C.A.C. - Clean Air Concepts Ripoff Work from home scam mail brochures get paid Yeah Right! Lemont Illinois
This company posted an ad saying you can work at home and make a good living. I am a mother of a toddler so this sounded great. They mailed me the application asking for a $28.00 supply fee and a fee of $6.00, $10.00, or $22.00 for shipping depending on the method.
The company has no phone number you can reach them at. When you call it says the line is being checked for trouble---All the time! They say they do not issue you a 1099 so you can recieve a tax break- what a load of crap!
They say you'll make $4.00 for every brochure you send, not true! You never recieve anything and you never get your money back. They also say you will recieve a full refund if you're not satisfied by simply sending back the starter kit. How can you send back something you never get? So you get no refund! This is a terrible scam and I wish there was something I could do about it.

While I do empathize with the victim's plight, it is exceedingly difficuly anyone can still, in this day and age, with all the negative reports easily accessible about these SCAMS, still fall for it.
Why on earth would any cpmpany pay a private individual $4.00/envelope when there automated stuffing systems that can do it for pennies ?
Kiss that 28 bucks goodbye and be thankful it wasn't a lot more...
