Claimed to provide a product, took my money, never delivered the product or returned my money even after promising to refund it

I spent a lot of money with this company. I was a great client, paid my bills. Their work was mediocre, at best. I finally asked to purchase a product that was $250, I wanted the source code for one of their products to help guide me in my own rewrite because their products were so buggy.

I was told I would receive the product after I paid the $250. I never received it. I called, emailed, etc. Until finally I received this email from them:

You will be receiving a refund shortly. (3 to 5 business days usually).

Good luck with your project!

End here

Needless to say, no refund, return phone call, email reply. Nothing. It's been over 30 days since the refund was promised.

These guys are frauds. Beware!
