I called an ad in Entrepeneur magazine touting this great home based business opportunity. Their salesman Mike proceeded to push the hard sale on me and tell me how much money some of their people were making. He conned me into purchasing the 4 website deal.

I found out later that all of these websites are just affiliate sites from other companies, so they are free to them. Then the sister company Intervestments ripped me off for $1700 for traffic, 10,000 visitors to my sites that produced $200 in income. The traffic was supposed to be divided between all 4 sites but they sent it to one.

I contacted the company and made every effort to resolve the problems I was unhappy with. They weren't interested in correcting the problem. I filed a complaint with the BBB and California Consumer Protection Agency but still no resolution. This company is full of thieves. They stole my hard earned money.

Problem Solved

Despite the fact that Big Hitters can not be held responsible for an advertising campaigns results, good or bad, we still provided Mr. Clayton the writer of this thread with 500 prepaid access cards worth $10,000.00 on 10/1/05 which made him more than happy.

#2 Consumer Suggestion

And, if you believe that, I've got a lunar gold mine I'd like to sell you. Can you get a ride up there from nasa to collect the gold?

AUTHOR: Paul - Anaheim (U.S.A.)

These companies, big hitters and saturn communications have been running this same web site con for years now. Naturally, they don't bother to actually run any of the phony web sites themselves, even though they claim there is big money in doing that.

Nope. They don't bother with the web sites.

Instead, they hustle off these phony sites to suckers for thousands of dollars each. I guess that's where the real money is located.

And, if you actually believe that they gave this victim $10,000 in real value, then I have some gold bricks I'd like to sell you. Just give me another hour or so until the paint dries.

Then they'll be all ready for you!

Do you want to solve your problem? Then stay away from these frauds in the first place. Trust me, they are the only ones who ever make any money with this web site nonsense.

made numerous attempts

AUTHOR: Steve - Ocean Springs (U.S.A.)

SUBMITTED: Tuesday, October 04, 2005

I made numerous attempts to get Leon to return the money to my credit card but he refused to refund anything. He offered the prepaid cards as the only solution he would offer and I took them but that is not the resolution I want. I want my money refunded to my credit card Leon and then I'll be a happy customer. I guess maybe the lawsuit will be the way to go so we can see what a judge has to say about your companies business practices.

#4 Consumer Suggestion

Better make those lawsuits happen quick. Once a complaint ends up here, a business can easily lose 50% of its income.

AUTHOR: Paul - Anaheim (U.S.A.)

SUBMITTED: Tuesday, October 04, 2005

Especially an internet-based business like this company.

What's the first thing a prospective customer will do before he contacts the company?

That's right, he'll search google. And, guess what he'll see?

Right again! Several ripoffreports.

One final question. What will happen to all that “big hitter” income?

You got it. Right down the toilet, along with the rest of their phony web sites.

So, if I were you, I get that lawsuit up and running pronto, before the fraud runs out of rent and ad money and has to close up shop.

#7 Consumer Suggestion

The sites will stay up as long as there are victims looking to get rich on the internet

AUTHOR: Paul - Anaheim (U.S.A.)

SUBMITTED: Monday, October 24, 2005

As long as there are people who think they can get rich on the internet and people who actually think this “big-hitter” fraud is going to help them, the site will stay up.

You need to understand that nobody who has a golden goose is going to share it with you.

If you want to build an internet business, you will need to do all the work for yourself.

Wasn't looking to get rich just make a decent living

AUTHOR: Steve - Ocean Springs (U.S.A.)

SUBMITTED: Wednesday, October 26, 2005

If I had known how to do all the stuff to build a web based business you can guarantee I'd never have fallen for their junk. I hope this report and the pending lawsuit will at least save a couple of people some money in the future. Do you know how to build a good business?

#9 Consumer Suggestion

Do I know how to build a business? Of course! The directions are in every public library.

AUTHOR: Paul - Anaheim (U.S.A.)

SUBMITTED: Thursday, October 27, 2005

Every public library has several books about starting a small or home business. You can even find books that explain how to make an e-commerce web site.

All you have to do is check them out and read them.

Of course, I'm the only one who does that. Everybody else goes looking for someone to figure out everything for them.

Here's my money. Now, make me an internet millionaire.

Or, here's my money. Now make me rich.

Obviously, that kind of behavior is only going to attract a fraud who will turn around and rip you off.

When in doubt, read the directions. No matter what you want to do, somebody has written a book that tells you how. All you have to do is look.
