Post nevergoesdown- yet another scam

I copied this from some where else,, just thought I would share this info!!!




The products listed on this site come with a promise of a magical "black box" that will work with any provider by means of an internal descrambler. They come with claims of working with everything.

"Satellite tv that never goes down". Sound too good to be true? What do you think?

A good friend bought a "Black box PVR" for the sum of $399 cdn. What he got in the mail was a CW600, not even with a remote.

I don't think I need to get into detail about trying to get a hold of this crook, or the fact that he claims to have been in business for 23 years in BC. The truth of the matter is that he runs this scam out of a basement suite in Surrey. The business phone is also a cell phone- big surprise.

Here are some of the promises from this clown. Good for a laugh but remember, it's all BS.






Are you seeking a (WIDE OPEN) satellite receiver with, NO MONTHLY FEES?
You have come to the right place! (Open Mon-Sat 11am-6pm, except US/CA holidays)

We have receivers with hardware descramblers built in .(NO CARDS) (Nagravision 1, 2, 3 as well as NDS, compatible)

Our receivers say "...for FREE & ENCRYPTED Digital Video..." written in the manual. Others do not (fta).

ALL the receivers we sell are guaranteedto get you high quality Digital TV pictures for a minimum of 12 months, with telephone and electronic tech support, after 12 months they will still work. The electronics are guaranteed for 5 years. (YES WE SAID FIVE YEARS)

No one else offers this level of support, of course no one has the experience of 23+ years that we do. 23 + years in British Columbia, Canada.

All our receivers are upgradeable, our HDTV+ units are hardware and software upgradeable so you never need to buy another receiver again, ever!
WE ARE OPEN MONDAY TO SATURDAY,
11AM-6PM EXCEPT PUBLIC HOLIDAYS
DUE TO VERY HIGH CALL VOLUMES IF YOU DO NOT GET THROUGH
PLEASE TRY BACK OR LEAVE A MESSAGE



NEVER GOES DOWN!!

EUROPEAN and AMERICAN made/designed satellite receivers BETTER than FTA with 5 year Equipment & 12 MONTH TV PICTURE GUARANTEE, TIRED OF YOUR FTA ALWAYS GOING DOWN? Why buy low priced FTA garbage that ALWAYS goes DOWN, when you want to watch something good? FTA (FREE TO AIR) manufacturers are all being taken to court and are desperately trying to UNLOAD their inventory of cheap garbage products. BEWARE of fta products that require a 24/7 INTERNET connection, once on the Internet YOUR IP address can and will be traced back to your home, we asked EVERY INTERNET provider. Don't be fooled by fta sellers unloading their inventory before they get stuck with it. FTA NEVER WORKS WHEN YOU WANT IT TO, soon it won't work AT ALL. OUR EQUIPMENT has TRUE HARDWARE DE SCRAMBLERS, NEVER GOES DOWN,SOFTWARE & HARDWARE UPGRADEABLE, never obsolete, POWERFUL enough to work on it's OWN. ON SCREEN MESSAGES FOR EASY USE and GUIDES you with latest INFO of whats going on. NO COMPUTER OR INTERNET CONNECTION NEEDED . Our Boxes have EVERY feature you want & MORE! NO MONTHLY FEES!

however it expands on those features by adding

TIVO & Sling Box which is the ability to watch your programs from anywhere in the world. This feature also lets you set new record timers when you are away from home. Imagine watching a local sports team while you are somewhere on the other side of the world, well now you can!

The other feature that is included is TIVO-PVR-DVR this is the feature that allows you to record any program that is played on satellite, either when you are home or while you are at work. a Digital VCR that is much easier to use, you simple select the program in your On screen TV guide and hit the key to tell it to record,

it can even record shows that come on more than once for example lets say you watch a show at 2 pm Monday to Friday, you can tell it to record every episode of that show from now on, without you having to remember.

Further to that you can Export recordings to your computer and make a DVD disk to share with friends and family if you like.


CONNECTIONS:

Wow and somebody actually believed this??? Open from 11am-6pm strangest hours of operation for a store. Closed on both USA and Canada holidays, that would be the only store in Canada i've ever heard of that is closed because of a holiday in another country. Their receivers work on Nagra 1, there is nothing on Nagra 1. Hardware descramblers lol wtf is that? There is so much bullshit written here and some ppl fall for this ? I would like to see a picture of these units that never go down.
