So being in the GPT industry for so long, I have seen many people get scammed, but I have never personally ever been a victim of being scammed. It was unfortunate to see them get scammed, but I was never really able to see what it felt like - until a few weeks ago.
As some of you may know, I was a somewhat strong promoter of RaidTheBank (site doesn’t even deserve a link anymore). I had over 2,000 referrals and was close friends with the owner, Deidre Bowie. We talked a lot, and even opened up some other sites together.
Anyways, I began to see her on less and less, and she explained that her and her husband, Scott, were going to get married. I still provided support to the RaidTheBank forums, and also managed the “spam control” on there. Now a few months a later, and there is still no reply from her. The RaidTheBank site is suspended since she has stopped paying Shiftcode the monthly fee, and she is pocketing all the money she owes her members.
I cashed out at the end of February with around $480, but I never received it. This is not just some temporary mistake either. I’ve emailed her on numerous occasions, started IM conversations to which she never replied, and even left her comments on Mypsace, which I knew she read by viewing her “Last Logged In” date.
I’m not exactly mad that I just got scammed for $480, because I have other sources of income, but I am not exactly happy that I could’ve easily just had $480. After all, who wouldn’t want $480? Who I do feel bad for is all the other members of the site that Deidre owes. Not all of them have other sources of income, and they deserve to be paid for their work.
Deidre, if you’re reading this, which you probably are, I am very surprised with your actions. Coming from someone who worked for InstantProfitz, it just doesn’t seem right. The fact that you would run away with not only my money, but all of the other members that are furious with you on the forums is just amazing.

Sucks bro. I never was a member of raidthebank so don’t know anything about them. Probably on her honeymoon sippin on a cocktail in the bahamas with all the money
Perhaps you can give her a ring. I live in Louisiana not far from Bedford Texas. Want me to leave a flaming poop bag on her doorstep?
@ CashJuke:
Yeah, I bet she is. I’m sure she moved by now. I see on her Myspace comments that they’ve been looking for a new house. I would hate for the wrong person to get a flaming pile of… ;).
That sucks…
Have you tried calling her? What about a law suit? She is asking for a service, people do the service and then they don’t get paid.
Besides, you have to file a tax claim each year to the IRS to tell them where you got the money you have and where the money you have is going to.
So she better respond or else the IRS guys will make her respond.
I’m guessing she got sick? If not then she just ran away with everyone’s money, if so then go to other websites of people who advertise her site and tell them about it. Most probably it will make people Loose interest in her site and sooner or later the site will die.
I heard of this website before but I never really bothered joining as it didn’t really look interesting at all.. same ugly shiftcode layout, a cheap shiftcode site… well the usual. I’m glad I didn’t join.
I still think Squishycash and Bankrollbucks are the best GPT sites so far. The admins are great and they always respond to you. The owner of Bankrollbucks even let me cashout an extra day just because I forgot to do it the day it was due.
I’m serious, if you want to join a site let it be Bankrollbucks or Squishycash, they are definitely the best.
Ouch. That is really bad. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten scammed out of that much money, although it has been a close call a few times. You gotta be careful who you promote these days, as anyone can just walk away with all your money if you aren’t on top of your game.
Do you know of any other sites that she is involved in? Any site that she is anyway associated with, I will stay away from. Did you make over $600 this year on the site. Would be interested to see if you are sent a 1099-Misc.
@ Kevin:
She was once associated with InstantProfitz. I’m not sure if is she still is or not. She was also the owner of My123Free, but I pretty sure she sold that. Those are the only sites I believe she owns.
Yeah, she got my money too.
I had quite a few referrals as well and was heading there one day to cashout and suddenly saw the suspended thing.
Ya, Getting scammed does in fact suck.
i got ripped off over $600 from her site, she is a total bitch. she ripped me off on the raidthebank site and her my123free site, i hate her and have tried to contact her, but it doesnt work.
You don’t know shit about this individual. She has been cheating on her husband (Scott Mckinnon) with a man named Michael Pettigrew. He’s a hillbilly from east Texas who once shoved a hairbrush up his arse. According to sources, she contracted a bad case of Herpes from him. She’s a liar, cheat, and just an overall disgrace to humanity. Be aware, I am sure she will try to create another scam. She works as a receptionist for her mother’s counseling service, so not being able to secure real employment, she scams what she can.
