I have many people asking me if Swom is for real. Honestly I can`t answer your question. All I know is that if this was for real, it would be the best site to make money online. I am trying to digg more information but so far I haven`t had any luck. However, I did e-mail Swom support with following:
Hi, I would like to know if the swom admin will update us on what is going on with swom at the moment. I am a gold member and I can bring people in, but if I can`t anwer their questions I do not feel comfortable bringing them in. Lots of people in swom are wondering is this another scam, they want update from you. Please respond. If people don`t hear from you very soon they will go elsewhere. Btw if the program would work as stated it would be the best program online.
Thank you, Ivana Bagatin
If and when they answer, I will post the answer in here as well as on my profile in Swom! Until then hold on Upgrading to GOLD membership. I upgraded to test the site and to report to my downline. As far as commissions, so far I referred over 60 people in 2 days very easily, some of them upgraded to GOLD and my income is growing very fast.
If this IS REAL, we could all be very whealty in no time!
I will keep getting free members but will advise AGAINST upgrading until further notice. Join FREE, make as many connections as you can, and promote your other opportunities. More people you get to know, the better.
Stay tuned for updates!







Interesting post as for me. I’d like to read more about that topic. Thanx for sharing that information.
SWOM Could Be A Scam: Read On.
Here is a Doozy Proceed with caution until this problem has been rectified by this company.I urge you to be very careful especially with sending out your link .If it appears like this do not send it ..http://www.swom.com/?r=00000yourname or you will lose your friends this is how it should appear..http://www.swom.com/?r=00000 Actual Case Study now happening as we speak.: TRUE STORY:
I received a link and joined it ..Checked it out and it appeared ok new start up ..so I sent my invite link to my
wife . Only to find out she is not in my group and is in fact under a Hans Pettersson whom neither of us know or have any past dealings with.
Despite repeated requests both to this fellow and also to Jack Whitehall( Owner Of Swom) whom both appear to be of very low Ethical and Moral Fibre .Jack Whitehall ‘s reply after emails From Both my Wife & myself explaining what has transpired and asking him to rectify this problem which by all accounts is not an isolated case,

Hi we have Hans Pettersson as your referrer. We cannot change referrers as that would not be fair to the person who originally referred you.
The only way we can change it is if your referrer (Hans Pettersson) opens a support ticket and confirms that he did not refer you.
when My Wife tried to reply She was not able to After many repeated efforts on our part The RAT is starting to get smelly
IS SWOM A SCAM ????
As This is placed Here I am an active member of Swom I have made contact with 14,430 people here in nuder 2 weeks.3870 have made contact with me so I do stand to Lose a lot if it is for real . How ever if it is a scam as I am now suspecting it is I would say Hold all Tickets.It Will be very interesting to see if and how long they keep me as a member now that I have posted this ..Which if they rectify this Immediatly and correct it as per our wishes then I am happy to post a full retraction & Give My Full apologies We can then get on with Business.

Wayne,
Keith asked that I forward a copy to you of all the correspondence I have had with Andy (swom Support) to get this situation resolved. Keith is pissed, and frankly, the longer this goes on, so am I!
I’m posting the message in date order:

Keith Dando #47779 was the person who referred me to SWOM and I signed up directly from his page. From what I understand, I am still not showing in his downline, which also means he is not being paid for my upgrade to gold member.
I believe he has already contact you numerous time about this, but I wanted to make sure you know this was the case from me as well.
Please resolve this as quickly as possible so he can be paid appropriately.
Thank you for your prompt resolution!
Sincerely,
Laura Corby #48892

Can you please tell me also, who I am placed under right now? I don’t know how I could have ended up with someone else since I signed up from Keith’s page directly.
If there is anything else I need to do personally to resolve this issue, please let me know ASAP.
Thank you! Laura

Hey Andy! Something is wrong then. I had never even heard of SWOM until Keith sent me his link and the first time I visited his site, I signed up. I don’t even know Wendeng Sun, nor did he recruit me. Not sure what has happened here, but this needs to be sorted. Keith should be getting the benefit of having recruited me. He’s one of my best friends, so I would not have signed up under anyone else.
Please tell me what I need to do to get this moved to Keith, where it should have been to begin with.
Thanks!

