Mobileworkforce 101 - Michael Barrington = Peter Michael Promises of being a certified laptop distribution agent, $279.00 later they deliver.....nothing. Woodland Hills California

This is crazy, I have read about a dozen negative reports on these guys and they all say the same thing. I am reading each sentence knowing what was going to be said next; knowing because it happened to me. I responded to an ad in Entrepreneur Magazine, it was a small ad, but was intriguing enough to respond too. I e-mailed the company with my contact information and expected a response from a happy salesman, but after a week, nothing so I called them.

I talked with Michael Barrington on the phone and he sounded drunk. I dismissed it at the time, but I wish now I hadn't. Every report I have read about this company is exactly what happened to me. I sent the man my $279.00 dollars expecting my internet sales to be soaring in 2 to 3 weeks. I asked repeatedly about the 120 day financing program which struck me as odd at the time, again ignoring my gut I pressed forward. About 4 months of these ridicules training modules waiting for my certification I was sent an e-mail asking for just under 4K for a batch of laptops. I wrote back telling them I needed to participate in the 120day financing program. About 2 months later I received and e-mail asking for $997 for another batch of laptops. This time I bit, I sent them my money in May. Around June 1st after I was being harassed by all my friends and family that I took pre-orders for I sent an e-mail asking for an ETA on the shipment. Peter Michael responded June 18th, sorry for the delay. Well no problem I though, a few more weeks. Everyone could wait including my beautiful daughter whom I had PROMISSED a laptop for on her birthday May 21st. She was OK with it and still more preorders, only now I that bad feeling in my gut I had been ignoring is now turned to a sort of sickness keeping me awake nights.

Well I wrote a few e-mails, made a few threats, and then jumped back on the computer searching Google about these guys who have not been writing me back. Oh my goodness the crap that came back. Holy cow they seemed to get us all at once. So here I sit looking like an idiot afraid to tell my wife that this shipment of laptops is not coming. I finally did and refunded all the money I had taken in deposit for the promised out systems apologizing to everyone. Here's your money back buddy, I got ripped off. Most where sympathetic, but all where pissed they were not going to get this great deal!

The crazy ting is I did the standard internet business sweep, but I came up empty handed. Almost 7 months later you can misspell the company name, do a Google search, and still get a thousand hits. Mail fraud is illegal in this country folks and if those people associated with this company are reading this, I will get the satisfaction of watch you go to jail. Everyone you ripped off will get the satisfaction of watching you go to jail.

Good luck to all involved
