Thanks
Armando Montelongo NOT FREE AT ALL
I too went to a seminar but it was not the seminar it was a high pressure car sales mentality brain washing that tried to convince you to take his three day course for $1500.00 but they said they were only accepting 5 more people yet the conferance room had 30 what a joke!
Armando Montelongo you not only sold your name, your face, but your sole too! Hell waits for you Armando Montelongo it keeps a special place for you that promote greed and self-centered mindless selfishness!
When disease sets in on you, or your wife don't waist your time preying its what you asked for!

Rip off
I attended a free Armando Montelong class. I decided to pay for his 3 day class as he was promoting how to buy Real Estate without good credit, without money, using hard money lenders. It was a very poorly taught class geared only to having you sign up for the next class...$25, 000 bus tour with AM's team. Yes, $25, 000 plus you paid your own transportation, hotel, food, etc.. The lead instructor made it perfectly clear you MUST invest the $25, 000 and go on the bus tour or you simply could not do the flipping business, . If I was informed about the $25, 000 bus tour upfront I would have never paid for a class just to be told I needed to spend another $25, 000;.
I have called the company numerous times and I am always asked if I have taken the Bus Tour yet". When I say no, they can't help me!. What about the money I paid for the 3 day class, why can't they give me the information on lenders to work with like they promised?
Armando Motelongo is NOT trying to Help anyone but himself|. Please do not waste your time and money on anything he is involved with".

Fraud and Deception
I just attended the Armando 3-day seminar this past weekend (December 10, 11, 12) in San Diego, CA and I’m FURIOUS with the bate and switch tactics and deception they used to lure me to pay $1, 500.00 on the seminar. They promised that by the end of the 3 day seminar you would be hand-held through each step by a mentor in order to buy your first property and flip it. It was a flat out lie!
The only things that were taught were general concepts about how the program COULD make you rich with hypothetical examples. By the end of it the seminar, I still have no idea where to even begin. Most of the 3 day seminar was nothing more than a sales pitch to get you to sign up for the bus tour which will cost another $12, 000.00 to $40, 000.00 dollars. What it comes down to is in order for you to actually be taught the entire process of Armando’s system you will have to pay another $40, 000.00 with no guarantees. On the second day of the seminar, I counted the number of times the presentor, Scott, promoted the bus tour and it totaled 35 times. So over the 3 days, he probably promoted the bus tour close to 100 times.
They pressured people with good credit to apply for a Blue Card from American Express which was very loose with their credit and it would be very easy to get a card. They asked you to call any Credit Card company that you do have and ask for an increase in credit. They asked you to borrow money from friends and relatives, sell your stocks, take out money from your 401K or IRA or get the money ANYWAY THAT YOU CAN in order to get on the bus tour or you will miss your opportunity to be rich. Basically, if you don’t pay the extra money you’re not following his system and CAN NOT learn the system correctly.
There were quite a few people who felt that they had been SCAMMED like I felt. One women finally stood up and questioned the presenter, Scott, about when he was going to actually teach us something about Armando’s system as promised. The presenter got angry at her and told her to sit down. A few minutes later they had the hotel security escort her out, refused to give her a refund and threatened to sue her for disrupting the class. She had every right to ask that question and we all deserved an answer because they DID NOT deliver what they had promised us in the seminar. The woman is taking legal actions against Armando’s company and I and other people from the seminar who were robbed of our money will support her in her action.
We were also promised a Land Trust in the seminar which was “worth more than the price of the seminar itself.” That was their direct quote. The only thing the presenter said about Land Trust was to go to Armando’s website and download the form. He did not teach a single thing about Land Trust and absolutely no instruction on what to do.
I have tried to contact the company to ask for my refund but none of my calls have been returned as I expected. I have contacted my credit card company to contest the charge and am waiting for the result.
Sorry, I have not had a chance to check back on this complaint site until now. Did you attend the seminar December 17 - 19? I'm curious to find out what your experience was. Would you like to share it? Thanks.
i will be attending a seminar in Miami on the 17-19. is it alittle worthwhile?
not return of deposit refund
We signed up and paid for a 3 day seminar July 23, 24 25th, 2010.
We attened that seminar and signed up for a special package deal and paid a $5, 000 deposit on our credit card on July 24th for the "Diamond Elite Package" a 3 day VIP buying tour with Armando, to be held in Sept. 2010.
The very next day of the semianr we cancelled-to them at the seminar-they handed us a pink cancellation sheet and said fax it in. We left the seminar.
I called the credit card sompany 7/25-already run through
I called [protected] spoke with Tera she had to speak with a coordinator-I sent faxes to [protected] of the cancellation copy.
7/26 a copy of the cancellation sent certified mail-& received signature of getting it
7/26 sent email to assistant at the seminar-she emails me back and says send in pink copy.
7/28 spoke with Karla-faxed her a cancellation notice again-she said she got the cancellation notice and sure we would get our refund in 10 days.
My husband calls on 8/13 and 8/17 leaving messages-no response
On 8/17 I called again and got Lauren-she said they were to call me back on Friday 8/20 and tell me the situation!-No Calls! and what situation?
8/24 sent an email demanding my deposit back
I called 8/24- got Karla finally- after two calls-now she says my email is being forwarded to Salvtore Ramirez in another department to look into my file-and he is to get in touch with me-we will see!
I cancelled on July 25th - it is now August 24th-they are holding my money!
I, too attended the 3 day seminar and paid $1500! I also agree that this is a scam if your not rich and don't have money to just throw away. The information that was given was not enough to go out and flip a house and I too was, as many others were, talked into the $30, 000 bus tour. One of the coaches there even offered to go half on the bus tour. I would have still had to come up with $15, 000 which was a lot of money and I did not have it. I believe this is a scam if you have no knowledge of real estate and if you are poor. Has any ever tried to get their money back from the credit card company? If so, what do I have to do?
http://www.jailbase.com/en/arrested/fl-bso/2013-03-12/james-harris-501301611
Guess he got what he deserves...
I spent 1500.00 on a bunch of crap. I had a bad feeling right after doing it. But the Pink contract said I had 3 days to get a full refund. So far it's BS I jumped through the hoops they wanted and now they wont answer any phone calls. The seminar starts tomorrow at 8am eastern at the double tree hotel in Rochester NY. I plan to be there to warn anyone who attends this SCAM. We MUST stand together to prevent this ### from stealing anyone else's money. I have called my Credit card companies and disputed these charges but that doesn't guarantee I'll get anything back. WHY because it is not a lagit company. It's a professional SCAM!
I am another that didnt research Armando Montelongo's scam, attended a free me 1500.00. and the infomercial said Armondo would be there, yeah right. For this you get 5 paper back books and 6 cds that say the very same thingbut outdated. They had a group there ( James Harris, Cory Something, Rick McNalley, Johnny Horton, and Ryan "Lotto") that were suspose to be sucessful flipping houses, led by James Harris which was a pep talk about how easy it was to do this, but you need to increase the limit on all your credit cards Now I know why this was to be done(so you could max them out for thier bus trip) and it could be done with no money out of your pocket, (because they had taken it all from you already) as long as you let them hold your hand through this and also you must take a bus tour in CA (that you had to pay to get yourself there and a place to stay for three days) that Armando would personally have many excess properties for his students, only another 24, 900.00.(Boots on ground & Ca bus tour) and that it would be just waiting for you if you got in on the very limited seating, must sign and pay in full today. You cannot fail just sign the contract. I didnt go on the bus trip(pd for it thou) but tried to put together a deal in my own area, but didn't have earnst money which I was told to beg borrow or steal to get it, and hard money lenders wanted you to put some "skin" into the deal to the tune of approx. 20% and pay a fee upfront for thier application (750.00). So as you can see I was totally mislead, and am screwed out of 27, 000.00 dollars. I have in no way received what I have been promised, and am trying to get my money back, with out any luck. I hope everyone that has worked hard for thier money heeds this warning
We also have been taken by this scam. We are trying to get back our $12000.00 that they pressured my husband and I out of, for the 3 day bus tour and a phone Mentor. Alltogether they have taken us for $14, 200.00. We are only trying to get back the $12, 000.00 because of the way the pressured us and told me that if I paid with credit card that I could get my money back anytime before the bus trip. they separated my husband and I during the first 3 day seminar, taking us back one by one and promising different things. Had me pay with three different credit cards and then had my husband go back and sign the contract, which they did not point out that we only had three days to cancel, (I would have never paid if I knew that) which would not have mattered because, the phone number on contract didn't work. We never used phone mentor or sofware and we have not been on the bus tour. Called to cancel and the phone number on contract went directly to a voice mail and then the recording said "the voice mailbox was full try back another time" this continued for over a week. Then I received a email about the bus tour and there was another phone number on it, so I tryed calling it. the person told me "we are in the business of making money, not refunding it". My heart sank I new they had taken us. This is my 4th week and they are not answering any of my phone calls or emails. If anyone konws how to deal with this plase let me know. My husband and I are in construction and we have had a really bad year, about to loose everything, they made us feel like we were never going to make any money if we did not do this bus tour and now we are out $12, 000.00 that we do not have.
