How can you tell when a Ponzis in trouble?
When they start telling everybody they aren't a scam!
Taken from their Official Facebook page on 29th June 2016:

'So let me take time to explain the logic behind changing revenue shares and what it means for your business.
Think of CI like any other traditional business which is legal and legitimate...
Imagine you have a shop and you sharing your profits with your customers..
Now ask yourself a basic question ?
Will your profits be same everyday or will be different everyday ?
Is there a minimum or maximum ?
Obvious answer is different...and there is no minimum or maximum though there can be expected minimum or maximum....
That's what separates a Revenue Share from illegal ponzi's , HYIP's.......as there timeline is fixed and no wonder all of them either close or get closed by the government as to sell investments you need to be registered with local authorities in every country and follow very strict guidelines...
Now compared to that a rev share is a different ball game all together
First of all for your $25 you get a legitimate product which is traffic and there is no fixed cost for traffic - it's up to us on how much we charge for it.....
So here in Click Intensity , you get 1000 silver coins = 200 minimum impressions in the traffic exchange for any product/website you have...
Next Since you help the company in growing by logging in and clicking ads everyday which you anyhow do in any online website you surf like google , facebook etc - we as a company decide to share our profits with you......and there is a limit for that i.e each $25 purchase yields $30 and stops or else we will go bankrupt...lol...
Now like a real business - our profits change everyday and hence the revenue which you get paid changes everyday and at times multiple times in a day..
Bottomline - you need to stop looking at these figures every hour , multiple times in a day as there is nothing you or we can do about it.....
Those figures are calculated using very complex algo's which calculate system wide profit and losses every few hours......
Only thing which you should be concerned about is you clicking your 10 ads daily , getting your rev shares and $25 expiring into $30....
The daily revenues and time lines will always vary ....sometimes will be less , sometimes will be more ........
Now what we had for first 90 days i.e an average figure per 30 minutes was just a make shift arrangement as to develop these complex algo's from the programming side takes a lot of working man hours and we first wanted to get the launch in place and then all basic tech stuff and financial stuff........
But now it's all done and live and exciting....
This is what makes Click Intensity a legit revenue share and this is what ensures the longevity of the company and ensures that we are around for years to come.....
Hope this helps
Tag your entire team in this post so they all understand this.....
We are almost done with Automation Of Bitcoin Payout Withdrawls And Integration Of Few Other Processors...Stay tuned...Exciting week ahead'

  ********

That post came from the OFFICIAL Click Intensity Facebook page but the owners don't seem to bothered with it.
Here is a selection of the comments lifted from the page today (02.07.2016)

 'I can guess Advcash had a problem, right? Although I paid BTC to buy Gold Coins, my payment status has been Pending for almost 9hours. Still now it maintains Pending. So, according to the passage above, I can get through it during weekend?'

'Anybody who can provide me with support teams email add/website. Im not able to access my account for several weeks now. Thanks in advance.'

' my click intensity site is not open after login in my id and password correct'

'FOR THE LAST 8 DAYS I HAVE BEEN SURFING AND NOT GETTING CREDITS EMAILED AT: care@clickintensity.us NO ANSWERS CAN SOMEONE PLEASE FIX IT?? USER CELLOPINO'

And I really love this one!: 


'Unliking this page, its not monitored or administered as well as our REAL Page, - I won't be back. I will stick with the Real Deal and if people are dead serious about Click Intensity they would join the real Group with over 30,000 members and the best Owner who is transparent and his team are the best. https://www.facebook.com/groups/cicorp/

Way to go supporting your Ponzi guys!

Keep buying those Ad packs people! Lets keep this scam going for another few months!
Take it away Nick:

** Update **

Super stoked for what's coming next for each one of you here in Click Intensity !

Hopefully in next 7-14 days our tech crew will be able to launch hourly slots for login ads and also our FB Shares product which will be a industry game changer

Already we are selling daily slots of login ads and I personally believe the moment we launch hourly slots , sales will shoot to the roof as then each one of you will be able to buy time slots......

We are 120k + members strong now - a milestone which only 0.01 % of companies in this industry ever achieve and from here on we will hit 200k members in next 6 months and 500k members in next 12 months and 1 million members in next 18 months

People who decide to focus right now and give it their all will be the ones who will gain the ultimate time and financial freedom with Click Intensity !

