Kevin Trudeau - Scam Artist

I really get a kick out of this guy. He is so believable. But I decided to do a little (~15 minutes worth) of digging. Man, the dirt on him is incredible. Turns out this guy sells his books, then charges people a monthly fee for his website. Even if they don't want it. Nice!

I wanted to find some people who read his recent book "The Weight Loss Cure" and found out this is what he is advocating.

On the TV ad, Mr. Trudeau says that it is a simple thing to do. He claims that you will lose at least 30 pounds in 30 days. He claims that after you lose the weight, you can go back to eating WHATEVER you want, and never gain the weight back.

60 strongly advised recommendations you have to do, among them are:
15 colonics from a licensed colon therapist.
I have talked to someone who gets colonics and she said it is $150 per colonic.

3 or 4 Thai massages in a week.
Avoiding florescent light
He claims he did this without exercise, then he recommends walking daily for one hour out doors.
Eating everything ORGANIC.

Avoid air conditioners, and ice cold beverages.

HCG (human chorionic gonadatrophin).
A growth hormone extracted from the urine of pregnant women.
It is NOT FDA approved.

And that is just some of it. Are you kidding me?
