I did not think this kind of thing would ever actually happen and I am no different from all the others I have spoken with. I was ashamed and when I told my family what 3xp web solutions did to me, they were actually very supportive, which I needed. My credit card people have been supportive at least after we scoured our family files and records and gave them the evidence they needed (3xp web solutions and its owner Garette Craig are very sneaky and plan their scam tactics very well). They have been in business taking people's money like this for at least three years. Here's generally how it all goes down. They call you at your home and toss out the idea of you having your own web store. The man made it sound very easy (he assured me that it would only take 15 minutes a day to monitor orders and purchases). He made it sound fun - he said I get to design my own web site just how I like it. He focused what we talked about to be mostly the tens of thousands of customers that his 3xp web solutions company would bring to the store with web hosting and world-class marketing techniques. I did some googling at that point and I was at first scared away because when you enter [ 3XP Web Solutions ] into google, there are some fraud alerts and a company SMC won a lawsuit against some employees for using their name which is a serious form of b2b fraud. However, there was also an ethical arizona website (that turns out to be a completely meaningless web page) and their BBB rating was okay. (Oh no!) For the time, last July 08 I was somehow convinced that it would be financially wise for me to put money I did not have into the company 3 XP Web solutions. I was willing to go with a medium web site and marketing plan for around $3,000. That seems a lot, I thought, but the sales guy was eager. He seemed genuinely wanting to help me make money, and there would be a 3XP Web coach I could always count on (so I was made to believe). Somehow, when I went to pay, I was instucted to pay over $4,000, and when I protested and said but wait we decided I was going to start with the medium sized option, he was very sympathetic and reassuring. He said that his boss realized that that is not actually an option any more and the only way that I could make any money at all was if I paid $4550. He said it would have to be that because otherwise it would be a small store with no traffic and there would be no point and I would just be wasting my money. So, like a duped statistical victim that I was at that moment (victim of this very bad company) I paid $4550 to 3XP Web Solutions. My credit card, as I noticed the next month, had been charged for just about $5000! For the first two weeks, the people were helpful in getting my store up and running. After two weeks out, I could not get anyone to help me with anything. My coach was not a coach at all but actually just another salesperson - she just tried to sell me more features. When I insisted that the features I paid for do not work and I need help, she would just lose interest, give me no help and hang up, always very abruptly. My store, today, still does not have a single customer. After 8 weeks, I had had enough. I wanted my money back. Guess what their money back policy is? Of the $5000, if I "quit," as they kept calling it, here are the terms - I would get less that $1,500 back and I would lose my store (no one is actually allowed even to have their store, ever - if that is not a reflection of this megascam I surely the heck don't know what is!). That is astounding in light of the fact that I paid for what I never even received and moreover for 52 weeks, meaning that I should get back at least (even by their crazy idea of customer service) 52 weeks minus 8 weeks divided 52 weeks which is )0.85 x 5000 or $4,200 or more dollars. This company is the worst company I have ever encountered. I finally had had with this company and contacted my credit card company. They are working on it. In the meantime, I want to do what I can to empower anyone reading this to avoid this company like the plague. So, in the end, the fraud notices were trying to summon me to the truth and they just were not strong enough for me. Someone who contacted me with a similar experience as mine with 3xp web solutions said that Garette L Craig the owner of 3xp web has a terrible record. Yes, I found this company to be a bunch of crooks who offer a crooked notion of service. Other consumers with experiences with this company please add your complaints and comments so we can help warn others and put this company out of business. As consumers, we deserve honest exchanges of payments and services. 125 S Avondale Blvd 105 Avondale, AZ 85323 (623) 936-1286 (602) 644-7350 3xpweb.com The people involved in this operation include: Garette L Craig, owner garette AT 3xpweb.com Annabel Craig, owner's spouse most likely annabel AT 3xpweb.com Troy Johnson troy AT 3xpweb.com Tracy Crum tracy AT 3xpweb.com Lesley Head of Sales Telemarketing lesley AT 3xpweb.com Emily Flores emily AT 3xpweb.com Fellow Victims of 3XP 1.

Avondale Blvd. #105 Avondale, AZ 85323 http://3xpweb.com I too have been scammed by this despicable company. I've filed my BBB report, filed a report on Ripoffreport.com, Complaintsboard.com and will follow up everywhere I think I can help other unsuspecting consumers from falling into their scam. I didn't lose all that much money, but to me it's not so much about the money. It's the principal. These guys are scam artists and hold a B - BBB rating? I'm simply disgusted. I'd love to be contacted by others in the same boat. THERE IS STRENGTH IN NUMBERS!

In reality, these stores cost a few dollars to set up and make the client no money. The value to cost ratio is virtually zero. Over 90% of the web sites are not registered in the client's name. Instead, although the client pays through the nose for the web site, the client does not even have it registered to them. It is very sad, wrong, and unacceptable to allow it to continue. If you have done business with 3XP Web Solutions, please help your fellow consumers, help out with protecting the middle class, the frame of our economy, and help achieve justice by letting authorities know of your experience. It is very important and informative for you too. Go to FBI Cyber Crime web site www.ic3.gov <http://www.ic3.gov/>. If you feel cheated, know that you are not alone. Know that the reason your store made no money is not because of you. It is because the 3XP Web Solutions' marketing is a complete sham. Even with the largest packages of 100,000 to 300,000 visitors, they do NOT bring visitors to your web site. Know that you are justified in how you feel and know that you are NOT ALONE. I know FIRSTHAND that even clients listed in 3XP Web Solutions' gallery were cheated and feel cheated. In addition to the FBI Cyber Crime web site www.ic3.gov, there is a helpful site for consumers: http://www.lookstoogoodtobetrue.com/ Remember to GOOGLE the name of a company before you give any money at all, especially if over the phone.
