JC Consulting & Marketing Services Jennifer Coburn, JC Consulting services Telemarketing services Scam/Rip off, no work done, no refund given. Homestaead, Florida
I hired Jennifer Coburn, JC Consulting & Marketing on the 22nd October, 2010 for making cold calls to sell tech support subscriptions for home/small business based customers. I made a payment of $360 via PayPal to her and was assured 4-6 leads every week. Post that began a long series of postponing and delay in providing the guaranteed leads as assured in the agreement. First she stated that she suffered from laryngitis and had to hold off for a few days. Then she said that the approaching holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas and the New Year) are causing interested people to hold off till the New Year and she would resume work from the 4th of January. January onwards, she said that he mother had taken ill and she has been in NY to take care of her and will resume work soon. After sending her several emails, she replied on the 17th Feb-11 that she would like to start afresh from the 1-March-11 citing her family problems. She then went Mia again emailed on the 10th March-11 stating that was under the weather and will resume shortly. When emailed again on 23-March-11 she said that she had been emailing me and I might not be getting them. Tired of being given a run around, I asked for a refund, which is 50% of the amount as per the contract. She said that she will make it around the 15th of April. When emailed again on the 14th, she cited her mothers ill health as the reason for having to put refund on the hold. After that I sent her several emails to which she responded saying that she will honor the refund as and when she gets back. On 19-Apr-11 when I emailed her several times asking for the refund she said that her mother has expired and she needs time to grieve. After checking several online forums like complaintsboard.com, rippoffreport.com and scam.com, I have come to know that I am not the only one and she has duped plenty of other people like this. Her stories remain identically the same with everyone and she even had a story about her brother dying from cancer. I also contacted one of her previous customers who confirmed that Jennifer's mother 'died' previously as well when he was dealing with her. When I reported the matter to Guru.com, she chose to have her account suspended rather than issuing the refund. I wish to get the agreed refund and also bring to your notice her fraudulent business practices so that there are no more victims like myself. Its mid May now and I still haven't recieved my refund.

Jennifer Coburn is a sinful, evil person. She will be judged one day (hopefully soon) by God for all of her philandering, cheating ways. Thankfully, God will be the final judge of her reprehensible character and evil deeds. I'm sorry to hear you were her 1,0000th+ victim, hopefully more and more people will check her out online before falling for her extremely elementary and ill-witted schemes.

Btw, the "stories" of my brother dying from cancer is the truth and i'll show you the obituary you piece of garbage!!!
Within a year I lost my brother and mother both from different types of cancers. Is that so hard to believe???
My business isn't fraudulent and I'm no scam. Companies like you turn into cheap bastards when you don't get everything you want. I do my job and I do it very well and have been for many years. You live in India, the slum of the world. Your refund was only going to be $120 and you are complaining about that??
Like I said in my orginal rebuttal, i'm not issuing anything because you questioned both deaths and didn't let me grieve respectfully. Its rude to not only myself but my entire family. I wasn't able to grieve because I would get email after email from you, at least 4 or 5 a day asking for it. While at my mothers wake I got 2 and at the funeral I got 3. Seriously??? Over $120??
RUDE!!!!

Nathan,
I'm sorry but you are nothing but a scam artist and a liar. You questioned the death of my mother and continued to harass me while I was in NY during her funeral!!! Who does that???
I made a complaint aganist guru because of that. I terminated my guru account because I no longer need their services. This project went on for awhile. You went months without contacting me...months.
I took time off to be with my mother yes. Family comes first.
You are entitled to a refund and after you harassed me during my time of mourning, I decided not to and I still feel that way. That is rude and disrespectful. You should be ashamed of yourself. I did work for you, however the biggest problem I was having was that you are were in India. The country of fraud and scam artists. There are tons of scams coming from India. Not to mention that guru and elance and other companies refuse to take payment from anyone in India because you people steal credit card info and hack into people's computers.
You can complain all you want, but I did work for you, more than I should have. I'm not issuing a refund because of how you treated me during my mothers death. I dare you to take other action aganist me and you'll see what happens!!
