Shocking scam and spam from fandango.com
Sun Dec 20 2009
Be warned: when you order movie ticket via fandango.com
they show the enticing offer like $10 off your next ticket or maybe
something even better, but
if you read the fine print - it says you will be charged $12/month if
you accept this offer.
Also, fandango.com will spam you constantly like there is no tomorrow.
When I ordered my ticket I specifically
unchecked all the boxes that said 'receive emails from us'
I know for a fact that I was very careful not to join any of their
mailing lists, but 2 days later I received some crap spam
from fandango.
So I thought, find, I will just unsubscribe. So I clicked on the
'unsubscribe', followed that link, unsubscribed.
24 hours later, you guessed it - another bullcrap spam from fandango,
may they burn in hell
My conclusion: fandango definitely uses spam to generate revenue and
they also use the marketing tacktics that
can be compared to Nigerian online scams - where they tell you you got
some money coming to you, but if you
fall for it, you are sure will lose lots of money.
My advice: avoid fandango, buy tickets yourself. Fandango is a
21century plaique, much more dangerous to human kind than a swine
flue.
Fandango contributes to global warning? Fandango kills dogs for food?
Fandango destroyers rain forest?
Fandango commits mass genocide in Africa? There are just a few
questions on the minds of people and we all deserve answers.
