Tucson, AZ - July 30, 2008 – BBB serving southern Arizona has received a rash of complaints from across the country against CashKrazy.com, a work-at-home company claiming a Tucson address of 5425 E Broadway Rd Suite #282.
BBB has verified that the address listed by CashKrazy.com belongs to a UPS store.
According to the company Website, consumers need only “enter certain information about yourself and display your knowledge…Most of these paid surveys take only fifteen minutes to complete. Once completed you are paid. It's that simple.”
But consumers, who responded to the company’s ads on sites such as Facebook and Google, tell BBB a different story.
“I took survey after survey and even signed up for some PAID offers to earn more money,” writes a consumer from Troy, Ala., “As of today, I've earned $230.40. When I requested the money to be paid to me, I was only then told that $400 must be earned before payout can be processed. After my account hit the $200 mark, ALL OFFERS dropped to $3 or below. Most offers were only worth cents. There is no possible way for a customer to earn over $400,”
“I was told I would be paid for performing my services for this website but it appears that they have no intention of paying their so-called ‘employees.’ I have actually LOST money because of them,” writes a consumer from Powhatan, Va. “This company is a real SCAM and takes advantage of citizens who are trying to earn extra money to make ends meet!!!”
BBB has received eight complaints against the company, four of those since July 28. One of those complaints has been closed as unanswered; the rest are pending. All complaints allege the same thing: consumers have not received payment, they were not told in advance about the $400 payout requirement, and the company does not respond to their concerns.
BBB has attempted to contact the company by phone and postal mail, but has yet to receive a response. Through its investigation, BBB has learned that the company’s Web domain name was registered in Durango, Colo., in May, but names associated with the site are listed as private.
BBB suggests consumers use caution when responding to any work-at-home offer and to be on guard if a company:
· Doesn’t offer regular salaried employment. · Promises huge profits and big part-time earnings.
· Uses personal testimonials that aren’t fully attributed.
· Requires money up-front before telling you how the plan operates.
· Assures you of guaranteed markets and a huge demand for your work.
· Tells you that no experience is necessary.
Consumers who have been victimized by a work-at-home scam should contact their local BBB, state attorney general’s office, state consumer protection agency and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.
