The ad can say, "want to find out how to save 5,000 on your taxes, send 1.00 plus postage for this new updated information"...po box.....whatever.... ok so many will be what? no way, but there will be 1000's perhaps more that will say yey, its just 1.00...
so they send in the 1.00, a white piece of paper arrives that says things like, how to save on taxes and its a statement from internet or a top 10 list you see... 1. write off all medical payments, etc.....

now image 10,000 people in each state doing that....10,000 x 50 = yup 500,000


so there it is...

is every bit as false and misleading as the scam you are showing. This has nothing to do with Trump.

Maybe there is hope...



https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Lapre
According to a June 15, 2011, Associated Press article, Lapre was indicted by a federal grand jury in Phoenix, Arizona, on June 8, 2011, on accusations of running a nationwide scheme to sell worthless Internet businesses. Federal prosecutors accused Lapre of bilking more than 220,000 victims out of nearly $52 million. He was charged with 41 counts of conspiracy, mail fraud, wire fraud, promotional money laundering, and transactional money laundering.[9][10][11]

A federal judge issued a bench warrant for Lapre on June 22, 2011, after he failed to appear at his arraignment.[12][13]

On June 27, 2011, Lapre was arrested in Tempe, Arizona, at a Life Time Fitness center, where he had reportedly lived for two days, with serious self-inflicted knife wounds to his groin. The wounds led authorities to believe Lapre had attempted suicide while at the Lifetime Fitness by attempting to sever the femoral artery in his legs.[14]

Death

Lapre died in custody from an apparent suicide on October 2, 2011, while in jail awaiting his trial, which was scheduled to begin on October 4, 2011. Lapre died from severe blood loss after cutting his throat with a razor blade.[1] The autopsy report stated that Lapre died of massive blood loss and had wrapped himself in sheets to conceal any blood loss from prison officials.[15]
