Hi all,
Just some advice please, I mistakenly fell for the usual selling blag and signed up to the investinthestates.com course. It cost me £6000 and for that they set up a us bank account, company and offer you at least 2 bmv properties in the first year, well they have set up the bank and company etc and I have recieved an email that had a list of properties on it, maybe 20, but I dont know how many people it went out to, but the properties where not really that good for investment. During the free day prior to paying for the course we were led to believe that because the properties where tax deed properties that we would get them at about 50 % below market value.
Now, I believe that the charge of £6000 is somewhat excessive for the return that we got and would like to know if there may be any way I could recoup some of it?

Ask yourself this, if the properties were 50% below market value surely the people "organising" the scam.....sorry I mean couse,would buy them to sell at a profit.0 -
I don't know anything about property,but surely the £6000 was for the course,not for any supposed return?0
