Companies that spam the Q Boards

JDJ555 — Wed, 09 May 2018 20:28:21 GMT

I can't understand why a business would expect anyone to want to trust or patronize them after they keep spamming the Q boards to get free advertising (repeatedly even tho their posts get closed and so they know they're violating terms of service here). Sleazy unsavory advertising practices, "cheating the system" with their made up nics and spam.
I keep seeing "Jclub" doing this so I looked them up. They were "NoMoreRack" (which had terrible reviews and an F rating with the BBB and pages of unresolved complaints), then changed name to "Choxi," then went off-line -- vanished -- leaving customers and creditors in the lurch, then went bankrupt, now renamed "Jclub". I guess that way they can claim to have been in business for several years. The more they spam here the sleazier they look, jmo. There are plenty of other reliable businesses out there that don't use sketchy unsavory tactics to lure customers.

Anyway customers need to know their history imho. Buyer beware as always.

(ETA: They were in "ELECTRONICS" FORUM when I posted this)

Not sure any one is SPAMING the board I have never seen either of these companys, could be your IP spaming you with their ads

Interesting. I've never seen anything about JClub on this board either.

@I am still oxox

For the past few days, Korean spam BOTS found their way here. The MODs were right on top of them. Haven't seen any though for 48 hrs.

I reported three of them in the Electronics forum this morning, and they were removed. I just checked and only see the three that were removed. They're marked "Moved."

I reported the 3 in electronics about 1am (MDT) so they must have stayed up quite awhile. I guess there's no mod on duty overnight.

@I am still oxox. They were most definitely on our boards. I think most of us are smart enough to know the difference.

I've seen them a few nights in the past few weeks.

Agree that seeing a company stoop to that kind of advertising (leeching off QVC's boards) doesn't inspire me to do business with the company.

I remember the bad reviews of Nomorerack. Bad.

i think she means they advertise by pretending to be a poster. Look at thread titles.
