My husband and I have fallen for these scams too. I am a stay at home mom/full-time student, so we were looking for a way to increase our income by just a couple hundred dollars a month. We started with the PMI-Auctions for Income, then we were contacted by the NMR Coaching staff. After talking with Ryan, we were convinced that this was something that we wanted to do.
It was going to be a lot of work but I was going to have a coach to help me through the whole thing. So $4135 and $29.95 a month for the hosting of my website, I begin the coaching sessions and building a website. The coaching sessions were not what I had expected and really didn't help much at all. Next, we were contacted by The Tax Club.
They convinced us that we needed them to handle the taxes for our business, it would make tax filing so much easier. Also they convinced us that we needed to become a corporation so we could take advantage of 27 tax breaks just for corporations. Back to that easier tax filing, I was told that I could get on the computer and input all of my expenses into my account instead of having to do it at the end of the year. Well $1500 and $49.95 a month later, I signed into my account to input the expense but I could not input any expenses unless I joined an afflilate company that handles that. And the cost for that was unknown, you had to call to get a price because it depends on your business size.
Ok, I finally got the website complete and was ready to publish it when my coach tells me that I have to pay to register it before I will be allowed to publish it. So here come more hidden fees and costs. They just keep adding up.
We're 10k in credit card debt and sinking fast. I wish I would have found this site 6 months ago. I have read a lot of these entries and I'm just wondering has ANYONE been able to get a refund? And if so, what steps did you take to get it???
