I can't comment on this companies products (if they work and whatnot) but I can comment on their ploy to get your money by ways of implimenting employment with them. It starts like this, you get a call or email from someone offering work from home (I have since learned that most of those types of emails are scams). This seems like a very convenient and satifying oppertunity if you are a single mom with no job and fresh out of a school (which has left you in dept, BCTI rip off school) and need to start a new career. So you answer the email and get a call from someone.

My call came from Helen Bellmoore of Mount Vernon Washington (BEWARE OF THIS LADY, SHE SOUNDS SWEET BUT IS A LIER). She claimed to have this wonderful oppertunity for me that sounded to good to be true and I believed her (Stupid choice for me). But one of the catches was that I had to give her my debit card number for her to ship me some information on this so called great oppertunity. She was to be charging me 9.95 for the shipping of this information. I recieved the information, she recieved the 9.95. Everything seemed to pan out untill I took a look at this information she sent to me. I started thinking it was a scam when I looked at the pamplet provided and started listening to a CD provided and no where on either was any mention of what this was, what they sold, NOTHING, so I decided that if someone had to spend that much time on a pamplet or CD trying to convince you that what they are selling is good without even telling you what it is they are selling, this was not for me. I recieved a call from Mrs. and Mr. Bellmoore asking me to return their worthless CD and pamplet.

Well, to my surprise after I paid the shipping on this package, they did not send me a return slip to return it to them accordingly and I was not paying shipping twice just to learn about some company with a so called oppertunity so I closed the package up and wrote return to sender on it and stuck it in a FED EX drop box as that is who it was sent through. Next thing I know I go to my bank to find out that Mrs. Helen Bellmoore and husband withdrew 56.00 out of my account without authorization from me. When contacted they stated it was for the package that they never received. After a confirtation with my mother on the phone, Mrs. Bellmoore promised to send me this money back, HA AND NEVER DID. After numerous attemps to contact her, she emails me back with a comment such as, find the package and we will send your money.

So the package was supposedly never located and I ended up paying around 66.00 just to find out something was a scam. SO DON'T BELIEVE THESE PEOPLES EMPLOYMENT OPPERTUNITIES, MAKE SURE TO ASK WHAT THEY ARE TO SEE IF YOU ARE INTERESTED. Please don't make the same mistake as me and get ripped off. Sometimes you have to pay to learn a lesson, I guess that is what happened to me.
