Received an offer from The Zaken Company to work at home finding merchandise from manufacturers which they would like to dispose of.

Had to purchase a "workbook" for $164. Also stationery for $169 and postcards for $70.

After 3 weeks I had found several business that were interested and the information was sent to the Sales Manager, Nick Lasorsa, who was supposed to process them.

Then Mr. Zaken said I would need to purchase a "directory" of companies to help me find merchandise. This would cost $498. I mailed a check for this on 10-21. On 10-22 I received an e-mail from Mr. Lasorsa that he had discovered it was a big scam and the Zaken makes his money from selling this material. I stopped payment on the check on 10-23.

I have been unable to contact Mr. Zaken at all and have only received more glowing reports of how much money I can make. I have contacted several other people who answered his ad and not one of them has received a dime. Also he has suddenly moved from the original address to the one at the top of my complaint.

Mr. Lasorsa says he has filed a class action suit for us, but we will probably not receive any of our money.

I would appreciate it if you would report this matter.
