John Beck's Amazing Profits - Mentoring Of America - Chris Harwood
Ripoff, scam, Fraud, at the very least

On October 20, I allowed myself to be seduced by Chris Harwood into buying into John Beck's ASmazing Profits Real Estate Progtam, at a cost of $9.211.00. I was promised a guarantee that I would have my credit cards paid off in 60 days by buying property and reselling it.

Only after the ist mentoring session did I realize that none of the money paid by my credit cards (3-maxed) was available to buy property with. I called John Beck for a refund and was told that no refund would be issued because of my tape recorded acceptance.

I explained all this to my mentor, Jim Heninger and told him I wanted out, that I had no money to buy land with, and that all my available cards had been maxed out. He said he wanted to speak with his supervisor and would have some information for me next session, (sessions were on Wednesday at 6:00PM)

The following Wednesday, Jim said he had some GREAT NEWS, that his boss had agreed that I had been misinformed, and that they were going to buy my 1st property for me, AND... Add 5 more mentoring sessions, which were extremely expensive. Jim said he couldn't believe they were doing all this.

Session 3 arrives and we go through the motions of "The Course" and after we visit a website, Jim explains that I need to know how to locate a property by it's legal definition and proceeds to walk me through one. It was in the sw1/4 of ne1/4 sec1. And told me a section was 10 square miles. I was amazed, to say the least. Here is a guy teaching me to buy property who doesn't know that a section is one square mile, 640 acres.

I knew immediately, that I'd been had! He finished by telling me the property deal hasn't been approved yet, but will be. I called Citibank and spoke with the customer service lady and explained. She said a credit of $4,200.00 would be issued and she would send the forms for my signature.

I called BofA, and did the same thing, only this guy sounded skeptical, but would send out the forms aanyway. I was unable to get through to Household, but intend to. Anybody got any suggestions as to further action?
