In August I lived in Michigan and was losing my job. I started to look on the internet for jobs online or otherwise. Of course I got resposes from all over the place. I got a call from a Mr. Brian Thomas from Millennium Marketing / Casey Consultants. He was so friendly yet pushy at the same time. I put my husband on the phone to listen to the sales pitch and like a dummy we fell for it. I was told that is was no risk thing cause if they didnt make my money back within a year I would be able to get some of it back. I was told that I was going to make so much money that I could roll in it within 6 months, doing a online mall with ebay, amazon.com, buynow.com, Target.com, Officedepot.com plus Liberty Health packages and a pre paid legal package. Bryan Thomas was going to be my coach and see me through the process. I was given a name for my online mall that I would have to use for tax purposes and getting paid from Commission Junction and Amazon.com. (I have yet to see any income what so ever). That created a web page for my mall and made it look all professional and all. After a few months that I was told I had to wait to get to the top of the page in search engines so I could start getting clicks and hits on my web page (that never happened) I was told to be patient so that they could do all the advertising to get me where I needed to be. So I waited. Not only did I not get to the top of any search engine, even with me working my butt off to get free advertising on all kinds of crazy web sites, I started not getting any response form Millennium Marketing. I spoke so often to the receptionist Denise, that she knew my voice and account #. I was calling and leaving messages for Brian Thomas and they were never returned. I got scared and was told that he was very ill and not in the office. Thats when the fun started cause I was calling almost everyday trying to get in touch with someone or anyone. I was very upset and all I got to talk to was the receptionist. I left messages for the owner to call me back, never heard from him. I talked to a few people that did the same as Brian and promised me they would look into the situation never to hear from them again. I could never talk to the same person twice. I went so far as going to the web site and having my husband sign up for the service to get someone to call us back. That call was very interesting cause they gave him the whole sales pitch again just as Brain Thomas did to me. When my husband told him that his wife was already into this marketing scam the guy got all flustered asked for my account # then went as far as telling him that that wasnt my account number cause it already belonged to someone else a Mr. Nick Fitzpatrick. At that time I did get to talk to a so called supervisor, he as well was flustered and got very upset with the gentleman that told my husband that wasn't my account number and told me that he was not suppose to tell people stuff like that. He went on to tell me that he would find out what was going on and that I did show some income on their side, which I never saw or did I ever hear from the manager again, Jason Cole, who was the manager, I talked to Mike Warren, Jimmie McNight, and several others. Before I did any of this I checked them on the BBB and at the time they didn't have but very few complaints and they were setteled.
At that point I filed a BBB report that went to them and I was informed from the BBB that my complaint went unanswered. After that I really didn't hear from anyone no matter what I did, calling at least once a day for a month straight. Then one day out of the blue I got a call from a Mr. Jack Foster saying that Brian had did me wrong and he was going to help me. And he at least would return my calls. But still nothing from anyone.in the middle of all this happening I had to pack my life and move 2500 miles away to find a job cause the economy in Michigan was so bad. My unemployment was running out and I didn't have anything but a huge credit card bill to pay off from the scam I fell for. They had me charge $8800.00 ($400.00 for the website design and $8400.00 for the advertising) on my credit card in two different charges one to Casey Consulting and one to Millennium Marketing. Brian Thomas even went as far as getting on the phone in a 3 way call to confirm the charge. He told me that at the end of the year I could get $400.00 back if we didn't make it back and I've been trying to pull teeth to get that back and still haven't and it's been well over a year now. Boy was I taken for a ride. Please Help stop this company that is taking innocent BROKE people trying to make a honest living. I tried to tell these people that I was depending on this business to help make ends meet not put me in the poor house and that excatly what it did. This company deserves to investagated for Fraud and many other crimes cause they are taking people for the ride of their life into bankruptcy.in this day with the economy so bad people are grasping at straws to stay afloat and this company is helping drown them and myself in more debt. Please do something to stop it!!!
