On March 30 I was contacted by Global Executives about an application I submitted from a job board (indeed.com or careerbuilders.com) for an internet marketing position. This would be a work at home "business". I was placed on hold for a moment for a phone interview to be conducted by Tony Johnson; he then explained the affiliate program (Amazon, EBay, and Google. I was told this could be connected to my existing website. I was also told that I would receive my money that would work like a deposit as soon as I completed the 12 step certification. The 12 step certification should only take me a couple of hours and I would have my money back within a couple of days. The total charge $524.00. I was told that someone would call me within 15 min. to confirm my transaction. No one called or emailed? I did not sleep well that night because I was concerned that I had just given my credit card to a scam.
I call the phone number that I was given number did not go through. I call the phone number from which I was contacted leaving a message indicating that I was very upset questioning the credibility of the company. I received a call from Global Executives at 12:30pm form David Clark, who told me that I would be in contact with a company called Fortune 500 Affiliate Group. They dealt with all of their students? I was told this was a business transaction? Then I was told that if I wanted to get my website to work and make money for me that I would need to give them another $700 dollars. I told him that I was very dissatisfied that I would not be interested in the program.
I was contacted by the “media specialist – Gene” asked me questions about other credit cards that I have and wanted $1000. I was very upset requested my money back this was the 5th. I spoke with Steve on the 6th, who told me that I would receive a refund he sent me an email confirmation of the facts. On April 9th instead of getting a refund they withdrew an additional $104 from my account unauthorized.
I need a refund of my money I have been told since April 6th that my refund has been processed. They have withdrawn more money from my account. What I am really concerned about is that they are going to do this to someone else. I ran their name and there was not a public complaint. Please protect consumers by making this complaint public against Global Executives and Fortune500affiliates.com. If I would have seen a public complaint I would not have transacted business with them.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
