Rich Dad Education - Robert Kiyosaki - Russ Whitney, Whitney Information Network SHAM Deceptive Advertizing Complete RIP-OFF! Scottsdale Arizona
My girlfriend and I have been scammed by Robert Kiyosaki TWICE! In fact we have found out that Mr. Rich Dad himself is just a front for the EX-CON Russ Whitney. I feel stupid to say that I got scammed twice but it is true. Several months ago in California we signed up for what we thought was a seminar taught by Mr. Kiyosaki but once we got there it was the Whitney Information Network and BOY do they get SLEAZY.
It was NO INFORMATION at all but rather VERY HIGH pressure sales tactics. In fact I got into a disagreement with one of the reps there and he wanted to fight. I could not believe it. I was offended that they tried shame me into buying their $32,000 package. All I asked was what I was going to get for it and they used a bunch of smoke and mirrors but never gave me a straight answer.
I asked to have contact with Mr. Kiyosaki because I could not believe that he would think it wise for me to drop $32K on something I was not even clear on. Their response was blowing me off and laughing at me. A supervisor offered me privately to contact Russ Whitney's other organization (separate from Robert Kiyosaki) to enroll into a cheaper program but would offer the same benefits as Rich Dad Education. I asked why it would be cheaper and he bluntly said "well...we would not have to give Robert his share".
At that point I knew I was in the wrong place to learn how to increase my wealth. These guys, who I'm sure double as used car salesmen, just wanted to find the quickest way taking all of my money. I'm surprised they did not mug me in the parking lot.
Seriously! Oh, I forgot to mention why the one guy wanted to fight me. I saw him speaking to another student I had been talking to earlier and while saying GOODBYE to my new friend I told him to have the guy offer him the "CHEAPER DEAL" by cutting Robert out. Well after saying that I never saw someone get so pissed in my life. I guess he works on commission..hmmm...just like a car salesman.
I also said I got scammed twice. Just last week my girlfriend called me and said she enrolled us into a Reno, NV real estate seminar on May 3rd thru 5th. Later that night I read the confirmation email and found that she enrolled us in ANOTHER RICH DAD EDUCATION seminar. After looking online, and here on RIP-OFF REPORT it is clear that they do this all over the country and in their wake leave a tail of disgusted customers.
In closing I strongly suggest that NO ONE trust anything from Robert "Rich Dad" Kiyosaki. He is just a puppet for an organization that is headed by an EX-CON. WATCH OUT!
