These folks offer a variety of investment newsletters, all boasting huge returns as examples. The pitch for the Passive Income Trader newletter offers a long list of penny stock trades that averaged 25% gains each, and suggests that all one need do is wait for text-message trade alerts, act on them, and the subscriber will see similar performance.
I was tallked into a trial period for this service after attempting to discontinue a suscription for another service run by Market Authority. During the trial period, it became obvious that this company is merely exploiting the age-old pump-and-dump scheme.
The first trade alert issued resulted in a 100% loss, as trading of that particular equity was halted immediately by the stock exchange. Clearly, Market Authority did not do their due diligence, and recommended to their subscribers a worthless ticker with no company behind it.
Following that fiasco, they began issuing "paid announcements" which were merely broadcasting of stock promotions. This is information widely available for free, and certainly is not worth the high price of the subscription.
Then they started issuing almost daily "buy" alerts on a wide variety of micro-cap stocks, all of which performed abysmally. This is NOT the service that is advertised. This is a scam. One need only look at the charts of the stocks to imagine where these charlatans got in on a stock and where they issued a "buy" alert.
I wrote and called to cancel my subscription, but was NOT issued a refund. The fact that Market Authority refuses to refund my money is indicitive of the kind of people they are and the kind of ripoff they are running. I suggest you run in the opposite direction.

Title Inaccurately Names James DiGeorgia

I read the submission while researching James DiGeorgia and saw his name in the title, but nowhere in the rest of the review is he named. I also researched the "Market Authority" Passive Income Trader investing service named and he doesn’t appear to be a current member, but was unable to determine if he was a past member.
If he’s not a past member, it’s unfair to lump him in and makes everybody’s research that much harder.

Log into the P.I.T. website, and you'll find that clicking on the "Commentary" link merely takes you back to the homepage (gee, one wonders why), and that clicking on the "Track Record" link gives the follwing results:
GWBU | 25.00% |
VLNX | 25.00% |
PRTN | 25.00% |
TAGG | 18.18% |
SVEN | 25.00% |
FARE | 25.00% |
ECAU | 13.10% |
SWVI | 25.00% |
GOFF | 17.54% |
XUII | 25.00% |
ARTH | 24.77% |
PCWT | 13.24% |
PWEI | -94.12% |
-94.12% for PWEI is generous, as many investors lost 0, since trading of that ticker was halted by the exchange, and when it was lifted weeks later, one would be extremely lucky to find a buyer. This chart also does not include recent Buy Alerts, 3 of 4 resulted in losses.
