Elitest speaks out (scary)

Heh. Kevin Trudeau or what’s his name? Seems like a nicely-propagated scammer who switched to books full of such things. And I even know a guy who buys his every single word.

Nothing scary about that. Nothing elitist either. Just boring. I can’t imagine why the OP got excited enough about the guy to post a link to him. He’s just a liar and fraud. If he scares you, you’re apparently too foolhardy and gullible.

[quote]Because of pyramid schemes and other illegal activities in relation to these promotional activities, Trudeau has been embroiled in a number of civil suits, felonies and misdemeanors, resulting in arrests, convictions, fines, and jail time. . .

In connection with his promotional activities he has had a felony conviction and has been an unsuccessful defendant in several Federal Trade Commission (FTC) lawsuits.[39][40][41][42][43] Trudeau has been charged several times by agencies of the United States government for making claims without evidence. In these cases Trudeau signed a consent decree in which he did not plead guilty but did agree to stop making the claims and to pay a fine. Trudeau subsequently began to sell books, which are protected by the First Amendment. . .

Trudeau was convicted of fraud and larceny in the early 1990s.[45] The FTC has sued him repeatedly and keeps an extensive record of its conflicts with him.[46] A court order currently restricts his ability to promote and sell any product or service; however, he is permitted to promote books and other publications due to free-speech protection under the First Amendment as long as they are not used to promote or sell products or services and do not contain misrepresentations.[7][8] On November 19, 2007, a court found Trudeau in contempt of that court order for making what they consider deceptive claims about his book The Weight Loss Cure “They” Don’t Want You to Know About.[47][48] In August 2008, he was fined more than $5 million[49] and banned from infomercials for three years for continuing to make fraudulent claims pertaining to the book. The amount of the money damages was later increased to $37 million. . .

In 1990, Trudeau posed as a doctor in order to deposit $80,000 in false checks, and in 1991 he pleaded guilty to larceny. Trudeau had used the credit cards of eleven customers of a mega memory product to fraudulently charge approximately $122,735.68.[51] He spent two years in federal prison because of this conviction. . .

Trudeau began working for Nutrition For Life, a multi-level marketing program, in the mid-1990s. In 1996, his recruitment practices were cited by the states of Illinois and Michigan, as well as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Illinois sued Trudeau and Jules Leib, his partner, accusing them of operating an illegal pyramid scheme. They settled with Illinois and seven other states for $185,000 after agreeing to change their tactics. Michigan forbade him from operating in the state.[3][4][5][6] A class action lawsuit was filed by stockholders of Nutrition for Life for violations of Texas law, including misrepresenting and/or omitting material information about Nutrition for Life International, Inc.‘s business. In August 1997, the company paid $2 million in cash to common stockholders and holders of warrants during the class period to settle the case. The company also paid the plaintiffs’ attorney fees of $600,000. . . .[/quote]

Hell, I won’t bother copying and pasting the rest of his bio, because it’s all the same: he does the same crap over and over and over, telling lies, scamming, committing fraud, and has been arrested and sued and fined millions of dollars over and over and over for it.

Why the hell would anyone care what he has to say?
