A young black man comes to my door and tells me all about how he's been 'down and out' and has found an opportunity to learn sales with the company—United Doers Management Group out of Washington DC. It was raining and he was wet! A neighbor had just given him an umbrella. I stepped out my door to talk with him. He played up the worth of the magazines and as I asked him questions about the different magazines—he had answers; just not correct ones because I don't believe he had a clue about what ANY of the magazines had to offer.
He told me the minimum amount of magazines that had to be ordered was 3 and it would advance him to the next level that he needed to be at. I'm not so sure as to what he was really learning but, he certainly had the manipulation and 'pitty party' down well! I did decided on 3 magazines for $105.00 and told him that I was nervous that this was probably not something I should be purchasing from him. He tried to assure me that everything was on the 'up and up'. He gave me a tri-folded information sheet and said that if I had problems to call them.
He tries calling his 'GUY' to come pick him up. He doesn't answer andasked me if he could use MY phone to make a long-distance call to this other guy. I let him use my cell. He can't reach him and just continues to STAND on my front porch. He then says that he's starving and wants to know if I have some FOOD. I gave him 2 CHEESE STICKS which he gobbled down immediately! Calling is impossible! No one answers and all message boxes are filled and you can not even leave a message. Over 3 months after I ordered I received the 3 brochures! The cheapest, thinest, most worthless 'magazines' I've ever seen in my life. Quick & Easy Crochet was one that the guy said would "teach" me everything I needed to know. NOT—it is just instructions for different designs. I will NEVER make use of it! I'm furious and there doesn't seem to be anything I can do. DON'T Get sucked in on this. What they have to offer is certainly not worth the money.
