Yesterday, I purchased something through a persistent salesman that made me think I was of some "selected" and "priviledged" group of people to work with their mentoring program. They got my number from Realtytracs when I purchased some eBooks that Lance Young wrote. One person screened me by asking me my goals, how many credit cards, what the limits were, how serious was I. After the initial pass, I was sent over to Nathan Elder. He was the one who, after some more talk, and convincing that I was selected, and that my experience would be personal, and assured me that I would be contacted by end of day or the following day by Mentor/Coach, I gave him my credit card information and charged $4500.00. Before I gave him this information, I asked him what was their website, what would happen if I was unhappy or that I wasn't just letting someone scam me out of my money. He told me that they delivered the eBooks like they promised, and I could always dispute my credit cards. After I gave him my credit card information, I was transferred to his assistant Rachel, who told me I had 3 days to change my mind.
I didn't sleep well last night. I knew this wasn't going to be for me. I contacted Rachel by email, and also left several messages. I was finally contacted by Rachel, and she told me she would start the process to refund my money, and that I would have to speak to their Client Services Director, Mark Veron. Shortly after that conversation, I received a phone call from Nathan who got upset after I told him that I wanted to continue the cancellation. He then proceeded to tell me I was a quitter. He also told me that they would have to collect 10%. I told him that there was no disclosure. I told him that I never received the conditions, and what I heard from Rachel is that I had 3 days to change my mind.
I left a message with Mark. I will be speaking with him tomorrow, and will make an update.
After finally researching them by getting their name from the Email I received yesterday, and after they told me that they would keep 10%, I found some postings about them on this site. I should have researched them before I gave them my credit card information. I normally am not so gullable, but I believed I was somehow working on Lance's Youngs team! How crazy is that.
