Was AGLOCO.com a Scam After All?
Oh no, say it ain’t so folks. Agloco.com ran out of funds? I once had an AllAdvantage account and even received a check. I guess my gut told me otherwise about Agloco. After months of waiting on Agloco to give me a link to download the toolbar, I finally got the email, installed the toolbar and only used it once. I have not looked back since. My instincts were kicking in.
I received the below email, earlier this week:
from: AGLOCO.com Service <emai...@agloco.com>
to: Rashaan
date: Dec 11, 2007 4:53 PM
subject: AGLOCO Update Notice
mailed-by: agloco.com
Dear Rashaan,
We would like to update you on the status of AGLOCO’s operations. We continue to believe in the AGLOCO concept, but our revenue is currently not sufficient to give Members a meaningful distribution. And though there are increases in membership, the resulting revenue is not enough to support operating costs. As a development team we are unable to continue to use our savings to fund the operations. If any Member would like to pursue continuing the operations of AGLOCO, you may contact us at aglo...@live.com .
We would like to thank every Member for supporting our effort to bring a piece of the Internet directly to the user. We hope that we can find a way to keep the operations going.
AGLOCO Development Team
What the hell happened? I wonder how many people contacted them to pursue continuing the operations…
Goodness.

You and me both, Rashaan. I got a couple of cheques from AllAdvantage - indeed, one of them was for $50. And yet I ran the Agloco bar only once too, precisely because of the same gut feeling that you had.
I had great hopes for AGLOGO. It appears the advertising-world incumbents were unwilling to let consumers own a piece of their economic pie.
