Chris Bernardo Took my money Sacremento California

I signed up with Christopher in Empower network and paid him to sponsor people for me to the tune of about 1500 dollars. He told me that he had a call centre that would be doing the recruiting for me. After signing up I stopped hearing from him and wasn't getting any indication of any activity on my site. I tried to contact him through skype and by phone and he refused to respond. So I got a hold of Empower to see if they could help me and discovered that he is no longer an active member of the company. Now I am going through the hassle of having to dispute the charges with my cc to try and get the charges reversed. Beware of this unethical scammer.
