A few months ago I called on an ad in the newpaper about a man selling his coffee distribution route. It sounded promising, and I wanted the owner to finance the sale himself to me. I called and the owner would not do that. I spoke with a man name Bobby Pace, and he told me how instead of buying an established route for 80,000$, I could start my own for $10,000!!! It sounded to good to be true.
So, I did my due diligence. These people are sneaky. I was promised 8 retail accounts that sold four coffee bags a day and 5 or more commercial accounts that earned me 100$ or more a week! It sounded great. So I asked Bobby if I could speak with other distributors who are making good solid money in this business. He gave me the phone numbers to two individuals. They were located in Washington DC and Newburg, New York.
I called them. I spoke with them and they seemed like they were genuine. The guy in New York even spoke like he was from New York. I'm from Philly, so I know New Yorkers.
Well, let's fast forward 2 months after spending $10,000 for this business, and lo' and behold, their phones are disconnected. Lo' and behold, I don't have any commercial accounts. Lo' and behold, I CAN'T GET A HOLD OF THIS COMPANY!!! Not to mention, the distributors I called in DC and New York, aren't reachable whatsoever!!!
I have been officially scammed and conned out of over $10,000, and I'm not a happy camper. These people are smart and you need to be aware. They will change the names of their company, the name of their website, and their own names, so that they can attack many more victims like myself. Don't let them do this. I am an idiot for buying into this and I wish that I could take it back. Don't fall for something that is too good to be true. It never is. To make good money in business it takes WORK. A LOT OF WORK.
For everyone else effected by these A#holes, I'm so incredibly sorry that this happened to you as well.
Better luck next time
