On 5/19/05 a sales person Mr. Ed. Auler showed up in our office claiming he had an appointment with our company, about increase sales for the business. We seat down he explained Int'l Profit Associates is a company with a big net work of marketing in the country, that would bring our company into a high volume of sales and a complete business development service.
I told him I would like to see it further, next day Mr. L Dean Alm, came up and introduce me his side of the business stating that they would bring my company totally positive in sales, using their knowledge in the market and that the payment to his company would be made in accordance with the results their company would bring to us. I agreed with their proposal as I signed their contract for their services with an initial credit card deposit in the amount of $600.00 $ 4,500.00 (amount already in dispute with Amex), next day
we had Mr. Al Guler / Mr. Richard C. Schreyer and Mr. Mark K. Preston, they spent 2 days in our company checking our financial, at the end of the second day
they presented me a forecast in A/R that would permit us to pay their first invoice in the amount of over $18.000.00 for one week of their work, I told them that we had no funds to pay for this invoice, first due to the fact of we own payment to our supplier already
past due and we must pay our supplier, second was the understanding that your company will collect your part as the results starts and we would work together.
After this explanation they just reprint their invoice for the amount of $9,952.24 for two days of work, plus the order part paid with credit card in the total amount of $5,100.00, and they said that if payment is not made in one week they would get their legal department to contact us, they also said after they receive the payment they would come back to continue their service.
No service was made in our company at all, except checking our financial to find out if we could pay what they would be charging us.
Yesterday we received the invoice in the Amount of $9.952.24 to pay, I told Mrs. Janice Tillotson we would commit to pay the amount they claimed to be expenses to have their 3 person here for two days ($ 2,902.24), the reason we agreed to pay this amount was to give us time to find out more about their illegal operation, after we received their ok to receive this amount to close this case, they told us the payment on the credit card would be another company involved as they could not tell us the name of the company, I have being trying to end this history with the payment of $2,902.24 and they are still claiming the credit card is another
company, after investigating with the credit card, we found out that their company is the one that processed the credit card charge, after this I realize that this is a SCAM, they may be acting illegal in the market trying to claim money for service they do not provide, and why they would be hiring information from us.
Please let me know if you may need further information, as I beleive the information above states what kind of operation they are runing in this country.
