Consumer Alert,
BUYER BEWARE, the telephone solicitation scam king is back at it again. Ken Monteiro, Kenny Monteiro and or Kenneth Monteiro is back trying to lure people into believing if they try a new game in which we believe he stole from a competitor is trying to convince consumers that in a tournament type setting they have a chance of winning $250,000. Ken Monteiro after scamming people for millions of dollars over the past 30 years is looking for his next victim and hopefully you are reading this article in time before that person is you, we believe the game is not good and that the prize money may not be real, he is claiming to have an insurance company backing the tournament if someone wins, if this is true and has any merit at all you can believe that insurance companies do not like to pay and if they are given any reason at all not to pay THEY DON'T, so winning anything may be difficult. This product is under funded and a loser and most likely not be there long term. Mattel has a tough enough time launching products that are well capitalized and turning them into house hold games for the entire family to enjoy and it is my belief that the product is not only under capitalized, but it is poorly manufactured with a liability being in our opinion a pure ripoff of a popular board game that has been around for many years with quality being compromised.
Ken Monteiro has focused on scamming consumers via the telephone for many years masquerading as law enforcement, firemen and other municipal agency officials and his biggest claim to fame is how he personally took money from over 100,000 consumers in which resulted in millions of dollars in revenue. He also claims that he is the best telephone solicitor that there ever was or will ever be and claims he is going teach people the art of selling over the telephone via high pressure tactics, please keep an eye out.
Roomer has it that his last boiler room "badge deal operation" has shut down in Woburn MA and consolidated to Newton, MA because of the economy the company claims, but a former employee with the company stated Ken had ran it into the ground and he could be potentially facing a prison sentence as a result.
Result: Ken has personally hurt thousands of consumers and continues to find new ways of stealing peoples money (BOARD GAMES). At some point in time the public will his actions should catch up to him and as more consumers take a stand against Ken and the companies he is affiliated with could result in a prison sentence that will not allow him to continue misrepresenting consumers with badge deals or poor quality underfunded board games and predatorial type tactics.
Anytime you receive a call from anyone, please make sure the person or company calling you has permission from you that allows that person or company to solicit you. If you ask them how they got your phone number and they can not tell you and provide you with a copy of the permission slip giving them the right to call you, that person or company can be fined up to $1,500 per violation and can result in you receiving a judgment against those individuals of up to $10,000. Please make sure you get as much information as possible and contact you local Attorney General for advice and they will guide you to getting the money you could be entitled to for receiving such calls. MAKE SURE YOU DOCUMENT EVERYTHING.
I RECOMMEND THAT YOU RUN AWAY AS FAR AS POSSIBLE FROM THIS PREDITOR AND THIS PRODUCT AND PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW HIM TO PRESSURE YOU INTO IT.
BUYER PLEASE BEWARE

mattel is dead wrong

i know kenny monteiro for over 10 years and he is a honest hardworking
christian family man who has only good intent and has never tried to hurt anyone mattel is just jealous the kenny can create a good product and just feels threatened by his thrive to succeed. Kenny has references from many law enforcement and fire departments in the state of ma. You could even check them directly through the police and fire stations that they work from so it will verify that they are for real. I'm am pretty sure that the Mattel complaint is not really them and just someone who knows kenny and is making trouble. He knows alot of police officers and fire personnel that would back him up. Kenny is just not the kind of person to pull other people into his fight. call me for there names and numbers 617 417 6468 I'm sure all you people against kenny will be to scared to challenge me and never want to here the true from my voice do yourself a favor and close you mouth i will make you eat your words.

It seems like a trivial point, I was aware that "roomers" was copied and spelled wrong. It is spelled "rumors". Most people know this except the person who filed this report.
However, the correct spelling in this rebuttal should have been "tainted" not taunted.

FREE ENTERPRISE BOARD GAME

FREE ENTERPRISE BOARD GAME
SUPPORTERS OF THE FREE MARKET BEWARE, Goliath aka Mattel in their attempt
to squash a small enterpreneur Ken Monteiro aka David had to resort to false
truths, fabrications and slander, in order to prevent a competing product from
entering the marketplace . Wasn't that big of them? Proam Marketing is a
small start-up trying to compete in the board game market. I am Ken Monteiro
and I am the inventor of the game Free Enterprise. Instead on letting me
compete and fail as they are so sure I will, they had to attack me and other
fine companies. I would like to address Mattel accusations and let the public
come to its own conclusion.
1. Mattel needed to claim they believe I stole the game from a
Competitor don't they know, with all of their resources couldn't they have
found out, I challenge them to prove that I am not the inventor. Every Freedom
loving Americian should be appalled at what this company did to try to prevent
me from succeeding.
2 The grand prize is covered by an insurance policy from a company that told me
they have paid out over FIFTY MILLION dollars in the last fifteen years, not
bad for a company who doesn't like to pay.
3. I have never called anyone claiming to be a police officer, fireman or
with any municipal agency. I have in the past worked on behalf of many organizations, with
police officers by my side, to raise money for death and disability funds
of police officers who risk their lives to protect us and keep us safe. Mattel
called this work a scam. They should be ashamed of themselves, what they should
do is go talk to the family of a police officer who was killed in the line of duty, and
tell them not to take any money from the association. Mattel should understand that many organizations, at times, need to hire skilled labor to get things done. Some would say
companies who sell taunted lead products are scams. If fact I
think, selling taunted lead products has become far more of a liability
then my product design will ever be.
4. Roomers, how can a major corporate like Mattel, with all the sophisticated information gather technology they must have, attack me and
make disparaging remarks and build a case on what I have done or not done on the
basis of "roomers." I hope they don't run the company on
'roomers" Mattel never called me to gather any facts or
information. I would have been happy to talk to them They just
decided to make up stories as they say based on roomers. Roomer has it Elvis wonks at a Burger King but we all know how untrue that is. If fact, it is just as
untrue as what they are saying about me. What Mattel did is just another sign of corporate greed. This is the Christmas season of
09 and unlike their unethical and immoral comments against me, I hope that
Mattel sells a lot of toys because that is how Free Enterprise works
. And I also hope Mattel stays in the toy business and out of the
"gossip" business and doesn't find itself in need of stooping to
these kinds of unscrupulous tactics against me or anyone else.
I hope that every law abiding citizen will call Mattel let them know how
you feel about this matter. Their number is 716-687-3000
