DW Scott Financial reviews and complaints
This company is very persistent, rude and difficult because they do not take &NO& for an answer
This company is very persistent, rude and difficult because they do not take "NO" for an answer. They keep calling to try to get money from you off of your credit card by bribing you, cajoling you, making you look stupid because you do not want to make money their way. Plus they are very sneaky and conniving with their practices because they know the debt game and use it to bilk a person in debt out of more money by convincing you will make so much more if you join their team. This is when you are already working on it anyway.
took my money as an affiliate
they called me to be an affiliate and I would make up the money I just spent with them
$10, 000. Well I received 2 commission checks and 4 others. All since 12/09/.
They do not answer emails nor does one of the big shots ans his cell (bus. phone).
They still owe me and I want my money back .
Shocked to hear bankcard empire charges against leslie mersky dismissed...and why is no one mentioning this...hopping mad...and posting all over?
The new generation was economic freedom corp. with exact same scam, and then they closed w/ no forwarding anything and are now dba My choice business services in Las Vegas and Wy.
A Mike Reynolds mentioned above was also the scammer that got to a victim via EFC. See the news reports in some of my other postings on Economic freedom corp. And do not believe a word they say about not being EFC morphed as it is the same owner and dispute dept. staff at very least, and exact same scam!
No time wasted anymore. Small spud for sure. Don't think he's a shark. Minnow...yes!
I certainly do. I haven't wasted any more time. Having all my senses intact, including humor, I can readily spot a "joke" when I see one. Thanks!
No-Cheaters Allowed,
Why haven't you recovered your money from D.W. Scott? Would you like some assistance in the recovery process in order to try to recover your money from D.W. Scott?

Business Recovery Services
More than a year after paying D W Scott, have not received a penny.
Nora, I hope you realize that Brian is trolling for business on this site, so don't waste your time.
Norasivle,
Sure. Sounds like a plan. When will you call me? After all, the telephone number is on the website.

Brian-
Before I provide a detailed proposal I would need to know more about your intended business model currently and projectionally. This development will provide high end architecture, functionality, organic optimization, e-commerce capability, security, content, graphical elements, granular reporting and more. It would be customized specifically for you and your enterprise. No templates! Further you would be afforded a renowned team for each area. Not a one man band who does this in his spare guest room. who will likely hold you hostage for update fees, inflated unsecured hosting (like your Go Daddy site ugh!)
From there you will have the ability and be provided the support to update/change your site yourself. No added fees. This will provide you the type of web presence and ecommerce revenues you are absolutely NOT tapping now. Remember the Yugo/Mercedes example. You will abandon your Yugo and step into the 21st century like a viable business. And make money you are not capturing. And provide your customers, current and potential, a friendly and formidable way to do business with you. Again I hate to beat a dead horse, but your internet presence is shoddier than most of the Biz Ops out there. Really bad bro.
On average a semmingly suitable project would range from $4, 000-$8, 500. Half upfront and half on completion. I would be willing to carry the second half for 12 months at 9% simple int. Plus YOU must be involved in the development process. 2 meetings 1-1.5 hours each. Conference calls 2-3 15 mins. Approval session 1-2 hours. 6 month evaluation post-launch, 12 month post launch evaluation.
Caveat: In the event a potential proposal is complete I guarantee there will be NO saying NO. And the close could be relentlessly hard. Why? Because once the facts are on the table it's always clearly obvious. A 12month performance guarantee doesn't hurt either. Plus having one of our programmers hack your site right before your eyes should be an eye opening impetus. A Go Daddy site takes under 5 minutes to hack, snake, delete or alter information. I'll show you...
Interested?
These people keep calling my house and they are rude rude rude. I have no idea who they even are or why the heck they would call my house and be nasty. Stay away from these people. When I call the back the number to report them, they literally hang up on me each time. Fraud, scam, RUN RUN RUN
Norasivle,
You seem to be very worried about the appearance of Business Recovery Services (BRS) and its website. I guess that’s your right. However, it is surprising that you don’t seem to be concerned at all about BRS’ well-documented effectiveness when it comes to assisting its clients in recovering money. Do BRS’ clients pay BRS money so that their workers can sit in swank, cushy offices like the people who sell these ill-fated business opportunities in the first place? Or, do BRS’ clients pay money so that BRS can assist them in their recovery efforts? I’m betting on the latter.
Maybe the appearance of BRS and its website are more important to you than BRS’ effectiveness in recovering money. That’s your opinion, and that’s your prerogative. However, I’m betting that recovering money is more important to my clients than appearances. After all, very few of my clients live in the Phoenix area, so they never see my office. Therefore, I’m betting that the fact that BRS has assisted its clients in recovering over $1, 300, 000 (documented recoveries only, as there very well could be more out there) is more important to BRS’ clients than the appearance of (1) BRS’ office or (2) BRS’ website. It is intuitively obvious that keeping a tight, efficient budget allows BRS to offer its products at a lower price than if BRS’ overhead were running wild, as you are suggesting BRS does to “improve its image.”
I will agree with you that BRS’ location is not the best in the world. However, it doesn’t have to be, because BRS’ location is not important to BRS’ clients. As for the website, BRS actually offered you an opportunity to design a website that would capture the very same improvements that you refer to in this commentary. It’s ironic that you didn’t mention this fact in your editorial. Unfortunately, you declined BRS’ offer to develop a website proposal for BRS. I’m guessing that the reason for your decision to decline this offer is because you don’t have the talent to follow through on your suggestions. So, you should either “Put-Up” or “Shut-Up
BRS hereby extends the same offer for you to design a proposal for a BRS website. Are you up for the challenge? Or, are you too afraid to come into BRS’ neighborhood?

