Quote from SusanaDT:
Are you suggesting that I should report him to the commission instead of informing the community ?

Susana, I'm not suggesting to you that you do anything, I'm simply telling you that you are working very hard to build the business of a person you hate. It's a well known tactic in the marketing world, and in fact some of the very best marketers in the world actually pay people to do to them what you do to Alex (I'm not suggesting btw he pays you, I tend to believe you really don't like the guy).
In case anyone is apt towards thinking I have no clue as to what the hell I'm doing when it comes to marketing, I'll post this link that I posted in ET a few weeks ago, which showed what ONE of my websites did that week in GROSS sales.

Anyway, you can do whatever you want. You can even think your helping to keep unsuspecting newbies out of Alex's "web of lies", and in fact you will discourage a certain number of people. But, you will cause far more people who are sitting on the fence to decide to give it a try then you will ever convince not too. It's not something that makes sense, but it's something Universities have spent a ton of time to research, and large companies have spent billions of dollars to research and it's true. You are bonding people to Alex, making them more likely to buy from him, by your efforts here.

PS, if your truely interested in the subject you should check out Influence by Cialdini, you can find it on Amazon for about $10. If your in sales it's easily worth a million.
