Back in 2008 I did try the program. I was charged $197 to get the benefit of using their custom built website. The first few days deals with the psychological aspect of attracting wealth.

You can even advance to the subsequent days in the back office of your system so that you can review all seven days at once.

It was good information but the program wasn’t for me. It was very down to earth. I clicked on terms and conditions and got the necessary instructions for cancellation policy. I faxed the info to the appropriate party, mailed back the contents, and just as they assured I got a complete refund – the entire $197.

All communication was done by email. The representative told me every step of the way the status of my refund. I had to log into my back office with my password.

I was not use to communications via email only but they kept their word and acted very professional with me. You have to know the terms of agreement prior to signing up, be aware of the limitations, and keep good records.

All and all a positive experience. The refund was prompt and professional.

I did as many others on her have. I received the too good to be true eamil and wondered if it could be true…but like mama always said if it sounds easy and simple and too good to be true, it most likely is- having a baby is the only profitable gift u can be given!

I have been doing marketing strategies and small business management for 20 or so years. I have a close relationship with Sheri B lessner (Customer service analyst) . It is obvious that this is a combination of a “Dollar scam”, “clone Marketing” and “Virtual laundering for interest”.
I intended on writing a full explanation on how these scams work but I decided that this is not a proper forum for a 10 paragraph explanation of legitimate business practices that are twisted and exploited in order to scam honest people out of there hard earned money. So I will just give you a quick look at how it works.
It works like this:
1) Get a million people to send you a dollar (Presumably Non-Refundable) = One Million Dollars. ( How many people do you know that would invest $1 to start a profitable business?) It might not be the actual number but it sounds like a good goal to aim for. This money would normally be put in what I call a “Dead End Account” and it will never be seen again.

2) Charge an amount for a service or product and call it a free trial. (refundable after 7 days, 30 days , or what ever. i think in this case the amount was 157.00 . If you drag your feet when it comes time to return the money you can earn a pretty penny just in interest from the money sitting in your account.
It gets a lot more complicated then this but I don’t want to give potential scammers a blue print to work from.
Be smart when you see an offer like this and analyze the claim. In this case he states that you can make money by giving out free information on the internet. If you think about it you might realize that public t.v stations and radio have been doing this for years. Look up some information sites on the internet , it is the same basic principal. IT is not really a secret and their are a lot of free resources to learn. people have been doing it for years. The secret to this guys self proclaimed success is hype and then if you get anything from him it will just be information that is available all over the internet for free.
An example of a legitimate information site is “AwayBabyCare.com” look at the structure and follow the links and you will learn everything you need to know about how the Free information business works.
Always remember that a Legitimate business opportunitiy will state up front what they are.

Good Luck everybody

I put a stop payment on the account $30.00, had my Legal service send them a letter, and the Bank promised to turn it over to the FBI.

This is so funny! I hate to laugh at people but sometimes it can’t be helped. I received the “mystery millionaire” email this morning and laughed and thought to myself “never heard” of this person , what a scam, so I went to google and searched “mystery millionaire” and this was the first site that popped up.

It was sad to see all the folks that actually thought that was a viable way of making money, or anything else for that matter. What was even worse was the response from Gwen that was looking for you to return her money. Priceless!

Wake up you sick lazy dumb idiots and get a job instead of looking for the Leprechaun with a pot of gold.

This is the biggest scam going. With all of it’s promises and false comments. It is truly a complete lie that got me for $1000.00 before I had enough sense to get out. I can’t believe that I fell for all of his/ hers or whoever is behind all of the BS they put out there. I am stuck with 50 videos that are worthless. He or she or whoever makes money on everyone they tell you to use.They should be held accountable and refund everyone there money. The worst part is for the people who don’t have much money to start with and are truly counting on this as a last resort. I really feel bad for them.

I went through the 7 day trial then canceled. The part about lining up affiliate networks didn’t set well with me.
I found it strange that when I canceled, no one from the company asked how they could make it better or what could they do to get me to stay….

One thing I didn’t like was that after the first few days into the program they mailed me some small kit……..once I canceled, I had to mail that back to get a refund of the upsell I took…….

I did send that back and have got an email from the company telling me my refund had been credited to my CC, but I haven’t seen that yet.

For the person above, who said they don’t communicate with you: I had no trouble………each time I submitted a support ticket they did respond in 1-2 days and I even called their office once so there is no problem getting in touch with them.

All in all, if I were a good negotiator and could line up affiliate networks with no problem, I would have stayed in, but there is no help in that department so I left………….otherwise I didn’t see anything wrong with the company……..everything seemed like it would work OK.

Good luck to all.
