Kars4Kids review: Poor service! 45

http://www.kcchronicle.com/articles/2007/11/06/business/local/doc4730548f382c6122372766.txt
Check this out! It tells the whole story about Kars 4 Kids! What a scam!

No charity can give you (legally) the blue book value as you described. They lied. The blue book is no longer even an accepted way to do a valuation for a donated vehicle.

The law changed January 1 2005. There are a few charities that can get you fair market value and offer vacation vouchers from more reputable companies. You can get FMV if the charity makes significant intervening use of your vehicle or even sells it for far below market value to a needy individual.

Try onlinecardonation.org for a good one. They actually give vehicles away to families and other charities that need them. They are all volunteer do not spend money on advertising (billboards, radio, print, sponsored ads etc.) they actually help people... and if you look a little harder you will find a couple core like them.

I ran across a similar situation with them. I did a little research and found out they are an Orthodox Jewish organization and trick us into thinking we are helping kids.. You can do searches on them to verify. Ridiculous..

Orthodox Jewish organizations don't help kids?! They "trick" you? How?

Also, I'm sure they didn't assert that you can get the full KBB value. They say as much in their published FAQs.

Sometime ago I read a piece in the Tribune that this organization was selling the donated cars. I never saw anything again about this. The article might have been in the paper sometime last year.

Orthodox Jewish organization scams have been around for many years specially in the new york metropolitan area, usually based out of brooklyn new york... can't really speak out against them since there is no government regulations built around these organizations and i personally do not want to be labeled an "anti-semite" and have the U.S.A. Patriot act monitor me so i just personally stay away from these people...

I would actually steer clear of www.onlinecardonation.org...you can find out why here: http://donation-scammers.blogspot.com/ (run by a ccriminal, basically). If you really want to help, try www.800charitycars.org

So the last comment about OCD.org?
Dr Phil, the videos, the people they help and other charities that these guys give to are aall in on the whole thing.
Sorry but that does not make much sense.
I read the other stuff too and I would rather see someone turn their life around than hold the past against them. I suppose that means that anyone who commits a crime should be put to death because small minded people will never allow them to change and do good?
So their only chance at becoming a productive member of society should be kept from them.
This is America Pal, not a communist country. Quit hating because people are doing good.
Besides, it sounds too much like someone with a grudge against the person and not the charity. Probably a disgruntled Ex. The charity seems perfectly legit and I seriously doubt all of those other charities and Dr Phil are in on some sort of scheme to defraud.
800 charity cars seems to be defrauding as they claim to give cars away but when you call they say they are not taking applications until 2011?
I know, I just called.
That is the only claim to fame so to speak and they are really not even doing that!
Shame on them!

By OCD.ORG, you mean onlinecardonation.org right? Thats weird that you would type it that way, unless you are Cameron Arballo and afraid Google is going to pick this thread up and index it. I seriously doubt a narcissistic career criminal will change his ways. He is a sexual deviant judging from his criminal history (and some comments I have seen about him in other places), and study's show these people never change.

He was imprisoned while he was supposedly doing his good deeds with Works Of Life, only recently getting out of jail. He is only turning his life around for his own good. Dr. Phi? An unfortunate oversight by the Dr. Phil staff that has given false legitimacy to this organization. He has a couple agreements with charities only to make himself look good - I bet at least 90% of the profits go straight into his pocket Throwing a few dollars around doesn't impress me at all. If he is so great, why is he being investigated? If he is so great, how come he doesn't become a real non-profit? Ill tell you why - because he would have to make his financial records publicly available. He is a FAKE reverend - anyone could both become a reverend overnight if we wanted to and pull the same kind of scams...problem is it will and is catching up to him. He is on the run and scheming how to keep this scam going. Do some research, call the IRS, call the Attorney Generals - you will see! Cameron Arballo, Works of Life, With Causes, OnlineCarDonation.org

I dare you Cameron Arballo to take me to court for slander. All my kids will be ready to testify against you for molest, rape, theft, killing animals and threatening those little lives ...Come on... We can tell the world. If I am lying then just take me to court. I will take you on. Patricia Anne Wallace.

