Have you thought about investing in Gold or Silver, but don't know where to start? A search on Google or Amazon will find many books and information devoted to the following: Why you should invest in Gold and Silver? The different ways you can invest in Gold and Silver like bullion, commodities, and stocks. What the Insider secrets are to buying Gold and Silver. How to make money on Gold and Silver? This is all necessary and good information to know, but not what you will learn in How to Buy Gold and Silver Bullion without Getting Scammed? Instead this book focuses on how to buy bullion without getting scammed versus why or what form of gold or silver you should buy. Information includes: How to spot fake bullion? How to tell if you're getting conned? The tools and tests you need to avoid fakes. What scammers do and say to cheat you? 13 ways to prevent getting taken. The Pros and Cons of bullion investments. How to get money back if you're cheated. The Pros and Cons of some storage options. ALSO INCLUDES: resources, glossary, weights and measures, and an about author section Now ask yourself, how well your investment will turn out if you buy a fake? At current bullion prices, any profits could disappear. And this doesn't include wasted time, hassle, and embarrassment of dealing with crooks and the police to get your money back. Having this book's information is a small price to pay to help ensure you are getting the gold or silver your investing in. This is the main step to ensure your investment has the best chance of working out. Now why should you believe me and buy this book? The main reason is I have over thirty years of sales and investment marketing. In this time I have meet plenty of buyers and sellers of financial investments, some honest and pleasant to deal with, some charming, but not so honest. As a result I have seen, heard, and experienced almost every trick that a cheat, con or scammer uses to steal people's trust and hard earned money including mine. So this isn't the phony, buy this stuff now and you will be a millionaire in 5 minutes advice. This information comes from dealing with and suffering burns from society's cheats and con artists who are to lazy and greedy to make an honest living. Added to this experience are the methods bullion scammers use to create fake bullion and what you can do to spot it. I hope you not only buy one of the books that explains the how and why of bullion investing, but also this book to ensure your bullion has a chance of making a profit. In closing I hope you won't think like many other people that this won't happen to me. This is because according to current estimates more than 30 million people in the United States fall victim to some form of financial fraud. The estimated cost is a staggering $50 billion yearly and rising. The real cost is much higher because most victims don't report their losses due to embarrassment and shame. So let's make it harder for scammers to take your hard earned money and trust from not only you, but also from your family and friends who I hope you will give this information to.
