Same refund scam perpetrated on me

Updated by user Mar 14, 2023

Spoke w/Chris Davis this morning, he still wants me to send balance of fee quoted, $4000. I asked again for proof that NMC actually exists and that the promised refund is escrowed for me.

Nothing was offered, convoluted explanations as to why such was not possible. There seem to be at least 3 layers to this cake. 1. Chris works for NMC 2.

attorneys contracted by NMC to maintain constant contact with First Data to arrange escrow of funds for a claimant who has paid the fee; First Data should escrow refund amount for the claimant immediately or prepare to be sued. 3.First Data (also known as "the processors?), the entity that actually holds and manages the sizeable set-aside client reparation fund for NexGen, which is "going out of business".I have told Chris I don't intend to complete this process as my requests for documentation have been ignored or inadequately provided; he says NMC would have the lawyers sue me for the fee balance. Based on tape recorded conversations between Chris and myself, Chris says the attorneys had "done the work", work for which I have no proof of performance. If I pay the fee balance by close of business today, the proof of performance will be the refund check and accompanying documentation from First Data, to be received at some point in the future.

If not, I am told to expect Legal paperwork generated to sue me for $3,300. Finally, some paperwork with names on it! The deposit I sent him via text (second $700 to replace the stop-pay one) was deposited in NatMarkCo account at Mountain America Credit Union and has cleared my account. I requested a receipt for this 2nd check; I received an image of an untitled deposit line that I assume was from his deposit receipt.

By the way, my filing a stop-payment on my initial deposit check was described by Chris in a text message to me as a "mess" that he discussed in a lengthy meeting after which Chris told me that the attorneys wanted to sue me for the balance and not process my refund at all. My understanding of the path to the "gold" at the end of this rainbow is 1. I provide check/s totaling $4,000 via text to Chris Davis who deposits them to an account in the name of NatMarkCo. no identifiable receipt to me.

2.Chris advises someone (attorneys?, NatMarkCo upline?, First Data?) to release the escrow amount ($26,967) to me via hard check. The check is to be accompanied by written documentation to back up the entire transaction stream.

When I asked him to explain how and why my case would be successful when the present PC reviews here were not, he said that the reviews were old and that these people were probably contacted and given a satisfactory resolution but did not update their reviews. He also reported that he and his company had successfully refunded money to a huge number of people who had been victimized, with no need for a website or published phone number.

I have also been contacted by purported NMC associate offering to secure for me a refund from a very costly online scam to which I fell prey in 2020. he convinced me that advance payment would be held in escrow; I sent a check for less than 25% of his asking fee.

On second thought I stopped payment on that check, and he threatened to have their lawyers sue me.

That didn't scare me but I did relent (senior citizen financial insecurity played a big part) and provided the partial payment again. In the cold light of morning I have read the reviews here, recognized myself as another victim, and although disappointed with myself I am thankful not to be further victimized.
Should have listened more closely to that little angel on my shoulder; my new mantra for unrecognized solicitors: hang up, block, and congratulate myself for staying safe.

They took my money and then ignored me

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I paid National Marketing Consultants $2,000 to get back $37,000 I was scammed out of by another company. I have emailed them five times, 5/4/18; 6/3/18; 6/11/18; 6/26/28 and 7/3/18 and I have not heard a peep.

The only information I have on them is that they are an online business. I'm not even sure what state they are in. I've been going online to see if I can find more information on them but it seems that their only business is to cheat people out of money. There are a number of bad reviews online and NO positive ones.

Is there anyone out there who knows how to get money back from scammers? I am at a loss as to how to begin to go about trying to recover my money.Sad
