Services were misrepresented on sales call. Phone calls pour in from lots of numbers and different companies. Can't keep track of who is who.

In December of 2012 I purchased enrollment into a program I was lead to believe was going to help me start up my own website to sell products from distributors(who I was told would be sought out for me) with COMPLETE MARKETING SOLUTIONS/BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT SYSTEMS.Then I signed a contract emailed from a Impact KI representative which used the name 'COMPLETE MARKETING SOLUTIONS/BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT SYSTEMS' for the whole contract. It said that COMPLETE MARKETING SOLUTIONS/BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT SYSTEMS would be conducting my lessons, which I was later told was done by Impact KI. When I asked Impact KI about COMPLETE MARKETING SOLUTIONS/BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT SYSTEMS, they said they had no affiliation with them (they just sold their products and services). They couldn't even provide me with a telephone number. Obviously confusing to me because everything in the contract(from an Impact KI representative)was under the name COMPLETE MARKETING SOLUTIONS/BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT SYSTEMS. Never once did it mention Impact KI or explain how it was a separate business that I was taking the program with.
Then, in a separate installment agreement contract, the company was listed as Internet Marketing Success Team (which Impact KI representative told me they had never heard of).
So a lot of weird things happen once you sign up. You are constantly contacted with information on how to improve your business (for a price of course). Impact KI claims they are not affiliated with these companies yet these company's representatives knew details about Impact KI, even who my coach was and what her personality was like. So after paying $1000 upfront and setting up payments for another $3400,I also purchased a $1700 and $1200 service from Precision Corporate Services for Business credit help and tax help.Again told by Impact KI it is not them, but somehow all these companies are receiving my contact information and claiming to be part of the program. The calls never stop. And after 4 months of them, asking for more money that you don't have, I stopped answering. I think this is completely understandable. I busted my butt to try to make the website work. No real tools, other than pretty basic info, were given without having to spend extra money. So I pay $4000 to Impact KI to get 8 half hour sessions(which were normally about 25 min) of basic info and access to a website that gives the same basic info? The website does offer some additional info to the phone sessions but still nothing that is worth even close to $4000. On this website, they give you links to drop shipping companies. The sites for my niche market were terrible. I informed my coach of this. She then sent me a list of additional sites to try. They were the same sites I found with one quick google search. Obviously no time was put into looking into these companies. Which is fine, but not for a $4000 service.
The more I look into things, there more I notice strange things going on. There are multiple addresses for Impact KI including UT and Lake Worth, FL. There also seems to be many companies claiming to be associated with and seeming to be part of, Impact KI. But when problems arise Impact KI blames it on these companies. Which they couldn't even give me a phone number to. So no number for a company that sold your services? Impact KI only offers more of their sessions which were not very affective in the first place.
Nothing in this program is worth $4000 dollars. During the sales process, much of what you are told is included in the program is not. What is Impact KI's affiliation with all these other company's?? In closing, I showed the example websites from Impact KI (including my coaches websites) to a local internet marketing business. He looked at them and laughed. Said they were very elementary. I told them I spent $4000 for there e-commerce program and I don't even want to write his reaction to that. I feel like I have been had.