Shoutout to leaders like Lucinda Lim-Wong , Fraank Foo for taking initiatives to start weekly CI presentations in Singapore and Valerie Ann Chamos for starting fortnighly CI presentations in philippines...

We are already getting requests from leaders from UK , Italy , India , Poland , Malaysia to start CI presentations also..

very soon we will be a global household name......

Watch out for it..

This is the time you want to focus 100 % on doing only 3 things everyday -

1.Buying as many silver packs as u can and work towards the ultimate goal of 4000 packs

2.Clicking your 10 ads everyday

3.Spreading your click intensity affiliate links everyday - the more people create their free accounts with you the more money u will make in the long run - Period .

We will do our part and make sure you do your part !

See you all on top

Click Intensity is having withdrawal problems. What's happening?

http://taratalkstoday.blogspot.co.uk/2016/09/click-intensity-traffic-monsoon-effect.html


17th October 2016
No payments now for over thirty days.

'Any advertising you do now would be a waste of time in my opinion. With withdraw delays now over 30 days for most members waiting to receive their requested withdraws of a very small $100 limit. The first thing any new person that you would like to introduce the business to is going to do is ask and look to see if Click Intensity is paying out in a timely manner to those that need their money and turn in a withdraw request. What they will find is that NO, Click Intensity is NOT paying out in a timely manner. Sure Nick Johnson can tell us all about what great things are coming, but that does not change the fact of what is happening right now in the name of "Security". Total BS. Nick, the members as a whole are not stupid. PAY the members what they're owed.'

'you're obviously a smart guy, so it befuddles me as to how you just accept without question that the withdraw delays are simply because of security and a manual process. They (CI) could have, if they wanted to and there was not something else going on, put on more staff to process the manual withdraws and not let it get to the point of most members waiting 30 plus days for their money (which is not only hurting the member, but CI as well). It doesn't take 2 to 3 weeks to train new people (as mentioned by management) for the finance dept. Most people know their way around a computer and could be instructed as to what to look for in a day or two to be able to process withdraws. It's not rocket science (check to see if the member is verified and the withdraw request is legit, click a few computer keys, on to the next request). I wont go into what some members (big players in the company) are behind the scenes saying and feeling about CI and also the rumored connection between Coinomia and CI, but believe what you want Ian, CI needs to do right by it's members and with holding their money for 30 plus days in the name of security is not it. There's other businesses and rev shares in the same space as CI that don't seem to have a problem paying out to their members in a timely manner.'

17th December 2016
Black December is upon Click Intensity. Withdrawals are sparse and pitiful and the mouthpiece of CI, Tara Mish is telling everybody not to withdraw until you reach 4000 packs. Which in Ponzi speak means it's as good as over.
I have a new Facebook page devoted to CI now, why not pop over and like it!

25th January 2017
Click Intensity is closing and a new PONZI is taking it's place:
https://taratalkstoday.blogspot.co.uk/2017/01/click-intensity-relaunch.html

7th  March 2017

ALL PENDING WITHDRAWALS ARE CANCELLED!
The 'King of Ponzi Spin' has cancelled all pending withdrawals and told all his loyal followers that they can buy his fake coins with that money instead:

'Our new investor board after repeated requests have decided to absorb the pending withdrawls also !
So very shortly your pending withdrawls will start getting cancelled and you will be able to purchase ads.cash coins using your gold coins balance once we launch in about 3 weeks.......
Its time for all of you to reach out to every one in your CI downline , get them pumped about the vision of Ads.Cash and tell them what we have coming
Ads Cash is now at 3000 signups a day and in next few days we will start crossing 5000 signups a day and then 10000 signups a day
People are loving the vision ,the concept , the idealogy behind it , the marketing side of entire company and grabbing on to the chance of 10xing to 100xing their wealth in the next 12 months using ads.cash as a platform as the coin goes from ICO launch price of 2.5 cents to $2.5 and beyond.....
Get focussed , take massive action and lets make 2017 your best financial year ever'
Nick Johnson' 
No morals. No shame.

