The directory cost $40.00 and it took 6 weeks for the directory to reach my house, not 3 as indicated on the website. However, BEFORE my directory came, I received a job offer from Coupon Direct of Canada. I accepted the offer and sent them 39.99 cnd. I was in the understanding that this was part of the employment package from the CHJR (Canadian Home Job Review) employment directory. It was not.
This job offer was asking you to go out and collect coupons from companies and then stand at grocery stores and go into your community asking people to sign up for $10.00 and you will send them coupons. So, you have to do all the foot work and the money comes from those who you sign up. Now anyone in thier right mind knows that you can go and get your own coupons. The SCAM is, what they said in their offer does not match what they sent. The OFFER was to PROCESS coupons, fill the number/coupon code on a worksheet and send the worksheets in too be paid. So, I got taken on that one, for $39.99.
Then about 2 weeks after I received the CHJR employment directory. This directory has about 170 companies that say you will make approx. $400-800/week or more if you register with thier company. Funny thing is and important, is that Coupon Direct of Canada is NOT LISTED with this directory, which I am still trying to understand how they got my information???...
When I inquired with the companies (such as making braclets, tpying jobs, crafts) that had website addresses in the directory, they wanted you too send approx. $35.00-$40.00 for start up kit etc. There are quite a few 'job offers' for daily paid surveys and what not. You DONT make $400.00/week doing these surveys. The most these surveys offer are and entry into sweepstakes, contests/points, or $1.00-3.00 per completed surveys. Sometimes you are not even eligible for them.
Then there are only about 10 companies that you can contact by phone and those are hotlines and or agents who again want you to send money to start up.
The rest of the companies are those where you must mail $1.00-2.00 for an information package to be sent to you. I am almost positive that you will need to send money to those as well for a start up kit. But I have wasted enough money on these SCAMS and I did not want to send anymore money to be taken again.
The thing that really bothered me is that I lost $39.99 to Coupon Direct of Canada and then another $40.00 to the Canadian Home Job Review and Employment Directory. I have been told numerous times and have heard lots of messages about SCAMS and if a comany/business asks you to send money first, they are going to rip you off. I should have listened.
I was wondering if someone can contact me about information on how to start an investigation and how to get my money back. These companies and people who start them, should be penalized financially and made to pay back all those who they RIPPED OFF!!!
