		<description>Hey everybody, 

I wanted to share some things you could actually learn from Shawn Casey: 

To enroll people in a comtinuity program is quite common and very affective. I am sure he does not hide this on the order page (would quickly get his merchant account shut down). Just cancel the membership once you get your &#039;free&#039; dvds. 

He charges you shipping &amp; handling (or 1 Dollar trial) ONLY TO GET YOUR CREDIT CARD and cover for the cost to get you as a lead. 

Why the hack would a businessman give you stuff for free? He will do his best to give you something worth more to you than the price he asks. 

Just contact his company for a refund before you jump to conclusions and publish them in the internet. There is a high chance you get the refund. 

And some positive thinking: 
Someone financially successful will not waste a minute complaining about getting ripped off - he will make sure he gets his money back. Period. If you want to become that someone, here is your chance to start!</description>

		<description>Why wouldn&#039;t you just call 800-750-3436?  that is why companies put the numbers on your cc and bank statements.</description>

		<description>I realised I was being charged $99 a month by 800-750-3436SHAWNC ASEY DULUTH GA.
It started while I was away and had paid the card company for 3 months in advance, but these payments then put me in arrears and have cost me a $50 late fee and interest for at least 2 months.
I have given no instructions for any monthly service (possibly I purchased a one-off early in the year).

I found an address and wrote to it; it was difficult to find a way on the internet to send an an email, perhaps impossible.
It is there again on my card account due tomorrow.</description>

		<description>After reading these responses I think I made a mistake trusting in the &quot;Business in a Box&quot; and &quot;Mining Gold&quot; not to mention the &quot;Gold Plus Affiliate Program&quot; which I am still Doing but with some real concern. I joined several months ago and I have been using all the things he has suggested. I got several domains and I signed up for Blogs, Hubs, and social Networks like My-space, Face-book ,You-tube, and Google. I linked my websites to the &quot;Gold Plus Affiliate Program&quot; campaigns 1.Internet In a Box 2.Desperate for Money 3. FAST(fast affiliate system) 4.Auto Pilot Profits 5. Headline Creator Pro. Not one Cent has been generated to date and now I received a message that these programs are being deleted or deactivated within 48 hours. I submitted a ticket to gold-wares support and was told it is being updated as yet no replacement. Now here is my problem, I received a call from Shawn Casey&#039;s coaching staff stating that for my success story they will mentor and coach me. They want me to do what is called O.P.M. That is using Other Peoples Money to run my business, and of coarse I should get it from a web site http://www.instantopm.com after getting the credit call them back and invest the money in Shawn Casey&#039;s system to make money from their coaching me. something seems fishy to me. I have had medical problems and can not afford to loose or invest without a real return.</description>

		<description>I just received a bank statement and Shaun Casey took $200.oo from my bank account. I never even heard of him .How can scum bags like this get away with internet fraud. taking peoples money without their consent or knowledge. And how does he get bank info? I work hard for a living and now I have to go through all this banking garbage to get my money back (if I can).
HOW DOES HE SLEEP AT NIGHT KNOWING TAHT HE DID THIS TO PEOPLE.???</description>

		<description>I was unfortunate to have fallen for this Guy and his henchmen who phoned me several times after I had been foolish enough to fall for his &quot;free&quot; CD offer, only catch was I had to pay the Postage $9 and change, so at that point it should have rung a bell. Well around 5-6 weeks later when checking my bank statement I discovered an amount of $110.00 taken from my bank account by guess who, you guessed it &quot;Shawn Casey&quot; and all from me using my Visa card for the postage of the &quot;free&quot; CDs. Now don&#039;t that beat all? I start out wanting free CDs and end up being charged an extra $110.00. I can&#039;t see how one transaction for postage can end up being used for a second transaction which I never knew anything about, and have not even seen the free CDs Yet. May be it is for his henchmen ringing me up, but whatever it is for, I have tried to contact him by email without any luck and as far as all the Spam that I get from him it is endless. I have tried to stop it but when I use the opt out option in his email, well it goes nowhere and comes back saying there was an error etc. My hope lies with Visa now who assures me that you can&#039;t be billed for another  second unrelated transaction some time later without the consent of the cardholder. That was my experience with &quot;Shawn Casey&quot; so does any one know his email address where emails go and get to the party concerned? Your Help Please!!!!.</description>

So you are a nice man that wants to share the wealth in these troubled financial times. You want to give a little back to people right now, because you feel so fortunate that you are making so much money at present, that you want to give a little of your secret away. How generous of you. You know , I feel you are not that man at all. Unfortunately, some people are going to buy into your deal, and it might be their last 27 bucks, but times are so tough for the American people right now, that they will grasp at anything. I might have learned something from you sir, but you set no example at all. Your a Millionaire, and I can pretty much figure out how you got there. Where is the goodness in people. My gosh, If you kit was for free, I probably would have wanted to gift you some bucks at some point for helping me. I am the kind of person that thinks of what I can do for people, FOR FREE when I make a Million. Not became so rich that I need to make Millions, and then Millions more. How much does anyone really need but to be comfortable. You probably did work hard to get where you are , and of coarse you are going to continue to get rich by selling people these kits, and I really hope it works out for them. These are tough economic times. But the excess some people have is , quite frankly , embarrassing. So please sir, don&#039;t invade my my JUNK mail ever again with a free offer, that cost 27 bucks. My sister is a lawyer, and she will hear of it.Karma sir. Be happy with the money you have made, and share it. It will make you even richer. Sent this to Shaunm and it came back to me 2wice. Postmaster failure</description>

		<description>I agree with Antone.  Casey, from what I was told by someone &quot;in-the-know&quot; at a seminar is far bigger a marketer than many of the &quot;TV gurus&quot; you see in infomercials.  

If he were doing something wrong the FTC would have hit him.  In my opinion he&#039;s one of the Goodguys.  The place to look for the scammers is on the Clickbank.com marketplace in my opinion.</description>

		<description>Wilton: &quot;and now -lke you-know its fraud&quot; -- I don&#039;t &quot;know&quot; any such thing. I&#039;ve never had a bad experience with Mr. Casey. As for &quot;where he hangs out&quot; so the FBI can track him, I&#039;m sure they&#039;d have no trouble finding that out on their own if they wanted to.

The FTC is cracking down on internet fraud lately. If Mr. Casey is defrauding people, I&#039;m sure he&#039;s a big enough player that they&#039;ll get to him soon enough.

Since I haven&#039;t heard of any such thing happening, for now, I&#039;ll stick with my personal impression -- that while not everyone is happy with his marketing methods (which is going to be true of ANY marketer, no matter how squeaky clean), he&#039;s not defrauding people. If some people have had trouble with transactions with him, I believe it&#039;s unintentional.

Sure, I could be wrong, but that&#039;s my take on it.</description>
