So I was hopping around the net and saw the 'smokeless cigarette' ad @mydigitallife....and this reminded me of a tale told to me by the people working at ccs of a even more 'sinister' company in the ports mouth area..This company has had many names and many faces but the 'tactics' employed never changed..
This is how a 'call for that' usually went..
you called in looking to quit/heal something with the help of some product they offered for free on the tv and gave a 1800numbers to contact a rep..So this product has shipping and handling requiring the 'use' of a credit card and once that hurdle was overcome, you are already 120$ deep a being 'picked' for a 60+ dollar monthly fee for refills of the cartridges or pills or a fake 'service' like get rich quick realestate listings...
In the regards to 'quitting cigarettes' many verbal attacks are used to analyze the callers 'need' for x product. such as:
Do you want cancer? Do you want your kids to get cancer? Are you a healthy person? 'why' do you not want this to 'help' with your struggles..is it the 'cost'?
much worse has been described to me.. But I hope the picture is somewhat clear.. if not please post about the area you want to understand more..
