  • Facebook Need To Be Held Accountable! If you See Kevin Talbot or RC Sparks being used for a Facebook Advert, do not Buy Anything From it! You Will be Scammed! You will not get a Primal MT Raminator, or a Traxxas XMAXX for $99!
    If I saved you a few 'bucks'....feel free buy me a Coffee:

    It's easy to think 'well, nobody is that stupid'... but in reality, people still get scammed in to thinking they are getting a $300... $600..$3000 RC Car for $50!

    Shows your honour, that you chose to make this video, given that you have such a varied audience, from youngsters that may be asking parents to buy things for birthday or christmas, to partners who are looking to get a surprise gift for their loved one. You don't want anyone to loose out.
    Aaron has done videos about scammers using his image on stuff, Kevin i believe has also.
    The fact the scammers are upping their game to going straight for credit/debit cards is indicative.

    I intentionally bought something like this a few years ago, for $60... It was through Paypal so as soon as I got the stupid toy, I got around to report to Paypal and since the seller did not even respond to their inquiry, I got the money back (even better, since the exchange from $ made it so that I got back more money actually). At least I got a toy to play around with (it's still fun to bash around) for free.

    My advice is to report every single ad you see on FB as a Scam or Misleading.
    99% of them are scams and if we all bulk report these ads eventually it will
    force facebook to do something to vet these ads because if we report them all
    in bulk they will be taken down. Unless it's from a brand name I know, they all
    get reported.

    I ordered an RC Car on Banggood once. It took 3 months to finally arrive. In the mean while I actually tried to cancel the order, however it was a big hassle with their guidelines, because it wasn’t clear how long you’d have to return it or if you could even cancel the order. I ended up writing an E-Mail, wich startet a pretty long chain of E-Mails, because it was never really clear what they meant. This just got boring, and in the meanwhile the RC Car came in the mail. I bought another one, wich is miles better anyways even though you can get it for the same price. So the Banggood car just kinda sits In my garage until a few of my friends come over and want to have a go too.
