This was good timing for me, especially because Timothy of Fort Worth filed his Rip-off Report when he did. I was suspicious from the beginning, but I need another income and have to be at home as much as possible. I am a caregiver for my husband who has Parkinson's. Timothy put forth the facts very well and he believed these dishonest telemarketers or else he wouldn't have spent so much money. The rebuttal from Wealth Systems confirmed everything I suspected about the way these people do business. The responder said "The current receiver likes to flex and he is doing so once again...". How many times has Wealth Systems been shut down "temporarily" by the Federal Trade Commission? How many times have the "defendants" had to appear in court? I do not wish to be associated with such people. The responder says the company should be operating again soon....DO NOT DO ANYTHING WITH MY ACCOUNT, DO NOT USE MY CREDIT CARD NUMBER, DO NOT USE MY SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER. To do so would be a fedral offense as you so well know now with the Federal Trade Commission on your tail....AGAIN! Thank you very much for the information. I am fortunate that I have not been billed yet for the $1,009.00 and I have filed a dispute over that amount with American Express. The information about the current FTC receiver flexing once again will help my case immensely. I am sorry for any other person who has been ripped off by Wealth System's telemarketers. How many other retired people living on a small, fixed income have been promised so much "help"? We are told,- if you don't have the money, just use your credit card. They don't care if we have to pay 21% interest on the credit card. I am so stupid to have been taken in by smooth talking salesmen who said they wouldn't risk their jobs or the security of their families by not telling the truth. THANK YOU TO RIP-OFF REPORT FOR THIS WEBSITE. I WILL GLADLY GIVE A DONATION TO HELP YOUR EFFORTS TO KEEP OTHERS FROM BEING SCAMMED.

Our office was taken over by the FTC on the 3rd of the month, that is why you are getting full mail box's and no response. The current receiver likes to flex and he is doing so once again by shutting the business down temporarily. The defendants were supposed to appear in court today but it has been postponed to Thursday. The offices will be open in the near future once this is all settled.
