I was searching for a home based business to earn a full-time income at home since I'm unemployed at the present time and I found Computer Learning Center on the Internet. They offer a data entry course with instructions on how to type ads for different well known companies such as Dish Network, SONY, Circuit City, and about 15 other well known companies.
I typed ads everyday for two weeks starting on Fri. Aug. 4 until Fri. Aug 18. I called their customer service number everydays for two weeks, leaving about 20 telephone messages within that two weeks, but no one ever called me back. I also left several email messages and only received an auto-reply or no reply at all.
I became very suspicious after two weeks of trying to reach someone at Computer Learning Center and not receiving a response so I decided to do a google search even though I had done one before I purchased the course.
When I did my google search the first time I put in Computer Learning Center and I received several thousand matches and I never went through them all because there were at least a 100,000 matches.
When I did my google search the second time after I became suspicious, I put in Computer Learning Ctr exactly the way the actual website is worded and that's when I came up with a better match and there was a complaint listed in one of the matches that led me to the rip off report website.
After I realized that this business is a scam an that they never intended to pay anyone for the work that they've done I requested a refund through their refund email address [email protected] but I was asked several questions for them to fulfill my refund, but I did not answer their questions because I figured it would be a waste of time.
I then requested my $99 refund through clickbank on Fri. Aug. 18 and I received a response on Mon. Aug. 21. I received my refund by Fri. Aug. 25, so I received my refund within 5 days of requesting it through clickbank.
I'm not sure if clickbank is in on the scam or not, but they will grant you a refund if you've ordered this piece of crap within 60 days of requesting your refund.
This company used several tatics to make people believe they are a legitimate company. They have the company listed on a website called Comsumer Advocacy Group which lists them a the #1 home base business with an average income of $85,000 a year.
They pretend to be affilated with several legitimate companies using a website called 999amazingdeals.com and they also provide a calculator through this website so that you can estimate your earnings.
This company covered all their bases to make this opportunity look legitimate. I have to wonder if they are collecting earnings from the ads that me and several other students have submitted.
I believe this is why they tell you in the course that is going to take 45-60 days to receive your first check. I think they try to get as much work out of you as they can before you realize that company is one of worst scams on the internet.
