Today I received a call from the company noted above while getting into my car. I was told I could make up to $38K by issuing refunds to people whom had paid off their mortgages and could make $400-$800 per refund proc'd while working at home. I was leary of giving out my credit card info so had asked if they could send or email me the info for my review before committing to the $69 (+10 for S&H) charge to receive the package and was told not to call the Customer Service Line until after I both received and reviewed the 'white 8 X 10 envelope'. Immediately after hanging up I knew I had gobe against my better judgement so once I got home I googled "GMI Enterprises - a legit company" and was prompted with a list of attached scams associated with this name and with same details/story line they had provided me. Please use caution should you receive a call from this company. If I had waited the 7-10 days to recieve the info they would have already collected the money by then.

I was told by my bank that I would have to close out my account because this company has my checking account number! This is going to be a real hazzle as I have automatic check withdrawl and deposit from my pension, medicare, social security, Pet Insurance,Curves.
This is the rule, "If it sounds too good to be true, it is!" Never, never, never give your credit card or checking account number over the phone for anything unless you personally know the company and even then it is a good practice to not do that. Unethical people are using the internet solely for the purpose to scam and make money. They usually move on after using these fraudulent companies and stay many times ahead of the law. I thought I was too smart to ever be scammed but my eagerness to get a job and work online clouded my better judgment. I hope this prevents YOU FROM LOSING MONEY AND TIME AS IT HAS COST ME.
I was waiting on the phone with the Adobe Co. when another call clicked in and it was from a company called GMI. The woman was very pushy and wanted me to send $79 to their company in order to process gov't HUD refunds to homeowners. I proceeded to ask the customer service rep questions about GMI, its owners or owner and the customer service rep clammed up. She would not give me any information about the owner of GMI only that his first name is Steve and that she wasn't allowed to give out any other information. When I asked the customer service rep if she could give me a number where I could call her back, she hung up on me. VERY BOGUS!!! BUYER BEWARE!!! VERY FRAUDULENT!!!