Oh, and Reverand Arballo, I am sure you are helping these poor unfortunate abused women and children because you care so deeply. Remember, I am the one you beat up at Sunrise Mall parking lot, with our two babies. Remember the blood all over? And, my kids you abused ? Are you helping women and children the way you helped us? The only help you are giving is to yourself. Or don't you remember the spousal abuse that was recorded in Sacramento. Did you know my pages and pages of what you did and how I felt was going to be used to train police officers ... the woman officer asked for permission to use it to help officers understand co-dependency ... So why don't you answer this one? You should still be locked up and would be if everything had been brought up more timely. Patricia Anne Wallace

The worst in my opinion is Kars 4 Kids.. I just did a search on them through spy4u and it shows they spend between $11, 000 to $38, 000 DAILY on google adwords alone! That isnt even including all of the billboards I see here on the Jersey Turnpike and lets not even bring up their Kars 4 Kids song on the radio all the time. Obviously people are just looking for the easiest way to get rid of their car and why not help a kid? Unfortunately Kars 4 Kids is hiding under their real name which is Oorah whose specific goal is awakening Jewish children and their families to their heritage. Nothing to do with the term "kids" most of us think we are helping.

Too bad there isnt some sort of "Charity Police Department" that can shut these charities down. Newspaper reporters and TV reporters such as Shame On You have even done reports on these obvious fraudsters trying their best to inform the public with no long term results. Its just sad to me to see charity turning into a business rather then its true meaning and intention.

As far as all this other crap about this other car donation charity, seems like they are doing what they say. I agree with the person that said let the past be the past. Why dont you guys go and fight about it someplace else. This is a page talking about Kars 4 Kids..

Sorry, 1 more thing. I just looked up 800 Charity Cars mentioned above who is really dba Charity Cars. Is that you posting above Mr. Brian Menzies - the president of 800 Charity Cars? Why do you feel you should be paid more than the Vice President of the United States? $301, 000 a year? My god. Talk about a scammer.

Stan, stop trying to be deceptive. You are Cameron Arballo - and Cameron Arballo is also V. Everett - the new director of "Works of Life" according to the horribly written damage control PR piece you wrote. What is funny is that V. Everett just happens to also be the same person who posted first on this page almost 2 years ago slamming Kars 4 Kids while also praising Onlinecardonation.org...I could be wrong, but that might be considered fraud! And the comments in the press release you put out matches the comments made by you (Stan) above. What kind of charity slams other charities and organizations them promotes their own cause? I can count at least a dozen times where you have done this (your own website included).

Not only based on your heinous criminal history, it is clear your organization is looking out only for yourself. $300K/yr isn't that much - I bet you pocket a whole hell of a lot more - but we will never know because you hide your financial's under the guise of a ministry - and a fake one at that! The scope of your fraudulent activities is HUGE and it will catch up to you soon!

Stop living a lie and stop defrauding millions from people.

Have you seen what your OWN children have to say about you? WOW!

Oooh "Stan", I think you are busted! Cameron, time is running out. Your sins will find you out. Numbers 32:23.

CAMERON LEE ARBALLO-AKA-STAN-AKA-V EVERETTE,
tick tock, tick tock, "REVENGE IS MINE SAITH THE LORD." YOUR TIME IS COMING! DOES IT SCARE YOU?

Cameron, I thank God everyday you are not in my son's life! If it weren't for the blood tests we had to take to prove he was yours I would deny he was your son and take it to my grave! My son who is now 23yrs is doing great and he's beautiful with a kind heart... not at all like you! Thank you so much for not even trying to be in his life (actually it was more like hiding from having to pay child support but nonetheless..) Thanks for not one red cent.

I WAS ABOUT TO DONATE MY CAR, BUT READING THESE COMMENTS THERE IS NOT A

CHANCE IN HELL THAT I WILL GIVE THEM ANYTHING.

MY ONLY HOPE IS THAT OTHER PEOPLE WILL DO THE SAME. AND THIS WAY WE

CAN GET RID OF THESE LOW LIFES.

THESE ORGANIZATIONS ARE A BUNCH OF THIEVES.

Wow! I was going to donate a 2003 Saab 9 3 convertable to Kars for Kids, thanks to these comments I'm going to give it to a student down the street.These scams can easily be exposed by requesting to view their financials. signed Dave

The vacation is a scam there is none. The whole thing stinks1 "Never again" is right

I will just tell you that if you donate your car to kars 4 kids, you are donating your car to orthodox jewish kids summer camps and private schooling. Not starving, freezing, homeless, sick children of all races and creeds. These folks use the proceeds to buy land, build day camps, and pay for the clergy and mexicans who work at these camps. That said, I could not stand for ANY child to be distressed or at-risk, but these people are using these alarming terms in a misleading manner. This is a community that has men working for cash and claiming welfare for their families since their clergy is not certified for performing marraiges. Therefore the women collect welfare for all of the children they give birth to and raise, while the men are basically considered lifetime students which they recieve state and federal money for as well.