I had an interesting talk a few days ago with the group admin who is completely convinced that I am something awful even though when I realized what was going on with CI, I was the one who blew the whistle on the whole thing. Funny how people forget that part.

I fully support your campaign against Nick. I believe it was his full intention to mislead me from the start, and mislead he did. I thought it through over and over and at first I thought he just went bad after the money came in but no, he set it up that way from the start. I believe people who have deceitful hearts are like vipers in the grass! They are predatory and have no regard for others. He cost me more than you can possibly know. I know he cost all of you dearly too and for that I am deeply sorry.

I put my heart and soul into working with you all. I wanted to nothing more than give everyone a real chance to make a better better life, to build a legacy. I was devastated when it all came crashing down. My first thoughts were of all of you and others who are not here yet. One particular member came to mind, who was building her team very well so she could be home with her precious little baby. I cried for her. I cried for all of you.

Now is a new season and a new chance to reach what we had hoped for, what we believed to begin with. We are people who hope, people who work, who love, who try! Now it is time to succeed!

No more "launches" for me because who knows what's going to happen. I have no time for uncertainties. I have settled in with a company that is over 30 years old and offers all the transparency, compensation, and ease of use you could ever hope for! It's a blessing to me and my team, who are doing very well with it!

I hope you all get the most out of life and out of each day! There is so much awesomeness that to linger in anything else is illogical. Bless you all, even your very angry admin. 😇😉

Tara Glassia Tara, I always support affiliates who come over from the dark side and realise they've made a mistake, but I'll make an exception in your case. You're covering your arse, pure and simple. You bullied affiliates shamelessly when you were on the FB admin team and your behaviour was disgraceful. If you really want to make amends, stop pushing these Ponzi scams to your downline and then go to the authorities and make a detailed complaint against Nick. You must know the whole inside workings of CI. Then hopefully the whole CI/Adcash scam can be closed down, it's the only way these people will get their money back.

Tara Mish My behavior was disgraceful? Wow! I put my heart and soul into that group. You can judge however you chose. I did the best I could with what I was given to work with. I am not pushing in ponzi anything to anyone so I don't even know what you are on about there.... And since you seem to have missed how things went, I left after insisting that they as the HoC I needed to know the inner workings of the company and I needed full transparency from them. I personally found a SOLUTION for the pay out problem and they refused it! That is when I relized they were profiting from the "problems". That's when I blew the whistle.That's when I got cut off and kicked out and smeared through the mud. I was trying to stick up for the members! For you! For all of you! So judge me however you see fit. My conscience is clear. Have a good day. :)

Tara Mish BTW, don't you think if I had anything to hide or if I actually did something wrong I would have gone off hiding or something like those guys? Heck after that went down Ankur's wife was calling asking if I might know where he is! He split! She saw him more on FB live than in person and he would not even tell her where he was! She is a darling woman too! My heart breaks for her! OMG! What he put her through! 😱😱 I'm not the one with fake addresses and shell corporations to give false appearances. Through it all I have never hidden or backed down or changed my story or rejected people affecteded by the debacle. Think about that.

Tara Glassia It isn't an opinion Tara, its fact. CI is, was and always will be, a scam. You were called out about the payment processor freezing CI funds, a LIE. And what did you do? You BANNED the poster. You bullied anybody who asked simple questions about CI, telling them to stop being 'negative' - when what you really meant was that it stopped YOU recruiting others into the scam. How about YOU do the right thing and report all of CI activities so that all those poor people you suckered into this scam may be able to get some money back.

Tara Mish Far more impacting consequences will come from my course of action in due time. I don't know about everyone getting their money back but justice will fall on those guys and it will be like a thief in the night. 🌛🌛🌛
I was told to ban those people instantly and many times got chewed out for giving "too many chances" to "negative people". I was insisting on CI's transparency with me so that i could address those things... they refused. I found a free and fluid peer to peer payment system to fix the payment issue. I sought it out to fix it. They refused. I was done and went on live to tell about it so you tell me... Where is my integrity? Because I did the right thing and I can say it before God and man without shame. 
I am now sharing a proven and 100% legit program so that people can have total assurity that they are safe and profitable. That's is MY OWN intent and has been from the beginning, I think you know that somehow. 
It's obvious you got scammed pretty bad somehow or you wouldn't be on a vendetta with everything that might be a scam. I am sorry for your loss. Whatever it was. CI ended up costing me more than they ever paid me. I have been taken for more than you'd believe. I understand the feeling of betrayal. I am not a villain. I am a networker, a mother, a wife, a daughter, a soul. I only ever work for the best and hope for the rest. Take care. :)

