Complaint Review: Paramount Marketing Group OnlineLLC

On 7/30/08 I received a phone call at my home regarding an internet business opportunity. They would do all the advertising for me and make the products of a large number of stores, such as Sears, Walmart, and many other big companies available to anyone buying on the Internet available on one site. I would then get a percentage of what the consumer buys as a commission.

I was promised 35,000 qualified shoppers distributed over a 12 month period. The cost would be $6000 which could be put on one or two credit cards. I would have access to the list of visitors each month, stating what they had bought, commission, originating internet site, and other info. A promised statement for 35,000 customers was never sent to me.

I was sent papers to sign and return to legalize the transactions.

I checked the site every month. During the first two months, no visitors, they told me it takes time to set it all up. The third month were 7 visitors, then 24 and 18. Thereafter it was always 49 visitors. None had any sales.

I checked out several of the visitors' Internet sites--they were invalid numbers.

At 35,000 promised visitors I should have had an average of 2900 visitors, with lots of sales. But instead I got nothing for $6000 plus credit card interest. I intend to see if the credit card co. can help recover my investment.
