Re: Tele Teton Corporation (by Janet P.):
Please..please take the time to read this..it is long but important. I believe this company is tied into another company called Redline Funding. We were contacted by Redline. We were very leary of them and asked our lawyer who said it was probably a scam. We contacted the Michigan Consumer Agency, contacted the Michigan State Attorneys office, the Michigan Better Business Bureau and the Internet Business Bureau. We could find NOTHING on them that we felt to be afraid of...A ratings and no complaints. They offer you a buyer and a contract that "looks" good. We took that to our county attorney and told him of all we had checked with and found nothing ..no complaints.. nothing. They have a "professional staff" all set up in a "office" somewhere. We DRILLED them over and over, thought we were being cautious and reponsible. Still somewhat leary, we signed with them for $2270. They take your money (first clue not to talk to them)..then they tell you it will take about 90 days and that the fee you have paid them is to do the legal work., ie, research your contract with your resort...notify them of a first right of refussel, etc. Then you wait. I called my resort today and of course they have never heard of them or been contacted by them. Our red flags that have already gone up are now flying high. Called the company and guess what? NO longer in service. The website says "due to circumstances beyond our control we are no longer in business". I called directory assistance to check on phone number. I was given three numbers, all with the same physical address under the name of "Redline Funding". Called them..one of them was TeleTeton. Imagine that!! The other is a Wyoming area code ( I know as I live in Wyoming). I called TeleTeton and talked extensively with a man. I believe there is a chance that people employed by them do not know they are working for a scam. I talked to one of them and either he is not in the know...or they are really good at their job. He also said that they have only been in business since Jan. , the same as Redline. Just long enough to take lots of money from all of us then shut down and move on. This is why I believe that Redlind Funding and TeleTeton are connected. I believe they change their name and employees. Beware. I thought that I had been pretty savvy and really checked them out. They don't have complaints or poor ratings because they aren't around long enough. We all need to go to the State Attorney General and stop this scam!
