I saw the advertisement from Speciality Merchandise Corporation that for $25.00 you could have a home business and make a lot of money. My husband of 56 years passed away 15 November 2007 and I could not sleep and they is why I saw the TV advertisment, 2:30 am. I paid the $25.00 for thier kit. By August 2008, I paid a total of $1766.89. Then Advanced Web Solutions called me and told me I needed a web page. I spent $339.95. Then Rain Makers Marketers called and told me they would send 10,000 customers to my web site, that cost me $1600.00. Then National Marketers called me and told me they would help, this cost me $400.00. EMC*eMwechantClub is part of SMC told me to make money, I had to use their services, this cost me $935.45. Then I was told I had to have business cards, that cost me $41.32. Then Business Recovery Services called me and said they could help me get my money back. That cost me $149.00. All I got was a nasty letter from SMC's lawyer and it stated that I needed to forget it or hire me a lawyer and go to court. I had just realized I had been took big time. Then Business Recovery Services called again and this time it cost me $400.00 to help me get my money back. It took me several days to get all the information together and complete the letters I had to mail to Better Business of Arizona and California. Also IRS, Attorney General's Office, US Postal Inspecion Office and Discover Credit Card. After all this, I read the cover letter from Business Recovery Services and it states they get 25% off the money you get back. I have spent nearly $6000.00 and not made a penny. I am 75 years old and owe all this to my Discover Credit Card. If there is any way you can help me or keep some others from being took by these people.