Tara Glassia But there wasn't a payment issue Tara. Advcash didn't freeze funds. It was a lie. This is what you said at the time: Tara Mish‎ to ClickIntensity
4 hrs · 
Do you know that Advcash employees have incentive to freeze your funds?
Advcash employees can participate in an advcash stock options program.What does that mean? It means Advcash employees get special deals on Advcash stock and reap all the benefits when the stock prices rise!
How do stock prices rise?..The more money ADVcash makes,the more money an Advcash employee can make!!
Since we know Advcash make money off of our money,what better way to keep earning more money for the company than FREEZING CUSTOMER ACCOUNTS??
Thanks Advcash,we got it!!'

And then you kept on pushing those purchases didn't you - telling people not to withdraw, they weren't very keen on your advice!


Tara Mish:
'Please remember to USE YOUR SILVER COINS for text ads! There was another member today asking me what to do with the coins... Guys, use the training videos and get to know the system. You can not maximize a system that you have not educated yourself on.
Make ads= Click ads= use premium ads= compound your earnings and avoid withdraws until you reach 4000 packs.'
Replies:
'why do you say things like that Tara? Avoid withdrawals until you reach 4000 packs? Were you serious when you said that? My God! These people will not be withdrawing then for 10 years! Do you not see how low earnings are? And telling people to get to 4000 adpacks before they get their seed money out is some of the WORSE advice you could EVER give to someone in a revshare. Tara, it has become really obvious you do not understand the revshare industry!!!!!'
'Dont Withdraw until n unless u reached 4000 ads ..its ROFL Tara mish..get a life'
'@ Tara, Ci hasn't proved to us that she will be faith with the Withdrawer @ 4000 ad pack, while we can't get paid @ 200 ad pack, I made a Withdrawer request almost a month now, and yet it hasn't dropped not even one among the Withdrawer, let CI prove her self first, we have played our part'.
'actually scam has been done since starting first they stopped withdrawal by saying that accounts are hacked then payment proccessor freezed advacash and payza is working for all other companies except click intensity, what kind of management and team u have every second day you guys are having problem saying them glitches comon guys they did it now it will b better to focus somewhere where we can earn bcoz out of 1400$ investment in starting I got 25$ back lol now 6 month to wait for advacsh and payza I'm not fool .'
'We know this is all a big scam, poor bastards in 3rd world countries paid a few bucks to post that they got paid to attract more poor suckers. There are those who have invested little with the hope of this being for real, like buying a lottery ticket. And then there are those who invested a lot, who refuse to accept that they've been conned.' ******************************************* So now you say you 've hired a private investigator? To investigate Nick? To investigate CI? That must be costing you a fortune. The FBI /SEC have free investigators Tara. You enticed American people into this scam on American soil, so you can bet your last dollar they'll want to hear ALL about what you've been up to. If you seriously want to make amends Tara, report them. .

Traffic Monsoon, PayPal Refunds and Charles Scoville.

(last updated 8th  August 2016 - scroll to bottom of page)

How to get your funds back from PayPal:

Step 1
Navigate to PayPal’s Resolution Center Web page and click the “Dispute a Transaction” button.
Step 2
Check the box next to the reason why you are requesting a refund, and then click “Continue.”
Step 3
Enter the transaction ID for the item or service you dispute, and then click “Continue.” If you don’t know the number, click the “Find Transaction ID” button.
Step 4
Review the transaction information and indicate the reason you are disputing the transaction. Click the “Continue” button to submit your request. After you submit your request, the seller receives the dispute information and can respond directly through the Resolution Center.