Hi Laura,
Can you send me the link that Keith sent you?
I’m afraid you are going to have to contact Wendeng Sun and ask him to contact us agreeing to give you up.
This is the only fair way. We will then transfer you to Keith.
Kind regards
Andy

Andy,
I will contact him, but just for what it’s worth, that’s really not what’s fair. I don’t even know this other person and there’s obviously a glitch in the system somewhere. I had never even heard of SWOM before Keith talked to me about it and he’s losing out on all the work that he has done, not to mention the training he has given me and the benefits he should be reaping from that.
The link that I signed up under was http://swom.com/?r=47779
Just for what it’s worth, Wendeng contacted me after I upgraded to gold and said that you for enrolling and upgrading. This was before I knew there was a problem. I told him that I did not sign up under him, but rather under Keith and there must be a mistake. I heard no more about it.
If you look at my contact records, you can clearly see where he was advised of this at the onset. Andy, Keith is someone who is busting his rear end to make this work for him, and for SWOM. Please consider doing the right thing and putting me where I belong. In the end, when we operate ethically, the long run always pays off to our advantage. Please do the right thing.
Sincerely,
Laura Corby

Andy – Here’s the letter I just sent Wendeng, for your records:
Hello Wendeng!
Don’t know if you remember or now, but about a week ago, you contacted me and thanked me for enrolling and upgrading. I responded saying there must be a mistake, as I enrolled under Keith Richards. I didn’t hear any more about it, until the last few days.
We realized this week that there really was a mixup and that I was not put under Keith, but rather under you. There is obviously some glitch in the system, as I have never heard of SWOM before talking to Keith and I registered from his direct link. I have never even heard of you prior to your contacting me.
We advised management about the issue and asked them to resolve it and this was their response, and in turn, my return response:

Wendeng,
As customer service suggested, I am asking you to do the ethical thing and release me so I can be placed where I should have been put in the first place, under Keith Dando.
I have no idea how this happened, but you and I both know your recruiting efforts are not what brought me here and from an integrity standpoint, it’s only right to return to Keith what should rightfully be his.
Thank you, in advance, for your consideration and prompt response.
Sincerely,
Laura Corby

There have been no responses to my attempts to resolve this to Wendeng Sun as of yet. I really hope this is not going to just be left as is. The bad press this could leave would be much worse than moving one person correctly.
Again, than you for doing the right thing!

Andy,
It’s now very obvious to me that Wendeng Sun has no intention of assisting in this matter. He has not only NOT responded to any of my emails and wall posts, he has now also completely blocked me from his page so I cannot contact him.
I expect this situation to be rectified immediately. This has gone on entirely too long and is absurd. I love SWOM and plan on bringing a lot of business and money to this site, however, in good conscience, I cannot endorse an organization that chooses not to take care of it’s people and do the ethical thing, especially when it was NOT an error on our part, rather obviously some type of computer error on your end.
What needs to happen to get this resolved Andy?
Sincerely,
Laura Corby, Founder/CEO
Well, this makes intersting reading….. Have heard that many people who have gold, under a referral, have been ‘poached” by other people.
When question by swom, to get their referral back, they are ignored. Even the person, who ‘poached’ them have blocked that person!!!!
Thoughts???
So Readers It Is Not an Isolated problem .Laura also has a huge contact Base .But has put a hold on all her activities as have a dozen of more key people we have whom were testing this .This is only part of the issues I had to fight for another Lost one and they stated He had a different Email address but we see he was referred by you as for the Other one I was asking where he has gone they said he has no referrer.So I have not got back to him yet until I see a positive outcome here.
Well, as of yet, there has still been no resolution to the situation of my being placed under someone else I don’t know, rather than who I enrolled under.
This is disturbing as not only is this fraudulent, but the person who enrolled me, Keith Dando, is losing the income due him for the business I have generated.
I can only hope that SWOM will do the right and ethical thing here, as a bad reputation is difficult to overcome. It seems to be a great opportunity, but if they are not willing to resolve issues such as this, I cannot be involved in good conscience.
I’ll keep you posted if anything changes.
Laura
This Is part of the conversation with the perpetrator of this Dishonest dealing…What would you do if you were in Our Place ???
Hans Pettersson It will not solve the problem. Why not just delete your account (when upgrade expire) and rejoin from correct link? If you can do that I will send you the referral bonus when I am paid. I can’t do anything now as I requested payout and can’t change that. I hope money will recieve soon.
Noelene Iremonger Listen up Why should we have to delete our account and forgo the many thousand members we have joined up just because you want to seel money and people that are not rightfully yours ..when we requested this to happen way before you asked for payment all you do is send requested change of referrer.
Wayne Iremonger
Hans ,We Are a Husband and wife Team And neither of us Know you !!!! so please do the Ethical & Moral thing We have set up a support message and it appears that you must do the same: This is the third time we have asked you to Fix this .. Wayne Iremonger
As It Has unfolded so Far.
Hello Wayne!
Sorry for the Swom problems.
We will solve it.
I realize is no good you delete the account.
But I can’t fix it until next payment done (only 6 days left). I left money in account for next month.
If you are moved before that Swom will take money from my account and my subscription will be interupted.
I can’t risk lose ALL my downline.
I hope you understand and have patience.
Also give me a copy of your ticket in this matter and the # and I will
send a ticket with your referens right after next payment.
Regards,
Hans Pettersson
Wayne to missing email.
Ok I just found this email,
my previous one should have let you know my stance on this matter ..
Why should I care if you lose money and or down line..
When you Did not act in a proper manner and say something much earlier.
To Say I am Pissed is an understatement and want it sorted now .You should have thought about this before trying to be deliberately deceitful…what subscription $25 -00 Boo Bloody Hoo not my problem you chose to take this path not me ..
wayne
Hans Pettersson ,
sorry, I think we are done!
Wayne Iremonger
Ok Great so that means you have sorted it out with admin at swom???
Have Not Heard from Admin or Hans Pettersson at this time will keep you updated..
Lets start a Do not have any Business dealings with these people : Black List I may even Start a Group if I am around long enough..As Their ethics and Morals Need a lot to be desired..