Hi i found this is a great place to donate your car . There web site is http://www.freshstartfellowship.net or http://www.freshstartfellowship.org they are a non profit that helps family's of people incarcerated. If you like go there web site to get more info just thought i would share this with you guy's.

I just donated a car to www.cars4moms.org it was a great experience. I was going to give it to cars4kids but after reading comments a friend suggest cars4moms. They help out single moms. Great experience.

Is Cameron Arballo from Sacramento, CA?

I think that car donation is the best way to help a charity since it may be useful.It gives a chance to poor people to enjoy a ride in a car.So i would say that donating a car is a nice way of donation.There is a company that deals with the car donation http://www.donatecarforcash.net/.

this man is still a pos threatening
a son cause his moms dying of cancer and he paying her cancer treatments but threatening to let her die because his sobs being a douch bag.. but don't u owe her this anyways u low life.

I would like to recant my statements. I was a scorned ex and have asked God.for forgiveness for harming any others this charity has helped. I see that it is a good thing. My daughter was dying of cancer and given NO hope. We had to fund alternative treatments. Cameron Arballo and his charity being Godly and forgiving has helped my daughter along the way. She may even be cancer free as the test results indicate the cancer has become less dense. Thank you for your forgiveness and help trying to save my child's life, even when I did NOT deserve the help. If I could delete my comments I would, unfortunately they do not allow me to. All I can ask is for forgiveness and say thank you for all your help Cameron Arballo.

I am so grateful for the donations to help my sister's cancer treatments. Thank you Works Of Life for helping and forgiving. My sister would not have made it this far without you!

obviously somebody got some wrong information. Thank you Cameron for helping save my sisters life, you went more than beyond to help not only my sister, but my entire family as well. you are a god send. I'm sorry my family has made things difficult for you just to get to other people, we have such a large family that theres always bound to be a screw or two lose.

Why would anyone want to take back their statements? If this monster was really as bad as u say he was WHY ON EARTH would u lead your fellow citizens to believe it was u being a "scorned ex"? Unless, he is paying u to retract your statements? He pays for your daughter cancer treatments under one condition...take back everything u said. Understandable. Im curious to see the outcome of this. where is the organization located?

I hope this will help with the above post and I know its allot to read
WOW This would probably explain allot about why certain things have been deleted off the Internet. Lucky for so many of us have printed and gathered so much we have plenty of information and are gathering more every day. As a past employer myself for Works Of Life international Ministries or also known as With Causes. The organization is nothing close to what it claims and I am working to expose them for all its worth. I have comprised lots of literature documents and proof Please if you have anything on this organization or Cameron Arbarllo also know as Vincent Everett yes he has two names for obvious reasons stated on this site please I would love to have it for my new site that is about to take off AboutWorksOfLife.com.

The organization Works Of Life INTL Ministries is a NV . Corporation #E0635572007-5 the tax number on the donation receipt's is [protected] this number can not be found or verified probably bogus and the corporation is managed by Deanna Lynn Couture out of Las Vegas. The address they list on the forms is 1081 s Cimmaron, Las Vegas, Nv. 89145. They claim to fall under the 501c but are not in any way a 501c the organization is going through a law suit at the moment by another reputable Charity that Cameron has tried so hard to bring Down. Well with the fear of loosing the law suit and being left out in the cold Cameron has developed a new organization. TheGivingCenter.org. This is another NV Corporation Tax id #[protected] and there address is stated as 6900 Westcliff Dr Ste 506 Las Vegas NV, 89145 . All this has been done just in case he looses the case and be forced to pay he would just close up dissolve Works Of Life. Cameron has also purchased another non profit organization that was built to be legitimate and compete against him called the The Learning Center.

Unfortunately we have never used this organization as it is registered and would require more paper work and filings with the IRS. Works of is a religious organization and they report nothing and do not have to show anything this the greatest opportunity to be a thief and have Its Church to hide behind. Apparently people do not want to challenge the organizations that are running as a church as its a big controversy but this is not a church and is soon to be exposed. This organization is not a church Cameron is supposably a reverend and did so acquire the status on line. He does not attend church they do not have services and there is no members to the church. The board is made up of the immediate employees that he has. The actual office location is 450-452 West Bedford Ave, Fresno, Ca. 93711. They accept all there Mail to 1175 Shaw Ave # 104-135, Clovis.93612 its just a mail box service so not to have to give out physical address.

