites and their crooked staff. They lie, they steal, and deceive you. They are all apart of this elaborate scheme, and by their actions they have no morals or ethics.
A message to Alt3rn4tiv3, I know you have tried to get my blog shut down. Let it be known that back ups are made after every entry. Just try your little stunt with me, and see how many new ones pop up in their place. All I have to do is press the upload button and a new blog appears with everything intact. Funny, how you and staff claim the Splinterwoman blog was done by a poser... if that was the case, why come after my blog, when you could have easily taken that one down?
Maybe you do have some ethics left in you. Or maybe, screwing with Goolge isn't a great idea either. It does not matter, I know the real answer. So, take heed to my warning, because the law is on my side. LITERALLY.
