Oh where to begin with these guys. Initially we were introduced and met and saw several presentations on a Software company with several platforms and supposed holders of a Software patent that was going to make them "BIGGER THAN GOOGLE" exact words. I was getting a bargain, along with others in my circle and had an opportunity to get in a 50 cents a share before they would go to $2 a share the following week. In return my amount invested was to be safe and earn me a sound monthly return at 8% with an option to stay in but more than likely the company was to be bought for MILLIONS of dollars of which I would get my split. That being said i recieved a check for one or two months for my interest to never ever get another. Everyone else in my cirle never got their interest check according to them due to not having any money. The company format had changed several times from buying re-furbished goods and selling them to foreign countries, network advertising website with suppossed contract in place with aarp, ibm, obama administrative team etc. At one point we were doing a snap card that consumers could use and get discounts from local community and we get a portion of every transaction and it would save towns like detroit etc. and Millions of users and contracts were in place. The company name it'self has changed numerous of time from Snap Cash, Integrated Holdings, Next Holdings Inc. World Wide Busines, Provide Management World Wide - PMWW. Long story short over the past 5 years they have bragged about raising millions of dollars and have never once had a product or service and spending it on themselves, borrowing - paying a little interest and then never talking again. TYPICAL PONZI and This isn't the First offense by Jim Turbes or Chuck Hinninkamp. After doing research the State of MN has taken action against them and there are numerious complaints and judgements against them from previous investments. They have been creating investment vehicles as far back as 20years. Anyone that knows them says to be careful as they are not credible and have a bad rap sheet. If you have similar relationship blow up this blog and leave name and numbers so we can be in contact and do something about it.

you failed to mention Sheryl Brown as the backdrop of these fake organizations. She has been a fixture since the beginning and has a past of her own.

Very insightful! I don't know why you bothered to create an account and write a coment to support a company without stating any facts or providing your relationship to or experience with this company. It's pretty obvious you are a part of or raised funds for this investment vehicle. Please share your experience and supply some content if you like but let's be truthful OK.

me personally - no! appears they have no location presently, chuck - charles Hinnenkamp changes his number monthly and Jim doesn't pick up his phone because he's simply a fund raiser with no clue as to what he's selling. are you a victim of this group also? can email me directly and we can talk if you like - power in numbers... would love his new number if you have it. Cheryl Brown is shady and won't offer it as she's in just as deep as they are.

I understand there are few individuals that like this guy and are sticking up for him or maybe this is chuck himself? how about sharing and saying something? You dealt with him (IN WHAT REGARD?) Did you invest? did you get it back? what was the name of the company? What was the product this time, why did you come by this blog - were you searching his name or were you told to look for it and write something nice with no details, etc. really folks don't bother to comment unless you are adding value - my above complaint factual and true.

To answer your questions - Yes i am an investor and like many others lost money - time and many nights of sleep over this relationship - if your curious as to what is going on read my complaint again i think it's pretty clear the way it's written up and should be no suprise to anyone that has dealt with him. Finding his name when searching Ponzi is very appropriate. Should have known better as Ponzi came from the master called Chales Ponzi back in the day - funny how that works. May be a great person on an individual level - but that would be about it.

I figured as much on a personal level too but some people on this post are obviously part of the new PONZI - eventually his luck will run out and if it does not I cannot imagine he is too proud of what he has built or who he has in his life now. I know for a fact all of his brothers and sister have dis-owned him along with his ex and own children. A man without family and prayer is no man at all...

The real news here is that we were all told we were shareholders... but in order for that to be the case you have to have an idea, product or service, licensing requirements etc. All of which James Turdes, Chuck Hinnenkamp and Mrs. Brown never obtained nore had the INTENTION to obtain.

Think this guy has a History - this is all public information folks - do your research. - there others on top of this in the name of CHUCK instead of Charles. Pretty impressive resume!

want to tag onto a lawsuit and get your $ back, let me know because it's in the process and I have 8 members - I know they ripped off a lot more "INVESTORS" than that. Cheaper by the dozen as they say!

A little FYI for all you folks that have been scammed by these guys. Jim Turbes is now starting a new investment model under Beyond Expectations. Looks legit as far as actually have a license to collect along with the Annuity Website I checked. Not saying he's doing anything wrong but want all to be aware of his history. He did have his own website at one point but now I cannot locate it. But it's Jim Turbes and Beyond Expectations. It could be totally legit just and "Investor beware post" due to track record and personal dealings with him.