The Charity is all built on leads from web sites and blog's and pages to increase there exposure this is all conducted and done by Web Master Alex Steigler of Web City Designs just a man who works from his home on his computer and moves every Year from state to state for what ever reasons. I have moved him several times from Long Branch NJ to Treasure Island Florida To Delray Beach Florida i was not asked to move him last as Cameron wanted to separate us but believe he has moved to the VA area or back to NY. Last i seen him was when i had to try and get his vehicle fixed a silver 2004 Toyota 4 runner the organization purchased for him in November 09 for 15900.00 I know as i was the one to do the transaction for them with the dealer in Orlando Fl.

Most of the previous post is true and i believe from another past employee I can verify that all items are sold on eBay or Craigslist or Copart immediately after we receive them regardless the law and situation. Items surveyed are surveyed at the Charity expense and again sold right away and i have several documents and records to prove nothing is held for any length of time like the law requires unless it is something Cameron is keeping in his personal collection.

i would gladly accept any information you would like to share and i would be glad to answer any questions that you may have about the organization. Please if you would like any information or share anything on Camron Arbarllo also know as Vincent Everrett or the organization send inquiry to aboutworksoflife@gmail.com. This is my own email for my own site and is not affiliated with the organization in any way.
I would be glad to share any documentation or contacts or numbers and would appreciate them in return. I am the previous east coast represenative for the organization and have handled and misled 1000s of donors on behalf of Cameron and the organization. We have been instructed by Cameron on what to tell donors or not tell them.

The organization now is using Brian J Cook of Bc Transport And Storage, LLC in Bartow, FL - and Ez Pay Motors, Inc. in Fort pierce Florida also owner of a couple Asian Massage Parlors in Columbia SC. Brian is being assisted with my past employee would be Justin Smith of Whitchomb limited in Webster Mass a full time employee of MAPFRE USA Corp and Formerly Commerce Ins Co. As my goal to expose the entire organization I would also love to have any information on Brian as well.
The Charity office is managed by a female that goes by Ginger this is a nick name and for obvious reasons she would not give her real name out to me even after i asked several times over the past two years. The accounting manager of the organization known to me is Stephanie Hernandez not sure if this is a real name or not. The help of the organization is relatively new and has all been changed in the past couple years .
The west coast of the us is handled by Tim Yarbrough he would be the rep in CA handling Donations.
By donating your boat or car to This organization we the transporters are entitled to all of our fees and then 40% of what is left for our commission. This is a big chunk out of what was intended for charity but unfortunately the balance does not reach charity as well and if any does its very little and like the above post states only if it will benefit the organization with positive publicity. I am sure i will get hate mail and many threats over this and i am sure Cameron will create users to counter comment but if you need to know for yourself check out my website and ask we will share documentation with you. Also i would be glad to hear anything that you may have or want to share on this organization and i apologize to any donors that i may have misled per order of Cameron Arbarllo also known as Vincent Evertt

Again anything that you would like to share can be sent to aboutworksoflife@gmail.com

As i have told those that have taken the time to email me the site will be complete and have more information than most will care to read. Among the information on the site will be where to report to the IRS pages Copies of the laws and how to find if a Charity is listed on IRS publications. I will not be posting your stories unfortunately unless you can supply adequate proof to document it. There will be a testimony page where you can post it your self but will require you to sign in with a password you create. The web site will list some organizations that are registered and report the earnings to the IRS for you to choose from for those that are looking to donate. I appreciate all the input and welcome all you to make suggestions together we can make a real difference and we will.

This will be the most informative site to educate all the generous people that like to try and make a difference and donate. As always please forward all information or your input to aboutworksoflife@gmail.com . For those that are looking to assist us we are looking For people interested in writing back pages and also looking for good quality back links. These are costly and we have been paying for them out of our pocket and will continue to do so but all that would love to assist are welcome to submit them.

Thank You
Tim White

I just want to say.. that i dont like seeing any of this blasted online for the world to see soo watchoutfool or since you cant post who you really are .. just think about whos lives this involves and who feelings are being hurt.. i was actually question about this blog.. which i had no clue about it till i googled looking for it. but whoever you are please do what god would want us to do.. please.

