On the above date, 5 Star Commerce (Phoenix, Arizona) called to offer me (a 65 year old woman, alone) a great way to make money from home. They talked me into letting them put about $10,000 on a credit card and said I would likely have cash by Thanksgiving. They asked how much I would need monthly and implied this would easily bring in that much (1-2 thousand dollars). Then, they apparently gave my info to Aggressive Advertising who called (with me thinking they were 5 Star Commerce) and said I would make $ much faster with television ads. So they added another $10,00.00 to other credit cards. I have since received 2 blank DVDs and one with a few seconds of advertising with my name on it which made no sense. This is clearly a scam and I need to find some way out of it. Of course, no money ever showed up

  • ctclaf-- this company has also ripped me off. Report this to the credit card companies as fraud. Report it to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Arizona Attorney General and also the Attorney General of your home state, the Better Business Bureau, if you haven't already done so.
    Five Star commerce submitted their dissolution/ withdrawal on 12/21/11 and articles of termination on 1/4/12 as published on the Arizona Corporation Commission. It looks like "Gregory Cunningham", Agent for Five Star Commerce is on the run??
