Between:

a) absolutely horrible, meaningless copy.

b) A very poorly designed website.

c) a very weird photo of gazelle which appears to have been taken from aliexpress.com (http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Animal-Gazelle-2-Poster-3-Siz...)

d) a host shared by another 18,000 websites (according to Bing)

This company genuinely does not look real. I understand that the writer would be extremely excited by the prospect of a $4m investment, but I also feel like he should have done a little more due diligence. Based on what I see, I can't imagine genuinely expecting to receive $4m from this firm...



So you imply that the website claiming Cecile is a scammer, is a scammer, too. That's possible but the suspicions you talked about are not conclusive.

Last week I've come across a website called tinnitusmiracle.com and a person called Duane claimed that that website was a scammer by presenting convincing evidences; see (http://fixedgear808.blogspot.com.tr/2015/03/tinnitus-miracle...)


Oh no, not at all...

Rather, I went to http://world-glance.com/ (aka Cecile's website), gave it a quick read, checked out the images, and figured out where it was hosted.

Between those things, World Glance does not look very professional.

I'm sorry that I wasn't more clear!!!


Hi there -- please share how one can find out how many websites are sharing a host via Bing.

Thanks!


Hi there;

I don't know if Bing's numbers are completely accurate and you may find better ways to get this information (dnsstuff.com is sure useful). In this case, I was looking into world-glance.com so I will use that website as an example.

1) ping world-glance.com - this shows an IP address of 94.136.40.15

2) Go to bing.com - search for 'IP:94.136.40.15' (without the quotes)

It will show 18,800 results.

I hope that this helps...:)


Just use DNSstuff. Her site is simply a branded Wordpress.com account.

Two things. First, cecileortlieb.com is not actually Cecile's website - it is the website that hosted that article which claims that she is a scammer.

Cecile claims to be with world-glance.com. He site would be here:

http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools#dnsReport|type=domain&&value=w...

Second, dnsstuff is great - I haven't used it before, but I have it bookmarked now.
