Female VO: There’s no shortage of false promises out there. You might have gotten a letter, e-mail or text; or seen an ad or infomercial on TV.
They tell amazing stories about people—just like you—who made lots of cash and secured their financial future. Unfortunately, the payoff doesn’t match the promise.
Male VO: Act now! Opportunities are limited!
Female VO: Nope. Take your time. Don’t let anyone convince you that you need to act now or risk missing out.
Investigate the business. Ask for their one-page disclosure document.
And be skeptical about testimonials. The organizers may have paid people to lie to you.
