HBG Publications ripoff Diamond Bar California
I am a single mother of six children. One is a new born. I have been searching for a way to make money from home so that I raise my kids and take care of my severly asthmatic son.
I saw an ad in the employment guide stating that I could earn $700..$1,400..$2,800 every week guaranteed by stuffing envelopes. I thought this was a legit opportunity since the information was given in the employment guide. I called the company and was sent a brochure to be scammed.
They stated in their brochure that everything was guarantee, and that they were looking for honest and reliable people and I believed it. They even stated that I would recieve everything in writing. I thought that I could not go wrong if it was in writing -yeah right!
I sent the required $40.00 for my start-up kit. I did not mind because I was to be refunded the $40.00 with the first 100 evelopes that I mailed back to them.
After waiting for weeks, I never received the evelopes and my $40.00 that could have been used for my children is gone. I feel used and am still looking for a way that I can make money from home with a company that is not trying to rip you off.

I too found this advertisement regarding HGB Publications and thought what a way to make money. I was goingt o go amd get a money order for the 40.00 and mail it in, but then I thought that I better look on the internet and read up it before sending. Thank god I did.I live day to day getting only what I need in life and the 40.00 dollers i was going to send was the last of my money. I feel sorry for the woman who got ripped off and can only hope others follow up before sending these people money. It is a shame these people get away with this stuff, one day it will catch up to them. I thank the lady who wrote the letter without it I would of sent the money.
