I was duped by these scammers as well! I am embarrassed but apparently not alone. They used a local woman for a testimony who actually exist in the phone book. All kinds of good testimonial, GOOGLE backing, even MY good old Norton 360 says it's a "trusted sight".
I agreed to $2.97 for the "starter kit shipping cost" and Nothing more. They immediately hit my account for an additional $139.95.
NO fine print, NO disclaimer, NO "read and click I agree", Just click on rush my request and boom, I was scammed. I immediately sent an email and got the Auto reply email with the first line saying we will not cancel or refund via email.
I immediately called the number and got no response. Found 2 other numbers online and got no response and then got put on hold for 20 minutes. I then hear them open the line and disconnect it. 3 hours of non-stop calling and have yet to speak to anyone.
I look forward to the rude conversations everyone else has been experiencing...I want my "membership" canceled and my $139.95

In Rebuke of the employee/owner/company who is admonishing me for not providing my Full name.
First, this site specifically states NOT to sign your name... ("Specifically states", that's a business concept your company should adopt) Secondly, I have a "refund/cancellation claim ticket" number from your company (#359357) So you should already know my name.
Some advise; You should spent your time clearing out all the refund request instead of surfing the net for clients to admonish. You may have a great business opportunity to offer but no one is going to remain a client to find out because of your scamming ways.
You claim to have many clients in Mount Pleasant, SC....I challenge you to produce a single one you are in good standing with to come to this site and offer rebuttal on your behalf.... Oh yeah, be sure they include their full name so I can verify it.
I have made my number ( #359357) available so now you have my name. Please refund my money you fraudulently took from me.
Thank you - JB
