International Profit Associates Scam In Oregon Buffalo Grove Illinois

I got a call from an appointment setter and it sounded easy enough. They were just gonna send someone out to drop off some information. The next day someone showed up and didn't just drop off information. This guy was nice and not too pushy but wasn't there to just drop off info. He set up another appointment for the next day for an analyst to come to our office and start going through our books. I thought for $350 maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea.

Then I found other business people who had dealings with them here. I am very pleased I found Ripoff Report. Reading most of the posts here I saw the same patterns they did to me that they have done all over the US.

I tried to cancel the appointment for the analyst to come out but they have too many layers in their company to actually get to the person that set the appointment. Naturally the guy didn't get the message that the appointment was canceled and showed up anyway.

This has been said but I don't think it can be said enough. Don't let these guys in to your office. If you get a call from IPA or any of their other business names just hang up.

THEY SCAMED US TOO AND ARE NOW THREATENING US IN A LAWSUIT

These people take advantage of people who are already vulnerable. They scamed us for about $15000.00 and are now taking legal action against us because we stopped payment of the rest of the checks. They cashed post dated check when they were not supposed to and really put us in a bind.

They need to be stopped before others fall into their trap as well. If anyone knows of any other web sites with law suits, please let me know, or if you want to band together and stop these guys let us know. Thanks

In case you have not already, file a report with your state Attorney General and with the Better Business Bureau. Regardless of whether this encounter cost you money, it is critical to log the complaint and worn others. Reality is, that it is your civic duty.



Yes, there is a RICO lawsuit against IPA as well as a huge Sexual Harassment lawsuit pending, but in the meantime, it is critical to stop the damage in your area as well as throughout the U.S. The only way that can happen is by filing the appropriate complaints and encouraging your local and state papers to publish your story.



Best wishes to you.
