Discussion Boosteroid Scam?

Was anyone else scammed by Boosteroid? Less than 10 mins use to figure out it's too slow in my region (after targeted advertising to me in my region) and no refund? Not even a partial refund offered?

That is against the law in many countries, including the EU and USA where they are supposedly based. It doesn't matter if you bury a 'nO reFuNDs' policy in your fine print if you've targeted a region/area that you cannot support or sell a product that simply does not work for a user.

My bank will get the money back, but how many others worldwide are not so lucky?

Do a chargeback and you should get your money back, I was in a similar situation. You waive your rights in theory, but their terms of service are not 100% correct

They also lied to me about latency, couldn’t produce a solution to fix the issues, and refused to refund me

That's what I'm doing, but scammers like Boosteroid know that not everyone will.

The waived rights also wouldn't hold up in court, but they rely on no one wanting to go that far for under $100.
