Max Horizon took my $42.00 and sent me nothing! Even though I should have known better I fell for their work at home scam. Las Vegas Nevada
I received a solicitation in the mail from Max Horizon, a supposed publishing company, to work at home stapling booklets. Even though I should have known better, their sales pitch sounded reasonable.
My mother is home sick with kidney failure and on dialysis 3 days a week. She is on a limited income and doesn't have the energy to work outside the home. I figured I would try this and if it worked, she could staple booklets and keep the payments. I enrolled and sent the $42.00 so she would not have to.
According to Patricia McCarthy, Human Resource Manager for Max Horizon, as soon as they "received" my registration, they will ship my materials right away. Needless to say I never heard from them again.
This was done in April, 2002. My check was cashed by Max Horizon through Bank of America, account # 004964826151. Another cancellation stamp on the back of the check has the address 1000 West Temple, Los Angelis, California.
I have requested a refund of my money and gotten no response. Don't let Max Horizon rip you off too.

I recently was a victim of the Max Horizons scam. I also found this interesting item on the web, regarding the FTC involvement with this comapny, also called Komaco. The FTC is aware of Max Horizons actions, and maybe they will put a stop to them.
Here is the website with the FTC's response:
