This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

This is a major scam. Their policies and procedures are unethical and truly a rip-off. Buyers and investors beware. They claim to be saving people's debt situation or circumstance. However, it's how they pursue
to obtain the money and use it. Basically, they try to get you to pay out $20, 000 to $50, 000 into this business. Then they use your money to negotiate with the creditors and the debtors with the money as a "shell-game". They also are using the " Better Business On-line Certification" as an endorsement of good business practice. This endorsement is not valid. This organization takes $275.00 upfront and does not tell you that it's non-refundable or sign a document upfront prior to getting the money. A major class action suit should be pursued. My suspicion is that this organization is ripping-off millions and millions of people three ways: 1) debtors, 2) investors, 3) creditors. Stay away from this organization "Global Fortune Network" !

[protected], [protected], FAZ([protected], customerservice@globalfortunenework. This company's representative, Michael Shaw, supposed to be a Senior Account executive, caslled and pressured me into believing they were real. Should have hung up on them as I started to. But I listened to him and finally decided to give it a try. But I changed my mind after getting a chance to look them up on the internet and had it confirmed from JustAnswer that they were scamming me. I called my credit card company and reported it to them. They said I would have to wait until I received my next bill to try and get it reversed. I declined to sign the documents they sent byDocuSign. I also reported it to ONline Business Bureau. I don't know whether or notI will receive my money back but I really don't wnt them to keep collecting money from my account every month. I did not contact-they must have gotten my information from one othe job sites I was searching in my job hunt. After I decline to accept their documents, I got three calls on my phone and three on my mobile which I didn't answer. I haven;t checked today since I've been using the computer at my mother's. That phone number is [protected]. I just want my money back and to see to it that this company doesn't profit off of anyone else and If possible put them out of business.

Several months ago GFN called me several times encouraging me to become affiliated with them. They kept insisting that the business was guaranteed to return 125% within 90 days. To make a long story short, After investing $150 to start up, they gave me no realistic help with marketing unless I agreed to buy leads from them and utilize their call center. Stupidly I sent them $5000. For several weeks they did call me to let me know how my account was going. after 9 months there was not a single sale. As per their so called guarantee, they did add more leads a couple of times, with no success. Then about a month ago they stopped calling and they do not answer my calls, e-mails etc. I even sent a certified letter which was returned. I am afraid they are out of business and have run off with my money. If there is any way to get any of this back, please advise. One of my phone calls was routed to a company called "Economic Freedom", which also has failed to return my calls.

I love Global Fortune Network. Why? They helped make me the happy man I am today. How? they got me off the couch and into my home office where I now earned $135, 4703.78 just last year. I followed their simple, straight-forward, award-winning advice and soon enough the checks started rolling in. Was it extremely easy? No. Was it better than digging a ditch? Much.

I was taken by this group and their associates for $8000. I'm so embarrassed that I was taken because I felt that I had always been a skeptic and cautious, but I fell for their very well done scam hook line and sinker. I would love to see justice for all (and my money back) but since this all happened in June 2011. I feel it's a lost cause. It's just depressing and sickening that these ### can get away with this and ruin peoples lives.

The same thing happened to me but I lost close to $20, 000. I used a company called CR Consumer Resources and they helped me get my money back that was charged to my credit cards. If you need help and want to get your money back, I suggest you call them. They're real nice people and work hard to help you. The website is www.crconsumerresources.com. Their number is [protected] I got all my money back thanks to Jay Rosen, the owner and his staff. Very trustworthy and nice people. I'm so glad this nightmare is over!

I too was pressured into using GFN as a way to increase my income - not only did a salesman (Cole) state we shared the same faith and principles but he personally guaranteed the 125% return within 2 months! A friend made out like many, she invested over $20, 000 and DID receive checks for a while (spring/summer of 2011) - now she receives nothing and her contact #'s are either no longer in service or just ring and ring (just like myself). I invested over $25, 000 (along with Web Media and ADM Ventures and Precision Data Corp - all of these companies told me point blank they were the blogger, web designers, and tax pros; also each contact explained they were my business development managers; NOT. Once these scammers had my money; couldn't contact anyone! My credit cards are maxed and while my Visa and MasterCard customer service departments are trying to help; they also can't contact anyone. GFN used Apollo and Sea-hawk (?) for the money xfer' these 2 and the main culprits continue to charge my credit cards and the phone numbers associated with their bill is not valid! I AM disabled, I am the victim of divorce fraud and my ex hiding income/cash, so I am a bit panicked! It's not right these companies trade on your faith, life situations, physical problems by stating I won't have to worry about money anymore and I would own my rent home by this March with the money return on my investments. Now I barely get by due to paying off credit cards! I am personally looking into a lawsuit (not a class action) in order to receive my investments back but also to compensate me for the extreme stress this causes which in turn aggravates my rare genetic disorder! I'm sick of worrying how I can pay for my prescriptions due to these companies withdrawing funds I did NOT approve! My cards are literally maxed - before Cole Jennings calls I was paying down cards (also a divorce problem - had to pay for my son's college even though these fund were mine and granted to me by my son's father, his step-father closed the acct!). I know many others are hurting from GFN and company! Maybe with enough complaints we will get the FBI/AZ state patrol or DA's office to engage!

