I was emailed a work from home opportunity and listened to the online video and the instructions were that I only needed to pay for the shipping of 9.95 and they were not asking for a lot of money like other work from home schemes so the starter DVD was the 9.95, and then to call the mentor to help get started. I was informed by the mentor that I would not have to sell anything and I would only need to work online and make the money, but to start the training program at first he through out a figure of $299.00 when on the video it stated it would not cost much money and only the 9.95, then when i went scrolled further down, it stated the cost would be less than 500.00, so I was thinking it may not cost much at all. When I watched the DVD it was about a product of losing weight and about the society today of weight loss, but the DVD stated as well it would not cost much at all. Then I spoke to the mentor and I explained my situation that I am 1099 and cannot afford the $299.00, so he through at me to pay 170.00 dollars to start and I would not have to sell the product and just be trained online and then when I make some money, I could go further with it. He instructed me to go on a conference call gave me my user ID and password to log in and call and watch what it was about. As I was watching it, it was to sell a product called Vemma that includes all vitamins in each drink as it is like a shake you buy as people buy in stores over the counter and then the package that I will receive, this conference call instructed me to sample the shake to people and then to set up a skype or google chat live for your own self. First of all, I told him I cannot afford much at all, so how can i afford to buy the equipment to use video chat (skype) and secondly, I would thereafter pay 50.00 a month for the products the drink which are called Verva, then you have Verva Bold and a drink for children for obesity. I emailed him and request a refund and I don't know what will happen now. Therefore, I am waiting to see when he calls if I will get refunded at least the $149.00 that I put out for this product not knowing that I would have to sell it and sample it??? This is pyramid scheme and I have seen and my ex-husband had done this kind of thing along with a few of my friends and family and it is a scam. All i request is my refund, but I emailed him tonight March 26 and waiting to see if he will give me a hard time to refund me my 149.00, which i am in a bad situation and 149.00 is a lot for me at the moment. I am reporting this beforehand as when I speak to him and if he does not refund me my money, what do I do. This is a pyramid scam and I am very upset as they made it sound like you only needed to work from home online, not selling door to door and then I have the conference call and it clearly tells you to take the Verna and sample it to people which is like selling it. So if I do not get my refund, what can I do. Thank you for taking the time in reading this as I think this is very horrible to mislead people like this.
