SCAM ALERT: Debt relief schemes like this one

The image they're selling is a lot different than the reality most people experience from "debt relief" schemes like this
_








WARNING -- DEBT RELIEF OPERATION OUT PROSPECTING FOR NEW VICTIMS --
THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THESE FIRMS CHARGE A LOT OF MONEY, UP FRONT, TO "NEGOTIATE" ON YOUR BEHALF, AND YOU HAVE NO WAY TO KNOW WHAT, IF ANYTHING, YOUR MONEY WENT FOR (and they write the contracts in a way that guarantees that they get paid whether you get any debt relief or not). 


Remember, unsecured debt is just that -- it's debt that you can eliminate in bankruptcy, they can't repossess the goods you bought with the credit cards.  THAT is your leverage with the credit card companies, NOT the fact that some GFS-like outfit is in the picture.

Reputable financial counselors don't use the same sales pitch techniques (the supposedly testimonial note from "Nancy Harper," the blizzard of exclamation points!!, the pitch to get you to give them all your financial info before they tell you anything of substance) that the credit card companies use.  If you are in over your head in debt, the best thing you can do is contact an attorney licensed to practice law in your state, or programs like Legal Aid in your community -- stay away from internet come-ons offering fantastic tales of debt elimination.
===========

This really works for people!
It worked for me!
  I have tried for a long time. To get out of debt! Until one day, I heard about debt settlement!
It is an aggressive way to get out of debt ,and fast!!! So I had a free consultation from one of global financial analyst’s. They sent me a free debt kit to look over all the options out there.

With all the pros and the cons of each.

I had over $43,000 in credit card debt.. I went with Global Financial Services program and saved close to $18000, and was out of debt in 22 months. It was amazing for me and my two boys! I have extra money in my pocket every month and I don’t have to worry about not being able to make my minimum payment every month.

Thank you so much GFS, you really changed my life!                                        Cindy Harper

If you’re struggling to keep up with your monthly credit card bills you’re not alone, millions of Americans are heavily in debt and having trouble making the minimum payments on their credit cards. We understand what you’re going through, and we’re here to help! Our debt negotiation program is designed to show consumers how to get out of debt as quickly and smoothly as possible.

Debt settlement is a proven system through which unsecured debt is negotiated down to a fraction of what is owed. In exchange, the creditor agrees to forgive the balance, and the account is settled in full. Debt settlement is the most viable option for consumers to get out of debt in the shortest period of time and for the least amount of money.
