Prosper, Inc./Prosper University





Elsa of Fresno, CA October 31, 2009

I went and checked my records, yes they are the reason I been overdrafting since July. June 8th I got Twitter Prosper Tree casettes for 3.88, that is all I paid, they said it was to send it to you. I got the Cds an some reading about Prosper University, They have charged me july 1 and July 31, Agoust 31 and October 1and 30 49.87 5 times, overdrawing my account when I buy small things 8.oo 15.oo etc. I have been overdrawen like three times for 4 transactions, is 35.00 each. I only keep what I buy on this account

Visa, Bank of America I use on net because i Had a virus come in computer. I stopped after one day so I am carefull to not put money on it I told bank to not give me overdraft protection for same reason but they did and I lost money from my savings everytime, plus the stress it causes me not knowing why. i could not get on line to check records because the lady that openen my account said she signed me on line, everytime I went in I had no pass word until I decided to sign in like I had no online banking, but used the banking id lady gave me I finally got in,

This Prosper University has costed me alot of money and they said to take opportunity to enroll because you would just have this service. I never asked for 14 days, I only got the Cds and this was only advertized as postage, I did not go back to sign in into this so called prosper University. I am disabled and go to school and can not even afford Cable, there is NO WAY I would Ever agree to have bgiven them consent to do this, also they have have me so stress and paranoid about everything and everyone because I feel totally out of control with my money.

I did not know if the bank was doing this or whom I was paranoid about the internet and I need tio go in cause I study Graphicsm they have costed me many nights of imsomnia and unecessary worry, I am very upset about the way these people scam you and I just read another report in this site about some one else that talked about Twitter and that is how I remembered where I saw the name Prosper University,

this people are probably scaming hundred of naive people like me, promesing you can make money on Twitter and they basically just tell you alll you already know, it should be illegal, besides charging you twice in the same month, I am on a limited income. I WANT A LAWYER! Please help. when are this people going to stop abusing low income people?. Thank you!

I did not know. I have a charge that overdrew mw, that I know of, for 49.87 from Prosper University pending now, bank wont stop pay ,I can refute till it posts I did not do this transaction with them, they are robbing me. I just read one of your comments. I remember like 4 months ago I also went in Twitter and paid 3.88 for the how to make Twitter pay you money, it said basically join Twitter to make money, which I already know. I never asked them for anything else or even heard the cds, they charged me this money today without any authorization. I have to go check if they did it before. I have paid 500.00 in overdrafts without knowing why.

They advertised a 3.88 introductory offer, but didn't mention the 67.18 monthly charge that was part of your enrollment. The web site is now down, convenianty, so there is no refuting that it was not stated when I purchased the initial program. By the time I got the bill, and noticed the monthly charge, the next months charge was deducted already. I am out 2x 67.18 us funds, which I may have a chance at having refunded after disputing the charges thru the credit card company.

Deborah of Pittsburgh, PA July 24, 2009

I looked into the Tweeter program that was advertised on TV and on the internet but was not interested. When I told them this everything seemed to be fine till I got my Bank Statement and discovered that they had taken 67.18 plus a 30.00 overdraft fee from my account. This company and it's affiliates are all RIP OFF's. BEWARE! I live on a fixed income and 97.18 can go a really long way for me. We don't need people like that getting rich of us.

Tammy of Everett, PA July 20, 2009

I was reading about a work at home ad. An ad about making money by twitting to indiviuals on Twitter was on the page, I went to that web site and signed up to what they called Propser University, it cost 3.88 and you had 14 days to cancel. I received the CD's they sent in 3 days, listened to them the same day, you could tell it was a scam so I call right then to cancel. I looked at my credit card, they charged me 49.95. It was 7 days from the time I ordered till they charged the 49.95. I called them back and told them I had already cancelled, but stupid me, I did'nt wright down the comformation number so they are refunding only half my money, I even told they it said 14 days to cancel and they said no it's 7 days. you can tell this is set up this way, they are most likely ripping off thousands of people. I'm so sad, the world is such a terrible place anymore. Please worn others of this, Please!
