Agreed. This one is sketchy to me as well. Reasons being:

1) As an experienced web developer and internet marketer, for one I can tell you SocialLive is NOT the next big social network. Want proof?

They basically are using a clone script, called PhpFox, http://www.phpfox.com/ which only costs $99 to buy. Here is the demo: http://live.phpfox.com/demo/

Look familiar? That's SocialLive for ya.

2) HostWire.com has probably less than 500 customers. Look at the Alexa rank, roughly 946,000... the higher that number, the less the traffic a site gets. For instance, Google has an Alexa rank of 1. Comparatively, iHub, has an Alexa rank of 1981. Most hosting sites are in the low thousands, or hundreds. HostWire.com, for supposedly being around since 2002 is not even close to being competitive, and there are barely any real reviews by actual people on the service.

3) Now that I've explained Alexa rank... you'll know why USMarineLights.com having a rank of 7,915,073 is a bad thing... I doubt they get very many orders.

Also very fishy... I called up the phone number at the top of the USMarineLights website: 1-888-265-6781 ... and I got an automated response that said "The magic jack customer you are trying to reach is unavailable to take your call, please leave a message after the tone"

Does that sound like a professional company that sells lighting? I'd think at least they'd have a professional auto answering service with info on their hours and the company. And they use magic jack for their company phone?? That sounds really cheap and scammy.

4) ChooseCreditCards.com - at the bottom of their site it says: "Copyright © 2002 - 2012 Choose Credit Cards" - how is that possible when the domain "ChooseCreditCards.com" was registered May 25, 2006?? That's according to official WhoIs Domain Registry records. Oh, and does this design/layout look familiar: http://demo.woothemes.com/swatch/ ? That's because they're using that Wordpress theme... again hardly, much of a business venture, and with an Alexa rank of a mere 2,226,402 ... seems like they could have thrown it all up in a weekend or so. I doubt it makes a dollar a month in revenue.

Lastly, "warriorgirlcorp.com" was registered less than 2 months ago on December 30, 2011. So if this company is so well established in supporting internet ventures, how come they only registered their own website domain less than 7 weeks ago?

Be very careful, this has fast pump-and-dump written all over it.
