In early August I received a call from "Jason Fresh" offering to assist with marketing my business website. They would promote it on all the search engines and put in all the correct keywords and fine tune the site to get more hits.
The fees usually were in the thousands but he would make an exception. He would break it down into several smaller ones beginning with $199. Oo drawn on my checking account over the phone. I told him I wasn't sure I could afford it at the time, but he kept up the pressure until I finally gave in and gave him the checking account numbers. He said I could cancell the service within a couple days and he would not withdraw the money from the account.
The next day I called him back and told him to cancell the service as we were moving. I decided I was going to drop the website anyway. Later I received a letter dated 8/23/02 from the firm stating that they couldn't withdraw the amount from my account and to send check or money order in the amount of $199.
I called the "direct line" Jason had given me to reach him to no avail. I left a message for him to remember I had cancelled the service. I did not hear from him again, so I forgot the matter.
Meanwhile money has gotten very tight as Mother contracted pancreatic cancer and all my resources have gone to buy medication for her not covered by Medicare. I need every penny I can muster.
Yesterday I went over my bank statement and found a withdrawl by FutureVision Technologies, Inc. Dated 4/11/03 for $199.00. I was furious and I called the phone number on the face of the check. I got an answering machine. I left a scathing message for Jason Fresh to contact me, which of course he never did.
Then today I find another draft on my bank for $199.00 dated 5/12/03. Now I am more than furious and seeing more than red! I called him again, left more than a scathing message and proceeded to close my bank account.
In researching the Oregon Corporation files today I find the company filed dissolution 4/11/03. So... Knowing they were closing up shop they hit me and who knows who else!
I have reported the operation to the Oregon Consumer Fraud Division, Florida Fraud division and now the FBI. I am willing to participate in any class action litigation that is put together. I want these guys in jail!!!
Furious and ready to exact every ounce of revenge I can!
