Hi Warren,

Congratulations! You have been chosen for the Pimp Your Ride Sponsorship! Before we go into the details on your exciting new sponsorship we want to thank you and our sponsors for making this opportunity possible. Without VerticalDoors Inc, Tsunami, RevPM.com, Blaupunkt USA, Optimal Graphics Inc., StreetFX, and our other exclusive sponsors, this would not be possible. If you are not familiar with these companies and the types of sponsorships they award, we suggest that you visit our website to learn more.

Also, because you only filled out our fast app, our sponsors require some additional questions about you and your future car plans. For your convenience, I have set up a web page for you. Please go to https://www.carsponsorships.com/ and answer the questions to the best of your ability. Please keep in mind; we have the right to refuse your application for any reason. To ensure success, please answer the questions appropriately, clearly and truthfully. Please submit your answers as soon as possible. Once submitted, we will contact you via email or phone within 24 hours.

In the meantime, please gather any photos of your vehicle as we may require those at some point during the sponsorship period for before/after press releases.

Sincerely,

Ragen St. Peter
'Pimp Your Ride' Campaign Manager
East Coast Division

 

Haha i went to the link they gave me and i have to put my creditcard info in , And it says

Your card WILL NOT BE CHARGED unless you are awarded a Sponsorship Contract as described in our terms and conditions from the following companies: VerticalDoors Inc., Blaupunkt USA, Decalkits.com, Tsunami Audio, StreetFX, RevPM.com, Max-It-Out Video, FlameKitz, and R-Blox Sound Control.

it says i would be charged 89 dollars if choosen ... what is this stuff?

 

it's called a scam. Carsponsorship.com is nothing but a joke

 

A33's right. I knew a bunch of people who did the carsponsorships.com thing all the while me telling them it was a scam. But no, they happily paid their $90 each and got their super-cool decalkits.com sponsorship...

..And nothing else.

Free stickers...wooohooo!

 

Jesus....why would ANYONE give some online site their credit card numbers without KNOWING EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO GET IN RETURN!?!?!?!

If they really wanted to "sponsor" your car, they would be sending you things, and you wouldn't have to pay for them!

Like the above post states, you're going to end up having spent $90 for a pair of kewl stickers from decalkits.com.

Even if, look at the other companies:

- verticaldoors, inc: you really want those gay lambo doors on your ride?

- Blaupunkt: who uses Balupunkt car audio these days?

- Tsunami audio: ok, so you'll get some free 2-gauge wires maybe.

- all the others: never heard of them.

call your credit card company and BLOCK ANY CHARGES FROM THAT COMPANY, else you might as well burn money or flush it down the toilet. Sorry these guys scammed you, but always ask here firts before doing something like this - you're not the first or the last person to get scammed by this group.

 

Think about this.... they want you to PAY THEM to be sponsored? hmmmmmmm. Scam? I'm not so sure...

 

i sponsor myself.

 

the accounting department of the Rockford Park District sponsors me. and my dad

 

My thoughts exactly. Why would a "sponsorship" need YOUR credit card info?

Makes no sense at all, did you even think before you went ahead with that?

 

No i was just wondering i dident give them **** , Im not that stupid ,before i posted this , I knew the only thing they would prolly send me is some stickers ....

 

Werd.

<--Sponsored by my ****** wallet.

 

forget what I said earlier, they have sponsorships to FlameKitz

woot!

 

Maybe you deserved to be scammed.

 

who got scammed? if i am reading correctly, all of you are not paying attention, he even says he was just wonder and was not stupid enough to give them his CC info.. jeez...

im sponsored by walgreens

 

I'm sponsored by mile hi valet service.

 

its a scam...

first of all, they call it " pimp YOUR ride" so its nothing to do with pimp MY ride.

second, they only charge your credit card when u get sponsored. So they have a sticker company make some stickers, then they say its worth XXX, then they charge you and you are stuck with creppy stickers and a charge on your CC.

They make you think that you will get a crazy sponsorship because they ONLY charge when YOU get sponsored, but they create another company that makes stickers to scam you.

 

I did not say i did this sponser **** , infact i say that i did not do this .

 

wtf is a sponser?

 

If that is the case then wtf is the point of this thread? Looks like you wanted to be sponsered or whatever.

 

Hahahaha your just sooooo funny!

 

No i just threw in some fake info to see what would come up , You really think i would want to sponser my 1988 nissan maxima? In about a half of month i am getting a 240sx and swaping a RB25DET into it.

 

Again so why in the hell would you make yourself look like an idiot by asking about this sponsership crap?

Go ahead and built your front heavy, iron block drifto 240

 

I really dont see how i am making my self look like a idiot , but what ever floats your boat. I really was just wondering if any one has seen this before.

 

Please explain WHY would anyone that's not a complete imbecil do this before?

 

my friend did it payed up got the stickers from decalkits and a set of side graphics thats it tried to get me in i told him id try after he got his done

 

Because they are cool.

 

Buhahahahahha!!!! Im sorry dude...but youve been owned...and now your short 80 bux...

 

i bought into that carsponsorships.com bulls**t. total waste of money, they wouldn't help me out with anything! don't do it!

 

HOLY **** can you read my post ? I DIDENT even do that bull**** , About half of you people are telling me im an idioit for doing the car sponser**** , But if you read down you can see i dident do it , I was just wondering if any one has been ripped off by this ****.