Tim White you are correct in all your comments. What people need to know is Justin Wallace is Camerons son. So greatful is Camerons daughter. Her real name is Ellisa J. Johnson from Lodi, Ca. This Thrusday when I have documented paperwork coming I am going to have a social media day with Cameron Arballo, AKA Vince Everett. I will list every person who works at Works of Life and the other 8 non-profit names. I will list a non-profit they run that uses a dead man as DIRECTOR! Look for me!

aboutworksoflife.com should be up in running real soon it will be full of information also including the pages where Cameron has retired and Vincent Everett is now the acting minister it will show proof they are both one in the Same. Site will also show all employees and photos of them all including the transporters assisting in there Scam including the ones in TX selling real estate. It will include many posts from deceived donors that are working to take other actions. The site will go into deep detail and expose how the organization runs and what happens to the items and those that are disposing of them. It will give you all the proper information to file complaints and seek restitution against those responsible for your Items.

Cameron Arballo is no longer anywhere on any Works of Life non-profits. Although he takes money from everyone of them. So when someone donates and think you are doing a good thing you are supporting Cameron Arballo and his children. This man uses a alias to keep from being found. He has a sucker named Tim Yarbrough who is the president in name only. I have spoke to Fresno PD, The FBI and the IRS. It is a matter of time before he is in JAIL. Do not give this crook any money. Donate to a real non-profit. Now sue me to shut me up. I have proof and will bury you in any court. So have that puppet you call an attorney get busy. McCormick, Barstow knows you have a AKA and is O.K. taking your case. There is no V. Everett. So being ordained V. Everett is fraud.Your post on Works of Life"Challenge to Change" should start with you being honest for once. Poor Tim Yarbrough will end up doing time in prison because you told him you cant get caught. Well you have and they are coming. The lowest you can get is using Don Smiths name still. I saw it on ONLINE CAR DONATIONS. That man passed about 4 years ago but it comes up he is still a director. You are ###!

V. Everett is a fake person. There is no such person. If you donate you are supporting Cameron Arballo. If you are O.K. with that go ahead. This man claims to be a pastor but puts Cameron Arballo no where on any paperwork. That is so the fools around him go to JAIL. Tim Yarbrough will be the first arrested because he is the president. His wife Avery and children can visit him in county. Arballo will go but Tim will be first.Tim does not reap any benefits. All monies are at Camerons disposal. Believe me there is alot. Tim told me Cameron has spent around $290, 000.00 since January 2014. That was in May 2014. He takes your donations and pays for his daughters divorce. He also sends her money constantly. Justin, his son gets money also frequently. According to Tim Yarbrough he sent them $105, 000.00 in 90 days. What is it using Don Smiths name on ONLINE CAR DONATIONS. Don passed several years ago. That is the lowest I have ever seen. GOOD JOB CAMERON!

Tim, the FBI in Fresno has received all your information. Thank You for all your help. It will take time but this guy will be in JAIL. The antique cars you speak of are at Gearheads Garage in Sacramento, CA. They are in his fake name V. Everett and some are probably D.O.Smith. These are 2 names he uses to push the cars back to him. No one has ever traced the actions. The DMV is now following the paper trail to follow where all cars have gone and to whom. V. Everett is an alias and D.O. Smith has passed so no one is looking for DMV transfers until now. Thank You for having the guts to expose CAMERON ARBALLO. His sons mother is receiving a letter on how Cameron deceived the courts on their case. Tim you do know Cameron draws California disability ins. He claims to be disabled. Another one of his scams, then has Tim Yarbrough pull $10, 000 to $20, 000 a week and bring it to him. I have informed the FPD, FBI and DMV to just follow the paper. I use to feel sorry for Tim Yarbrough but he is in deep now. I am sending his ex-wife a letter on how he deceived the courts about his actual earnings. So he could keep his child support down. She needs to check the 1099 he gave to the courts to the one he filed with the IRS. I have the license numbers to the 2013 Cadillac Escalade 6GDM781 and the new chevy truck 8589301 he just bought.I am having the names of current owners pulled as we communicate.Bet it not Cameron Arballo.

Tim, Gingers real name is Ashley Jackson.She is in Fresno, Ca. at 452 Bedford, 93711. The only person using their real name is Tim Yarbrough. His address is 2170 Hanson ave. in Clovis, CA 93612. Tim is in deep, all the money he cashes checks for are in the 100, 000s of thousands. He signs V. Everett daily. Everyone in that office signs V. Everett. I just found that out. I am going to court with them and I am going to subpoena V. Everett. When he can not show and provide I.D. Jericho will fall. I am told to not allow mediation so we can get this scam on record. When its done I will e-mail you for your records. We are saving good people from supporting a thief and all his croonies. Cameron looks good in a red jumpsuit if they can find one to fit. But then again he is comfortable there. This is not his first time dropping the soap!
