I clicked on an ad purporting to match homebound to small companies for work to be done at home. I received high pressure calls and emails and told them I wanted to do some research.
I responded to a banner ad seeking to match small companies with work-at-home contractors.instead I received a hard sell for what appears to be a scam operating under several names and having a number of unresolved complaints that I discovered thru several on-line complaint sites. The names are World Market Systems, 24 Hour Cash Flow, and Traffic Designs and all seem to have the same business plan. A website is prepared with a few newsfeeds and clickable links to bona-fide vendors. It takes 3 days to set up, allowing time for the deal to seal so the victim can no longer back out. The business model doesn't make any sense. Why spend money to get traffic to a non-descript portal so some visitors MAY click off to a real vendor to POSSIBLY buy something, for which you get a return? When the click-thrus don't materialize, expensive "advertising" is sold for thousands of dollars. Then (magically) the click thrus start appearing but never enough to recoup a fraction of the investment.
After making it perfectly clear on the telephone with Jason (1 888 230 7556 x 2365) and via email to Mark and Darlene Walston [email protected] (888) 213-2306 (Business Info & Voicemail) I am finding that these operators are unwilling to accept no for an answer. They will continue to ignore my sensible business decision, repeatedly mention that they are a "Christian" company (like that is supposed to instill a sense of trust, I assume). What other bearing could that have on a business transaction? A red-flag like this should not be missed.
Emails continue and I have been receiving a lot of "Nigeria" spam since my initial respons. I believe they sold my email info.

Dear Chris:
I still haven't heard back from you and I am about to make my final decision on a business associate so I want to make sure that I at least get a chance to talk with you before making my final decision.
Please keep in mind our average part-time manager makes up to a six figure income and some much more. I know that doesn't make you rich, but remember that is part-time. We also have full time positions available in which you could make some serious money!
Chris, don't save this email hoping to get to it later. Opportunity cost is mounting and tomorrow will be no better than today unless you decide to change your direction. If you are interested in making money with your own home-based business, invest ten minutes into an honest business that you can build with integrity.
Best of Success and I hope to hear from you soon!
