CONTACTING THE AUTHOR

The author WILL NOT respond to the following:

  • Questions about whether a particular firm is running the scam mentioned in this site.
    When a court or regulatory agency determines that the company is running a scam, then it's a scam. I am not equipped to make such a determination and will not open myself up to legal liability with mere suspicions. This is why it's so important for those who have been defrauded to take action!
  • Requests for sources.
    They're all public. Look them up.
  • Requests to mirror this site.
    I grant my permission in advance and appreciate it. Feel free to notify me of the mirror url.
  • SPAM.
    This will get you reported to your ISP and regulatory authorities. Don't even try it. I guarantee there is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, that you can sell me by sending unsolicited email.
  • Complaints from pro-MLM writers.
    I am against MLMs that misrepresent their opportunities to their participants. I've done my best to make it clear where I stand and why. I guarantee I've heard your defense before. If you disagree, put up your own website AND DON'T BOTHER ME. If you still can't read and want to write to complain, you are agreeing that I may post your message in a future "Hall of Shame", no exceptions. (Bill & Janet Orr of Primerica Financial Services, please get reading lessons.)

The author WILL respond to the following:

  • News about lawsuits.
    If it's public record, I may post it to the site. Feel free to post it in the mailing list.
  • Requests for updates, corrections, suggestions.
    If something needs fixing, I'll fix it. Nobody's perfect.
  • General comments, questions.
    Feedback regarding the site is appreciated.
  • Offers of legal help for readers.
    I'll post your contact information for readers. Feel free to join the mailing list. Note that under no circumstances do I accept any sort of referral fees from attorneys.
  • "You're talking about my company! I'm going to sue!"
    Don't be paranoid. I'll negotiate removing specific information if you can prove how it hurts your specific business, but this site targets no specific company. There's no excuse for not contacting me about concerns, but don't waste my time.

Now, IF YOU HAVE READ ALL OF THE ABOVE and STILL WANT TO EMAIL ME... click below. A Javascript-enabled browser (such as Internet Explorer) is required to email me.


About the author: For the record, this site is run by an individual who does not profit in any way from it; it is a labor of love for those who might otherwise be victimized. I haven't mentioned my own experience anywhere on this site, only those of others taken from public documents. I'm no longer in the financial services industry and can't be accused of being a competitor out for financial gain nor be accused of being a disgruntled ex-rep since my reasons for leaving had little to do with my firm. I'm not part of any "conspiracy" out to get any particular company; nobody has paid me a dime to put this site up. You will note that there is no link back to the home site, which does have some commercial elements and is in no way related to this particular subsite. You're free to find your way to the home site, but again, it's completely unrelated and therefore not linked back to.
