Kevin Trudeau

Gail of Waialua, HI September 10, 2009

I bought Tredeau's "Natural Cures" book. I threw it into the trash can. Along with the book came a "free" monthly newsletter. It was free for the first month only. After that, it was 5 a month. There was a phone number to call if you no longer wanted the newsletter. There was not one person that ever answered that phone number. I went to my bank and they blocked them. I did received the newsletters for the next year. It was now "free" junk that was costing him to mail.

WATCHING TV...ALMOST GOT KEVIN TRUDEAU BOOK, BUT DIDN'T...DID THE RESEARCH FIRST...

This guy is a real piece of work. A while back I bought his book on natural cures but he turned out to be naturally full of crap. I didn't have a clue who he was when I bought the book and did it out of sheer curiousity at the time. It didn't hurt me financially but the people he's really targeting it does. The FTC thought they had this guy shut down when he agreed with their ruling that he could no longer sell products through infomercials. All that did was lead to his book publishing career which they could not do anything about.

But one thing I believe might help in the fight like this would be a slight modification in the law. Actually, you would not be modifying it at all but rather, making sure that everyone knows it is a law. You see, anything sold on TV, including this clowns infomercials, has to come with a 30 day money back guarantee. Some people know this but it seems most do not.

So, it sounds real impressive to a lot of people when he's sitting there pumping his book and saying that the reason he's giving people this 30 day money back guarantee is because of how confident he is in his information. That's a joke! Nobody should be allowed to promote a product based on a guarantee when that guarantee is mandated by the federal government.

I purchase one of his books call "Free Money" and the books promise to lead you to website and assist with down loading of how to attain free money. His book and the website just lead to a dead end road taking you around in circles, with no real results. Once you figure out the scam the thirty days you have to send it back has expired and you are left feeling ripped off. I am requesting all of my money back including shipping and handling. Thank you very, very much if you can help me with the issue.

I ordered the FREE MONEY book. It was the biggest waste of my money & my family is barely making it right now in this bad economy. Not only was the information, stuff I already knew, it was out dated information!

I was up late and watching what looked like a network product show and was convinced to buy Kevin Trudeau's newest book Free Money but decided to google his name and found my way to this site. Upon reading some very current and eye opening posts saved me time, energy and money. THANKS to everyone that posted and shared your experience with Kevin Trudeau and his so called Free Money. I thought it sound too good to be true. THANKS EVERYONE!!!

This man should go to prison for fraud. Do not order anything from this man. He is preying on the innocent - making empty promises. His other books promise the information you are looking for in the book by subscribing to other services he sells. Save yourself money and heartache, avoid at all costs.

In the book Free Money I wrote to all the address he put in the book and got return to sender from the Post Office no long at this address. The address are all olut dated or don't exsist. I ask for a refund and haven't got one.

After viewing an informercial which looked like it was part of the Home Shopping Network, I decided to order Kevin Trudeau's Free Money Book. Unfortunately, I did not research Trudeau before ordering. Part way through the order I told the operator I wanted to cancel because of all the additional offers and actually felt like it was a bait and switch situation, since I was encouraged to pay extra money for the latest addition of Debt Cures.

I was told at that point I couldn't cancel the order and would need to call a customer service number to do so. This was before the operator had finished offering me everything from Walmart gift cards to "free" magazines. It seemed this company really pushes items that require monthly charges to your credit card. I had not been given a total or confirmation number yet, but I was not allowed to cancel.

I called the customer service, as instructed, only to be told that they can't cancel orders. I was told that the order was already in process and there was no way to stop the order and my only option was to return the books when received and absorb the shipping charges. I told the operator there shouldn't be any way that it was too late to stop my order since I didn't pay the extra 9.95 to rush my order. I was told my order would be shipped the next day and my information would not appear on her computer until then and it would be too late to cancel. Fortunately, I realized I could work with my credit card company and stop this company from charging my account. It did require me to cancel my card and receive a new one.
