I had been searching web sites regarding working from home on my computer to earn money since I was between jobs. I received an unsolicited email and since this said "Google" I assumed it was legit. It also said I would not be charged until I received a kit and authorized payment.
On Monday 12/10/07 I obtained a printout of my checking account and found a "Pre-Authorized Debit" in the amount of $29.95. The teller told me to call back Tuesday 12/11/07 and she would have the information about the company that posted the debit.
I called back 12/11/07 and obtained the name "Growing Rich with Google" and 866-396-5695 in order to contact this company. The gentleman who answered gave me his name as Nick and his employee # 0504737 - he refused to state his last name. He tried to pitch me a line about the company.
At that time I told him I was not interested, demanded a refund and to desist from debiting my account in the future. He stated my account would be refunded within 3 to 5 business days and gave me a refund #.
He then told me that another company "Grand Master" would also be debiting my account and gave me their # 800-418-9320. Grand Master also goes by "Network Agenda" (I'd say they have an "Agenda!). Anyway, the gentlman who answered was named Nick. I informed Nick I did not authorize this company to debit my account and was not interested in their services. Nick then gave me a cancelllation# and said my account would not be debited.
My concern is the underhanded way in which these companies operate. I NEVER authorized them to debit my account. When I reached them I simply told them I was not interested, I had a job now, and to not ever debit my account in the future. We shall see what happens by Friday Dec. 14 at the latest.
Thank you for your website.
