Are You Being Fooled By Fake Financial Deals?

Have you ever been approached by someone offering financial returns so great that it must be too good to be true? Bob and Shawn discuss the patterns and tactics that these financial wolves may use to lure you and your finances into unwanted territory. Some of these tactics include the ever famous “free, luxury steak dinner” to entice you and peak your interest. However, these financial advisors can be just like “wolves in sheep’s clothing” when it comes to their manipulative tactics that they use.
