Three Names Same Company- THEOUS, SOPHEA, INFINOLOGY

I was wanting a Logo designed for my new start up. So I searched on google and came across the top 10 logo designers at themostpopularbrands.com/
reviews/logo_designers/index.htm?site=google&engine=adwords!2656&keyword= logo+design&match_type

This is were I was taken
theous.com/logo_designers/index.php

The site sounded and looked ok. I needed a logo quick and this company looked like they could help me at a reasonable rate. The site quality wasn't as good as many of the other companies I looked at, but I went against my better judgement because of their promotion. I couldn't believe I was getting $545.00 package for $165.00.

I paid my $165.00 for this package. After I paid I received their order e-mail confirmation, that didn't have a reference/ order # on it. It states the following “Infinology Corp. will appear on your credit card statement as they are the company which handles the credit card processing for Theous Corporation. If you have any questions with this order please call 863-223-2296.”

, shows my billing info. I didn't think much of it so I went about my business until I received a second e-mail from this company of many names. It stated Thank you for ordering our LogoDesign service. Please download the attached microsoft word document and answer the questions accordingly. We need you to answers these questions before we can start Designing your Logo. If you have any quesitons please email the question to: .

The document was very basic and asked very general questions concerning my company. Again I thought nothing of this. Everything seems to be moving right along. A week goes by and I haven't heard a thing from them. So I call and they say that they have my file and should start on it soon. They stated that there was a lot of business coming in from their special promotion and I should be patient.

I wait a few more days and still no word from this company. I start getting suspicious and do a search on this company. OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH I should have gone with my gut feeling on this. I was scammed and I knew it. There isn't a lot out on the search but what is out there isn't good concerning this company.

I called the company again and the person I spoke with stated he could find any info on my order. He asked if I was sure I placed an order.

I'm ticked off now and do a search again and find a site called Rip Off Report.com on this site I find a fellow consumer “ Gurvir” that has been jacked around. I e-mailed him and he stated he was talking to a manager by the name of Albert. So I called the # he gave me and spoke with Albert. Albert told me he also couldn't find any record of my purchase. I told him my card was charged by his company. His reply was to have me e-mail him with a reason as to why I want a refund. I sent the e-mail and waited. Nothing. I contacted Gurvir again and he said he has got Theous to refund our money but he has to retract his posting on Rip off Report. I call Theous again and speak to Albert. Albert says he will not refund my money until this other customer retracts his statement. I didn't write the complaint nor do I know your other customer. PLEASE refund my money. Albert again states all I have to do is E-mail him a reason why I'm requesting a refund and they will give my money back. I send him 6 more e-mails stating why I want a refund. I have not received a refund or a phone nor an e-mail from this company.

BEWARE !!! Don't use their services you will be ripped off
ANYONE ALREADY RIPPED OFF BY THEM CONTACT ME
my email is I am collecting their order receipts to send it to FBI to file report and have investigation done on this company.

[SIZE=1]P.S. it's never a good idea to piss off the moderators of a website.[/SIZE][/quote]


Why, is it because they can't handle the truth?


Alrighty then. No problem.

[quote=NeedKarma]So what are you doing?


1) I am in close communication with 11 individuals that have been victimized by this scam.

2) I am working with the LA Better Business Bureau to make sure that all communications and transactions are documented regarding the Scammers.

3) I am working with the FBI Internet Crimes Division by providing them as much information as possible, (Correspondence, TraceRoute Info, etc.)

4) I am working with the Federal Trade Commission, which referred me to the FBI Internet Crimes Division. The FTC is also monitoring this situation.

I am not the only person doing all of this, and those eleven people that I mentioned are not the only ones pursuing this.

ScottGem

The issue is not handling the truth, but seeing it. You have made a statement that the FBI is investigating this company. When asked to back up that statement your response is basically "ask them yourself" and you provide a link to do so. The point Rick was making here is that, you are not answering the question.

I don't think anyone here believes this company is legitimate. Their forgery of the BBB site makes that obvious. But if you make a statement you should be able to back it up with more than go ask them yourself.

DieselDude

Would it help if I provided you all with every piece of E-mail correspondence that I have? Just give me the go-ahead.

ScottGem

That is not necessary. The text of one e-mail that backs up what you have said would be sufficient. Or if one e-mail doesn't do it, then maybe some isolated quotes will do a better job. Something along the lines of:

I received an e-mail from Agent John Hardesty of the FBI stating that the company had been under investigation for fraud since 2005. A case against them is pending.

DieselDude

"I don't think anyone here believes this company is legitimate. Their forgery of the BBB site makes that obvious. But if you make a statement you should be able to back it up with more than go ask them yourself.[/quote]"

That's all I hope to achieve here; to make it as obvious as possible.
I don't have access to the FBI's servers. Common sense should tell you that if I am in communication with the FBI, that for you to find out whether they are being investigated, you shoud contact them to hear it from them. I am not an FBI spokesman. I simply provided a way for you to contact them and inquire.

The reason that I know they are investigating this, is because I was contacted and told so by them. If that's not good enough, then yes, contact them yourself and inquire.

RickJ

I think I see the issue here. You've reported them to the Internet Crime Complaint Center, "an FBI - NW3C Partnership"...so presume that they are being investigated by the FBI.

Hopefully they really are

DieselDude

Almost. But then again, I have actually verbally spoken with someone.

RickJ

I like to see justice done. I've just emailed Mary Lou Diaz, Director of Consumer Services of the LA office of the BBB that this company is falsely advertising their BBB rating

DieselDude

Absolutely. That's all I want too. I only lost $165 to them, yet there are some folks that have lost a lot more than $165 to Theous.com, Sophea.com and Infinology. Even though I was a victim, my fight is genuinely for those folks that have been greatly taken advantage of.

I research Theous.com, Sophea.com.net, and Infinology every single day. I do whatever I can to follow their trail. I am just waiting for their Web Site to be shut down; in the meantime, I'll bet that they are probably scheming up some other fraudulent plan to create emotional distress on their future victims.

RickJ

Response is back from my email to BBB:
