Don’t
invest in any online schemes unless you are absolutely sure of the credentials
of the service. We have come across this advice many times but never learn from
our mistakes. The victims of Wholesalescout
scam operations also made the mistake of going by the external appearance
of their website. They never knew the murky details of what the website really
stands for.
The first thing that a subscriber discovers when they try to browse through the various features is that the so-called verified wholesale list is just a copy and paste job. They have cunningly lifted names from here and there and passed it off as their own exposing you to dangerous crooks and scammers. It means that they charge you for accessing information that you could have easily procured from the internet without paying a penny.

Don’t Succumb to That Crafty Offer
Wholesale scout scams start with retailers succumbing to their one pound trial
offer. The scheme is a clever trick to lure you into subscribing to their
wholesale plan for seven days. What they don’t tell you is that if you do not
cancel your subscription by email within the trial period, they will renew your
subscription for the full value of £26.99.
Subscribers
never get a chance to cancel their subscription because they never acknowledge
your mail. They pretend not to have received any cancellation requests and
blatantly charge your account without even bothering to inform you or take your
consent.
There
is no doubt in anyone’s mind that the one pound plan is just a ruse to get hold
of your account details. Once they have it, you are doomed. They debit your
account at every conceivable opportunity using different names so you don’t
even know where your money is disappearing month after month.
It
is clear from online reviews that
Wholesalescout is an outdated site. They claim to update information
about products and wholesalers frequently. That’s another big lie. How can
stolen data be updated? By stealing more names from other wholesale directory
sites? Apparently that’s what they are doing.
The
prices of products are intentionally displayed wrongly to make them appear the
cheapest. It is only when you order the stocks that they inform you about VAT
and other mandatory duties. These additions raise the prices so high that you
will be left with no scope to make any profits. You can avoid scams such as Wholesale scout if your read the trade review
