I was approached by two teenagers on 1/29/09, who claimed to live up the street and had lost there father in the Iraq war recently. I was brought to tears. I am not an old sucker, I am a street smart man who came out of Berkeley with a law education less than five years ago. I did not think anyone would lie about a family member dying. That is the sort of young trash you have running around with these receipt books. They asked for money for a soccer game and lied about everything. They asked for cash instead of a check. I gave them $49 dollars cash. This is a petty larceny in California, to walk off with nearly $50 dollars cash from someones home. I was never sent any product as promised; I was told the book would come to me to donate at the hospital nearby personally; I was also promised a barnes and noble coupon worth $25. Four months later, nothing arrived. There was no way to cancel the order as the "self employed" person you gave these receipts to did not fill in their name or contact info. You are liable for these people as the reason I gave them money is because of the receipt with your company name, understanding I could recover the product or money if I was lied to on both the kids stories (they would come do chores as well) and on the product I paid for, which it turned out I was. Your company is responsible if these receipts ar misused this way. I will be preparing a copy of this receipt submitting it to the local news I-team reports and making sure that people in Oakland California and elsewhere, by means of mass circulars, are aware of how irresponsible your company is in allowing kids to run around stealing money from people. This implicates you in a federal crime, as this is occuring across state lines. I demand that my money be refunded or what was promised be delivered on, or I am going to go further and use my legal connections to have the federal authorities shut you down for gross negligence. You cannot have the contractors accepting cash an then not hold them accountable; nor can you "legitimize" their scam with your name and website address, and then attempt to escape responsibility if people are being stolen from. The receipt number I entered, D033 106046 does not even come up on your website. I have the original here, and can scan it nd forward it. I have also registered this complaint on the website "usacomplaints.com" to warn others. I have been ripped off. How you respond to this, probably one of many complaints such as this you recieve, will determine the course of action I take. I can tell you that I will eventually ensure that no one in this city and neighboring areas ever gives to this or the related companies listed on the web, as this is fraud. I am referrring this matter to the local police and the postal inspectors office for mass circular to warn others. This is not the first complaint about your door to door sales business. If need be, regardless of what you do, if there are enough complaints regulation will be imposed on you and action take n against you for negligence. There is no reason to allow for cash to be transacted when you have had experienced fraud with your "contractors." They may have claimed a receipt book was "lost." And you have not held these people responsible. The next time anyone from your company is in this area they will be arrested on sight; I will personally tackle them down and perform a citizen's arrest. I am going pay you a visit in Arizona as well if this matter is not resolves amicably. A US PO BOX means Postal Inspectors can get involved here and someone can be collared at that PO BOX.
