The Secret Society
The "Secret Society, " located in Dover, DE, attempted to scam me out of $139.95 for the promise to send me a 1,200 page "heirloom" manuscript, which they claim contained all the secrets necessary, spe

I received a letter on August 16, from the "Secret Society, " requesting that I fax back to them, no later than August 20 (or have postmarked by 8/20/10), to receive a 56-page "Orientation Manual, " which is the first of two installments from the Society. The Orientation Manual was free. When I received it, it contained five stores of individuals who supposedly went from "rags to riches, " and claimed that I was one of the "chosen few" who possessed the special talents and/or attributes to be as successful as they were. All I had to do was send $139.95 by August 27. They indicated that if I did not send in the money by the 27th, I would be too far into what they called "cycle two, " (which, they described as "breaking bondage..." whatever that means), and that if I waited longer than the 27th, it would be too late. That should have been the first "red flag." In their original letter, they made a point of telling me that the letter they sent was mailed "first class" and not "third class bulk, " thus, attempting to validate the legitimacy of the information contained therein. When I spoke with my husband about this his immediate reaction was "it's a scam... Run a "google" search on "Secret Society Scam."" And sure enough, I found PLENTY of information on this organization. None of it pretty! The Society contacted me this afternoon (8/27/10 at approximately 12:30 PM), identified themselves, and I said "you're calling from the society?" They said, "yes." I had left a voice mail the other day, stating, in no uncertain terms, that I knew they were operating a scam and that they would not receive even $1.00 from me. The gentlemen I spoke with (Charlie) indicated he had not listened to my voice mail (which I found odd, as I left the message days ago), and I then told him I had done my research on the "Society" and that I knew they were perpetrating a scam. He laughed very uneasily. I then said, thank you very much, and hung up. I wish organizations like this could understand that they are placing false hope in the minds of many vulnerable people, who do believe that they can "get rich quick, " if only they knew how. The Society proclaims they know EXACTLY how to do this and that all of their members will ultimately become "filthy rich, " essentially. This organization needs to be shut down, at all costs (no pun intended). The have no right to take people's hard earned money and send them a bunch of worthless material in return, that will get them nowhere. They know what they're doing is wrong, and I will report them to every anti-scam agency I can find in order to put them out of business!
