Checking my statements there was a check #1 for $299.00 that was cashed. I did not have a check with that number so let me see what it is. I totally freaked out when I looked at that check and did not know who it was. I studied the check and the name of my bank along with the city I live in were wrong. I was ready to cry. My boyfriend started to find out from his laptop what this company was and where. Well we got the BBB site and ip-Off site with something to make a foundation on and make my next move. I had to wait until the next business day to go to the bank. I went to my bank and filed out all of their forms to get my money back and at the same time I had to close out the account.
I have direct deposit which means I will not be getting my pay checks. When I tried calling the company Helen of Trades at their number 1-888-378-6420 the number is disconnected and their is no web site to go to. I went to the police after leaving my bank and I was then directed to the police dept where my bank is a different town and then directed back to my local police dept. Both departments were very nice and wanted to help and my local department did help me ery much and the other police department was called n by the bank branch in the town so now both are helping this problem.
I want everyone to know do not use the net to purchase anything, do not use your atm card to make purchases, and do not give your information over the phone. Use your check or credit card and never shop online for anything. If you have to order your music, furniture, clothes from catalogs use a money order or you to will be running from place to place to correct this problem.
