wow it looks like you all really gave them a shot. Good for you guys. I know when i get a call from a company thats trying to help me "its got to be to good to be true" get off your a**es and find a job! Stop bitching about how you were looking for help online, and god forbid they fallow up with you. I'll be willing to say almost every one on this forum is collection disability, unemployment, social security, ect. always the victim on these blogs. . . . Well keep complaining and feeling sorry for your self. All of the successful people got there that way.
I sign up 7 days ago and everything that was promised to me by all three people I spoke to now change to a different story. I am trying to stop all transaction.
I got a call from this number. A man clammed that they were also trying to see if i was qualified for a training course in starting an online business. Stating that i would have a personal adviser take me through the steps of there training program. I thought the company was members of EbizShortCuts which is an online program that i signed up for that shows you how to market online, start an online business, or profit from blogging. I was transferred to speak with JACKSON. Jackson spent an hour trying to make me feel like this was a one time offer and that if i don't sign up with them now i will loose out. He referenced to a company called 'Focus' where they said they were backed by the BBB. unfortunately i fell victim to there scam! they sent me a contract and i read through it before agreeing, i was relieved because it said i would have 3 days to cancel after i sign. Right after I hung up the phone i found sights just like this! i also looked up the business name they have on there contract 'VENTURE INTERNATIONAL' when you look this name up you will come across a company based out of Hudsonville, MI. Where as on there contract there company address is 1780 WEST 9000 SOUTH STE 253, WEST JORDAN, UT 84088. If you search Venture International Utah you will come across this sight, which shows they are not backed by the BBB.
I have no idea how they got my number. the only explination i have is that they are connected with "home cash flow solutions" which i found through 'Your Internet Profits'. I went to the bank the next morning and put in a claim against the transaction. Thank God i got back my money, but trust me it could have turned out much worse if i did not find this website early!
HEADS UP!!! I am familiar with the company focuslc.com (MENTIONED in the comment from "Clay Taylor and Dustin Ridge24 Nov 2009" on this post. I haven't received a call from the phone number in discussion, but focuslc.com will charge you thousands of dollars for training and coaching, setting you up with a drop shipping warehouse (Ignite) containing only 50,000 products, teach you how to build a website and provide hosting. Don't get sucked in, many better and cheaper options are available. My husband has a friend who just spent about $6000 for this "wonderful" opportunity package; as he thought it would be. The coaching is helpful and sincere however Doba, a much larger drop shipper (actually the parent company of the drop shipper Ignite that focuslc gets you signed up with), offers 1.5 million items, website building and hosting with automated product ordering, and training for about $600.00 a for a year with their promotional discounts they offer when you sign up for a FREE 7 day trial. THE BIG PROBLEM IS THIS: Doba, just like the ignite ware house item prices are discounted so little, often higher than what you find other people on the web charging for the exact items. But my husbands friend was told he would have EVERYTHING he needed with the Ignite warehouse to make well over $100,000 a year. Recently the coach admitted that finding a different drop shipper will be necessary to find necessary profit margins. OUTRIGHT LIARS