Montelongo has not delivered what I paid $27K for either! Whomever else is having problems getting refunded by this thief - we need to help one another. Please let me know who you are. I have been working through local political offices and would like to try media and legal avenues as well. Let's band together to prevent others from being victimized.
I would love to hear from all other victims.
This is a bad -rap...Started out with an infomercial for a free seminar.with Armando on how to buy, flip, homes with no money down and no credit.Went to seminar in Naples got hosed for $1500 my friend and I split to prepare us for a 3 day workshop...Aug 23, 24, 25 in Estero...
They did a bait and switch on us and try to upsale all attendees a $30, 000 package.Bus tour, Calif, Indianapolis, Mentors, HELP !. Well yes we did it...
However the software doesn't work they gave us...
The e-mails don't work either. or they are not responding...
We had a deal on the table and e-mailed for help on Aug. 3, 4 th...from James Harris...NOTHING...WE even had a team call and No lead on line but the team...Call Attorney General Offce in Fla, Caif, Utah..file a complaint...Call WINK-TV trouble shooters...call the better business office for assistance. The Boots to the ground is this weekend..I am calling Wink-TV...any other help would be great...
I can't believe this kind of stuff goes on...
This is FRAUD...
fraud - &bait and switch&
On April 27, 2010, I charged $800.00, discounted from $1, 497.00 retail, on my HSBC MasterCard to pay in full for a “3-Day Workshop Package” (May 7-9, 2010 – transaction #1117) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. After paying, I was given a “Master Home Study Course” as well as a workshop certificate and two so called money back guarantees.
I disputed the charge for “legal services” not received based on what was promised at the seminar versus what was delivered at the workshop. Bottom line, the workshop was used to up sell each attendee to either the Gold Elite ($21, 495.00) or Platinum Elite ($25, 495.00) AMS memberships costing thousands more instead of fulfilling the original contract for $800.00. That is, plain and simple, “bait and switch” which is not only unethical but illegal!
From May 11, 2010, until filing for a charge back on June 02, 2010, I tried to resolve this issue in good faith with AMS. However, all I encountered, from countless phone calls and e-mails, was the run around and finger pointing. Even when I proved to Heather Serrano, at her request, the home study course was nothing more than repackaged free information online (ex. foreclosureuniversity.com) that even contradicted sessions taught at the workshop, she replied their prices for goods and services were justified by Montelongo’s TV show, “Flip This House, ” on A&E.
What follows is an e-mail I was asked to send by Serrano to the attention of the AMS Director stating reasons for the refund along with Stacy Connor’s reply:
Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2010 9:11 PM
To: heather serrano
Subject: Armando Montelongo Seminars Director
This e-mail serves as final notice to refund $800.00 as a credit to the MasterCard on file ending in 0138 for 'legal services' charged on April 27, 2010. The reason for the refund is over promising at the seminar followed by under delivering at the workshop that included but is not limited to:
1. The workshop is complete requiring no more training or investment to get started.
2. All attendees will be taught the foreclosure process in an easy to understand manner.
3. Necessary foreclosure paperwork will be distributed then completed by each attendee.
4. Breakfast and lunch will be served all three days of the workshop at no additional cost.
5. The hard money list used by Montelongo to fund deals will be available to attendees.
6. Contact data for each investor attending the workshop will be distributed to all.
7. An approved contractor list for local rehabs will be made available upon request.
8. 'Master Home Study Course' will mirror the workshop and expand on each session.
