Freedom Advertising - National Website Strategies Mad from Maine Tempe Internet Advertising took my "Freedom" from Trust Tempe Arizona
On February 2008 I received a phone call from "Freedom Advertising" a lucrative offer to make money via the internet thru a personal web page to sell presciption meds and pet meds to the public at a greatly reduced price. In return I would earn 25% of the sale. The market would be world wide and they would do the advertising for me. I would be mailed a monthly check.
I told them I was retired and on a fixed income and could not afford to invest any cash "up front". Then they asked if I had available credit from a credit card. I said I did not know how much I had. They requested my number. I gave them the Discover Card #. They accessed it and called me back and told me I could use that. By using $10,000 of my credit line I could purchase one of their best advertising packages. Discover would only be charging me about $300 the first month and then every month after that I would have a sizeable monthly income and would soon have it paid off.
Also, I could make provisions in my will to pass the business on. It would be a nice inheritance. They were unrelenting in their persuasion.
They faxed me papers to sign. I did not sign them right away. I signed tham after repeated calls from them. I did not fully understand what I was signing but trusted.
To date, I have not received any income. I have called "Jennifer" #602-454-9606.(a direct line to her desk). My last call was 4/30/08 @3:45pm EST relating my concern. She said she would set me up with a different pharmacy she liked better "Better Life Pharmacy". So far I have not been able to access it. Still no income. I have checked the internet.
Because my monthly interest charge from Discover was excessive, I transferred my balance to a home equity loan account which I continue to make monthly payments and am forced to do per diem nursing at an advancing age(69 yrs).
Dave Johnson was relentless in persuading me into the program. I was assigned to "Ivan" as an advertising coach but have not heard from him.
The "President" has a MySpace page...not too smart for him to admit he owns Freedom Advertising...maybe we can find out who this guy really is under another name:

I have filed this report with Discover Card Services, the Attorneys Generals of Arizona and Maine as well as the Federal Trade Commission. Don't be taken in by this deception.
As a final note, wonder why the amount is $9,880.00? Its a bank transaction under $10,000.00 and doesn't have to be reported to the Federal Reserve. Tricky, tricky people.

To all those who may have been scammed by the named company. From what I know Joe Kenyon was part of the scheme. As of 07/28/2009, I know where he has relocated and setup his new shop. I can be contacted and I can put you in his reach. Hope I can help and spread this information. TY!
