They advertised some really nice looking products and then said you get 10 free bids. I thought that was bids to use and decide if you really wanted to sign up. Asked for card info, which I thought was for in case I won a bid and WHAM...charge $99.00 immediately. Once in, the products were nothing like what they originally advertised. It's the same products over and over again and they are not very good products. Nothing I'd want and I want my $99.00 back!!

  • You know I used all the bids available and several times when it got down to 1 second, I'd set there and count to 10 or 15 seconds not seeing a change until suddenly a new bid came in. Not a slow computer cause the other bids were constantly changing (none that I was bidding on) and when I clicked to bid again it immediately updated. The only time it didn't quickly update was when it got down to 1 second and you'd wait and wait and wait, then all the sudden there was a new bid. It's always the same products over and over again, nothing new and not very much either. I just don't like the way my $99.00 was sneakily taken. I used all the bids because I just wanted it to go away and all emails will now be blocked and I'll not be back.

  • Hey Cynthia,

    I did some investigating into grabswag after being ripped off by these cronies and i found out who was behind this scam. GrabSwag.com, is a scam, partnered with a company called IMM Interactive/Copeac which is owned by Mike Krongel, which is a scam affiliate network that sends consumers to these sites via fake news articles and gets paid for it. If you click on one of the fake news sites that they are running below, and in internet explorer use webpage privacy, you will see emediatrack.com, on the privacy, which is owend by IMM Interactive/Copeac ( This is how I found out who was behind it). IMM Interactive and Mike Krongel has duped consumers out of millions of dollars says the FTC, by running fake news sites, like the one linked below, and they are currently being sued by the FTC, for false advertising and deceptive marketing practices, for using fake news websites like the one linked below. Here is a link to the lawsuit: http://www.ftc.gov/os/caselist/1023232/index.shtm

    The FTC is trying to stop them but apparently can't. Lets get these people shut down!!! Report GrabSwag and IMM Interactive/Copeac, to the FTC, Attorney Generals, BBB, IC3, FBI and lets get a class action lawsuit going against both of these companies scambook!!!

    Here is one of their fake news sites they are behind, which if you do webpage privacy in internet explorer on the grabswag page, you will see " emediatrack.com" which links you straight to Copeac/IMM Interactive: http://www.consumerinfonews.com/deals-of-the-century/index4.html

    UPDATE HERE IS THE NEW FAKE WEBSITE IMM Interactive / MIKE KRONGEL IS USING TO LURE CONSUMERS TO THIS SCAM:

    Here is a link to the IMM website and the grabswag site that says free, yet charges you $99 : http://www.imminteractive.com
