Musketeer Partners ripoff Las Vegas Nevada

Rip-off Report was the only site I found on the web that gave "real" information about Musketeer Partners. Wish I had found you before my friend lost money with them. So glad the Federal Trade Commission has taken action against them. Here's the latest FTC info that I have. World Traders Association and related parties, based in Burbank, Ca., allegedly operated under several different business names to sell a surplus goods work-at-home opportunity involving overstocked or discontinued merchandise. According to the FTC, the defendants told consumers that they would be supplied with pre-qualified clients existing customers that the defendants' representatives have called who have expressed a willingness to purchase
surplus goods.

The defendants' sales representatives promised consumers who buy the business venture that they would secure 200 customers and that they would be provided with a list of references to call. These references were portrayed as current, successful brokers who purchased the defendants' business opportunity and agreed to talk to prospective buyers. The FTC alleges that consumers made an initial payment ranging from $4,000 to $7,950, but failed to recoup their investment. When consumers complained or tried to warn others, the defendants allegedly threatened and even filed retaliatory lawsuits against some of them.
In addition to issuing a temporary restraining order, each court in the American Entertainment Distributors, Wealth Systems, and World Traders Association cases ordered that a temporary receiver take over the businesses.

The FTC received invaluable assistance in its cases from the USPIS, including its Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh offices, the Arizona Attorney General's Office, the California Attorney General's Office, the Florida Attorney General's Office, the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, and Better Business Bureaus and local police departments nationwide.
