Please wait for a site operator to respond ...

76.79.190.76:  Natalie 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Hello, how can we assist you today? 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Are you there? 

76.79.190.76:  I am trying to download the free list of emails but it's telling me I can't until I pay? 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Ok, simply select paypal as a payment, and checkout. You will not be required to pay. The list is free. 

76.79.190.76:  That's what I thought ok...we were wondering if you have any company emails? We are a wholesale company and need retailer emails, do you guys have that? 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Certainly! We have many business email lists, one moment while I take a look... 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Ok, one of the lists we have up now is http://www.topseo.net/buy-email-address-lists/prodView.asp?idproduct=43 business and investing...  

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  I will email the product development team and ask that they compile a "business" list and get it live on the site. This usually happens within 12-24 hours. 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Would you like us to email you when the new lists are live? 

76.79.190.76:  Well were a clothing company so I'm not sure if that would be the right emails, we don't need any investors. What kind of business emails are they, like in what industry? 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Oh, I mis understood.  

76.79.190.76:  And how much would it cost and for how many emails would we get 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Please tell me what you are looking for. Define "company" emails please. 

76.79.190.76:  Well we are a fashion wholesale company so we would need retailers, buyers, and other fashion industry emails. Do you have anything like that? 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Certainly. 

76.79.190.76:  Is that something that is already prepared or would that be something that would need to be compiled?

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  If you look at that page, you will see some nice opt in lists. There are prices and counts of email addresses you get for the price. 

76.79.190.76:  So the clothing retailers list, those are customer emails from retail stores? 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  No, not only customers from store, we will have store's emails along with interested customers. 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  Would you like me to send the request through to product development and have them email you when the list is live on the website? 

76.79.190.76:  Oh ok so that would be on all the shoppping lists? 

76.79.190.76:  Yeah go ahead and have them email me when it's ready to go 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  No, the shopping lists are separate products. We will add a new product to the site that is what you are looking for. If you want to purchase it, you are more than welcome to. Each product is it's own list of targeted, categorized emails. 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  What is your email address please? 

Howard @ TopSEO.net:  What email address would you like us to mail the product notification to please? 

76.79.190.76:  xxx@cxxxxxxx.com

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Are you going to call back without your caller id blocked? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Hello? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  

(This is a conversation inside a conversation. I was messaging with a friend of mine about the deal, and pasted it into the live chat to let the scammer know that we were talking about him being a scammer, without me actually calling him one.)

Rickey Helsel says:
Hey man.
TimMathews.com says: Good norning. Just getting to work?
Rickey Helsel says:
Nah, I've been here for about 15 minutes. People were waiting at the door....
TimMathews.com says: Right on, we just got a 250 in, but I think it is fraud. PP didn't hold it, but I have...
Rickey Helsel says: I see. I hope it's not
.TimMathews.com says: I think it is. IP address doesn't match location, I called the #, and straight to vm. I told the person to call me, we are on live chat, and he called 5 minutes later from a choppy line, call id blocked... too many red flags.
Rickey Helsel says: Yeah, for sure.
TimMathews.com says: So, at this point, I am going to leave the payment in paypal, continue to try to get hold of the actual person who owns the paypal account and go from there. If it is legit, I will release the dl. If it is not, I will refund the payment. 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Well, what do you want me to do? 

66.90.75.96:  hey sorry i went to restroom sorry again 

66.90.75.96:  i jts need the link to down load the email i order for  

66.90.75.96:  and if you people did't want o sell for me no probelm you can refound my money into my card ok? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Paypal have called me, I gave them your email address, focussolution1999@yahoo.com and hanna_richard01@yahoo.com. I have also provided them with your IP address, 66.90.75.96 and given them access to my vonage online account so they can trace the telephone number you called from. 

66.90.75.96:  i can do morthan wht i hv done today ok? 

66.90.75.96:  okay fine 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  I hope everything is fine, I want you to be able to send maisl. 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  mails* 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  We can only wait until paypal resolve it at this point. 

