Anyone heard of Merchant of Dreams?

I have just received a business card through my letterbox from Merchant of Dreams.

The card reads:

"Do you have BIG BILLS? Earn £100 to £300 per week in your spare time and pay them off!

We are a 86 year old plc looking for people to work from home. No experience necessary. Ongoing local training. For a free no obligation information pack phone or visit website.....


Featured in a book by Llyods Bank - As seen on TV"


Is this a scam?

I have visited the website, but they won't give out any info. You have to sign up to the free information pack. I have also googled the name, but had no joy.
Thanks!

  • Says in the testimonial section that you have a start up cost of £65.
    No income can be guaranteed from that kind of thing, I would steer well clear!!
    You never know how strong you are until you have no other option.
  • I always think if it's that good a deal, why are they adverising by putting cards through doors!

    The only 86 year old plc that I can think of is KLEENEZE.

    Actually, I think they were 86 years old last year, so someone needs to get their cards reprinted.