FYI for anyone still following, i did get another email from someone who found my information useful. not sure if they are at it again with another name, company, idea? Or if it's an old investment that someone still has ill feelings about. If you know or hear anything on this STAY AWAY these individuals have a shady past, are unethical in what they have done and are not reputable.

Chuck Hinnenkamp is a scoundrel, through and through. I knew it from the first time he showed a profit and loss statement to my boyfriend that was investing in his business. As a business owner, his P&L did not make sense to me. Like most cons, he was able to talk a good line. He has taken horrible advantage of people, and I can only hope that someday, he has to pay the piper.

I was a girlfriend and co worker of Chuck's...late 90's...during YourNet.

I eventually recognized something was off with YourNet. Investors congregated to our apartment at Chasewood apartments in Minnetonka...on the Hopkins/Tonka boarder.

He wound up being abusive. And putting me down in front of ALL office people. Shame on them for not defending me.

He was having an affair with an investor and sales rep for YourNet, Suzanne, who was a realtor as well.

I was also the liaison between Chuck and the lawyers he hired to get things going. I don't remember the firm's name but made a num bcc Dr of suggestions that Chuck never followed.

I didn't know what a ponzie scam was when I worked for him. I found out later. He's the essence of one. The two IT guys and I finally came to our naieve senses and realized we were working for a predator. He had no product to sell, but money kept pouring in, which he used to be big man on campus...living in the hotel in Shakopee where his office was and charging all living expenses to the company.

When I shared with his partner Bill I knew exactly what was going on, I was fired.

Chuck's family became estranged from him. They invested in this YourNet after having lost $$ before, only to find out it was another scam.

That's all there is to say. So much more happened, but that's the crux.

I meet Chuck a few years ago; they had an office in Edina at the time. Snap-Cash wanted to buy my company and offer the service we supply to a wide range of customers, AARP, GM….. but could not come up with the money to close the deal. They also bought old movies and streamed them online for customers that paid a flat fee per month. There’s no question Chuck has ADHD and Chuck didn’t treat Cheryl Brown very well. Looking at the business plan (s) I would not have invested in the company. Chuck could talk a good story, but you need to peel back the onion a little, to discover the company would not success and Chuck would never give up controlling interest for any investment.

I also decided to Google Chuck's name after hearing about an "investment" that an aqaintance of mine made with him. At the time, I believe it was an investment in SnapCash, which from everything that I have found, no longer exists. The amount of money given to him was substantial, and I now fear that it is simply gone. In passing, I asked about the investment a few months ago, and my friend said that there is no documentation, no contact about the investment, and that getting a hold of Chuck is nearly impossible. As with the initial post on this board, there was a promise of a huge return. We all know that some investments take time, but looking at this history here (granted, some of the court cases are of a personal matter), there seems to be a history of failing to pay, misleading individuals, and what does look like a type of Ponzi scheme: taking from some, giving or promising to others, and pocketing the money for his own gain. Innocent until proven guilty, but it seems that he has been guilty before. I hope and pray for my friend, who coudl really use the money in the near future (onset of a sickness).

I have been contacted many times by this company. They say they will find a way to reduce your fee. Stay far away, it is a full three ring scam.

I worked for YourNet many years ago. I can tell you alot of money was taken in and spent, but I never saw any product go out. I had an argument and was fired. When I threatened to go to the SEC with what little I knew (it was observation, not proof), I was suddenly given severance and sent on my way. I found this article by querying Hinnenkamp's name, wondering if his luck ran out and whether or not he was in prison over Ponzi schemes yet. To ferdenfranky, not a great person on an individual level. Actually, he was quite abusive. Charming in public, but abusive in private.

All I was doing was looking up the definition of a ponzi scheme and I came across this. It really surprised me to see Chucks name. No I am not an investor. He dealt with me on a personal matter. Are you an investor or have lost money? I just came across this by accident and am curious as to what is going on.

I dealt with Chuck Hinnenkamp a couple years ago and didn't have any problem. He has a very good business sense and I thought he was headed in the right direction. The other 2 I have never heard of. How are they involved in this company? Are they partners with Hinnenkamp? Last time I talked to Hinnenkamp was about a year ago.