9. Each attendee will leave with a personalized game plan based on current funds and credit.
10. Montelongo will make a personal appearance at the workshop either live or virtual.
Bottom line, the workshop was used to up sell each attendee to either the Gold Elite or Platinum Elite memberships costing thousands more instead of providing the promised above. That is 'bait and switch' which is against the law!

To date, no response from AMS, as promised by June 1, 2010, has been received. I’ve disputed the charge with MasterCard as well as filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, Oklahoma Attorney General, Texas Attorney General, California Attorney General, Better Business Bureau, [redacted], Complaints Board, Consumer Affairs, and My 3 Cents. By the way, others at the workshop are demanding a refund also.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
7/7/2011 PHOENIX AZ ARMANDO's 2 hour seminar - He wasn't even there. 3-day workshopt costs $1500 (sign up now) or $3000 (sign up later) & you will need a Land Trust for $2500. Might get one free or discounted if you attend the workshop. My former landlord "Chris" who worked in Real Estate, decided to flip 9 properties at the same time 2006/2007. Made $9000+ a month in rent, but only had the Deed. He didn't make mortgage payments or the water payment. Sounds a lot like what Armando's program advertises... Buy with a Land Trust. FYI it's not even recognized in AZ - not if it hides the identity of the true owner. If you have to HIDE YOUR IDENTITY to work this program effectively, that sounds VERY SUSPICIOUS and probably ILLEGAL in ARIZONA.
The only scam is the one you pull on yourself when you do nothing with the knowledge you’ve been given.
You know there’s gold in the ground. You’ve paid a lot for the shovel. Now stop whining and start digging:)
I hope this serves everyone well my wife asked me if I wanted to go to one of his seminars in Califonia so what was the first thing I did well I did the only thing that a well prepared person should, that is research. If your not sure about something or even if your sure check it out it might just save you some grief.
f**k aramando
f**k armando montelongo,
Montolongo is a fakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee the only good thong about his company is his wife shess freakinggg hot and I will filp her over and over and over and over and over and over hummmmmmmmmm
while montelongo watches
I recieved a call from a Bob Compton today claiming to help me take advantage of the Armondo flips opportunity for a mere 6, 015 dollars. They would like for me to send the money thru a wire transfer. I felt like this was some type of scam immediately. 6, 015 dollars for a a so called online coaching and counseling to look at some DVD they have put together. I don't think so I have learned to check out everything thru the Better Business Bureau and to check for any complaints online as i have found several on this so called business opportunity. I signed up for one of the seminar's but I never attened it. So now they have called me at home. People BEWARE or these SCAMMERS will take you to the bank. The only thing that will get flipped is your bank account or credit card from positive to negative!
All Armando Montelongo Students,
I have been scammed for over $20, 000 with this company. I've seen complaints out there ranging anywhere from $1, 000 to $20, 000+. We don's stand a chance alone. There is a lawsuit right now going against Trump for the exact same thing and the same instructors. E-mail me at armandomontelongolawsuit@gmail.com and lets work together in numbers against this scam artist.
Please tell ALL your friends that have attended this seminar that did not get what they paid for.
I have looked for years for a real do-able way to generate my own real money. I recently read Robert Kiyosaki's newest book "The Business of the 21st Century".
Well, all bull aside I have found it and it’s just not that hard.
If you would like more info on how I am generating about $800 a week aside from my regular job then visit my website. It is not going to be for everyone…

this company when they"re advertising on TV they mislead people into thinking all your going to pay is 9.95 for shipping and handling.but after thirthy days . they are going take sixty seven dollars from your account. just don't give them your account info. i learn the hard way
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
You could try listening to what the buyers are saying. All you idiots have to do is make sure to state to OPT OUT of a recurring charge. Try paying attention next time!
Turquoise... WHO KNEW! You have given such great information. I didn't know about that type of debit card, so... thank you.
I would like to say that I wasn't looking for instant gratification - I was just interested in the book to see what all this was about. Even being curious seems to not be in one's best interest! That said, I should have checked on them, as you suggest.
