Cornerstone Equity contacted me throught a form I filled out on the internet. A representative called, we talked, but I decided this venture was not for me. However, the next day, one of the owners of the company called me, Dr Charles Dickens (that's no joke!) and we talked. After spending some time with Dr. Dickens, I was more interested. I did some research, and the company appreared to be on the up and up. I contracted with them, got a website for $295.95. of which I was to sell mortgage products.

Shortly after contracting with Cornerstone Equity, Jesse Cloutman, with Cornerstone Marketing Solutions contacted me with a proposal for a fast track marketing campaign for the website. Since I already owned 2 websites, and I know how slow the marketing process can be, I, unfortunately, took the bait.....to the tune of $8500.00!

As time progressed, nothing happened. From the back office, I could see I was getting all sorts of traffic, but no sales! Any good marketing company knows that conversion rate is EVERYTHING in marketing! However, when I began to question why I was getting so much traffic but no sales, Cornerstone Marketing and Cornerstone Equity began to avoid me like the plague! They screened my calls, would not return my messages by phone or email. Finally when I reached a representative from Cornerstone Equity, and demanded answers and explanations, she inadvertently blurted out that Cornerstone Equity was not a mortage company as they lead me to believe, but a "work at home" company instead! I knew then that I had been had!

I filed a dispute on my credit card. I lost the dispute. I appealed it. I lost the appeal as well. All this took almost one year!

I have retained an attorney and I intend to sue. I have compelling evidence that Cornerstone Equity is not a mortgage company as they represent themselves to be, and Cornerstone Marketing Solutions did not market my website as contracted.

If you are approached by this company, RUN!!! Run screaming from this organization!! Also, if you have already been frauded by this company and you paid with a credit card, dispute the charge, no matter now old the claim is!!! Disputes put black eyes on the company, and credit card companies avoid them and will not allow credit card priviliges. Also, file a complaint with the Arizona Corporation Commission, onlinebusinessbureau.com, the Arizona's Attorney General's office, your state's Attorney General's office, www.ic3.gov (an FBI internet crime complaint center).

Don't let Cornerstone Equity/Cornerstone Marketing Solutions get away with stealing your money!
