Google is pointing out the companies that are running advertisements with taglines like, “Use Google to Make 1000s of Dollars!” or “Easy Cash with Google: You Could be Making up to $978 a Day Working from Home!” . Consumers who comes after noticing this issues will receive nothing except fake or fraudulent credit card charges, or DVDs with viruses.
“Google hasn’t developed any of the sites like those described in our complaints,” Jason Morrison, a Google support engineer, and Stacey Wexler, senior legal action counsel, wrote in a blog post. “False advertisements trying to take advantage of consumers in the middle of a difficult market, and as the economic situation has deteriorated, the problem has only grown.”Google estimates that lot of consumers have fallen victim to such scams. Consumers have sent lot of letters and mailed Google regarding fraudulent charges and many have asked to refund the charges yet Google is not connected to this issues.
According to the Google claim, Pacific WebWorks control a credit card processing site.
As a result of this problem, Google wants the court to forbid Pacific WebWorks and others from using its name, claiming to be associated with Google in any way, and committing acts that stain the Google name. Google also wants to have control over Google-related domain names like www.googlefortunemembers.com and www.googlemoneyprofits.com.
