Complaint Review: Universal Business Strategies

On December 2002 to January 2003, I was set up to buy five 900 lines for both US and Canada. They set me up with websitesand 900 numbers for these lines; totaling $7154.00 on my credit cards. I was told these lines and websites were covered for the year. About three months later my lines were cut off and my websites were down. All the contact numbers I had with UBS were disconnected and I could not get anyone. I gave them a couple weeks, and still no answer. Up to now I haven't heard from them.

I have also lost money in Addvertising of the websites and lines, there are also interest rate fees on my credit cards, etc. Not to mention the bad credit report I am now left with.

I heard UBS went bankrupt, but what I have read on some of the victims reports; makes me realise that these people (Don Lapre and others) need to be arrested. It seems that all they want to do is ruin other peoples lives in one state and then move to the next and they seems to change their names a lot. I have not recovered any of my money back and I sincerly hope the BBB do something about these criminals and recover stolen funds.

If there is anything I can do please let me know. They have completely ruin my life. Something that I have to live with for about 10 years before I can be able to recover from all these debts and bad credit reports. I am a 22 year old full time student, who also works full time and it has been very rought for me.

I would not like this to happen to anyone out there; we really need to do something about these people and stop them in their tracks.

please don't hesitate to contact me.

I filled a complaint to the State Attorney office in Phoenix Arizona(Terry Goddard) in October of 2003. It doesn't seems like they want to give out any information. I hope they take this as a serious matter for all consumers
