Hello, firt excuse me everybody here for my english I'm from Spain and I will try to explain my case most easy to understand.
Thank you RIP OFF for give me the opportunity to be heard.
Well, I'm from Spain and I live with my husband and father in law in the State of Virginia. My husband is a veteran of Iraq. We came here on the begining of 2004 to help his father who was living in the State of Montana at this time. Cause me I was from Spain we iniciate the paperwork to become a legal resident of USA, than in Inmigration they told me i can't work until my paperwork was finished. At this time my husband and I we doesn't have jobs and living on the house of my father in law helping him to remodeling the house to sell it.
I think if can't work in a legal job until recieve my green card i can try to make a little money having a webiste on internet, i'm very good with stitch cross and my idea was to make patterns on my computer and sell it on internet and with the profits give 50% to child in abandon and other 50% for me and my husband have something to buy food and pay expenses. I have all my files saved about how to do my website and what i sent to this guy, to prove everything.
Well, at this time i never used before internet for work, and most to do websites I never study nothing about this, than i search free estimates on differents companys to design my website and cause we don't have any icome at this time finally with the help of my father in law and my parents from Spain I find a company from Mexico who told me they design my website for $1,500 dollars. Comparing with other estimates i think was a deal! Now after 6 months learning by myself to design websites and other stuff i know this is ridicul.
Well, the contract was made on the State of Montana via email and phone (Verbal contract), my husband say in Montana a verbal contract is legal, i don't know. The contract we made was paying 20% in the begining, 20% on the middle and the rest when all was finished.
Than my father in law paid the $300 for the begining and after my parents sent from Spain to Mexico other $300, and than us we sent other $200. All this payments was made through Western Union, I have all the recieps.
I ever speack with him via MSN Hotmail, and because is from Mexico and speack Spanish for me was easy and thinking he was a real good person, I told him to give me time to pay because I'm waiting for my green card and can't work, he told me no problem. But my husband start to be very very angry to send to him money and don't see any results, he never should me anything!
I was stupid because i ever trust people and never ask questions, and when my husband told me to ask him for results the cake turn the face. He give me a lot of excuses, telling me the money i sent is not suffisant to do the work, or he had other jobs more important than mine, etc... He told us he never will refund the money. My husband told him on April he was 2 weeks to finish the site or he wanted the money refunded, the guy Carloscar told him this is not a possibility, and we told us than we will report him to the security forces and laws. He say is no problem, because he is in other country (Mexico) and USA can't do anything to him, he laughs and say:
"you think because you are american you all guys think you can do all what you want and enter in the lifes people anywhere on the world?"
I only can save one of the conversations between him and my husband and this is a part of the conversation:
Carloscar Tovar - Sitios Creativa - Desarrollo de pginas web y soporte says:
Just to repeat what i told you before, the money is not going to be refunded
is not an option
Yessenia says:
You made a contract and you broke it you made a verbal contract that you would send them and then the time i graciously allowed you you violated
and also it is an option leagally
Carloscar Tovar - Sitios Creativa - Desarrollo de pginas web y soporte says:
We made no contracts
Yessenia says:
ahh thats were you are wrong
the time you made the first agreement weith my wife
Carloscar Tovar - Sitios Creativa - Desarrollo de pginas web y soporte says:
And you were using agresively your military status to threat me
Yessenia says:
it took place in the state of montana and in montana a verbal contract is legal and binding
i dont threaten anyone its not my style i let my atiurneys and advisors handle that
Carloscar Tovar - Sitios Creativa - Desarrollo de pginas web y soporte says:
And i feel i'm not going to solve anything with you
Yessenia says:
If you read what you wrote you could rip me off if you wanted because we are in different countries
thats rigfht you wont but you will solve it with the police
Well, this is a part of the conversation, my husband told him to prove where is $800 in work! And he give us this url with this pictures:
Http://www.castleofdreams.Us/avances/
I don't know how much time more will be online, but if you see it this is the adavances of my website from 2004!!! Tell me if you think and you understand about website design if this worth $800 dollars 6 months of work! And other thing important if you see the date of the creation of this pictures you can see they was made on February!
Please, if somebody here can help me to recuper our money contact me, this money is not mine, my father in law and my parents give to me to help me to do something until i have my green card to work legal on this country. Now i have my green card i recieve it only 1 month ago and now i'm waiting for my social security number to start to search a job. I can't give me the luxury to loose $800 dollars, i don't make any income from the date i came in USA and my husband only is making income from 3 months ago. We don't have the money to pay lawyers, my husband told me to report this to the FCC because payements was made via Western Union and can be proved it and also he is a veteran of Iraq and perhaps we have option to a military lawyer for free, i don't know, i try to search information about and i don't find anything. I don't know with who speack, where to ask help, nothing! And my english is no very good, you can see it.
Please, someone can help me? I'm very sad with this, i know is my fault to trust everybody but i can't loose money what right now i can use it to buy food and pay expenses.
The website of this guy is:

Thank you again usacomplaints.com for this opportunity and i hope too with my case to help other people to be away from this guy. I only learn one something with this, perhaps is not the tipic scammer who desappear with the money after rip off somebody, but is the tipic who takes your money use it and don't give you the service requested, and for me this is fraud.
Thank you, God Bless
