The Zaken Co ripoff didn't live up to guarantee and things they agreed to false promises Granada Hills, California
They sent binder with all kinds of positive data which cost $148.00 which had a 2 year guarantee.
We also bought for $119.00 4000 names that are known to have sold off overstocked merchandice. No way
I tried to get hold of the company several times ,got no responce to tel calls, sent a copy of there guarantee with no response.
finally got a lawyer to look into it and he said looks like a scam.
I was only looking for my inital $148.00 back since 5/30/02

#2Consumer Suggestion
Fri, September 13, 2002
If you do not get a refund soon I would suggetest writing to the attorney general of California. I have provided the address below.
I would also contacting your local media such as a television consumer advocate program or you local newspaper. Also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission.
I have sent Zaken several letters requesting a refund because they never sold anything I found. I encourage anyone and everyone who has been taken by this company to write a formal complaint against Zaken and send it to both the attorney generals of California where they are now and New York City and the federal trade commission. I received a response from Attorney Generals office that was encouranging that they will contact Zaken and they will keep my complaint on file to use as evidence against them if they have to take legal action. I'm sure if they receive more complaints from people they will make this a priority. I encourage all of you to write to:
Bill Lockyer
Attorney General
State of California
Department of Justice
P.O.Box 944255
Sacramento, CA 94244-2550
For New York
You can file a complaint on the attorney generals of New York website.
Also write a letter the editor or advertising manager of any magazine you see their ads being run in. If you get those post cards for business opportunities in the mail write a letter them warning them about this company. Make sure to emphasize that now that they know about these crooks they have a responsibiltie to protect their own credibility and their readers from these crooks. It will take number of different people to get a response. I encourge all of you to write to these sources. If you want to get your refunds you need to get California to take legal action.
Good Luck