100% VERIFIED SCAM, READ IF THEY HAVE CALLED YOU!
So, where do I start...
They called me earlier today from phone number [protected] and I didn't answer. They called me again a few hours later, and I answered, as I'd done my research (googled the phone number) and found out what they were all about. So they go into their sales pitch, trying to make their "oppoortunity" sound great by throwing fancy titles at you, "celebrating" in the background about new clients, when it's really just a bunch of loud people listening to music and laughing at whatever nonsense is being said in the background.
So I get this call, I answer it, knowing it'll be a "pay us for a home based business" scam. I listen to the recording they have, about 4 and a half minutes long, and it starts repeating. I hang up. They call back, but this time it's not the girl who called me the first time, it's a gruff man named "Fred" which is most likely a made up name anyway. He throws his sales pitch at me and I play dumb for a few minutes. When he realizes I'm not some naive or stupid person who's going to fall for the scam, he hangs up very abruptly, mid sentence. I call back with the intention of asking them to remove me from their list, and whoever's there picks up the phone and hangs it up immediately. I call back again. This time, the girl who originally called me answers, acting as if she doesn't see my number on her caller ID, and asks how she can help me. I politely say I just called back after being hung up on and she says "I'm sorry, I must have accidentally disconnected you." I tell her I'd like to be removed from their list, and she hangs up on me. I call back again. This time "Fred" answers, and says "we took you off the list, if you call back again it's harassment" and hangs up again.
And now I'm writing this report. If I call back again, which I will, I hope Fred answers again, because it's not harrassment. They are scammers, and when you let them know that you will research the company, they hang up on you and say YOU are harrassing THEM!
DO NOT BUY INTO THIS COMPANY'S SCAM. They want to put you IN debt to try and sucker you into buying their program to get OUT of debt. They operate under many other names and there are many other reports about them.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I LOVE THIS COMPANY! I MADE 5 MILLION!
I was also scammed by this company. I have a backgroung in finance and as the economy was plunging I thought this would be a good opportunity to help people. I understand how conermer credit counseling works and I thought I could help people with there budgets when people were losing there jobs and going upside down in there homes. Many people are spending all of there time looking for employment and feel hopeless about there financial situation. That is were I thought credit counseling, and mortgage motification would help people from losing everything they have - they scammed me for more than $2000.00 and countless hours of phone calls. I did take this businesss seriously(passing out flyers, business cards, etc). I was unemployed at the time and really wanted to grow this business and help people that are suffering so bad with there financial situations and looking losing there home. Such a devious scam in such a terrible time in this economy! These people need to refund there scam money to all affiliate!

Sorry for above message. ComplaintBoard doesn't account for quotation marks apparently. So the word between "e; and & quote; is the word intended.
For example: So you are known as "e;reyesone"e;
Get it?

