I applied for work by computer with "Angela Penbrook Productions" on 3/19/2008.
The company accepted my credit card and charged my account. I received a, thank you, for signing right a way. Then a couple of weeks later I received another email, asking me to confirm. They wante me to sign up again.

I would not give the information again. They said someone would get in touch with me to get me started eith this in home work. Nothing has happened. I would like my money back. Please help me. Let me know how I can get my account credited for the
$197.oo that the Penbrook company has taken.

Thank you

Too late I find that others have found out about Penbrook Productions. Against my better judgement and in need of some extra income, I sent in my fee of $197 dollars to join the rebate business. After recieving several no reply emails with typing errors, I called the number provided in the orignal ad and got a "customer service" person who promised a refund within 6- 10 working days. 30 days later, my charge card bill reflects that I was never refunded. Now, I have deleted the email with my "account" number, and can not get a human being to respond to any of the phone numbers that I found on the other complaint boards. I have sent my credit card all the information on Penbrook Productions I could fiind and am asking for their assistance in getting this money back. I think I might be out of luck and deeper in debt. Please don't make this mistake~~

Hello every one I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I am a Private Investigator and was hired by a couple that had been scammed by Penbrook Productions. I would like it if everyone who has lost money with this company email me with as much information as you can about Penbrook Productions and all peoples names and phone numbers that you have had contact with it will help in my investigation and in bringing these people to justice. I will keep you all posted on my findings and progress. My email address is [email protected] Don't give up, these persons responsible will pay one way or another.

Sincerely, Marty Jorgensen (PI)

Hopefully, you are reading this ~ smarter than I! ~ before paying your $197.00. I agreed to payment, received the info, and within a minute knew I'd made a mistake. The "rebate program" is a breath shy from money laundering through your personal PayPal account!

I immediately requested a refund. I received an email an hour or so later stating that they were processing my refund, but couldn't seem to match my info. Could they have the last four digits of the credit card number used, along with my email (which they were -sending- to!) and name.

The $197.00 remained on hold in my account for three days. I believed that they were simply going to let it "drop off, " rather than process it. Fine by me. Turns out, they did let it drop. The bank credited the held funds back into my account and then, today, they put it THROUGH again! Yep. $197.00 gone.

I have emailed them and advised they had 24 hours to respond with my refund information and timeframe or I would seek legal counsel.

I can't believe I was so, so foolish!

I sure wish I had seen this site before I sent my $197.00. I joined in February, 2008 and the money was drafteed from my account. I was skeptical and the next day I emailed and cancelled my membership which is legitimate according to their money back policy. I emailed on February 21, February 25 and April 3 requesting the refund. Today is April 17, 2008 and I still have not heard from anyone. Now I am out $197.00 and this Penbrook person is sitting pretty taking money from honest people who are just trying to get by. It really makes you not trust anyone. At one point sometime in March a man called and wanted to start training me. I told him I had withdrawn my membership and asked when I would get my money back. He told me at the end of the billing cycle. I wonder which billing cycle he was talking about. I would really like to know if I have any recourse or am I just out the money? I sure won't fall for these scams again.
