STAR TRADER - Russ Whitney - Teach Me To Trade - Edutrades, Inc.-Wealth Intelligence Academy (800-570-2050). We went to a 3 day seminar in Charlotte, NC 10-5.
Company was presented as "STAR TRADER" Stock Investment Training. I investigated on line. I looked in Florida State Gov. Website to see if any suits had been filed. (which is where they were located at that time - (Cape Coral FL) and looked up corporate filings & names and came up with nothing out of the ordinary. After very persuasive tactics we bought 6 classses @27,990.
On October 10 we get call from Edutrades, Inc (888-831-6866) offering coaching (guaranteeing you to make large amounts of money to pay off your credit card charged education) The coach will hold your hand and assist you in trading till you get learn it. Their motto is "FAILURE IS NO OPTION!" We fell for thier high pressure sells... This was an additional 13,5000.
Then we realize we are not dealing with Star Trader but this company goes by all the names listed as head line of this letter.
We got weary. But proceeded. They had problems setting up a coach and scheduling our sessions. At first they were nice and helpful. Then less helpful and nice. We started asking questions about some of the things that we were told at the class and found out they do not exist. What have we gotten into???
We requested a refund on October 16 and mailed a certified letter they told us was required. No reply... NO money. They have sent it to the resolution department. We can't get anyone to call us or answer when we call (we have to leave a message on an answering machine).
This was 2 1/2 months ago. NO money - No coach - Can not even get them to answer a phone call or email.
