Complaint Review: Armando Montelongo Seminars

Armando Montelongo Seminars are a rip-off.

By using Deceptive Trade Practices the 3-day Seminar Attendee's are bombarded with Success Testimonials from previous seminar students.  What they don't tell you is that these students are in a program called the Master Mentor Program, which is not offered at the 3-day event, but is solicited to the students at the Property Flipping Bus Tour.  This is a guaranteed house to flip program for an extra $25,000.  This program then matches participants with investors and they are guaranteed a flip.

I attended the 3-day event in Denver,  May of 2011.  I signed up for the top program they offered at the event which was the Diamond Elite Membership.  Not until the last day of the Property Flipping Bus tour was I solicited for the Master Mentor Program.  I was told for $25,000 more I could be guaranteed a successful house to flip and split the profits with an Investor lined up by Armando Montelongo Seminars.  

In retrospect, I thought that the people in the testimonials were average students like me that attended the bus tour.  But they are not.  They have paid extra for the opportunity to get a guaranteed flip.  With over 400 people attending the bus flipping tour and only two or three real estate agents, hardly anyone who does not pay the extra $25,000 can even bid on a house.

I feel I was taken advantage of using Deceptive Business Practices.
