Has anyone read that Kevin Trudeau book? |
|
I ordered it, skimmed it, and got to a chapter where he was listing things, I can't remember now why, but about #60 or so was "Scientology, try it it works". For the second time in my life I threw a book in the garbage. Now my boss is reading it and insists that he can't find that in the book. Was I mistaken, or is it there?

Wasn't this guy found guilty of fraud or something?
At any rate, the book seems to be largely aimed at getting people to join his website (for ten bucks a month). He seems to be a charlatan preying on people's paranoia about the medical profession. It does seem to have some of the more obvious homeopathy treatments, but its still a cheesy money grab by a known swindler.

6. I bought the book, and refused all the other options, |
|
like the news letter and the e-mail updates, and lo and behold, 2 months later I got a hit on my credit card for 80 bucks for the news letter. Called the 800 number and the guy I talked to sounded weary of these unauthorized hits. Go figure.
