Lou Basenese has a new service over at Agora called The Takeover Alert ($1,750), and he’s all but promising that he can identify takeover targets in advance… and give you the chance to make $29,000 profits from stocks that surge dramatically in just a day. To which the first response from any reader should be, […]

Robert Williams Moneybomb. H.E.I.S.T from Agora Financial. Travis do you know about this?Hi Travis Have you seen the latest promo by Robert Williams about Trumps MoneyBomb from his new Tax Plan. They use the formula H.E.I.S.T. He states you can turn $1k into $2.5 MM. Hard to believe and with a $2k fee to join to get the information. Would love to know your thoughts . Thank […]
Text: Unlike a lot of CDs, the MarketSafe® Emerging Currencies CD doesn’t pay periodic interest or even an annual percentage yield. Instead, it’s an indexed, U.S. dollar-denominated CD, and its performance is tied to the gains and losses of five currencies over the course of the CD’s 3-year term. The five currencies are the Brazilian […]
This week I’m seeing a new wave of questions about this Jim Rickards ad from Agora, and the ad itself has been (clumsily) updated a few times since we covered it back in November of 2017 (the last version with the “by March 19, 2019” deadline even suggested that Yellen was still President of the […]
Here we have another teaser email promising a rescue for those of us who’ve seen their 401k accounts fall by 50% (or more) … more proof that you don’t have to be sexy to get attention with a teaser ad today, you just have to imply that you can help to save the kind of […]
This ad has popped up several times over the course of the year, and it’s now running again with a slight variation — mostly to change the “urgent” trade date from April 15 to November 9… so I thought we should take a quick look. The basic idea is that Robert Williams has a team […]
The latest newsletter to head our way via a big and mysterious marketing pitch is called The Palm Beach Letter, signed by a guy named Mark Ford — who is apparently the same dude as Michael Masterson, who has for a long time been a big name in copywriting and self-help “work from home” marketing […]
Does anyone know what the above is?
He is teasing this new young biotech company but I believe he is wrong. Merck put out the Keytruda drug, approved by FDA for Melanoma and also lung cancer. I’m pretty sure Carter used Keytruda. These immunotherapeutic drugs (Like Keytruda by Merck and Optidiva by BMY) have proven remarkable, but do not sound like this […]

retirement play along with 5 other Trump penny stocks set to explode.
We’ve got a veritable smorgasbord for you this week — first, a quick update on one of our Real Money Portfolio stocks, then I’ll take a very quick look at the “Seven Deals” teased by the new Rick Rule Alliance pitch by the Money Map folks, and, finally, I’ll dig into the little hints that […]
Nikola Tesla has probably gotten more attention in the last five years than at any other time since he passed away during World War 2… for a while it was enough that the car company named after him was a daily headline generator and stock market darling, but now he’s also being connected to work […]
Today we look, for a change, at a UK company — this teaser comes in from the folks at Fleet Street Publications (the British partner of our favorite newsletter megalopolis, Agora), in an ad for a letter called Dr. Mike Tubbs’ Research Investments. The letter appears to focus on breakout technology and biotech stocks, with […]
This particular ad hasn’t actually been completely lambasting my inbox this week, which is a surprise since the “cure for obesity” stocks usually gin up quite a bit of interest — being overweight is, after all, the plague of our time of overabundance and the cause of so many of our ills, both social and […]
This latest teaser ad is all about owning a “piece of an idea” — owning something valuable that gets you royalty payments, or payment for the “rental” of that idea. It’s a little bit similar to the old “Mainz Income” royalties, which were teased as a way to get recurring income that (we were told) […]
Higher-end trading advisory from Manward Press, which was launched as an Agora affiliate in 2017 and promotes itself as “publishing ideas that lead men to richer, fuller lives that overflow with freedom.” Andrew Snyder previously worked for the Oxford Club and other Agora publishers.
Anyone else listen to and has anyone subscribed to this US credit doom scenario and his advertised special reports? or just any comments on this guys work?

Jim Rickards new expensive site purports a secret black key used by wealthy ”elite insiders” whereby you are allowed to see the biggest and fastest potential instant gains months before they happen. And, of course, he’s going to do his best to keep this secret website open for as long as he can, but no […]
I’ve gotten quite a few questions about the “Cash from Gold” pitch out of Agora Financial that hints at how easy it is to get “instant income.” So that’s today’s focus for you, dear readers. The big push at the end of the ad is “Yes, I want to collect at least $1,500 per month […]
Options-selling newsletter from Zach Scheidt, offering weekly recommendations of options trades — advertised as selling put options.
Premium-priced newsletter that aims to ride the boom in defense spending by investing in smaller “defense technology” firms and contractors. Seems to have taken the place of Agora’s previous Military-Tech Alert.
The latest ad from Agora Financial’s Defense Technology Alert created a deluge of “what are those super contact lenses?” questions here at Stock Gumshoe, so as we dig out of the weekend teaser pile this one clearly rises to the “gotta answer it first” spot. What’s the story? Well, the ad is for Defense Technology […]
I have purchased $79.00 subscriptions from various newsletters published by Agora Financial. I have always found their Customer Service to be pleasant & accommodating- Has anyone found the same asking for $550.00 after only 2 weeks ? When the magic info about Trump bringing back all this money from Foreign accounts with no 35% tax […]

I recently signed up to Palm Beach Confidential (which does actually seem quite good). Had a phone call today from an Agora salesman who explained that ”by mistake” they had signed me up for their top end Palm Beach Infinity package, which includes their other newsletters (more or less worthless to me). Wouldn’t take no […]
This is the intro from the ad we’re considering today: “Jim Rickards: Halfway to heaven, in a location with life-threatening temperatures, a little-known company is about to unleash… “‘God’s Gold’ “15 TIMES the concentration of the average global gold mine, this deposit contains arguably the highest-grade gold on the planet. “And one company trading for […]
Newsletter helmed by Jim Rickards and designed to profit from his expectation that gold will go to $10,000 — mostly picks gold and silver mining companies.

The latest pitch from Breakthrough Technology Alert, the high-priced tech “upgrade” newsletter from Agora Financial, is certainly over the top… this is how it opens: “Witness a Miracle Made Real “A shocking, exclusive video below reveals the most urgent market story of your lifetime. “Your fast action today could kick off lasting generations of wealth […]
Anyone seen the new Agora pitch for ”Miracle Surgery” that cures paralyzed / spinal injury?
Newsletter promoters LOVE dates — using a specific day in the calendar, preferably a day within the next month or two, gives a sense of urgency to an ad and makes you feel like you have to sign up RIGHT NOW to avoid missing out on the profits that can be made. And Agora is […]
11/15/16 SHLD closed at $12.30 down .50 for the day. News on the street is that suppliers are concerned the company is headed for bankruptcy. Money Map Press touts a Buy at the close for a $5.00 PUT on Jan 17, 2017 at .35-.50 Agora Financial touts Zachary Scheidt’s method of selling short to create […]
We’ve looked at a lot of Jim Rickards ads over the past couple of years, most of which either promise rapid-fire profits from currency options or predict huge gains for gold and, perhaps, a return to gold-backed money… today’s pitch is another one of the latter, it’s an ad for Rickards’ Strategic Intelligence. The hook […]
I’m just copying this all from the promo because I can’t figure out what it means. What it promises definitely might look promising, perhaps. Herewith, my paste: 26 years before the birth of Bitcoin, three rogue entrepreneurs created a radical new investment. A venture that turned every $10 stake into $11,899 over 19 years. It […]
