I was contacted by CK Sharma, the supposed CEO of CK International offering to do lead generation for my company located in the United States. He claimed that he was in San Diego (as indicated by his 858 area code) but had a call center in India that did lead generation, collections etc for several U.S. companies. He sent me web cam of his call center and also his website which looked legitimate. I wired him $1,250.00 to start (he wanted $2,500.00) to a a bank in India.

It was then I found out that he was actually in India, not San Diego California. He ran me around for three days saying that he was getting my account set up but once activated I will have 10 leads per day. After three days, he said he needed another three days.

Finally after six days he had my login ready and said that I could begin receiving leads. Of course, nothing happened again....and I was told they had a software problem and he assured me I would have 10 leads the next day. The next day came again and one again, NOTHING!! I left him a voice mail and email asking for a refund since he was unable to deliver.

It has now been one month and after several messages and emails, I have yet to hear back from him. It is now obvious that his intention was to steal from me. DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY TO THIS CROOK!!!!! I hope that by posting this, someone else will be spared and not scammed like I was.

CK IS A LIAR AND A THIEF!!!!

AUTHOR: Scott s. - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, March 17, 2009

Okay, it's now been five months since I initially paid this clown. First he says it was a misunderstanding and that he would get me my leads I paid for. Then I come to find out his true motive is for me to retract my statement I posted here. He then told me he would wire my refund and verbally confirmed that he had done so. Of course no wire has posted to my account so he flat out LIED!! It's not even the money anymore, just principle. CK, if you read this, I hope you lose your business and wind up eating out of a garbage can!!!! You are a sorry excuse for a business man. I just want to make sure that no one EVER uses his company because he is a scam. I gave him numerous opportunities to make it right (5 months should be sufficient) and he failed to do so. If this clown solicits your company, hang up the phone and don't believe his references either because that's the mistake I made.

YOU HIRED A TELEMARKETER AT ALL IS JUST PLAIN STUPID!!!!

AUTHOR: Laurie - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, January 30, 2009

Figure it out - The reason why we have a DO NOT CALL REGISTRY is because NO ONE WANTS CALLS FROM TELEMARKETERS!

We don't want to be bothered and we do not want to be ripped off.


Telemarketing needs to be banned. A lot of Id theft happens because of Scam telemarketers. the only way to stop it is to ban telemarketing of all kinds.

YOU DO NOT KNOW THE PERSON CALLING IS LEGITIMATE - NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH UNSOLICITED CALLERS.

Do your research or you have no one to blame but yourself

AUTHOR: D K - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, January 30, 2009

If you own a company and are going to risk your money, you need to be smart enough to do a little research. You NEVER wire money to anyone, especially someone in another country. If you do not do your research you have no one to blame but yourself for what happens.

Marketing Companies Deceptive Practices

AUTHOR: Aaron S - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, January 30, 2009

It's tough to digest, but a lot of marketing companies like to rip you off. The key to avoiding this is by doing small tests and learning about the fundamentals of marketing. No magic lead will ever solve your problems - generating a good system for funneling leads into your business is the #1 key to success. If you need to send out mailers, make phone calls, run print, radio or TV, google ads... whatever the right % of each channel, that is of paramount importance.

Updtae: Still a Scam!!

AUTHOR: Scott s. - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, January 29, 2009

I last posted an update on 12/17/2008 giving CK the opportunity to redeem himself. He said I would get my leads. Well, surprise....it's Jan 29th and NOTHING!! He did mention in our conversation that he wanted me to remove this report. Obviously that is all he wanted. Again I tried contacting him several times with no response. He had no intention on delivering so my opinion still stands. He is a complete SCAM.

Update for CK International

AUTHOR: Scott s. - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Wednesday, December 17, 2008

CK contacted me and apologized for being unavailable due to illness. He is currently offering me a refund or the leads. I am choosing to go with the leads as I am still interested in what his company can offer for lead generation.
