I too, am a victim of BTSI Networking/Online Pharmacy scam. I was contacted by the account manager, Mr. Randall Price (bogus name) 02/07 to purchase an internet affiliation program stating I would "make money" by purchasing an online website pharmacy with XL Phamacy. The price, $495.00 which I paid with by a cc. I was again contacted by BTSI 2 weeks later to purchase internet advertising banners needed to promote my website. A Mr. Green (bogus) tried to convince me I had to spend at least $8-10 thousand to receive more advertising banners, but settled for $5 thousand. Total cost $5500.00. I was "promised" to receive checks in the mail for sums of money. Blah. Blah. Blah. 3/07 I faxed BTSI (Mr. Green) a letter stating that I wanted a refund because I was skeptical of their business practices. He told me he couldn't refund me the full $5995., but only the start up fee of $495 and would credit back my cc and BTSI would still continue to promote my website. As I write this a year later, I did not receive a credit back to my cc nor a single "make money" check! And yes, I did contact my cc company the end of 3/07 and the phone number on the statement when I was billed from BTSI, guess what, it was a laundry service phone number! I feel so stupid to fall in a scam such as this, but at first it sounded great, what a fool!
