Is Wealth Builders of Planet Antares a scam?
I got this thing in the mail, basically a "blah blah blah, make thousands while sitting on your ass" kind of thing. Its inviting me and one guest to go to a free lunch at the Marriott while we listen to some pitch about "amazing money making opportunities", as the letter puts it. Naturally, I’m skeptical. But the letter says it not a sales seminar, that you shouldn’t even bring your check book because there’s nothing to buy. They say you’ll come away with valuable information. So I went online and read some articles about it, with mixed reviews, the majority leaning towards negative. But there was one comment from a man who said he’d done vending machine sales for decades, and he said "It was NOT too good to be true. It was the laziness, ignorance, and OUTRIGHT stupidity of prospects that caused this business not to work." And he wasn’t the only one that said it. So it sounds like this doesn’t work for most people, but it can if you’re not lazy and work hard at it. So, I’m thinking about going to the seminar (with extremely skeptical expectations) but I’m still concerned its just a scam. Is there anyone that’s done this, or at least gone to a seminar, that can tell me about it from experience?
Also, the main complaint I’m hearing is that the potential profits are misrepresented.
You are going to be pressured to fill out an application – which naturally will include much of your personal information: name, address, phone number, etc. If they are REALLY bold, they will ask for your social security number and drivers license number. I think most of these types of things are information gathering events rather than being anything that would actually profit you.

The positive testimonials are coming from the people who stand to make money off either you signing up or giving them your personal information. Stay away, in my opinion.