I GOT MY MONEY BACK! I also signed on which cost me roughly $8, 500 and was told that this was the only money I would have to pay. After doing some research 3 months into the supposed program I came across these complaints. I got in contact with my lawyer who referred me to a company who got me my money back within about 2 months after them taking my case. The company did NOT charge me any upfront fees and did what they promised “FIAD Services” out of Pompano Beach FL their website is “fiadcs.com” the guy I worked with was Luke Daniels email “ldaniels@fiadservices.com” or phone [protected] ext. 222 all in all they were great gentleman/company to work with he was sometimes hard to get a hold of but he did what he promised nice to know there are still some honest people out there. They also added me to a list they are putting together to file a class action lawsuit against these thieves. THANK YOU! -Terri & George H

There were a few others that I know of that were arrested also. Stephen Huth and Kevin Hewitt.
This is the link to the arrest:

http://www.azcentral.com/community/scottsdale/articles/2011/12/02/20111202arrested-elaborate-telemarketing-fraud-operation.html

I filed a complaint with the Attorney General on 2/22/11 after feeling like this was a scam after 1st getting involved with GFN on 1/26/2011. The reply I got back from was:
We know that this outcome is probably frustrating to you, but please understand that we are simply prohibited by law from representing individual consumers. The Attorney General's office however, does bring cases against businesses that violate Arizona consumer protection statuses. That is why the information in your complaint is so valuable.

Maybe we should start a group of who wants to pursue getting these guys by listing our email addresses to directly contact one another? Any ideas?

Guys they were arrested. And now we have to make noise! Everybody on this forum who has been scammed MUST file a complaint with the Arizona AG! The authorities told me that the more people we have complaining to the AG the better their case will be against these thieves. Also there is always the possibility for the AG's office to file a class action lawsuit against them on our behalf! But only if there is a large volume of complaints!
PLEASE STOP WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING AND CHECK OUT the post by "scammed 23, 000" and file disputes at the places listed there. BUT AT LEAST WITH THE AG. THIS IS OUR ONLY CHANCE! YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF!

I felt like I was scamed. I invested in $ 40K plus for leads. The mktg guy George Alberts was very convincing and sounded so honstly, so i trustd him and others who were involved in GFN. I don't have any money, and hav been out of work for a while. He told me to use credit cards because this will be a good investment, and the loans for this investment are good. He said i would start to get paid w/in 60 days. He said i would make tons of money plus residual income and in the worst case, i still would make 125% return on my investment. I never get any weekly follow up call on Friday as promised, except the first Friday when customer service agent simply mentioned there was no pending application, and that was all she said. I wanted to follow up with that marketing guy but his direct line is no longer working (or he never answers my calls) and the phone number gets forwarded to customer service line but no one answers the phone call for hours. My cell phone bill went up like crazy last month because of this long hold on phone line, even though I was never able to talk to any live person. They didn't reply to my email message. Now, I found this fraud/scam complaint messages...My heart is crushing now...If I call banks and credit card companies for scams, will my credit card debts be forgiven? Has anyone had any positive experience with getting the money back? Please let me know how you dealt to get your monay back from GFN or resolve the credit card debts...Please email to me: blueskylove74@yahoo.com I would really appreciate it.

I also am having issues with GFN. I purchased an advertisement package through them for telemarketing leads and was supposed to get $200 per person signed on plus a percentage of the monthly payments those individuals make to the debt settlements. I was told that after 3 months, if I did not make 125% back, I would be refunded the leads. Today is the third month on the dot and I have tried to contact GFN via email and phone (over the past month). Unfortunately their listed phone number is no longer in service and no one has answered my emails. Very problematic for any affiliate that is trying to contact the company. So I contacted Mrs. Kathy Martinjak and spoke to her about the issue and talked to my bank about a dispute. Fortunately my bank has the option for merchant disputes where I did not receive what I was promised, so they will be charging GFN my money. Since this issue crosses State lines, it falls into Federal Jurisdiction and IS considered Fraud. I urge anyone that has this sort of issue to press your claim with Mrs. Martinjak or the others above. This is very illegal and hurts more people than one would think.

Well, I also joined them and bought some "qualified" leads which they guaranteed to make 125% profit in 90 days. So far after 9 months I have 0 return and they will not return calls or 3-mails. When I called, my call was routed to Economic Freedom. I am afraid they are out of business and I have lost $5000. I don't know if their so called guarantee is valid any more. If anyone knows how to get in touch with them now, please let me know. My trust in them is shot!

They are all a big scam, dispute with the bank and tell them it is a scam. You did not get your product as it was sold to you...There are 1000;s of people across this country with your story and it must stop. do these things if you want to fight for your money and get it back.

Investigating fraud in Arizona
These two do answer there phones and except your email. So the more complaints the better for justice. They are presently watching and collecting complaints on the ###. I have spoken to both of them. The attorney generals office sends a letter to the company that you are complaining about and then after you summit a complaint they then send a letter which the ### have to respond to, so this is very important

The Comptroller of the Currency aka (OCC)

COMPTROLLER OF THE CURRENCY
P.O. BOX 4503

They are aware of BANK CARD EMPIRE WITH AN address of
5025 N. Central Avenue, Ste 637
Phoenix, Az 85012

This is the only way we are going to resolve this in this country, you have to submit the complaint with documentation. It is now time for us to take this step so we can bring light to this horrible scam that is taking so much money from all of us by credit card scams.
Make sure you use BANK CARD EMPIRE as the MOTHER company in your complaint or documentation. Otherwise it is going to get lost in the system. Just state that this is one of the afilliate companies that scammed you and that the ATTORNEY GENERAL IN ARIZONA AND THE POSTAL FRUAD INPECTOR are investigating and collecting information on all the related companies that are associated with Bank Card Empire.
