SwipeAuctions.com and World Vision, an unholy alliance?




I hate scamming of any type. I hate scamming online merchants and especially hate scamming charities that are sworn to help the needy but instead use many of the funds raised to supplement their manager’s lavish lifestyle and greed. After some research today it would appear that the unholy alliance between Jesse Willms’s Swipe Auctions Penny Gambling Website and World Vision would not be so far fetched as I first thought World Vision and their connection to Jesse Willms puffery of humanitaryism. Is it possible that World Vision has a very checkered past and present, with allegations of fraud and scamming? I found that not even the watchdog of the entire ministry would support further donations to this charity.

Feed the Children Fires Accountants
Ministry Fires Two of its Own Accountants After They Report Potential Fraud or Illegalities to the Ministry’s Board.
http://www.ministrywatch.com/pdf/MWDA-Feed-the-Children.pdf
Feed the Children, long accustomed to controversy yet still the largest ministry in the MinistryWatch.com database with nearly $1.2 billion in revenues, is being sued by its former Controller and another staff accountant for wrongful termination. According to the Oklahoman’s website, the two accountants claim that they were wrongly fired after going over their boss’s head to report what they believed to be the Chief Financial Officer’s intentional refusal to pay $1.1 million in taxes owed to the state of Oklahoma. Thus far the ministry and its Chief Financial Officer have not responded to these allegations. This is the sixth lawsuit the ministry has faced this year, including a lawsuit from five former board members who were relieved of their duties and then fought for and regained control of the ministry.

Very good report Red, I have wondered the same things myself. I see by the well placed Google ads in the right hand area that the Jesse Willms - World Vision team has been reading scamraiders discussions as soon as they appear.


Keep up the good work Red!

I didn't catch this post until just now while I was doing some background research. I would like to comment on the first two posts attributed to World Vision that you quote.

What you have there are 419 Nigerian scam emails. These low-lifes target everything they can get their hands on, including charity organizations. These are not World Vision sponsored emails, they are not Jesse Willms email. They are your typical spam emails looking to looking to cash in on human nature through an individuals natural sympathies and at the same time, their natural greed in making an easy buck. Once you provide them the information they desire, they will send you phony checks/money orders/western union, etc. and have you cash them and then send them the "balance" minus your cut, in this case, 10%. You then get left holding the bag when the bank and law enforcement comes a knocking looking for the money to be returned due to fraud.

While I agree that Jesse Willms attempting to clear his conscience by using World Vision is despicable, there is absolutely no evidence to suggest at all that he is sending out and promoting this 419 scam.
Red Rover, if you would oblige me with an e-mail I would greatly appreciate it. I work for Pigott, Ltd., a law office located in Toledo, Ohio. We are in the final stages of a class action complaint against SwipeAuctions.com.

I need your opinion or any information you have regarding "Cloud Servers."

We are representing the Plaintiffs in this soon to be class action and are not affliated with SwipeAuctions or Jesse Willms in any way. Our website is http://www.pigottlaw.com and my e-mail is ted.mcclain@pigottlaw.com

Please e-mail me at your convenience, as I believe your help to be invaluable on this matter, and would give us the information necessary to proceed with this class action against these entities/individuals.
Ted, I really don't know how I can help you in this as I am only a layman with very limited knowledge of the mechanics of this technology. I do offer my opinion though, that many "tricks" are used by unethical web sites to display chosen information only to a home viewer purposely to deceive and trap individuals into seemly innocent actions that result in immediate charges to their credit or bank cards. This same technology is then used to mask this deception when presenting evidence to the merchant bank credit processor. That is only an opinion I have drawn from personal experience. The sheer volume of the similar complaints that all state exactly the same thing “ I did not see that I was to be charged when I put my information into that form, but the web site has guided me to a version of the same page that does display that membership charges will be applied” suggest that this is exactly what has occurred.
