Comments on: Investment Seminar Scams! https://sedonaeye.com/investment-seminar-scams/ Local News From All Points of View Sun, 27 Mar 2011 14:54:22 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.1 By: Ann Kaycee https://sedonaeye.com/investment-seminar-scams/comment-page-1/#comment-7048 Sun, 27 Mar 2011 14:54:22 +0000 https://sedonaeye.com/?p=7864#comment-7048 I went to one of these seminars and they gave us free lunch at a fancy hotel. The salesman like you said was high-pressure even to the point of singling out those who were not interested in purchasing after the lecture as “wasting my company time and money.”

I noticed from the beginning all of their statistics were pre-2008 which was before the economic crisis. I don’t count any financial statistics before 2008 as relative anymore. This is a new economy with different rules.

Now that you mention it, I did notice that he targeted a senior couple and chummed them up a lot. The salesman even hit on my sister which I believe may also be part of a sales tactic.

We were literally trapped there for two hours with intimidating looking bouncers guarding the doors before we got up and walked out. I will never go to one of these again.
