Starting Over Talk - Peer Coaching Support Site

Kevin Trudeaus is a Charlotin...he has been heavily fined and put in prison for scamming people....In his book mentioned in this post...he leads people to believe that he knows how to cure cancer, heart disease and many other life threatening diseases...but he offers no answers in his book...to supposedly recieve these answers, one must go to his web site and pay to join.....still no answers on the web site........he is currently being investigated by the US government once again for FRAUD!

This guy makes a sham out of everything he touches!!

I got his first book an as Audio Book. I find it quite interesting. Yes, he's a great marketer who is making a ton of money by getting people to sign up for his site but there is some truth to a lot of the stuff he talks about.

Curiousity hasn't gotten the best of me yet though...I haven't actually signed up for his site...lol

He is a great marketer... I wouldn't waste my time defending his reputation though... LOL... he seems defensive in his book about allegations made about him.

My daughter signed up for his site... not much more info... she has since cancelled.

I am checking out a lot of what he talks about re health issues and cures. He seems to be reporting about issues that are controversial, but throughout states it is his opinion. The good thing about the book for me is that it has made me aware of ingredients that may be making one sick.

Have you learned anything useful from his first book? Please share.

You all reminded me that I bought this book last December. I haven't read the whole thing..need to get it down off the bookshelf and open it again. I don't know about the curing cancer stuff, but I do know, I wouldn't pay to join anyone's website. If I remember correctly, alot of his stuff made sense. Although, much of it was common sense...I did learn some things. So thanks for the reminder...I'll check it out again.<br><br>Post edited by: Ciera, at: 2006/11/05 19:40

I had to do an internet search on him to find out who he was. At first I was thinking Gary Trudeau. When I saw his picture I immediately knew who it was. One hit I got was about him being banned from doing infomercials.

That's where I'd seen him before. At first on one product then another.. I automatically thought of him as a salesman only... trying to hawk a product.

The infomercials I saw involving him more often than not made it look like a talk show. So it could easily draw people into the topic..

I think one thing I saw him hawking was some sort of memory enhancing product.

Here is a link... it happens to be from a 'quackwatch' website!

I was skeptical with the things I saw on the infomercials. I didn't know he was an author too. No matter, I didn't lose a penny!
The format of the infomercial to me was a red flag.

I fell asleep with the television on last night and woke up to him promoting his book on tv this am. So he is not banned from doing infomercials in my neck of the woods.
