J.D. Marvel Products ripoff-cashed cheque didn't supply slippers-no replies phone or e-mail was returned consumer fraud ripoff deceptive company Hawkesbury Ontario

In April I responded to a mailing for slippers that are not available locally. I sent a cheque for $32:05 and waited. When no delivery was made by mid June I phoned the customer service number on the pamphlet but learned that it was not in service. I then tried the web site and secured an e-mail. The e-mail was returned as undeliverable. Later, I found "rip-off messages from other people.

I am astounded that a company like this can function. Are they not committing criminal offences? I thought that they must be safe as they have been functioning for a long time and have an active web site. I feel very stupid and violated.
