Hi All!
This happened to me late last year.
I got scammed by people from Utah.
They claimed to help me design an online store and provide me with all the support that I would need.
After I gave my payment, I saw that what they were preaching before and what they were doing were two very different things.
They were just adding to my costs with no real benefits.
After doing futher research on them, I found out that they really do scam people and are banned in a lot of states in the US and in several countries world wide.
I spent a small fortune (practically all my financial reserve) and have nothing to show for it.
I asked for my money back but they kept giving me BS.
Eventually, they stopped all communication.
What makes it worse is that a few weeks later, they maxxed out the two credit cards I gave them for financial reference.
I asked the bank to stop the transaction and reverse the charges but they only said that they have already forwarded the funds to these crooks and that they can no longer do anything about it.
The bank told me that it is now MY job to go after them.
It really sucks.

Nalugi na rin ako sa isang project ko... I did a project sa Cavite, building house on a turn-key basis (payment will only be made upon completion of the housing units).. A friend who were looking for an oppurtunity to earn asked if he could join me sa project na to, I oblidged and he invested a sum of money, agreement is 50-50 kami sa earnings ng project.
Then disaster struck... the project owner had their financial woes and we were not paid.. my partner then chase me and demanded that i return his puhunan.... my lawyer friends told me na wala siyang habol dun, since joint venture kami.. hati sa kita.. hati sa lugi...
But in the end, i returned every single cent my partner invested.... now.. siya ang di makatingin sa akin.. na-realize siguro niya na mali siya sa ginawa niya.. and I receovered from that temporary setback.. and now my biz is doing great.

ako din nalugi.
Meron kami nang wife ko nang distribution nang meat products [ baboy, chicken and baka ].
Nagdedeliver kami sa mga hotel, restaurants and mga motel. Sa unang 2years ang lakas were earning 100k a month minus ko na dun overhead expenses sa mga tao dahil office namin sa bahay na lang kasi nagpull out na ako sa monterey nagsarili ako hango at kuha nang produkto.
Kampante ako kasi lakas eh may trabaho ako regular job. Wife ko na lang nagmanage, isang araw tumatawag na sa akin yung mga supplier namin kasi may terms na kami 30-45days nagtatalbugan daw check nang wife ko.
To make the story short napabayaan nang asawa ko hindi na nya nakaya ang management ang masakit di nya sinasabi sa akin.
Nagbayad ako kulang kulang 1M sa mga supplier namin na pinagkakautangan nang asawa ko.
Loan at utang ako dito para mabayaran.
di ko alam ano masuggest ko dito kayo na lang

June 26th, 2007 07:01 AM #38Nalugi hindi,
Naloko oo--
I went into a resto business with my former tutor as a partner, as in bata pa ko tutor ko na sha sa school. Malakas ang resto and catering business namin kse we operate our own resort kaso lang ang magaling na partner ko, kinukupit pala niya at ng asawa nya ang mga DP ng clients para i-casino tapos binabalik pag nananalo sila then nung one time na natalo sila ng malaki, tinakbo nila yung bayad ng isang client ng resort namin (UST) worth 80,000 pati yung sweldo ng resto staff namin kasama dun,
Yun pala itinaya at tinalo sa casino kaso di makabalik sa min kse naubos nila yung pera.
Ang daming nagpuntahan sa opisina namin after sila tumakas kse illegal recruiter din pala ang mag-asawa at may iba pa silang naloko na nagsanla ng lupa para lang makaalis pero itinakbo din nila ang pera.
Nagtago ang mag-asawang yun and nalaman ko bigla nung namatay si FPJ na dun na nagtatrabaho sa QUIAPO CHURCH as assistant nung head priest ng Quiapo Church--sila yung ininterview nung namatay si FPJ at binurol dun.
Shempre niloko din nila ang simbahan, tinakbo ang pera and ginamit ang convention trip ng Quiapo Church para makatakbo sa America--ayun TNT na ngayon dun at dala ang pera ng Quiapo Church.. last year lang sila umalis.
Dapat yata Goon Squad ito... okay lang ba ilagay ko names nila dito? Para makapagingat din ang iba sa kanila....

Sa mga nagbabalak magbusiness, kung ayaw nyong malugi, wag na kayong magbusiness. 50-50 talaga ang chance na malugi, dito pa satin siguro 80-20. Sipag lang and good strategy =) and tips din from experienced tsikoteers
Choosing one would depend on your driving and parking conditions. Do you have your own garage =...
