I received numerous e-mails and finally a postal mailing from this company wanting me to join their club. I saw several complaints about them on the web and their devious practices. I did a little research of my own and I am copying and pasting it here for everyone to make their own determination. The mailing claims they are a BBB Accredited member and that is true only for the Minnesota BBB. The Minnesota BBB gives them an A+ rating in spite of the reports of scams! I guess if you pay enough in dues you can get any kind of rating you want. Well, read through the paste below which is directly from the BBB site dated 04/20/2010 and decide for yourselves. I will not be responding to this company in any fashion.
