Pacific West Marketing Ed Shriber Fortunately we averted the scam but I feel obligated to report this so as to possibly save someone else San Juan Capistrano California

I typically won't take the time to report stuff like this - and normally just move forward and forget it. But after having serious questions about doing business with him and reading the other four complaints posted here, I realized how important it is to get the word out. This guy is a total scammer.  He preys on startup businesses that he finds in the media, and has a big pitch about getting them huge amounts of business... he's definitely a great talker.  But the reaility is that he sells little or nothing, and charges people and up-front fee, which is all he is really interested in.  Based on my experience and that of others posting here, my guess is that he ropes in at least several people a month for a couple thousand dollars each and makes himself a nice little income - at the expense of trusting people.

My advice: don't answer or return his calls.
