Internet Business Scam alert

[Lebeau]

Guys, my wife and I got hit by a work-at-home scam. If anyone is considering this, stay away from the following companies:

SunRay Trading
SunRay Solution
United Solution
Direct Solution
Zorba's Marketing
United Solutions USA
A1A Marketing, Inc
Integrated Mailing

This is all the same scam under different names and these are only the ones I'm aware of! We only got hit for $124.99 but on my budget that's a lot of money. A bunch of other people have also been scammed as well. There's even a Yahoo group devoted to this.

I've already submitted complaints to the FTC and the FBI, I've notified my bank (who can't refund the money... the scam is that good), and tomorrow I will be talking to the Bank Manager and JAG to see what legal recourse I can take. There's already an army of pissed consumers building against them. I just wanted to make sure no one else gets hit before we do eventually get them.

Ack!

That sucks Lebeau. I'm really sorry to hear about it.

Thanks for posting about it here so everyone can be aware of it.

One of the main reasons scammers are successful is because their victims are often too ashamed to report what happened. I'm glad you aren't!

Well it is funny, the owners of the computer I'm using installed the yahoo toolbar thing. So lots of 'keywords' are highlighted in any text. Unsurprisingly, the work-at-home was underlined, so I could click straight to a link housing many of those scams(err sorry, I mean those fantastic work at home money making opportunities). Luckily I don't have a credit card heh. anyway that toolbar is lame, I get so many girls/credit/money/loan/scam type words underlined just begging for me to check out their exciting links and offers..
