Total money lost $99
Type of a scam Employment
The ad for on-line employment, make money at home and an opportunity to learn new things about using the computer and internet got me. I was interested in making some income and as a disabled person would not be able to commute to an office away from home. The entrepreneur (?) who did the promoting is Rory Ricord. I find out after the fact and after I had released my credit card number and $99 that he is well known and into many enterprises. However I was getting suspicious when there were more and more come-on’s to make bigger money and the training for which I paid the 99 dollars was incredibly confusing and demanding and on videos which went too fast for me to comprehend. But I was determined to get it and went so far as to comply with getting another email address (which with my inabilities turned out to be a small disaster) and even considered the demand that I get PayPal..ostensibly to get my remunerations when I finally learned how to "Post online".
The posting turned out to be also marketing and ad building and the "Training" never got to the place where I saw what I actually had to do. The videos showed small takes on the templates I was going to be using and I listened to a lot of TALKING praising the outfit and its ability to make money.
At my daughter’s suggestion I went online next day to look for reviews of this business and found I was not the only one to have more than reservations. One woman had alerted her credit card company hoping to get her money back and writing to BBB, as I am doing now ,to alert other potential victims. She was convinced it was a scamming operation.
