Ponzi Scheme.

Bernard Madoff, the alleged mastermind of a $50 billion Ponzi scheme.
When the market is bullish,tons of financial planner or adviser,some are self-proclaim and unlicensed will be scouting around for their preys who do not wish to miss the bandwagon.
With the onslaught of the current financial rout,investors will have learnt their bitter lesson.
Nowadays,the financial instituitons are more of a supermarket selling and pushing all sorts of by-products to the unwary clients who put great faith in their brand.Their bottom line is profit to shareholders.They also manipulate with themes and tango to the tune of the market situation.
So those free lunch seminars are real good traps set upon us so that we subscribed to their offerings.
The internet is also full of ponzi scheme such as this and many others....Autosurf.
I have tried this A3Union with USD25/=paid by e-gold,got scammed after 6 months.It has representatives in Brazil,China,US,Australia,Argentina and even organised a grandeur seminar in a posh hotel in downtown Manila.(Philippines).
Beware!!all the presentation templates are look alike.Even you and me can buy one and set it up.Cost between USD50-USD300.
