Scams! Con-Artist at large!

Thu Jul 10, 2008, 11:54 AM
What's the idea with infomercials trying to sell us blatant lies and get rich quick schemes? The only people who profit from them are the bastards who withdraw ten to thirty dollars a month in unexpected 'Membership Fees' when you unsuspectingly purchase an innocent looking book over the television or internet only to discover it's at the cost of your bank account, your eternal soul and your first born child.

Con-artists really make me sick. They prey on people who don't expect to get ass-raped when they unwittingly fall for a scheme disguised as something else. An older couple recently purchased a 'Natural Cures' book by Kevin Trudeau, looking to see about a headache cure. What they found was recycled myths about various things to do for a headache, a collection of stolen information that could easily be found on the internet, all cataloged in his novel, and nothing concrete.

They also found themselves in debt. The bank declared their account empty, charged them hundreds in overdraw fees, and Kevin Trudeau and his associates lined their pockets with the old couple's life savings. It was all they had to live on, gone because these thieves syphoned it out of them in secret monthly fees!

Now they go without heart medications and food because they don't have any money due to the actions of these bastards, while the bank and television representatives refuse to help, claiming there is nothing they can do! I've loaned them all the money I can, and it makes me sick to see them in this condition because of con-artists like Kevin Trudeau.

Don't fall for their schemes. Spread the word.

The world makes me sick.
