J.P. Morgan Chase Bank abuse of non-bank customers

J.P. Morgan Chase bank is committing one of the most abusive check cashing schemes in the Country. I recently was given 2 checks from a Chase account holder for a piece of furniture I sold to them. I went to the local Chase Bank to cash the checks and boy was I in for a surprise. The bank informed me that the bank policy for non-bank customers was to charge a check cashing/handling fee of $6.00 on any check over $50. Since I accepted a check for both the down payment and final

2011 Government Shutdown

Ok, well this may or may not fall under a true “scam” depending on how you look at it. But the fact that the government is considering shutting down is on the verge of ridiculous. Let’s take a look at this entire scenario from different angles. I will start by saying that I am in no way, shape, or form an expert in politics. I couldn’t tell you specifically what each department’s responsibilities are or what exactly they do. But, I do live in this country. I do pay my taxes and I do love my country. However, at one point, I did put an effort into learning how the political world works and was lost in no time. It shouldn’t be that difficult. They have a job to do, just do it. But, apparently, there is so much to deciding what laws to put in place and how to enforce them, etc. Unfortunately, it is all driven by money, not by what is the right thing to do.

Work from home scams revealed

Work from Home Scams Revealed

Author:

Bobby Walker

Work from home scams are all over the internet. Scams trying to sell you pipe dreams, secrets or systems that will allegedly make you a few hundred dollars per day or weeks such as Rebate Processing, Envelope Stuffing, Typing/Data Entry, Google Money Scams, etc. But, by far the worst kinds are the home business offers that tell you how you can make thousands of dollars for a small up-front investment and little work. Many of these scams will even use the brand or identity of legitimate companies to lure you into a sense of security. Google Money Tree, who was just shut down by the Federal Trade Commission, is one example of this.

As the owner of a work at home website MyWealthyLifeBegins.com that helps people avoid work at home scams, I know a lot about these. So I\’ve decided to update you with the latest work from home scams revealed. The first thing to remember is that scams tend to repeat themselves with slight variations, kind of like infomercials. This is how these scam companies stay in business. They will run a scam until people, and sometimes the government, starts to catch on. Then they will start another slight variation of the same scam under a different company name. When you are constantly looking for these companies like I do you begin to see a pattern. Don\’t let a different website name, job description, or company name confuse you; if it sounds like one of the scams listed below, it\’s a scam. For example, Google Money Tree is a known scam, so if another company appears exhibiting many of the same traits described in the Google Money Tree scam; it\’s probably a variation of the same scam.

Etoro Forex Trading A Scam Be Very Carefull

hello My name is #$%^. i was sold $1000 (R7000) to join Etoro forex trading. I was told 30% return on my investment per week. I needed a $1000 so that i could get a personal trading coach to hold my hand tell me what to buy and sell and guid me in the right direction. The salesman did a good lying sales job and I even got one of my freinds to invest as well. Needless to say NOTHING that was promised has materialised.
I have pretty much lost most the money when i complained to the coach he told me to cash my money in. they also take off the joining bonus and refferal bonus.
This was a huge sacrifice to invest so much money as i earn an average salary. The coach told me if i had $10 000 that would be a different story. They send you links that you cannot open for training. you follow the graphs buy accordingly and lose everytime. they make mony on the spread and a few pips. so go look at their site and what they are offering its all a SCAM NOTHING IS TRUE.

FHTM’s plan for financial freedom

This blog is courtesy of Corporate frauds Watch. :batman: 

For 50+ years, virtually no ‘MLM’ wampum has been sold to the public for a profit by Shyam

Last year, we posted an exposé of a grotesque, narcissistic charlatan, Alan Kippax, and his pernicious ‘MLM business opportunity’ cult, known as ‘Business In Motion.’ We later informed readers that Mr. Kippax had been jailed in Canada for causing the death (by wreckless driving) of his cousin and for maiming an innocent young couple, and that his ongoing ‘MLM/BIM’ racketeering activities were finally facing limited, criminal investigation in Canada. At that time, I severely criticized UK government trade regulators who (6 years previously)) had caught Kippax red-handed, running the identical ‘Amway’ copy-cat cult in Britain behind an absurd corporate front known as ‘Treasure Traders Corp.’, but who had then allowed this dangerous little liar to flee to his homeland of Canada with stolen funds totalling several millions pounds which he used to set up the ‘BIM’ fraud.

According to the North Carolina AG office and the FTC press release: 

Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing lies about its 3A1 D&B rating to entice people to join its pyramid scheme. See full current report at www.fhtmclassaction.info

FTC Steps Up Efforts Against Scams That Target Financially-Strapped Consumers
More Than 90 Actions Brought By Commission and Its Law Enforcement Partners

Attorney General Roy Cooper today joined state attorneys general from across the country and the Federal Trade Commission to announce a national sweep targeting business opportunity scams, including actions against four companies that have targeted North Carolina consumers.

“When jobs are scarce, claims to help people make money fast become plentiful,” Cooper said. “Consumers think they’re buying into a great way to earn a living, but they could end up paying far more than they’ll ever make.”

Zon Walk in Baths – Dishonest People

Don’t trust these people. They steal from subcontractors. 

ZON WALK-IN BATHS
BEWARE!!!!
Zon Walk-in Baths out of Ormond Beach, FL has been in business since December 2010. In the short time they have been in business they have managed to make numerous enemies.
Zon Walk-in Baths sells walk in bathtubs. They do not install them. They use sub-contractors. Zon Walk-in Baths does not supply materials for the install, they supply tubs only. The sub-contractor is required to buy all installation materials.[ Zon tells the sub-contractor that Zon supplies all materials]. This includes what Zon Walk-in Baths sells on their contract as Zon wall board, which in fact is FRP [fiber reinforced paneling] that Zon Walk-in Baths requires the sub-contractor to supply. They also sell the home owner an infill box. There is no such thing, again the sub-contractor is required to purchase materials and build something to fill in between the end of the tub and wall. So far they have sold 2 items that do not exist.[Can you say breach of contract?]
