TIVO'g the program lets me pause the program so I can read the disclaimer that they have to put up...but most can't read because its small, white type that does not stay on the screen long enough. Anyway it says that the majority of the people buying the book don't make money. Hmmm? I will have to see what I can learn about that.
The book is $19.95 but they charge an inflated shipping charge. So I don't like that "strategy". Check Amazon.com and you'll see that shipping and handling should be a fraction of that amount. So I think I will pass on that book opportunity and look for it at a yard sale.
....This is an added comment after the original post above. You have to Google Anthony Morrison. There are several customers reporting that when they called to order Anthony Morrison's book that in addition to the $19.95 book price, their credit cards were hit for an additional charge of over $80. Here are some URLs on the subject: http://www.friendsinbusiness.com/board1/index.cgi/noframes/read/160672 and http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r20611890-Scam-Anthony-MorrisonHidden-Millionaires-Infomercial
Here is an excerpt:
n my opinion, Anthony Morrison is scamming everyone. Don't go to his seminars or buy books. He isn't telling any secrets. You can learn so much free from people on the internet willing to share. He is giving bad advice to newbies by starting them in Pay Per Click adverting. His web site is just sitting there. The affiliate is paying the bill and taking the risk of pay per click advertising, banners and what ever else, plus paying $50
a month. Think about it, it only costs about $10 to host your own website. All the affiliate programs he offers you can sign up for free yourself. There are good products out there to teach people internet business. Don't listen to Anthony. He is scamming people big time in my opinion!
Any business that inflates shipping costs, uses high pressure phone sales tactics and, worst of all, adds charges to a customers credit card should be avoided. Now when you read about Anthony Morrison online you have to take it all in with a grain of salt-you may not get the full story in one place. I will call the number and see how they justify charging more than the price of the book. Bottom line: The fact that I can find several consumers complaining about the same overcharge is disturbing and a real red flag.