Step 5
Escalate the claim if you and the seller are unable to resolve the issue within 20 days of opening the dispute. If a case is not escalated within 20 days of opening a dispute, PayPal automatically closes the case. To escalate a claim, hover your mouse over the Resolution Center link on the PayPal toolbar and select the “View Open Cases” option.
Step 6
Click “View” next to the open dispute you want to escalate, and then click “Escalate this dispute to a PayPal claim.”
Step 7
Follow the on-screen instructions to provide PayPal with further evidence, and then click “Escalate to a claim” to submit your request and activate the claim. While PayPal tries to resolve a claim within 30 days, the process may exceed 30 days depending on the complexity of the case. PayPal will notify you after reaching a decision and may issue a refund based on the investigation.'

n.b YOUR REASON FOR A REFUND IS 'SERVICES NOT RECEIVED'.

'Compose your message to seller' is a message to Charles. Tempting through it might be to call him a lying scumbag, it won't get you very far!
I suggest something along the lines of:
'I have just found out that Traffic Monsoon is an illegal Ponzi scam and I would like my money back.'

Traffic Monsoon is not defending these refund requests so, by default, you should get your money back.

The funds are readily available for you to claim.
If you've had a claim refused, we suggest you try again and escalate the claim to Paypals fraud department.

Helpful Tips from other affiliates:

                ***********************
'How to get your funds back from PAYZA:

I had bought only one adpack thankfully and bought it trough PayZa right before this unraveled. I just got off a Chat with PayZa and they instructed me how to file a dispute, there is a 45 day window for disputes with Payza.
It is as follows:

Sanjay / Customer Support: If you are not satisfied with a good or service purchased, the option to file a dispute through the Resolution Center is available so long as the transaction is within 45 days. If the transaction is beyond this time frame the status for filing the dispute will read as “Expired” and the option to dispute this transaction will cease.

13:34Sanjay / Customer Support: To file a dispute simply follow these simple steps:
13:34Sanjay / Customer Support: 1. Log in to your Payza account
13:34Sanjay / Customer Support: 2. Click on the “Account" tab in the navigation menu to the left
13:34Sanjay / Customer Support: 3. Click on "Resolution Center"
13:34Sanjay / Customer Support: 4. Locate the transaction to dispute against and click on File dispute”
13:34Sanjay / Customer Support: 5. Fill in the required information and click on “Next step”
13:34Sanjay / Customer Support: 6. Confirm the information and click on “Next step”
13:34Sanjay / Customer Support: 7. Read and agree to Payza’s User Agreement and the seller’s terms of service (if applicable) and click on “Finish”
13:34Sanjay / Customer Support: Once the dispute has been filed please allow the seller up to 7 days to reply through the Resolution Center. Ideally the seller will reply to a message the buyer leaves within 7 days to resolve this issue or vice versa.
Please pass this on. '

Sanjay.

A Time-Line of recent events:

11th January 2016

PayPal froze Traffic Monsoons account. Initially, Charles denied this had happened, stating:
'(Traffic Monsoon will) ...setup an office in the World Trade Center Dubai. Part of this process is also setting up a bank here, and having an additional business registration here in the UAE. We're transitioning from using PayPal to opening our own TM World Bank. Our goal with opening our bank is to send you TM MasterCards for easier access to your earnings!'

Americans are not allowed to open Banks in the UAE due to the USA Tax laws. But even if he COULD get round those laws, he has to apply to the Dubai Financial Services Authority https://www.dfsa.ae/ - which takes a minimum of four months.
A useful guide explaining this procedure is here:

We're in transition to move these funds out of PayPal. I have a meeting today, and if all goes well then we'll have 13 million to cover all member account balances moved into the bank, ...'

The funds were NOT released into Payza, so you can assume the meeting did NOT go well.


22nd January:
Charles released this email from PayPal stating:
'The reason for Paypals decision to part ways with your organisation is due to the size of growth in a very short time frame, this creates too much risk for Paypal.'

This means that PAYPAL parted ways with Traffic Monsoon, NOT the other way round as Charles had stated. 


25th January:
From a video Charles and Immy released:

 '...they're (TM) also going to open a bank account with Emirates NBD which can supply Business Debit cards.'
So now they're saying that they plan to open a Bank ACCOUNT, in Dubai.

29th January:
Charles now wants you to use PAYZA to deposit money into:
'PayPal is now up to $58,553,217.77 -- Please get the word around to start using Payza for purchases...'

Paypal has withheld funds of around $60 Million.
Traffic Monsoon claims to have over Two million members. 
That works out at around $30 per member.

