Bait and Switch! Big time rip off

After I posted and ad on Craig's list for my service I was contacted by someone who called himself Jose Yumet. He said that he was looking for vendors that provided my service and he could provide me with a lot of work. He told me this was a once in a life time opportunity and only a select few from the area would be chosen. I first needed to send him my references and if I am selected he will send me an email with additional information. He gave me his personal email and phone number at first. I was able to call him an time of the day.
Time was of the essence and if I delayed then I would miss out on this great deal. Finally I was made aware that he was seeking for me to do advertising with superpages and it will cost me money. My first concern was that I did not have a budget for advertising and I will not be able to pay for it. He guaranteed me that I would receive additional clients so I could pay for the additional advertising cost. I even had three month to pay and I should have new clients by then. I have yet to receive one phone call or even one inquiry about my service from a superpages lead. Although I did receive leads from telemarketing people (just what I needed more people asking for money), a few hang ups, and someone looking for a job. NO NEW BUSINESS!!! They were suppose to send out mailers. The mailers they maid looked silly and all the information I requested be included on the mailer was omitted so I ask that they not be sent.
So why should I pay hundreds of dollars for nothing. It so sad that instead of Superpage trying to be a respectable company they have resorted to scamming small business out of their money