I shamefully worked for DW Scott. I worked fairly high up. They are a 100% scam. It is very hard to get money back as they are criminals who hide behind the tecnnicalities of law. My guess is that they had you sign "paperwork". My guess further is they rushed it..."Fax back to us immediately." If you read it carefully you will see you have legally authorized them to charge a credit card.
The only real way to get your money back is to go through your credit card(s) company. Contact their fraud department and explain the situation. Most likely they will have knowledge of DW Scott already. These criminals do not want to lose their ability to charge on credit cards.
Yes DW Scott baits people in to spend more money by giving you a little back to make it look like returns. They are not a Ponzi scheme persay. Merely a complete scam. How much did you pay them for starters? How much did they send you as "dividends" ? (my guess is very little) Then you sent them additonal monies. What were the "names" (likely fake) that the people used?
Thank you for your service to our country. So, sorry for your loss and experience. It is a dirty dirty business. They will con widows, single moms, disabled, desperate, anybody
Disabled Veteran and out another $5, 500 dollars. I did get a few checks in the beginning. They must have run a Ponzi scheme paying a few dollars out to the people already in
from those just coming into the program. Anybody know how to contact these people or "run them down?'
I TOO WORKED FOR DW SCOTT FINANCIAL AT ONE TIME. TO BE PERFECTLY HONEST, THEY HAVE A GREAT PROGRAM AS FAR AS THE DEBT SETTLEMENT AND LOAN MODIFICATION END OF THINGS. UNFORTUNATELY, THEIR GREED LED THEM TO BEGIN MARKETING A "BIZ OP" OR HOME BASED BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY. THAT WAS PRETTY MUCH THE END OF ANY INTEGRITY THAT THEY HAD. I MANAGED TO GET OUT BECAUSE I WANTED NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT INDUSTRY. WHEN IT COMES TO PERSONAL FINANCES, A COMPANY SHOULD MAINTAIN INTEGRITY. HOW CAN A COMPANY DO THAT BY TURNING A VALUABLE SERVICE INTO A MONEY MAKING SCAM. I AM TRULY SORRY FOR THOSE THAT HAVE GOTTEN INVOLVED, BUT PLEASE DON'T LET IT DOWNGRADE YOUR OPINION OF DEBT SETTLEMENT OR ANY OTHER SUCH INDUSTRIES. LET THE COMPANIES SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. I HAPPEN TO KNOW FOR AN ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY THAT THEY ARE DIRECTLY INVOLVED WITH OSC AND WHILE OSC RUNS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TYPE OF BUSINESS, THERE SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN ANY CORRELATION BETWEEN BIZ OPS AND PERSONAL FINANCIAL MATTERS. GOOD LUCK!
So did I made good money there as a closer
I signed on as an affiliate for over $2000. I am raising my grandson and explained to the agent that I really didn't have the money to do this unless it would really work. Of course, I was assured that all would be great and that I would at least get 125% of my investment. I told my mother about my new endeaver and she was wanting help getting out of debt, so she contacted them. Now I have not been paid any of my commissions and my mother is also out over $2000 from fees she has paid. DO NOT GET INVOLVED WITH THIS COMPANY. My mother is 78 years old and on a fixed income, I am out money that I could use for paying my bills that come with once again raising a child. We have both called them and now we are both contacting the better business bureau and our state attorney general with complaints.
No Cheaters Allowed-
You will not see your money again. I am sorry. Ashamedly, I worked for this scam operation and others. I was on the "inside", fairly high up. They are run by felons and degenerates. Eventually, they will cease doing business. Either they will feel the "heat" closing in or they will be raided and disbanded. I have seen this numerous times. In any case, they will fold up and move on to another similarly structured scam. Like roaches they will scurry away in the darkness. These criminals do NOT use their real names. In the end, there will be no money to be found. They do NOT deposit it in bank accounts...believe me.
You can contact the Attorney General's office in Arizona to file a complaint. This is where they operate from. This may help expedite investigations. But 99.9% certainty you will not see your money again. Sorry. I truly am...
I paid D W Scott my hard earned money, and have not received one penny. They set up some young girl to call me when I complained, and according to her, I have four accounts and they're just waiting for the debtors to pay their money. This is since May of 2010. Not a dime have I received for my money.
WHERE ARE THE LEGAL AUTHORITIES ? ARE THEY SLEEPUNG ? ARE THEY BEIMG PAID OFF TO LOOK THE OTHER WAY ? HOW SAD THIS IS,
