Swiss Management Office GMBH
Complaint 18623 Details

I met with Mr. Richard Leericks, CEO of Swiss Management Office in Diegem Belgium in late February 2011. At the time Mr. Leericks agreed to work toward securing an investor for my business project. He initially requested a 30, 000 USD retainer on a 60 day contract but when we indicated we did not have that much in liquid funds available he and his protege Mr. Samuel Cummings agreed to a 10, 000 USD retainer and an additional 3, 000 USD to open offshore bank account for investment funds to be delivered into. This agreement was done in writing and signed by both parties with the guarantee that our 13, 000 USD would be fully refunded to us if SMO was not able to source the funds for our project. For three months which was one month more than our signed agreement we got nothing but misinformation and the run around from both Mr. Leericks and Mr. Cummings and no funding was obtained and we heard a lot of BS. I requested a full refund at the end of May and to make a long story short still have not received all of my promised refundable retainer back and it has been 10 weeks today since I cancelled this arrangement and requested a refund. These guys are full of it and running a smoke screen scam and probably investing the money you give them in other things similar to a Ponzi scheme and then giving the runaround when you try to get your refund so they can continue to hang on to your funds longer. Stay away from giving any retainer to this company as this has been one of the most ridiculous experiences of lies and deceit that I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with
