My experience with PMG and Robert Allen has been horrible. After several calls from various representatives from these companies I was told that I was being considered for mentoring. I was going to develop a web-based business with the assistance of this mentor. I was led to believe that this web-based business would be an extention of my existing service business. The representatives from these companies assured me that it would indeed be a compliment to my current service business. All I had to do was secure some OPM - Other Peoples Money. What they mean by OPM is to get as many credit cards as you can.
I got over $7000 in credit. The representative said "YOu'll be entering at a much higher level." Higher than what? These calls took place over Christmas. I was to receive a package in the mail. SInce the mail took so long to arrive I had my first "mentoring" session and received my package the same day. For $7000 I was expecting quite a bit of information. When I opened the box I found a sportswear catalogue. This is what $7000 buys. I packaged it up the next day and returned the box via UPS from a Mailboxes Etc.
The "mentoring" was a joke. The guy, Paul, just read from a script word for word on a website that he told me to look at. I did not continue with the mentoring after that first session and have been trying to get my $7000 back ever since.
When I discovered this website I was angry that I had been scammed, but also somewhat relieved to know that I am not the only one. I have been working with my credit card company to try and reverse the charges. I am adding my experience to this website so that others will not be lulled into the fantasy these companies use to steal Other Peoples Money.

Greg, So wonderful that you've received a refund. I was also scammed by PMG and am awaiting a refund. Devon said he was going to take out $900. as a processing fee. Did you get a refund for the whole amount? Any ideas how I can get my $900 back? Let me know, as I'd really like to recover my losses.
