How the adult industry can turn off paying members

[FTVGirls_Rob]

Some of you might have been hit with 'crossell' scams before, but those of you who haven't always watch out for this sort of thing:

You also get Free Access to the following sites:
xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxxx

* Free 3 Day Trial Recurs
Automatically at $34.76 unless Canceled
** Free 2 Day Trial Recurs
Automatically at $39.99 unless Canceled

Free Bonus Offer: xxxxxxxxx 2 Day, $1 Trial Includes
Unlimited Access to Thousands of Sites!
Free Bonus Offer: Access DVDs Now ** Free 2 Day Trial Includes
Unlimited Access to Thousands of DVD Titles!

* $1.00 3 Day Trial Recurs
Automatically at $34.76 unless Canceled
** Free 2 Day Trial Recurs
Automatically at $39.99 unless Canceled

So you think you have a deal on a cheap trial, but since you tend to forget to cancel exactly the same day, you end up getting charged over $100 or more. With the industry burning out and getting desperate, watch out for this sort of thing.
The sad part is that it turns off paying members, then they fear that they will get scammed on other legit sites as well. What bothers me is that many sites that didn't do this before are doing it now.
And those bonus sites you think you're getting a deal out of are just garbage compilations of generic content. :mad:

So my free trial of FTVXXX.com is not legit, you say?

Thank you Rob, that's really good and helpful advice. I've nearly been caught by these trial offers, but luckly i didn't go for them.;)

Yes thanks for the warning Rob and you are absolutely correct this kind of scam ends up hurting the honest sites in the end.

I hate when a site want to charge you $25 or more and won't let you download the content, like Vivid, Wicked and Digital Playground.

Thanks for the warning. I'ver wondered about those sites, but have always stayed away.

joined this tube site MoviesAnd-HD.com just to see what the members area looks like to base another project of mine... they tried to charge me $100 for two other memberships, i also could not cancel, i had to call an 866 number to do so, major fraud bucks company, its one of the precheck guys =/

This is a perfect example of why I check out reviews for all sites I'm thinking about joining. I frequently visit one that is user submitted reviews and forums. Great way to ask or see if anyone else has had any problems with a site before joining it.

There is only 1 place I go to check reviews: TheBestPorn. And to date the only premium sites I have joined were Rob's, based in part of TBP, part on my own digging to see if he was trustworthy, how he treats the models, &c. I'm very finicky with my money and if I'm going to spend on a luxury it had better be worth it. FTV was, and I am absolutely positive that DanielleFTV is as well. I can also be biased ;)

Should also check out PornUsers, which is the user reviewed verision of TBP. Very useful site.
