Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I received today an unnecessarily long letter of invitation to become a circular distributor with "Magic Kids, Inc." It was signed by an "Isaac Mizrahi". The very first page of the letter states, in part:

" You pay me NOTHING, owe me NOTHING, UNLESS I make you money. Period!"

I spent the next 10 minutes or so scanning the letter. Well, wouldn't you know it.....on the last page they require a "good faith deposit of just $147 complete" in order to become a distributor. WAIT A MINUTE! They just LIED to me on the first page of their letter where they plainly state that I owe them NOTHING UNLESS they make me money. Put another way .......UNTIL they make me money, I owe them NOTHING.

On Page 14 .....another lie, and I quote:

"You end up paying $147 ONLY if you make TOP money! It not, you pay NOTHING!" What a load of crap!! They clearly require that I pay them $147 BEFORE I can earn even a penny from them.....if that's even possible!

Also, on Page 14, a contradiction: "I actually GUARANTEE your success, with my "no strings" pledge to return your entire $147 "good faith" deposit IF YOU FAIL to make money". How can I possibly FAIL to make money with a company that "actually guarantees" my success????? Duh!!!! And, I guess I'm to rest well on their worthless "pledge" to return my $147 if I don't make money??!!

I'm so sorry for those who lose money in these scams. Thus far, I've managed to escape being defrauded by these crooks because I'm very suspicious at the start. I'll read their junk just for a few laughs. Folks, don't jump too quickly when you receive these offers. THOROUGHLY investigate them first, and learn the clues to watch for that will bring their deception to light. These cons well know that millions of people are struggling financially and/or looking to work as self employed.... due to an absence of job security and too many low wage jobs in the U.S.A., of which our government & numerous employers are to blame ....and that's another sickening story....

Seriously Confusing???? This is a company that any one would be very tempted to try but I think investigation is the key! I've read tons of comment's, claims and rebuttals just this evening on several different sites(about Isaac Mizrahi and Magic Kids Inc.) And I have to say that nothing has been very helpful because there are just as many people that are strongly for the company as there are completely against it and hardly any neutrals to balance the extremes??? How does one know what to believe??? The only thing I can say that helped me personally decide not to look into them further is some one added a BBB link to their comment on Scam.com and I clicked and saw first hand for my self that Magic Kids got a F rating for their business practices And F is the worst rating a Biz can get If the business had at least gotten a B,C or maybe even a D I might have been more inclined to look Call me Cynical if you want, but I like many people can't even afford to lose 147.00 at this point Sad huh?? I hope this helps the people that are perhaps just as confused as I am about the letters they're receiving in the mail from this company..

I received the same letter, and it clearly states that they will hold your check or credit card for 30 days, giving you chance to make money before they take your deposit. If you haven't made enough to suit you, they don't charge anything. It also states that you can return the kit if after 60 days you haven't made $3,000.00 or more. I think it's pretty fair and straightforward. Most companies want your money up front without a chance to try their system.

I am curious as to how someone can post a ripoff report on a product that they have not purchased or tried to put to use? It seems to me that it's people like this that is the whole reason the $147 'good faith' deposit is required in the first place. No company can afford to send out free materials to everyone that requests them when so many people are not willing to put any effort into attempting to grow their own business. There isn't a business out there that can guarantee your success unconditionally because so much of it depends on the individual and how much they are willing to put into it and commit to growing their own investment. It's sad, but the reason so many companies are able to take advantage of people is due to the fact that there are so many individuals out there that are chasing the pipe dream that they can make millions by doing nothing more than buying a report, book, course, or software, etc. that is going to do all the work for them and they will reap the rewards. Since that's what people want, that's what the illegitimate places play on. Once everyone realizes that this is not reality, and that you should actually put in some effort on your own part to become successful at anything you do, then there will be far less people being ripped off. I mean seriously wouldn't you be more satisfied knowing you worked hard to make something of yourself rather than making a few measly bucks off of someone else's efforts anyway? Personally I have no problems with being offered the opportunity to try something completely free for 30 days and having the ability to actually be able to put in my effort, implement and review the opportunity before I have to invest the very reasonable 'good faith' fee to cover the expense of my marketing material and instruction. In short my suggestions are 1) Don't take it upon yourself to assume that something is a ripoff without even trying it or giving it a fair shot. That's just unfair to the company. 2) We all need to stop expecting something for nothing and just do our best to find a legitimate opportunity that we click with and work as hard as we can at it to be successful! Just my opinion of course. Best of Luck in everything you strive to achieve!

I am a circular distributor of Magic Kids as well as a customer. If you should have any doubts, please feel free to visit their website www.magickidsusa.com. The letter also stated that you would be give one full month AFTER you receive your kit before you are charged and they also ask you to post-date your money order or check. I have just started and have made $2,143.52 in less than a week. They still have three weeks before they charge my account and I'm already ahead. This company is legitimate and very helpful through phone support should you need help in anything. The cost is a fair price considering all of the materials you receive including: many color company catalogs, a brand new outfit, instructions and lots of advice. No one can win the lottery without buying a ticket.

Let's see Melinda. You have filed a rip off report, yet you admit the company did not rip you off. Personally, I think that's slander. You are what is called a cynic, and like all cynics you know the cost of everything and the value of nothing. Had you actually checked out MAGIC KIDS, INC, you would have discovered they are a quality company and a great opportunity. I paid the $147 and made $2200 in the next 10 days. You are the kind of person that always tells your friends their ideas won't work. People, never take business advice from somebody unless they are more successful than you are.
