Entrepreneurs BEWARE! James Hooks is a crook! On December 8, 2009 James Hooks's company, HCW Capital aka Hooks Enterprises accepted $2000 for consulting services. They had a money back guarantee and they stated it took approx 90 days. After 100 days, I gave them a call because I haven't heard anything from anyone. I was promised by James Hooks himself that he would personally ensure that I receive my services which included a business plan, corporate website, corporate counseling, and up to $500k corporate funding.
6 months later, James Hooks was screening my calls, never returning calls, and never delivered on his promise. I finally requested my refund as per the money back guarantee. 3 days later, I receive a "press release" stating that another company took over and they attached a refund request form. I filled out the form and the paperwork stated the refunds will be issued no later than July 15, 2009. WELL, IT IS OCTOBER AND I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE ANYTHING!!!!!!
I PAID CASH VIA BANK WIRE TRANSFER ON DECEMBER 8, 2008. THERE'S NO CHARGE BACKS, NO EXCUSES, B/C HE WAS PAID IN FULL!! IT'S ALMOST A YEAR AND I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE SERVICES NOR A REFUND. At least with SM and the other victim, Hooks gave them a business plan, and they had contact info from actual loan companioes. I RECEIVED NOTHING EXCEPT A BUNCH OF EXCUSES AND PROMISES THAT WERE NEVER HONORED.
DO NOT USE HCW CAPITAL, HOOKS ENTERPRISES, JAMES HOOKS, OR ANY OF THEIR ASSOCIATES. I AM STILL TRYING TO CONTACT SOMEONE AND THEY ARE RUNNING!!!!
