The Automated Wealth Package sales page looks very similar to many other question sites that WorkAtHomeTruth has previously reviewed. However, even though that might potentially indicate that the Automated Wealth Package should be something you should avoid, I still like to go other over other potential red flags before making a final decision like that.
So this Automated Wealth Package review of red flags does exactly that. Here are the red flags that I see.
Red Flag #1: Automated Wealth Package uses questionable testimonial photos
Currently AutomatedWealthPackage shows 3 testimonials. At least one photo can be found on iStockPhoto:
- Click here to see the stock photo AutomatedWealthPackage.com uses for “Jane & Jeremy C “
You should note that Automated Wealth Package states WAY at the bottom of the page that “Photos used are Not of actual customers.”
Most people will never notice that because of the GIANT yellow arrow blocking that information.
Automated Wealth Package review of questionable “As Seen On” claim using an image like this:
Automated Wealth Package review of "As Seen On TV" claim
- Automated Wealth Package “As Seen On”?
What you need to know is that this “As Seen On” image is completely meaningless. Why? Because ANYBODY can BUY advertising on sites associated with these companies and claim to have been “seen on” them. Therefore as it stands the claim that Automated Wealth Package has been “seen on” CNBC, USA Today, abc, Twitter, CNN, and AOL is completely meaningless and should be completely ignored.
You may have also noted the strange fact that AutomatedWealthPackage.com has placed an asterisk next to the “AS SEEN ON”…but there is NOTHING that the asterisk actually refers to.
Automated Wealth Package Proudly (And Deceptively) Declares That It Was “Voted #1″ by Entrepreneur Magazine
I don’t know about you, but I’m willing to bet a ton of money that good ol’ Automated Wealth Package was NEVER “Voted #1″ by Entrepreneur Magazine or any other REAL business magazine whatsoever. Or maybe waht Automated Wealth Package was “Voted #1″ for was the #1 product to completely AVOID.
Automated Wealth Package May Be Violating The Federal Trade Commissions No Safe Harbor rules
A quick review of the the testimonial by “Shelly” potentially violates the Federal Trade Commission’s No Safe Harbor rule. The testimonial shows Shelley as saying:
“After earning 362 in my week and 507 in my second I’m so pleased I made the right decision to join.”
A review of the testimonial allegedly from “Jane & Jeremy C” stating, “we finally got Porsche we always wanted. “
And a review of the testimonial allegedly from Lindsay as saying, “I’m earning more in a day than what I was earning in a week in my last job”.
David C. Vladeck – Director, FTC Bureau of Consumer Protection has stated:
“…the use of a disclaimer such as “results not typical” is no longer a safe harbor for the claims made in testimonials. Third, while you may use atypical or best-case testimonials, if you do, you should clearly and conspicuously disclose the generally expected
results consumers can expect in the depicted circumstances. Of course, the best practice, and the less risky practice, is to use testimonials that actually reflect what your product or services is likely to deliver. In other words, rather than run ads that give with one hand but take away with the other, it would be better for your ads to give a clear picture of the results a consumer will
actually get.”
I’ll be adding more Automated Wealth Package red flags over the next couple of days. Feel free to ask any questions below or put other red flags that you’ve noticed yourself.