4th February:
From Sharon James Facebook page:
' UPDATE!!!
News just in Via Sharon James
Well folks as promised an UPDATE from Immy Aslam I have just spoke to him in Dubai and yes wait for it the Dubai Bank is OPEN yes that is trading from next week we will have our own system to take payments and the System will box off all the awaiting in process payments so guys and girls be patients payment on debit and master cards still in testing as we want no glitches.
I would like to congratulate Charles and Immy on their HUGE MISSION.'

5th February:

'We're about to enter the next phase as we've moved away from PayPal.
Next week we expect to have our own credit card processing system built into the website so our members can begin making purchases for our services directly.
The TM World Bank is still in progress. In the meantime we'll be processing withdrawal requests through payza...'
Charles now says he is opening his own PAYMENT PROCESSOR that you can purchase i.e DEPOSIT money INTO, but you must still WITHDRAW using PAYZA.


7th February:
Charles released a You Tube video stating that he is now in partnership with the MSBC group which offers 'banking solutions'.
http://www.msbcgroup.com/

This video has now been removed.


8th February:
Sharon James posted a You Tube video stating that she had spoken to Charles and there were now problems with PAYZA and everybody should open an account with STP instead.


9th February:
Charles quote:
'...We're in a position where most of the funds that belong to members are inside paypal and paypal is not allowing funds to go out. We've retained one of the top attorneys in the USA to help with this matter. Their only reasoning for holding onto funds is because we grew too fast in a short amount of time...'

We have yet to know who this attorney is?

11th February:
Charles quote:
'...Worse case scenario, PayPal will release the funds in a max of 180 days

(six months) and everyone's pending withdrawals will be paid...'

14th February 2016:
Todays post from Charles:
'In time the bank will be ready. In time we'll get the funds out of paypal. In time all things will come about. It's not always our time, or within our frame of patience. This is a test from the almighty. Who we are at our core will be proven to our creator through this test.
PayPal was everyone's favorite way to pay, so what we're seeing is a drop in revenues because people preferred PayPal for making purchases ... I feel confident that when we get the funds out of PayPal to pay people... and an easy way to make purchases, things will become back to normal. That's why our #1 focus right now is getting the bank finished, build our payment gateway, and get the legal help to release the funds from PayPal.'

Which means the Bank won't be opening any time soon, despite the earlier announcements. 

20th February 2016
From Charles webinar today:
'...the World Wide TM Bank is ON HOLD for a little bit especially as we need to release those funds out of PayPal. At what stage we might pick those plans up in the future, I don't know. Or if we might take a different direction altogether, I don't know. There's definitely alot there that needs to be sorted out...

...or will it just benefit the members most to just open up a bank account somewhere and handle some types of merchant services. And it probably wouldn't be in Dubai, we'd have the Bank account in the US...'

So there is NO TM Worldwide Bank.
NO payment processor.
NO Bank account...and your accounts are still pending!


Chargeback Clarification:

The general rules of Chargeback only apply if you've paid for a service DIRECTLY through your Bank Debit or Credit Card.
If you go through a Payment Processor like PayPal, their own specific Refund (Chargeback) policy applies. This has a strict time limit so you need to request a refund ASAP.
Your first contact for a refund should be the Payment Processor you used.
If the processor refuses, you should THEN contact your Bank and/or credit company. They MAY help you, but are not obliged to.

When Traffic Monsoon closes down, your case for a Bank Chargeback is stronger.

I recommend you contact:
ActionFraudUK :
http://www.actionfraud.police.uk/

The FBI:
http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx


and the Police and Authorities in your Country immediately to report Charles and Traffic Monsoon as a PONZI scam.

If the Authorities close Traffic Monsoon, they will likely seize Charles money so it can be returned to the affiliates affected.

Specific PayPal Refund/Chargeback Information: 

Why are some people getting Refunds/Chargebacks and others are being refused?

Because Charles is the 'seller' and YOU are the 'buyer'.
You have supposedly brought a 'service' from Charles, advertising. You can't, therefore, argue that you haven't received the service you paid for, if Charles has already given you money back when you requested withdrawals.

