Dow Superstore Inc. aka www.dowsuperstore.com: Scam Artists, Frauds, and Thieves.

I Have worked for TopTenWholesale.com for about 5 years now and I have handled the online advertising for thousands of clients. Not once have I ever dealt with a situation or a customer like Chris from Dow Superstore Inc., aka www.dowsuperstore.com. This company illegally and fraudulently paid us for advertising using a pay pal account. I want to warn other media outlets and buyers about this company. Pay Pal told us that we should should press criminal charges, so we are. In the mean time, if you are allowing this company to advertise or if you are buying from them, beware because they are scam artists.

Dow Superstore paid JP Communications Inc for advertising through pay pal. Pay pall released the funds into our account and we processed the funds to Dow’s account. We gave Dow Superstore Inc. $1,000 in pay per click funds and we started designing an email for them which cost $800. Services were given to Dow.

A few days later, Pay Pal took money out of our account telling us that Dow was a fraud company and that they did not have any funds in their account.

On July 9, 2009, Dow emailed my company and told me that he sent us $1800 for advertising on Top Ten Wholesale and for our company to design and send an email. Pay Pal cleared the funds and we added $1,000 to his pay per click account and spent hours designing and testing out the email he paid $800 for. 2-3 days later, Pay Pal took the $1800 out of our account and said that the payment Dow sent us was a fraudulent payment. I contacted Dow, and Chris told me it was an error. He then told me that he would have the funds to us shortly and never paid. On August 21st, 2009, Chris told me that he would send us a check for the advertising seeing as that he already used the funds up. Dow never sent the check and he owes JP Communications $1800 for PPC funds spent and time spent on designing, coding, and testing email.

I have had multiple conversations with Chris Dow and one conversation with Jimmy. They both pretended that it was an error and that they would have the funds back to me. On August 21, 2009, I called Chris Dow from www.dowsuperstore.com and he finally picked up the phone. He told me that he would send me a check for $1,000 to start making good on his bill. I was at trade shows most of the month of August and returned on Sept. 2. Dow Superstore did not send the check. It does not take more than 5 business days for a check to get mailed.

If anyone is interested in learning more, I have saved all our email contact so I can prove to you that the owners and others staff members at Dow Superstore Inc. are liars and scam artisits. Here are just some of the email conversations between Chris Dow and myself:

I will call you monday afternoon.

Tell me about it. The funds are coming out of my commission for being

a nice guy and putting a push on the order so I’m hoping we can get

the funds in asap. This is why we don’t like dealing with pay pal and

prefer cc or check.

What else is going on? How’s business? How long has Dow been around for?

You mainly an internet business or is this new for you?

Thanks Chris. Let me know how we are going to work this out asap

so I can tell my COO.

In short, publisher, buyers and sellers beware. If he is willing to scam a service provider that helps bring his company business, I can only imagine what he is willing to do to people that buy from him. If anyone has any questions about this company, feel free to contact me.

Dow Super Store Inc are Scam artists. You will lose your money if you order anything from this website. They never answer emails. Rarely pick up the phone. When they do they always have an excuse. They do not accept credit cards. They expect you to wire money to them. Then you never receive the products you order. SCAMMERS!!!!!

Hi,

I am a buyer. I purchased iphones 3gs from dow superstore last month, but they never ship the order nor give me a refund. They even do not reply my email. What should I do? I report to police office but they said this is a civil issue so they can do nothing! They said Dow is out of country these days and can not be back untill next Monday! I can not believe their stories any more…
Do you know what should I do?

Thank you!
