SI:Verified business owner

ad

I don't believe I'm braking any rules by what I'm about to ask, but just in case I am, I apologize and feel free to delete/transfer post, if so.

I have recently been the victim of a scam, along with a bunch of other eroids members. A high karma friend recommended a new source who was sending out legit samples. Based on his say so and the reviews that were there I placed an order, along with many other folk. The source was friendly and fast to respond, that is right up until he collected funds, then he vanished without shipping any orders to anybody.

The site is still open and the source is still advertising in other forums (from what I hear) and still taking sucker orders.

This source isn't a verified business owner, and yet got away with running promos through his site's landing page. Which is why a lot of people jumped in and took the bait.

The question, is a source more reliable /trustworthy if it has the Verified Buss owner label slapped on eroids?
What is the actual verification process? and if so, shouldn't all sources be verified owners soon as they come on eroids?

I gotta say, it sucks to get burned a scammer. I know it goes with the territory but it's personal and it sucks the hairy meatball when it happens to you.

Sorry about the rant, I hope this also warns future noobs from ordering from unverified scammers.

This is why we stress not dealing with unverified sources. You know a source is verified and not just submitted my someone web their discussion page has their eroids username and link to their profile. Next to it will say "Verified business owner". If a source was just submitted for review, they will not have an eroids account with source tag. Your best bet is to review this and warn others. Unfortunately nothing we can do for you. But the verification process is lengthy. We DO NOT just let any old source in. They have to have an extensive business history (at least 6 months) with a website with fully operational shoppin cart system. The web domain must be at least 6 months old. No new pop up sources. They are the biggest risk for scams!

Thanks for the response nitti. It's a mistake I and the other guys that got burnt will never make again.
I realize that even if a source is verified they can also go bust on ya (old proxy), but it does lend to more confident buying when verified.

He's a good guy and a mutual friend who was trying to help me out. I don't believe he meant to put me in harms way. I don't rat people out unless I have a very strong reason.

gotta be careful with all new sources especially non verified! Even verified can get you. Happened to me and serveral others when evo***** became verified several months back. Whats funny is I made order cause papaswole vouched for him and said he ordered 2 grand worth of hgh. Never put it together until after he was exposed. A new source should never turn down a small sample order if you ask. Sorry you guys got hit Im sure many of us here can relate.
