Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I almost got scammed! I received information regarding the above mentioned company. Sounded like it was something I could do as I am handicapped and cannot work a full time job.

I got a money order and was going to send it to the company and then something told me to check them out.

Thank goodness I did. I can put the $55.00 to better use.

Thank you again!!!

EDitor's Comment ..JUST AS IMPORTANT TO POST ON RIP-OFF REPORT, ATTORNEY GENERAL & MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE BBB

#20

Listing your complaint on many Government links sometimes are no better than the BBB and are most likely just a waste of time, giving you false hope. Many government sites (like the BBB) just collect all information from you, the consumer, but never make that information available for all to see, so consumers will NOT be educated as to what exactly they should be looking out for. By these agencies not letting you see these complaints, making them public, you never know how bad the company or individual rip -off really is.

On the other hand, many government agencies have and do come to the Rip-off Report for information. We have been assisting many government agencies for some time now, including the FBI and Attorney General offices from around the country..

Now that all these Rip-off Reports are out in the open for everyone to see, in a way, this embarrasses these agencies into doing something when they see so many reports on a Company or Individual, because they are now out in the open for all to see. Unfortunately, many (not all) Attorney General Office's and government agencies will not move against a rip-off unless you are well connected, or there is going to be some sort of publicity on the rip-off. By reporting your experience on the Rip-off Report, is the next best thing to getting your story on TV or in a newspaper. Most national TV networks and many local TV stations from all around the country also come to the Rip-off Report for information they will not get from the BBB, Attorney General office's or any other government agency.

Rip-off Report has instigated many local and national stories, resulting in help for victims' world wide, in one way or another. Most government agencies will never even bother with rip-offs unless it involves $50,000 or more. Now that government is cutting back even more dollars for these types of programs, this number will even get higher and we can expect even less to get done, by even less people to work on all these rip-offs.

Additionally, by filing a Rip-off Report, you might be contacted by us notifying you to contact a law firm that has shown interested in your case. We get requests now every week; bringing victims together with lawyers willing to sue the company they field a Rip-off Report on.

CLASS ACTION

Those interested in joining a class action lawsuit should first file a detailed Rip-off Report; using your contact information, Rip-off Report Consumer Advocates will contact you once there are attorneys interested in working on your case or if a class action lawsuit against this company would be filed.

STOP! ..before you think about using the Better Business Bureau (BBB)... CLICK HERE to see how other consumers were victimized by the BBB's false or misleading information. Don't be fooled! It has been reported, when there are thousands of complaints and other investigations underway by authorities, the BBB has no choice but to finally give an UNsatisfactory rating to a BBB member business that is paying the BBB big membership fees every year. When a business is reported that is NOT a BBB member, BBB files WILL more likely show an UNsatisfactory rating, then reportedly shake down that company to become a member of the BBB. One positive thing about the BBB is, either way, if a business has an unsatisfactory rating with the BBB, yo

YOU MUST REPORT THIS FRAUD TO POSTAL INSPECTORS FOR INVESTIGATION BEFORE THEY CAN BE SHUT DOWN

I am a rip off victim by Summit Group Publications in a similar way to 33 other reports on www.ripoffreport.com. It is not enough to report here. The headquarters of US postal inspectors does have this company on file for complaints but they are still operating because "we need more people like you to fill out a form" before we can investigate and shut them down. It seems most victims have not gone this far.

You can file an online complaint at www.usps.com/postalinspectors/
using form ps48165-mailfraud-file a complaint-submit. OR call 1-800-372-8347 from 8AM-6.30 CST to lodge the complaint and give your address for a mail fraud complaint form to be mailed to you.

You can also file a complaint in the area code 626 BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU. This scam company uses a voice mail (Arab, Indian or Pakistani accent) at the ph # 626-259-0175. There is no owner listed with the local phone company for this number. For these reasons I have filed a complaint with the FBI-WEST COVINA (pH# 626-919-3434) to check out any connections to terrorist operations.

The name SAT CHADHA is associated-see report dated 110902 listing a physical mailing address in Walnut, CA. Other reports of this company list operations out of ELK GROVE CA, OAKLAND CA, & RHODE ISLAND., but it is possible they are sharing a victims mailing list with the same company under a different name or other companies fraudulently suspected called C&G ENTERPRISES, I&M ENTERPRISES & SOURCELINK.
