Celica Forums Private Party Classifieds Buyer and Seller Reviews Ripped off by CarSponsorships...

Aight i fell for that damn scam. They took my money and now im left with a shitty catalog of cheap audio equipment and a bunch of vouchers for free car sized vinyl. I emailed them and told them i wanna back off, that i wasn't interested and that i wanted to terminate whatever contract that was involed.

I have one year untill the CarSponsorship.com contract dies and i make no progress in buying their rice shit.

I need help people, and i don't ask for help often or at all, it is much appreciated.

The question is: What should I do now? Let the contract wear off in a year or find some other terms to cut strings with CarSponsorships.com.

what are the details of the contract that you signed?

how much did you pay?

and


what did the contract say you need to do for them?

What are the agreements in your contract?

what did they send you in the mail?

I dunno if there is much you can do bryan honestly i think its a lessoned learned and just move on...

just tell them you totalled your car in an accident and can't proceed with the sponsorship

it all depends on the details of the contract scan it and post it, maybe we can find a loophole

sorry bro but if I remember correctly many ppl tried to talk you out of doing this Takes a man to admit to everyone that he did get screwed in the end ... I hope you get out of this and come out on top bro

u get 50% percent off that cheap audio equipment...so find somebody in your town that likes ricey shit and sell it to them and make some $$$$$

yup, need more details.

Argh, Im pretty sure it was probably more like a user agreement. I had a packet sent to me with a bunch of "Articles" as or their terms. I haven't signed anything yet.

Im not trying to fight'em, i just want them to disappear within time.

check this:

LIMIT OF LIABILITY. Our liability is limited to the total amount of the fees that you pay us for our services. You agree to hold us harmless regarding any claim of any nature arising from your sponsorships or quasi-sponsorships including any car accidents, traffic tickets, injuries while operating your car, loss or damage to your vehicle, loss of employment, and injury to yourself or any other person and any claims of product liability.

NO REFUNDS ARE GIVEN FOR ANY REASON. You may terminate your membership at any time. We may terminate your membership at any time and for any reason.

So I emailed them already saying i want out, Their terms of use say i can withdraw at anytime. Am I in the clear?

You should be. Also cut and paste that quote in the mail to let them know that you read the agreements and that you are able to back off at ANY given time.

isnt this that thing from www. carsponsorships.com that we all laughed at?

so if you stay in the contract thing do you have to buy their stuff...??? because if you don't hafto then you might as well stay with it and buy their crappy stuff and sell it... like somone else said
plus if you back off now you arent getting any money back..

I think if you stay, you have to enter a few shows and rep your sponsors, don't you?

well, someone's gotta take one for the team.

at least your misfortune will let all the rest of us know that carsponsorship.com crap is a definite scam and we should avoid it at all costs.

now all we gotta do is get some people to try the tornado, the electric supercharger, and the dei cryo system.

How exactly did you get ripped off? Do you not get any percentage off of the products because if you do, what else did you expect out of this? Did you expect free stuff or what am I missing?

were you trying to get sponsored?

yea ha

i belive it says if you back out you must pay a prorated amount of the funds you were sponsored for

it happened to me to

i had a contact number on the form and i punched it in on google and the yellow pages listed it as some guys house in florida. pisses me off

Bryan(polykarb) Jeff(smuttastic gt) we live in florida, bryan get your mercanarie gloves ill get my ranger we can plow through his house and steal his woman and money!

Take them to small claims court.

If you can prove that they mislead you and decieved you in order to get money from you, you will get it back.

Also, if they used the US Post Office to send you things (Catalogs, etc) and that was used in the deceptive act, they are guilty of the following:

MAIL FRAUD - 18 U.S.C. 1341, makes it a Federal crime or offense for anyone to use the United States mails in carrying out a scheme to defraud.

A person can be found guilty of that offense only if all of the following facts are proved: First: That the person knowingly and willfully devised a scheme to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false pretenses, representations or promises; and Second: That the person used the United States Postal Service by mailing, or by causing to be mailed, some matter or thing for the purpose of executing the scheme to defraud.

if you have a lawyer friend, just get him to call..that usually does the trick with most businesses..especially small businesses

sound like a pretty smart ass guy running this scheem lol find his adress and trash his house!!!!! stel his stuff. and reposes your money.

Postal Inspectors are akin to US Marshalls, if you can get them on your side, somebody's going down!

All I can say is Thank God for this site!!!

About a month ago while crusin' thru Modified Mag, I came across CarSponsorships.com full page ad, and it really turned me on:
- We Get you Sponsored by companies that you know!
- 6 out of 10 applicants that apply get fully sponsored by one or more of our companies.
- Get up to $25000 to spend for your ride! Guaranteed at least $500.

Some of the companies that they included (which made it even more tempting) are:
- Dunlop (for tires)
- RaveAnn (for rims)
- B&B Suspension (suspension)
- Megan Racing (gauges)
- Decalkits.com (graphics/vinyls)
- StreetFX (for lighting)
- House of Boom (for audio **snicker snicker**)
- Evolution Auto Design (for the dash)
- XM Satellite Radio.

...and so on (actually, only a couple more).

Basically, they made it sound REALLY tempting, and I was almost ready to sign up until they wanted my credit card information right away... then I hesistated, and I'm glad I came here 'cause now I know that this is a crock of sh*t, that's evident not only by this thread, but a couple others from the same site that got totally burned.

i think they were at hot import nites last nite

i wish i saw this thread before i went to HIN.

i bet it was house of boom... and some vynil shit companies

yea i got suckered in too
