Did you @Joe builder ever decide about them? I saw something that was interesting on their website this week and tried to call. No answer so I emailed them. They answer emails very promptly, but have never answered their phone after 6-8 tries and claim it's a glitch in their phone. The company registration does use the address on their website, but their computer location for answering the emails is in Vancouver, BC, Canada. They said they work with banks so they can sell at a low price. They also would not do a running video. Part of me thinks this may be legit but the larger part is telling me to run as fast as I can.
If that's not enough to convince you it's a fraud then you need some professional help to reprogram your gullibility. It's off the chart!

Legit or not (not),I would not deal with them on the basis of them displaying bad manners at the very least.
Go and dip your head in a bucket of ice and buy elsewhere or else you’re going to have a disastrous Christmas sir.
Advice meant respectfully.You’ve done the right thing by requesting the advice on this forum,but you need to heed it.

from the Wilmont Chamber of Commerce that took awhile to get back to my email.....
"I have tried looking into this company and at this time I do not think that they are a legit company as no one around this area has heard of them. I am not 100% positive but that is what I am thinking. Thank you!"

No. I wrote them before even posting on this thread. They're a town of a few hundred people, it took awhile to get back to me. As I said in my post. Learn to read *******.


Welcome to the Forums.

Since you are new here you'll get a slide on that personal attack - once. We here at HEF are not a free-for-all forum that allows personal attacks and insults on other members. If that is what you are used to then by all means do not let the door hit you on the way out.

This thread has run it's course. These scam sites are ran by people outside the US and in one particular case wreaked havoc on the forum. No reason to keep it open.
