N.H.E.S. home based business ripoff deceptive advertising Smithshire Illinois
On July 12, 1992 I submitted a postal application to NHES with the understanding that I would receive a packet of info. with home based business that I could contact regarding home employment. I did receive that packet of info. from NHES, which included a 100% money back guarantee.
On September 11, 2002 I wrote to several of the company that were contained in the packet of info. that I received regarding home employment. I never heard word from any of them.
On August 7, 2002 I wrote NHES again to indicate that I had not had any home-based employment offers from any of the companies that I wrote to and had requested that they refund my $29.95 processing fee. To date I have not received my refund or any response for that matter.
I've kept copies of everything and can get a copy of my cancelled check if need be. I would just like to get my $29.95 back and would like that company put out of business for deceptive advertising.

#2Consumer Suggestion
Wed, October 08, 2003
This company has a long history of cheating consumers. You can view other complaints on this site for some helpful advice. What follows is a recent copy of a consumer suggestion on this issue:
"National Home Employment Services--Corp. Principal/Owner is: MR. CHRIS SOURS Mr. Sours phone: 309-426-2748.
I have not tried this number, but it belongs to him. This company is in an industry that may require licensing, bonding or registration. This firm may require a specific license by "the Private Employment Section of the Illinois Department of Labor.
You can check this with the appropriate agency, to build your case. This agency is: Illinois Department of Labor: 312-793-1817.
Mr. Sour's alias working names include: American Home Worker's Association, DataPC, Inc. Global Information Systems, Inc. Jobcor, N.H.E.S., NHES. Just wanted to mention those, in case a victim from those divisions are researching.
Here is an additional address: 380 South Main Street, Roseville, IL, 61473 or 577 40th Ave., Roseville, IL, 61473 for alleged places of business MR. CHRIS SOURS received a final judgement (March 4, 2002), entered in the case of Illinois vs Sours, et al.
The final judgement decrees that the Sour's are pernamnently enjoined from engaging in the business of advertising for sale, offering for sale, and selling job referal services, or otherwise operating a job referral service or job listing in the State of Illinois.
The Sour's have been ordered to pay $15,802.51 in restitution to consumers and $20, 000.00 as a contribution to the Attorney General Court Ordered and Voluntary Compliance Payment Projects Fund for Consumer Enforcment and Education.
All of this according to BBB of Central Illinois: www.peoria.bbb.org. You can read this information for free, although they don't necessarily give all detail. You may be entitled to a refund. You probably do not want to take long, "Statute of Limitations" is unknown and varies from state to state. Hope this can be of some help. :)"