66.90.75.96:  so are u not going to the link for my order now please 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  I can't send you the link until paypal release the funds to me. Do you think we are absolutely RETARDED? 

66.90.75.96:  i hv my card with paypal so what do u want me to give u again  

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  No, I need to wait until paypal release the funds to me. Their fraud detection & prevention team called me and they are holding the funds until their investigation is complete. 

66.90.75.96:  but i told u already i just need to use the emails right now but if its not okay with u no problem 

66.90.75.96:  okay no problem 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  I can certainly understand your urgency, you are truly insane if you think we will release the download before we receive payment. 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Do you understand the situation? 

66.90.75.96:  yes yes i do 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Fantastic. I will call you on 816.984.5811 and tell you how to download the 200 million email addresses. Thank you! 

66.90.75.96:  ok 

66.90.75.96:  do u hv my found now? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  I do not understand jibberish. What did you ask? 

66.90.75.96:  do you have my found now be course i want to change my mind and look for somewhere else to buy from right now 

66.90.75.96:  i,m tire here  

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Do I have your found now? LOL! Change your mind all you want. 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Yeah, buying email addresses with stolen paypal accounts and stolen credit cards is hard work 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  I can understand why you would be so tired. 

66.90.75.96:  i,m just like to know  

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  im tire too.  

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  tire of morons thinking they can get one over on me. I'm 1337, I will 0wnzed you. I am the famous bloody gums botbyl! 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Don't you know who I am? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Why did you get so quiet again? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Google translator having a bit of trouble with those last couple of messages? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Hello? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  McFly? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Are you there McFly? 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  I have news for you! 

Tim @ TopSEO.net:  Hello, it is about the email address list you want to download... 

The visitor has left the chat. 

The chat is ended 

 

Now we did get the payment, and paypal have did not flag it as fraud. But, only time will tell. As soon as we withdrew the payment into our company account, paypal flagged it, stopped the deposit and refunded it to the unfortunate lady's credit card.

All is well that ends well.

Life on a Tightrope

by Tim Mathews 23. February 2010 18:24

I once read of a man who was a tight rope walker... His story inspired me very much. Below is that story:

Jean François Gravelet, "The Great Charles Blondin", was a famous French tightrope walker and acrobat.

Blondin's greatest fame came in 1859 when he attempted to become the first person to cross the rushing and roaring waters of Niagara Falls on a tightrope.

With a balancing pole, Charles Blondin walked across the 335m long tightrope in only five minutes. He went on to walk across the falls several times, each time with a different theatrical flair. Later crossings were made in a sack; on stilts; on a bicycle, in the dark with sparks flaring from his pole tips; with his hands and feet manacled; and sitting down halfway to cook an omelet!

On one such occasion a large crowd gathered as word went out that Blondin was going to attempt yet another incredible feat. A buzz of excitement ran along both sides of the river bank. The crowd “Oooohed!” and “Aaaaahed!” as Blondin carefully walked across one dangerous step after another -- blindfolded and pushing a wheelbarrow.

Upon reaching the other side, the crowd's applause was louder than the roar of the falls! Blondin suddenly stopped and addressed his audience: "Do you believe I can carry a person across in this wheelbarrow?"
The crowd enthusiastically shouted, "Yes, yes, yes. You are the greatest tightrope walker in the world. You can do anything!"

"Okay," said Blondin, "Who will get in the wheelbarrow..."

No one did!

It’s one thing to believe, it's another thing to take a step of faith based on that belief. Belief must be followed by action if it is to take you where you want to go!

Later, on Sept 15, 1860, the world was amazed as Blondin made a crossing carrying his manager, Harry Colcord on his back.

Many people put their faith into people every day. I am often praised and told I can accomplish anything. I am told I can do very well. All I need is for someone to get into my wheel barrow...

Do you want to get into the wheelbarrow?

Waking up in the morning to 5 PAID orders in the inbox is a wonderful thing. It looks as though TopSEO.net is really starting to move now. God bless us all. It was 8 am when I checked the site, and already had 5 paid orders. 4,400 visitors since midnight. Nice. The day has just begun.
