To Whom It May Concern:
In mid December, I utilized Google's search engine to find a home based business opportunity in the wholesale/surplus domestic distribution and import/export industry. One of the opportunities I found was with The Global Connection of Scottsdale, Arizona. I made contact with TGC and talked to a recruiter named George Garrigus of California.
After exchanging several e-mails and telephone calls with George, George released the names and telephone numbers of several TGC affiliates. I called and talked to all of the affiliates.
Then, on January, 11th 2005 I sent a check to TGC for $3,975 to become an affiliate.in exchange for the $3975.00 I was to receive over 3000 pages of reference and training materials, complete hands on training in the set up and on-going operation of an affiliate's business, interactive training with a personal mentor, toll free telephone and fax communication for the training, and much more.
When TGC received my check, I was contacted by a TGC representative named Karen; I do not know her last name. Karen's job was to help new affiliates set up their home offices and to make sure that all paperwork was done properly. I completed and submitted, via fax and e-mail, my paperwork for TGC to Karen on Friday January, 28th 2005.
After I submitted my paperwork I attempted to call Karen at TGC, but I could not reach her so I left a message. Karen never returned my phone call. As a result, on Friday evening I began to worry.
Then, on Monday morning January, 31 2005 I called TGC and received a busy signal. Throughout the remainder of the day and the week I attempted to call Karen and George numerous times but every time I called, I relieved a busy signal.in addition, I wrote and sent numerous e-mail messages and never received a response. Also, I immediately called all of the affiliates on the list that I had received from George.
On Monday January, 31st approximately half of them disconnected their telephone service and the other half refused to return my messages. I was only able to make contact with one affiliate. An affiliate who claims to lives in Australia. It was a short conversation, he was in a horrible mood and he would not divulge any information. Then, a few days later he disconnected his telephone too. To this day, February, 24 2005 I have not been contacted my any TGC representative or affiliate.