You would have a Chargeback case only if you HADN'T been paid -ever. A Chargeback from a Credit Card company or debit card via a third party processor is rare. Some banks and Credit Cards ( Barclaycard is very good) will certainly help you. Most, unfortunately, will not. So try PAYPAL first for a refund of your deposited funds, and if that fails, then you can certainly try your Bank/ Credit card. (You have 540 days to do this). 

Some information regarding third party processors:
'In some cases we see, the consumer has bought online, using a credit card on a website that uses a secure third-party payment system to process credit card payments.

Section 75 may not always apply to transactions made this way, because this payment mechanism can break the chain of arrangements that must be in place between the consumer, the lender and the supplier.

But there are many different types of payment mechanisms used on suppliers' websites and not all of them prevent section 75 from applying. Where there is a dispute on this point, we look at the specific payment mechanism used and decide whether section 75 applies in the particular case.'

General Chargeback Information is here:

Many people have contacted us saying that they won't request a refund or Chargeback from Charles because they're afraid their account will be closed. The truth is, your account is now worthless. The lies Charles have told are documented above. And he has previous failed PONZI's that have all gone the same way.

Accounts were frozen, companies were closed and affiliates lost thousands of dollars.
Charles is now stalling for time because he knows that PayPal have a time limit on refunds.
If you want your money back - you MUST contact PAYPAL immediately.

TODAY. NOW. 

29th April
To all those people who are waiting for the 180 days when PayPal will magically release their money - forget it!
It WON'T happen. 

Hi Tara,
Thank you so much for your advice . The bank told me to write to PayPal first which I did . I got my money back from PayPal. TM doesn't respond to letters from PayPal .
I adviced six of my friends to do the same and they too have received their monies EXCEPT for the ones which has exceeded the 120 day duration. I feel sorry for the people who are being told to wait for 180 days. They are in for a rude shock.
.keep up the good work.
NB: how does this guy get away with blatant thieving is a question I am left with.

26th June 2016
News of refunds are still trickling through, we had another one today, so please don't delay. It isn't too late.
More successful refunds on here:

7th July 2016


PAYPAL CHARGEBACK INFORMATION - GREAT NEWS!
Have you been refused a Chargeback from PayPal?
If so, check your PayPal account today. It seems that PayPal have started refunding previously refused Chargebacks:

'Hi Tara,
When PayPal first pulled the plug on TM, I applied for a refund and it was challenged, and ultimately not paid back to me. I just had an email about a cancelled payment from TM, logged in to my PayPal account and the full amount was in there and I have successfully transferred it to my bank account. Looks like PayPal are honouring all previously refused charge backs.'

'A couple of months ago, I disputed a payment to TM, thru Paypal. This was denied.
Today (the 7th of July), I got a pleasant surprise.
Paypal send me a mail that the payment was cancelled and it was indeed back on my Paypal-account. Almost $1500 back. Great! '

'PayPal had originally refused my claim too, although I had partial success claiming via my bank. I filed a complaint with the ombudsman, and then yesterday evening I received multiple refund payments from PayPal. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the ombudsmans involvement as I am yet to hear from them.'

'Check Paypal! I originally filed for a refund with paypal a few months ago and was rejected. Ive been going through the process with my bank when today this! According to other groups, alot of people got money refunded!'

Please let me know if you too, find some money in your account!

8th August 2016
Traffic Monsoon has been closed down and won't re-open.
The receivers have taken over the website and Charles
has no access to any funds.
You will no longer be able to withdraw money from your account.
This is a brief summary of the procedure to try and get your money back:
You need to first contact your payment processor (Paypal/Payza/STP etc) for a refund. If they refuse, try for a Chargeback from your Bank or Credit Card company. (Information on link attached). In summary, you are claiming for 'services not received' under the 540 day Chargeback rule. You need to contact the Banks Fraud department - NOT RETAIL DISPUTES -

All the information you need to help you is on this page:

http://taratalkstoday.blogspot.co.uk/p/get-your-money.html


Not all Chargebacks are successful so if your Chargeback application fails, the Receivers may eventually refund a percentage of any ORIGINAL SEED MONEY money you paid Traffic Monsoon but this may take months/years I'm afraid.
Details of the receivers and how to claim will follow at  a later date.
