Seems Too Good To Be True

Everyone is tempted by the fantasy of doing a mindless job from the convenience of your home and making enough money at it to pay the bills. Especially now, when lots of us are out there looking for a job that would pay that much, even for backbreaking work. It is very cruel of the recipients of the incoming funds at Castlebridge Publishing to prey on so many desperate people in these challenging times.

I just got my brochure in the mail today. I bought the dream for a few seconds, then got on line and found this page. Coincidentally, it was just after I got through talking to a specialist in security and investigative services. This was an interesting woman who was a US Marshall and has a website; www.NoStoneUnturned.com.

I am sure there are other investigative services that may be able to find out exactly who is behind the scam. I am pretty sure that it will not be as easy as looking up Lowell and Diane Williams by name on the internet. These people must be found and there is a right way of going about doing this. I think that the people at No Stone Unturned might be able to help.

I have come to learn to pay very close attention to coincidences. I would love to see the scammers caught and money returned to the victims. I did not happen to fall for their scam, however, I resent the fact that they have my mailing address. I am sure that I will receive more mail like this from other scammers. I may now be considered a "mark." I have become suspicious of everyone that I give my snail mail or e-mail addresses to (including this site.)

So, what does the badbusinessbureau do about this? Would they be helpful and set up a way where everyone with the same problem with this company can act together to fight back? If they will not do this, then I will.

I will provide an e-mail address for everyone who had a problem with this to respond to. It is an address that I hardly use and I rarely get any mail at. I will keep you all posted as to how many are on the list and how much the cost of services will be.

Only AFTER enough people respond so that the cost of hiring a professional investigator comes to under a dollar a person, I will ask everyone for a dollar and hire Ruby Handler to do this.

Please send your e-mail to bohemianstyle_2001@yahoo.com. I will save your addresses and respond to everyone via bulk e-mailing from that same address.

I got the flyer today, I met Ruby today, I found this site today. I got this idea right now. I think that this might work.

I will be very honest with you. If, the price gets to be less than one dollar per person to hire her, I will keep the change. If it goes below fifty cents, the balance will be donated to a charity to assist desperate out of work people who have been scammed. I will find one, and if not I will create one.

Let's just get those people first.

Fidelia,

Report them to the U.S, Postal Inspectors, go to http://www.usps.com/postalinspectors/ and file an online complaint form. The post office will put a cover on the deliveries and block future income. It sounds like a typical work at home scam. The best way to harm a scammer is to ruin his good thing and block his money.

I wish you had given more details like:

How did you find out about them?
How did you pay them?
What did they promise you?

I cant help you with anything else unless I know the answers to the questions above.

Good Luck
