Yea, unfortunately one has to learn. Part of it was I had never come across a sponsor that rips people off before, out of tons of em. Plus it was not to be my first check from them and they really kept me hanging on the way they answered their emails.
Dirty Duckets are still probably scamming other webmasters outa money. Still up at:
http://www.dirtyduckets.com/homepage.html
Even though their contact and whois info is wrong.
Only other thing info I have is:
yvette@dirtyduckets.com
Eric
Aim: Dirty Duckets
ICQ: 120269554
Yvette
Aim: Dirty Duckette
ICQ: 67106883
Probably old info.
I guess, Eric is the owner. I ran across another thread from someone who got fucked by dirtyduckets.com wanrning to not trust him, after the fact.
From what it sounds they are now doing non-porn. That is what was said on Netpond, in a post where they were trying to sell their program.
Synergy Investments Inc. Was the name on their checks, and contact info on that corporation is not correct with the state of WY.
I would not want to be this owner of Dirtyduckets, still operating any business at all on the web in porn or not, when he gets what he deserves for doing bad business.
They need to make good on this honestly clear their name and pay anyone else that is screwed NOW.
