Yes, Dolly, it was you who tried to sell me. A female marketer, you, Dolly. You were the one who told me to liquidate my IRA to pay for your services. No wonder no body else remembered the conversation. Because it was you who had the conversation. As far as your firms legitimacy, I hope you do help people. But, as far as your predatory marketing techniques, your spam style dishonest emails that pretend to know the person being contacted and your moutn dropping story about the banks, the Fed and the illegal credit contracts just to bilk some poor slob into giving you their last $2000 so they can attend some classes they don't need so they can hope to get rid of the credit problems like magic. Gimme a break. IF this worked once the good news would spread all over the place, on every TV show, radio show and there would tons of new books out about it. Think about it, Dolly instead of taking $2000 from one person at at time, you could write a Dummies book and make $10 from millions of people and put the entire banking industry out of the credit business for good. Now go get you sword and start slaying some windmills.

DRSM offers the following in rebuttal to the claims made by Dee. First, DRSM has searched its databases and has been unable to locate any person named Dee. Further, she refers to speaking to a female marketer, of which there are few. We have spoken to all of the female marketers and none recall a client named Dee nor any conversation resembling that described in the complaint. DRSM marketers have not been advised to suggest clients to close out investments for purposes of paying for services. Even if this would have been suggested, it would not cause trouble with the IRS, as Dee misstates, a person who withdraws funds prematurely from such investments simply has to pay additional fees and applicable back taxes if it was tax deferred. As a precaution, we have sent an additional notice that this type of request will not be tolerated in the future. If you read the complaint carefully, you will notice this person did not sign up for DRSM services (..if I followed her advice..) and therefore cannot possibly accurately state the quality of our service or materials. She also misstates the materials DRSM offers, if you are interested in what DRSM does in fact offer, you can check out the materials yourself and ask questions on live conference calls. There is a 10-day money back guarantee on the initial educational materials. In addition, an internal investigation suggests that the post was made by a competitor, or in agent thereof, who lost many of its marketers to DRSM. Simply stated, we feel this is a fraudulent post. DRSM has hundreds of new clients every month. Surely if it were a bogus operation BBB and/or Rip-off would have many, many complaints. As one can easily see, no such plethora of complaints exists. Should you have any concerns, please feel free to speak to us directly. We look forward to serving you should you decide it necessary. Signed, DRSM Legal council