“An Actual Ad In An American Newspaper.”
AN ACTUAL CRAIG’S LIST PERSONALS AD
To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night before last.
Date: 2009-05-27, 1 :43 a.m. E.S.T.
I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also asked for my girlfriend’s purse and earrings. I can only hope that you somehow come across this rather important message.
First, I’d like to apologize for your embarrassment; I didn’t expect you to actually crap in your pants when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket.. The evening was not that cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason.. My girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber Model 1911 .45 ACP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder holster for it that very evening. Obviously you agree that it is a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head … isn’t it?!
I know it probably wasn’t fun walking back to wherever you’d come from with that brown sludge in your pants. I’m sure it was even worse walking bare-footed since I made you leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet with me. [That prevented you from calling or running to your buddies to come help mug us again].
After I called your mother or “Momma” as you had her listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode of what you’d done. Then I went and filled up my gas tank as well as those of four other people in the gas station, — on your credit card. The guy with the big motor home took 150 gallons and was extremely grateful!
I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go’s, along with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his day!]
I then threw your wallet into the big pink “pimp mobile” that was parked at the curb …. after I broke the windshield and side window and keyed the entire driver’s side of the car.
Later, I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cell phone. Ma Bell just now shut down the line, although I only used the phone for a little over a day now, so what ‘s going on with that? Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening phone calls to the DA’s office and one to the FBI, while mentioning President Obama as my possible target.
The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice long chat (I guess while he traced your number etc..).
;In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you … but I feel this type of retribution is a far more appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you well as you try to sort through some of these rather immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you have the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider, the career path you’ve chosen to pursue in life. Remember, next time you might not be so lucky.Have a good day!
Thoughtfully yours,
Alex

Wendeng,
ALL I NEED YOU TO DO IS SEND A MESSAGE TO SWOM ADMIN TELLING THEM THERE WAS A MIXUP AND THAT YOU DID NOT RECRUIT ME AND YOU ARE RELEASING ME TO BE PLACED UNDER KEITH DANDO. That’s it, nothing more, bottom line. Will you do this or not? It’s a simple yes or no question and I need to know the answer immediately. No more beating around the bush and asking questions. Yes or No?

Andy,
Here is a message I just received from Wendeng, agreeing to move me under Keith, where I belong. He has said he will contact you, but I wanted to forward this message in case, so you can see he has in fact agreed, so we can get this moving. He has also said something about waiting until after the 25th, which is not valid, as I should have never been put there to begin with and he should not be making that commission, Keith should. Please remove me from Wendeng and place me under Keith immediately, now that you can see he has agree.
Thank you! Laura

Thank you for doing the right and honest thing. I am grateful.

I love SWOM. It has changed things around for me. In only 2 weeks I had made a $35 profit, after paying for membership. I have nothing but good to say about it. Great discussion.
