Review 1/4/2009
I received a letter and check from this company in early December 2008. The letter stated that my resume had been chosen (which I didn't recall submitting a resume) and all I had to do was cash the check, wire money to the company, rate the services of the wire transferring services in my local Walmart, and I would retain the extra $200. I was skeptical, so I called the company - after speaking with the phone operator, I felt that this would be a great opportunity. With my husband just losing his job and my being on docked pay due to maternity leave, this seemed like a great way to make extra money. Everything went fairly well, I deposited the check in my account, cashed it out, and completed the transaction. Afterwards, I alerted the company and they said they would send me more assignments. I was ecstatic with the results and felt that this would be great work to do from home until I checked my bank account a few days later. The check in the amount of $2,875 was RETURNED!!! The little money that I had left in my account (my docked pay that I had just received) was untouchable because of the huge amount returned and now my account was over $2,000 overdrawn. With a new baby, two other kids, bills, and an almost bare refrigerator, you can imagine how mortified I was.

Needless to say this all went down about 2 weeks ago - since then I have been trying to contact the company and have been given the run around. The manager, who is the only one that can resolve this issue, is never there. I will be contacting them again this Monday and if the issue is not resolved then, I am filing a fraud/loss case with my bank and will also seek legal counseling - hopefully I will get my money this way. This company is a predator and preys on the financially weak (which is myself at this point) - DO NOT, I MEAN ABSOLUTELY DO NOT, DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. IF THEY SEND YOU A LETTER WITH A CHECK IN IT - THROW IT AWAY!!!! I wish I had known, then I wouldn't be in this situation.
