On September 9 I paid for a 'free CD' from Paul as well as a 14 day free trial of what he calls by several names, including Effortless Manifesting Club, Effortless Manifesting Course, and Manifesting Success Club. I never received either the CD. Nor did I receive the download links for the 'free 14 day trial' until 42 days had passed and I had written an email canceling my membership and asking for a full refund and a total of $61.95 had been removed from my bank account... and according to one email from them, the membership had been canceled.

After a brief series of email exchanges where I was told "The CD's in the mail", "The Post Office is responsible for losing it", and "No refund is due", my subsequent 3 emails were never replied to... complete silence!

Not one to be silent, here's what I've done... so far!

1. I have posted the complete details of exactly how I was ripped off by Paul Bauer at http://paulbauerdreamsalivescam.blogspot.com/... including links to others who have similarly been scammed. I invite anyone who has had similar experiences to stop by and take a look at the exchange of emails between me and Paul, arrive at their own conclusions, and make any comments.

2. Contacted the fraud department of my bank and filed a complaint. They told me that the subscription HADN'T been canceled but they were taking care of it at their end. They are also crediting my account with $54 pending an investigation. It would have been for the full amount if I had been 3 days sooner... my error! I urge anyone who has been scammed by Paul within the last 60 days to contact their bank or credit card company and take similar action. If enough people speak up, maybe he'll lose his merchant account.

3. Posting to as many "I've been scammed" and ripoff and fraud websites as I can find to warn others who are THINKING of buying one of Paul's courses or products of the experience of myself and others... as well as to join in solidarity behind those who have already been ripped off without receiving what they paid for.
