They filed the following rebuttal to the above Rip-Off Report: Their email: [email protected] Their name: The Fraud Chick Their relationship to the company: Consumer Suggestion Rebuttal: You won't have to "swallow" one thin dime. That company has committed fraud and wouldn't dare sue you for the money. Of course, they could be so foolish they may try, but they won't win, Here's what you do: 1.Contact your credit card company and file a fraud complaint (deceptive practices) and demand a charge back immediately. Your credit card company most likely has a 6-month fraud window so you will need to hurry. 2.The "recorded" phone conversation is worthless to them unless they have you recorded from hello to goodbye. Cons have used the old "I've got your authorization recorded" bit for years. But the judge needs to hear what the fraudster said, the hook, line and sinker that got you to by into the scam-you know-the lie. The courts have caught on to these shady characters who tell you any lie they want to get you to buy and then say, "for quality control I have to have you talk to my supervisor" who then asks if you agree to the deal. Some really bright ones have their supervisor call you back so they have the whole conversation recorded, but too bad for them the sales pitch isn' t there, so it's no good either. 3.Contact your local IRS branch and ask for CID, report the scam. 4.Call the fraudsters and tell them you've reported them to the IRS. Good Luck The Fraud Chick
