Is accurise the same scam as IMC Capital?

well...they have changed their name to accurise and accurise is a scam alright! They used to be called IMC Capital, but they got so many complaints and "rip-off-reports" that they had to change thier name so they could keep ripping people off. This is nothing but a telemarketing scam. The owner of accurise is just a thief and a scam artist who is taking advantage of people who need help. I can tell you from personal experience that accurise is a scam. I worked there. We were instructed by the owner to tell them that we were approved by the Department of Justice and that we were calling from a mortgage company called Cobalt. Accurise doesn't even tell the people that they are signing up for credit repair. The clients are told that they are getting approved for a home loan. The owner of accurise is the worst kind of thief. He tells his employees to call people who have applied for loans with Lending Tree and tell them that accurise is an FHA program. It is a terrible place to work. I was only there for 3 weeks but it was enough. The owner of the company was like a scam artist crook from the movies. They treat the employees like slaves and pay them next to nothing and then threaten them all day long. We were told to lie. We were instructed to tell clients that the first step to getting them approved for a loan was "a free consultation," but first they had to pay $59.95 for their credit report. Credit reports don't cost anywhere near that and most people know that so we had to tell them that it was some kind of "special" credit report that only we could get. We were also instructed to tell them that there was some kind of guarantee to their services but, there really isn't. The clients are told they are getting a "free consultation" worth $300. This is a joke. There is no consultation. The so called credit experts are just more telemarketers who know nothing about credit or anything else and whose only purpose is to trick the people into signing up for something they can do themselves. We were told to tell them that credit repair would only cost about $300-$500 and that was only if they needed it. They all needed it according to the so-called "credit specialists" (salesmen) and were charged much more. Clients are told that we have a 2 for 1 special but accurise just charges them twice as much. They are always changing the lies almost every day to stay ahead of the California Attorney General and the have meetings where the owner laughs about the Assistant CA Atty General and how they keep her happy with a bunch of lies and scams. They have sales meetings all the time which are really just sessions about changing the lies that the telemarketers can tell this week. I think most of the telemarketers who work there really think they are helping people. They are told that one day they will make decent money if they just keep selling more and more of these phony credit reports. They are victims also. They are abused intimidated and underpaid.

are you being prosecuted for this? ijust called accurise about this because im a customer and now im worried about being scammed and they said they are aware of this article and that the writer is being prosecuted but i dont see how you could already be prosecuted if this was just written two days ago

Thanks for the tip just got "matched"

I'm confused...Is this a scam? Because I just received a call from a lady telling me that these people will be contacting me within 24hrs. I'm looking to finance a home. Not sure if I'm to trust them or not. Anything anyone can tell me would be appreciated.

Cool, thanks for looking out! I work as a credit counselor and I'm always looking out for these companies that scam people so I can pass along the information to my consumers.

Thanks for the heads up... my husband and I are trying to obtain a home loan after a bankruptcy and some IMC company just called me, and their story matches up to everything you said they would say PERFECTLY! I knew right away it was a scam, but had to check it out to make sure others knew. Thank you!!!
