     Hi,
     
     Has anyone become familiar with this association? They are into
     dispensing information (at a cost) in a direct marketing motif to
     educate people on the Federal Reserve Bank, offshore/foreign
     investing, common law, reducing/eliminating taxes, what the US
     Constitution means to "YOU", etc. The claim is there is substantial
     money-making power in the information they have to offer and there
     seems to be an anarchist feel to it (which I find somewhat
     intriguing).
     
     I have more research to do on it but I do have a sense of trust in
the
     person that introduced me to the concept. The fellow leading the
     organization is Keith Anderson and they have all their seminars in
the
     Caribbean or Mexico. It costs $1250 to get their first 12 hours of
     audiotapes of information.
     
     A while back there was a thread here about making money in offshore
     investing. Any connection between those posts and this organization?
     
     Rick

Dear Rick:

Watch out for anyone who feels that they have to hold their "seminars"
(see: sales pitch) offshore.
Do not give them any money until you have all the facts from several
reliable independent sources.
If I were you I'd find out where they are incorporated, check their D&B
rating, check with the SEC and the State Attorney General's securities
bureau in whatever state they are making their initial offering in. Check
with the FTC and the BBB.

Beware of multi-level distributorships and get-rich-quick schemes. Beware
of franchises and dealerships. The only one who usually makes any real
money in these schemes is the original promoter.

IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE IT IS USUALLY A SCAM.
