I am a 67yr old widow on disability. I wanted to make money to help buy my medicines. I am on 16 prescription medicines a day.

On their TV ads they gave the impresion that this was a job that could be done at home on your computer.

I paid the $300.00 plus up front so I could get started faster. When I learned that this required going to flea markets or renting booths at affairs I called SMC told them that I was not able to get to these places .

I called smc and told the woman that answered the phone what my problem was and that I wanted to cancel my membership and get my money refunded

The woman told me to mail the membership package back to them and then they would refund my money. I mailed it back to her just the way she told me to insured also.

When I did not receive my refund I called the company again and the lady told me to send a letter to cancel my membership.

I mailed the letter and then I received a letter telling me that the 30 days were up and i didn't cancel in time to get my money back.

When I became a member I was told I had 100 days to cancel, and still get a refund.

This company should be put out of business for the way they treat people that are just trying to get by.

Contact the BBB and file a complaint against SMC - believe me SMC does NOT like it when they have to answer complaints that are files with the BBB.


BBB of the Tri-Counties

Here are the complaint form to fill out below - IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW UP WITH THE BBB, then cease
complaining right now, this is your only path to receive their attention.

These ripoff reports are good, but they do nothing to receive SMC's attention> Do you see Kerry Cox here defending SMC or anyone else from SMC, NO YOU DO NOT, because they do not care, they just ignore these posts.

They do not ignore the BBB, because they do not want to loose their BBB Membership - The BBB in
phoenix AZ suspended SMC's membership for their boiler room operation division for false
advertising. SMC finally changed their "Do you want to make a Million" and took it off their ads. We did this, now you can help to but YOU MUST FILE.

Remember: fOLLOW THROUGH
