Has anyone heard of Benjamin Addict yet?
Or has anyone signed up yet? If so have you gotten your so-called 'guaranteed' signups?
My personal experience with Benjamin Addict so far:
I joined Thursday night, which was May 8, 2008 and I didn't email or tell a single person.
I wanted to put this thing to the test to see if it was the real deal or not.
(I'm not going to promote something that isn't legit)
Well on Friday night which was May 9th I got my first signup at about 6 p.m. Utah, USA time and then I got my second signup at about 7:20 p.m.
Remember, I didn't tell anyone about this, so my signups came from the so-called 'guarantee' and they came within 24 hrs.

I started a blog if you want to see the progress of my personal experience as the 'guinea pig'
What do you think or what have you heard?

Hi Tim,
I read a post earlier on this and looked at the site. It's an interesting but strange concept. There doesn't seem to be any real product, just a lot of money constantly changing hands - like smoke and mirrors.
I'll be interested in hearing of your progress from time to time.

Smoke and mirrors is usually not a good thing...

I agree. But it might be worth taking a look at.

Hi Mark!
Well, PayPal froze my account and I quickly got a hold of the Benjamin Addict people to find out what kind of operation they were running.
I updated my blog with their responses.
See what you think.
Tim

700 a week for a leads program is what your paying for. I can see the money potential though but if you get alot of drops in a week that could hurt.

Hey Tim, I took a look at your blog. I think you made the right decision. Chalk it up to experience. Your swift action in canceling and warning your downline is a credit to you.
Blessings, Angie

I think Benjamin Addict is a SCAM:
Note: A former member in my cancelled downline did this research
If this turns out to be a scam, I will put up a web page citing my investigation.
I just went to LocatePlus.com where I have an investigative account used for Private Investigation searches.
In looking up the US top earners here's what I found.
Sarah Stonehammer - no results. In fact, this search tool showed no Stonehammers in the US period.
White pages showed a Lic Stonehammer in WI but LocatePlus show that as non existent.
Jose Luetta - no results There are 24 Luettas in CA but no Jose and no Luetta in Ontario, CA.
I also did a WhoIs lookup on benjaminaddict.com but they have protected the information so I can't contact them directly.
Unless I get a response shortly from Benjamin Addict, I am going to lodge a complaint with PayPal. I have a screen shot of the webpage that I will include to aid them in their investigation.

Dear Tim,
I feel your pain when it comes to the subject of BenjaminAddict.com because i joined back in May, and 363 to date have joined through my website and till this day have not seen one thin dime paid to me in commissions! I think it's safe to say that it is a scam!
I filed a report against them on ripoff report under tsutherland7 and i also have started a blog called spotlight..dedicated to them as well

Hi Tracy,
Yes Benjamin Addict is a complete fraud.
Thank you for reporting them.
Let's hope these guys are taken to jail.
We'll come back from this stronger than ever. Thanks for your empathy.
Let's never turn into the kind of scum these Benjamin Addict guys have become.
Champions always Triumph in the end and Losers like these Benjamin Addict thugs will get what they deserve in the end.
Tim

Ok, not a scam. There is a product!! You pay $100/week and receive 10,000 leads. So the product is the leads. You can use those leads for anything you would like.
I personally signed up and became the third package owner. I waited for my trial though. It actually took me 30 days to join but you are allowed that without loosing your downline. By day 29 I had received 329 sign-ups. About 15 of them became upgraded members. I purchased the package and received 10 active members. I now have about 25 active members. I pay $100/week not a day! and still receive my leads. Everything is pretty much going through AlertPay now and I have seen no problems. I get about 5-10 free sign-ups per day and about 1 active every two weeks. Pretty good deal if you ask me. I personally use the hell out of my leads too!
Anyway, those are my thoughts
