Automated Home Profits (www.AutomatedHomeProfits.com) is the latest version of a notorious home business opportunity. The sad fact is that this program incites so much negative customer feedback that the owners have to continually change the name and look of the website.
However, for those who’ve seen it before it’s fairly easy to recognize as they keep the same basic template. Automated Home Profits used to be called the Quick Cash Kit and is also using some elements of the Home Income Cash System sales page.
Take a look at the screenshot of the Quick Cash Kit, which is a rearranged version of the Automated Home Profits website.
The reason for all the customer complaints, hundreds on this site alone, is due to several factors. This program is sold using various deceptive tactics, the most notable of which is the infamous fake news article. They advertise a story about a young single mom who is supposedly using the Automated Home Profits kit to make a great living online.
These fake news articles make use of an IP reading script which tailors the “newspaper” to fit your home town, a shady trust building tactic which sometimes backfires on them when people from small towns realize that no such newspaper exists where they’re from.
In the past programs like Automated Home Profits were sold using a sneaky continuation billing scheme in which your small S&H payment automatically enrolled you in a high cost monthly subscription plan. But in this case they’re selling the program for a onetime payment of $9.97.
Now you should be asking yourself, why would someone who had a system for earning up to $375 a day, as they claim, sell it for only 10 bucks. The answer is simple: not only is that a completely made up earnings figure but they sell their program cheaply in order to get you in the door, after which they tell you that to really succeed you need additional hosting, software, coaching, and so on until you’ve spent hundreds of dollars.
Is Automated Home Profits a Scam?
I would not recommend that anyone buy this program, for the simple reason that they have to keep changing names and websites. If no one complained about this course then it would still be sold under its original name, with a list of real testimonials and not complaints.
The worst part about this company is with the brazen manner that they manipulate their customers. They barely make an effort to hide the fact that this is just a recycled course; they didn’t even bother removing the old program’s name from their disclaimer. They leave a trail a mile long and don’t seem to care.
The good news is that Automated Home Profits is being sold through ClickBank, a 3rd party payment processor which has a no questions asked 60 day money back guarantee. So if you have purchased the kit you can easily get your money back.
I'd like to point out that if Google really is one of the leading companies for this scam...then why does google allow you to keep this page at the top of the list, warning people against it? I don't know many other companies that would allow that..
This company really needs to be ashamed of itself for targeting people who really do need/want the work but are stuck at home and desperate...
Someone needs to make a company that pays people to expose frauds..that's how we would make our money..
i payed the £10 pounds went to the site it looked ok till you started to go through the site...it was like to other site were you had to pay more money to make it all work...... so thank jay hope to get my refund soon...
I also signed up with Automated home profits and within 10 minutes i felt as though i had been duped. When trying to create my website i was re-directed to the 'upgrade' every time - i clicked on every website offered and was re-directed every time! As a single mum, working from home for a few extra quid seemed ideal, especially coming up to Christmas, i had to wait until i received my child benefit to sign up for this so, as you can imagine, i can't afford to lose even the initial sign up of£9.97 plus vat.
I followed Jay's instructions and have since received an email from clickbank stating that it will take 2 business days to process --thanks again Jay, i would've got lost without your invaluable help.
However, Sandy's comment advises that the ongoing payments avoid Clickbank, and are therefore difficult to get your refund, Thanks for the warning Sandy, hope you got your money back.
