My fiance was victim to this popular internet scam. I am here to tell you, that you should NEVER submit your information to these people, and in doing so, you risk your financial security. My fiance received an email from TopHotelsInCity, a place neither of us had subscribed to, used, or even heard of. The email was a direct link to www.homeemploymentagency.net
These people go on to tell you that you can make $75 an hour, just by sitting on ebay all day. Listen folks, its too good to be true. Not even with a college degree can you easily make $75 an hour.
The Home Employment Agency (HEA), is a total scam. First off, they ask you to submit to them $49.95 $9.95 S&H. But they DO NOT ship you anything, so whats with the shipping charges? After you have fallen for their scam, you have access to what seems like a legit website. You have 5 Free lessons (though not free because you just submitted to them $60), and these lessons are only videos/fake programs to teach you how to become what I'd like to call, "A Super Awesome eBay Seller". After paying $60, they want you to pay $97 more plus more S&H.
This is your basic Pyramid scam in one. They have you start off with only a fee of $49.95 $9.95, then you have to pay $97.00 and more. The amounts just keep building up, as you bank account goes down. Then, when you call their phone number for their 'Customer Care' you can hear through the voice, that it has been altered to protect all identities to this person. The voice on the phone sounds like one of the chipmunks. These people aren't stupid either. You can ask and ask and ask for your money back, but they hang up on you. Pretty awesome business.
Not only that, but if you search on bbb.org (Better Business), these people have so many claims and complaints against them that their rating is a solid F. They have complaints against them for fraud, collections fraud, not getting back to customers, and so on goes the records. After these people rack up the reports against them, guess what. They change their website, spokesperson, and change their whole "business attire". They change what they sell, how much the sell it to you for, and who is selling it. Elizabeth Jackson seems like she is pretty popular with these people, and she is the current "#1 Seller" for the HEA.
To sum this all up, anything that seems better than a college degree, the lottery, or robbing a bank overnight is a SCAM SCAM SCAM! Never release anything over the internet without a secure link between you and the site. No one should ever ask you for your Drivers License, Credit Card, Bank Routing Number, or Utility Bill. Never give anyone your password or SSN. These are sure fire SCAMS.
We're still waiting for our refund we were promised, and will continue to monitor these fradulant people. I assure you that home employment should never cost anything, nor should any job. If you have to put money in, to get money back, its a SCAM. Let's put these people to rest and get them out of America!
