Was exact same scenario as I just read from man's report. I'm not even sure I remember how I was first contacted or saw advertisement (was phishing on text msg or add in an email). No, was asked for initial investment to find out HOW to make $ online like the young people shown in advertisement I believe was appx $75 along with providing email and phone number information. Was contacted by email to return call to see if I was a good fit for Program. Talked to 3 different people through approval peoscess to check if personal needs, character and determination would work well within thier training process. Once accepted had to invest another $7500 for traini ng and blueprint of setting up Drop Shipping Business. After providing credit card information had me sign and initial contract that had a 3 day grace period to cancel if chose to (told Lynn Nolte I was computer illiterate so didn't think i had skills to run such a business, assured me I would receive all training needed, walked through using computer by one of thier trainers, each having specific expertise. Also told her 3 days wasn't enough time for me to check into contract.) She immediately set up appointments with 2 other gentlemen from company to start my training. They did contact me at appointed time for training, first thing set up was a remote access program "Chrome Remote Desktop" to my computer so they could help my learn how to run my own business. They required me to have at least 3 or 4 credit cards to have access to set up funds should I need it. That's when I even called Lynn with apprehensions and concerns of this being scam because I provided them with detailed financial information (how stupid of me! I knew better!). Trainer called me right away, saying that Lynn contacted him about some misconceptions to assure me wasn't scam and I still felt comfortable going forward. Later also put in stipulations about how many times I needed to update website and provide discount ads. had to initial that agreement which said if I didn't check website 3 times week they could find me in violation of agreement. This is where I started to feel hair on back of head stand and tell me "This is BAD / WRONG." But being embarrassed I didn't act right away. Still continued to disreguard Security Alerts ?? from LifeLock and Banks because I DID apply and was approved of new Credit Cards.
