Imagine you're out of work and you see an ad for a job paying as much as $500 a week to assemble angel pins at home. Sounds too good to be true, right?
That's what Teresa Yeast thought, too, after she answered an ad from a company called Angel Pin Creations. She thought it was something she could manage while caring for her two children with disabilities.
"I've been scammed and it hurts, it hurts a lot," Yeast said.
Teresa's husband was out of work, so out of desperation to make money she sent the company the $580 for the kit to make the angels.
"It was not money that I had to spare," she said. "It was money that I sent in was in faith."
But the kit was incomplete, making it almost impossible to piece the angels together.
"I think that was their objective, to wear you out, frustrate you to the point you give up and they have your money and you are just done," Yeast said.
That didn't stop her. She attempted to send in sample, after sample, after sample. The company turned all of them down.
