They are so fake so hopefully you have not gotten taken like a lot of others. I have found out that CLA are not cashing their checks right at the bank. What you need to do is go and get a trace of your cheque and money order from where ever you had it made and check to see if the cheque was actually deposited into an account that has CLA business attached to it. I found out by phonebusters that you could go back to the bank and ask for your money back because they did not follow cheque cashing rules and regulations if the cheque was cashed or deposited into an account that was not their CLA business account. My cheque was not cashed properely and either was my friends and we are in the process of getting our money back from the bank. Also there is a investigation happaning now with the rcmp in toronto and my friends husband has been working with them giving them our emails and any names and info that we have. If you have any info that you might think that will be helpfull please email me back at hugybearno69@yahoo.ca. If you have dealt with this company and was told to send the money anywhere outside the toronto area please let me know and also other names that have been used so far we know of a blaine dunlop,brad thompson which we found out are the same person just using different voices.

Hi Krusty,\nSorry I can't help too much, I don't know anything about this co. other than visiting your weblink above, but they seem to have TOO MANY brand-name products to me, so I am guessing that they are knockoffs, but!\n\nYou can visit the Chinese Ministry of Commerce here:\n\nhttp://english.mofcom.gov.cn/  \n\nor the Aus branch:\n\nhttp://au2.mofcom.gov.cn/\n\nand they will be able to help you further. Believe me, if they ARE knockoffs the Chinese Govt will take action pretty quickly!\n\nSome years ago, before the end of British Hong Kong, my business was one of only a handfull of Aus businesses listed as suitable for Intl trade with Chinese businesses directly, and they took Intl trade VERY seriously even back then -- I am talking about Intelligence reports, the full deal! Now that they are trading openly with the west, they don't want any backyard traders ruining their reputation, so you will get an honest answer from them.\n\nGood luck with the deal,\nTopcat47

Listen, I received a check a couple of days ago too. I took it to a check cashing place and asked them if it was a real check and they said yes and cashed it for me. However I didn't understand the letter very well. I called the number several times with no answer. Finally the next day I called again and a man answered with an accent and told me to go cash the check and call him back and he would tell me the next step to take.  I was scared so I notified a friend of mine in Canada and he told me that it is a scam. Now I'm not sure what to do...

I checked two major business databases, and this company is not registered.\n\nIf this is some sort of "employment opportunity" or "money making venture," I would stay away because they are not legitimate.

I got one of those last month - from someplace in Canada, although the bank in question was in Idaho or North Dakota or someplace like that. It is a "snail mail" version of those emails that go around trying to convince you that you've won the Irish Lottery or something. I did some research online and this is a fraud. And since it was sent through the mail, it is actually mail fraud. The website I read said that I should take the letter to  my postmaster and report it - but I've been too lazy to do that. The post office is closed by the time I get home, and only open till noon on Saturdays. I feel bad though for those, especially the elderly, who buy into this. The letter I received actually said I was to send the entire $4grand or whatever it was back to them to pay for "administrative costs". Yea, right. And in the meantime, they get my banking information from the check I send them and they can steal my identity!

there are some scammers.  make sure they are backed by the cftc and the nfa.  snc investments is a good company.  sncfx.com.  its a risky market but its possible.

There may be such a company. If I were you I would not believe a word of it. If something sounds too good to be true it probably is. Good luck friend. I wish you well. Nobody unless it is a charitable organization will help you with credit problems for free.

Yes they are real but no you can't pay bills with it. it is an exclusive use card limited to items within the catalog which they will send you once you have already signed up(take your money then show you the goods) if your credits that hard up and your looking to repair it and you got some money to throw away go for it.... if your looking for a normal, visa / mastercard, this is not it!

Studly is correct, you will actually be wasting your time.\n\nWhen you dispute any account on your report that you believe to be inaccurate or unverifiable then the CRA will investigate that item and reply to you with a copy of your credit file and a cover letter showing the results of the investigation. This will take approx. 30 days.\n\nYou will have 3 possible outcomes:\n\n1)They will delete the item because the CRA was unable to verify it.\n\n2) They will say "After investigating this item CRA has verified that it is reporting correctly.\n\n3) They will say "This account has been updated to show(negative or positive outcome)\n\nIf they verify it may say in the remarks of the account that "this item was verified in February 2006"\n\nIf an item is verified you can still dispute it but you will have to provide some type of additional documentation(depending on what you are disputing) to get the CRA to re-investigate.\n\nAlso putting a statement on your credit record explaining any item(s), your situation, whatever, is completey worthless. It may make you feel better that you can explain something to a potential lender but they will ignore it.\n\nWhen you apply you will most likely receive an almost instant decision because of FICO credit scoring. If you are at or above their minimum score you will be approved. If you are below you will not.\n\nGood Luck

I checked two business databases (Hoovers, and the Business and Company Resource Center) and this company is not listed, which means they are not registered.\n\nThis company is not registered, which means that they are 99% likely to be illegitimate.\n\nSounds like a scam to me!

It's not real. Please don't fall for it. If you want to mess with the spammer though, may I recommend a site I frequent.....

You should be very careful not to give them any info until you contact their "sponsors" to see if they are real or not.\nThey have contact info on their website. Maybe you can try their local better business bureau, to see if they are real or not. Good luck!

If you bought it at a flea market, ofcourse its fake. If you bought in a really fancy store, where atleast one clerk has a French accent and it cost more than $200, it probably is real.

You serious? Have you seen the APR they charge? People like these and the Vanquis card shouldn't be allowed to do such a thing. I'd get a loan if I was you!\n\nBut seriously, companies like this don't actually have websites. I've had application forms thru the post but they never give any info for online stuff. No idea who they got my address off but they go straight in the bin.

Oh!  Another dragonfly!\n\nNo I haven't used them, and yes, I'd be worried about all of that data because you don't want a bunch of bozos pulling your credit report and driving your credit score down.  I used CTX Mortgage and they were good.  They are their own lender so their margins are bigger than many banks because they are lending out their own money.  Or try www.naca.com if it's your first home.
