Many of these (and .set files with the settings of all the commercial rip-offs) are easily and freely downloadable on 4xproject.com if you sign up for a free membership :)

Forex Bling, sold from www.forexbling.com is acopy from the EA called DragonPips. Sold here: www.dragonpips.com.

Now the big surprise. Both source codes are 100% identical with rdb_thunder. It is a EA developed in free forex forum.

Zip folder inlcudes source from rdb_thunder.

You are free to put it here, i am not hiding anything and i have responded both on the sure forex topic and to you privately via email. I know you want to get the word out about how terrible i must be now for inadvertantly positively reviewing something which has potential issues but i am responding to it and dealing with this. This is not a clear cut scam case as in a blatant robot copy and i have explained this to you in detail in our private email. I cannot make rash decisions one way or another on this issue and i need to be able to consult with legal advice. As i've said there and everywhere else, if i purposely wanted to write a positive review about a scam product i'd do it over one that meant i'd get a lot more money than a potential measly $200 (total, all sales) or so which is about what i'd earn from this product.
 
Thanks for understanding.

I removed my former post, as I was calling someone a scammer, because he apparently dissappeared after my payment. Well, as he appeared again, and I could talk to him, I apologize.

ouch! I guess it was a wire-transfer for payments (always be wary as you've no come-back), but if not and it went via paypal or credit card, then file a complaint and see if you can retrieve your funds :)

As you can see from my new post above, I was a bit too hasty. I could contact that person and got a refund. So, everyone is happy again.  :)
