Better Business Bureau Statement
It was reported to BBB serving CT that numerous people have been contacted via phone by individuals claiming to represent College Prep Tutors, offering ACT and SAT Prep software, supplies and textbooks. The individual (who calls himself "Brad Murphy," but may go by other names) requests a $250 deposit to be returned in 30 days. Consumers do not receive the products and all attempts to obtain a refund are unsuccessful.