Reading the numerous accounts of the same story as mine erased any doubt that what happened to everyone is the same - they say they tell you about all these services and charges when, in fact, they don't tell you at all. They say to contact them if you are interested.
So I believed it true and certainly stepped into the quicksand!
Most of the people I encounter believe people are good, that they are honest, kind, have integrity and are ethical. I hope I can continue that belief as I hone my baloney-beeper.
As I said, I filed a report with the Utah Better Business Bureau. If you go to the Utah BBB, one will see that the companies under Premier Mentoring. There are several hundred complaints that the BBB list as some being "resolved". They really don't say how or show the other complaints, which is unfortunate. But I encourage all to file a complaint with the BBB and whoever else one can alert... Attorney General, the FTC, and whoever will help. It should stop.
Thanks again for your advice, Turquoise. I am a bit wiser, hopefully, and won't be ordering anything before checking!

ALL STOP! People, please stop playing into everyone else's hands .
STOP USING A CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD THAT IS ATTACHED TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT . The previous guy who said "he would like to foreclose on them " Well, then do it . It's about strength in numbers ; if everyone would stop making it so easy for them to defecate on you, then they would soon realize that their game is a waste of time.
LISTEN UP! THIS IS WHAT YOU DO .
GET YOURSELF A DEBIT CARD THAT HAS NO CONNECTION WITH YOUR BANK ( YOU CAN GET THESE AT CHECK CASHING PLACES.)
You find an opportunity that you like and then you load it with only the amount you need. I know this is the slow way of finding at-home-work .But, just think about it, if you have gone this long to find a way to make extra money then you can wait another 24-hours. Meaning you keep this independent debit empty at all times until you are ready to purchase 1 item AND 1 ITEM ONLY.If you put more money on the card than what is needed for the package, then they will take as much as you have .
Also, you can avoid any and all frustration with them entirely ; by just Googeling them first . And if you can not find a website, then just Google the title of the program ; and another thing a good way to find out if a company is worth your effort, and this is something else that takes a lot of time, if you are on a website that you really want to investigate, scroll down to the bottom of the site and click on"Privacy Policy" and write to them in traditional mail, just to see what kind of response you will get . DO YOUR RESEARCH EVERYONE! I got my computer 1/23/10 and I knew nothing good ever comes to you overnight . So I did not expect the 1st or 2nd or even 6th opportunity to bloom for me . I am blessed with being very patient . However; It was not until August or September that I started discovering companies that were in business to do business, instead of take from desperate hard working people . You see, they go on the premise that you need to make some money quickly and that you WILL NOT DO ANY RESEARCH. Part of the reason you are getting screwed is that you (according to them, not me ) are asking for it, because you were not one step ahead of them . And I can say this with conviction, due to the fact that I know from experience . Another good tip ; the Federal Trade Commission and the The Attorney General are also great way to find out about companies. As humans we a fallacy... instant gratification and it is usually, not in our best interest .
Slow down people, if you chill out a little bit and take care of your end, the rest will become very clear.
I, too, was taken - "only $9.95 for the book and just let us know if you would like to join". I even "cancelled" (even though I didn't join) with a person who called from the business. I said I wasn't interested. Then I was charged $67.00, $29.95, and another $29.95 a month for the past 4 months. I have never used ANY of their services.
I called and asked for my money to be returned and they refused and said that I should have called different numbers to cancel each "service". When I asked "WHAT SERVICE?", he said I should have known all the things I would get and that they informed me. They never informed me of any of this... just that if I liked the book, I could join the program. I didn't like the book and I didn't join.
The last two months there are charges for "Bob Diamond Foreclosure" for $29.95. Previously it was "Armando Foreclosure". I'd like to foreclose on them!
This company should be shut down.
I have reported them to the Utah BBB and the more of us who do that, maybe things may change. I don't know if they can help, but worth the effort I think.
I've never felt so disappointed. I was a big fan of Mr. Montelongo . now all I see is a rip-off artists. His program is designed to rip people off.
Once again, the same thing happened to me. I'm a unemployed mom of two and went to pay my rent and found out that armando's company had removed $67 from my account as well as another $29 for some other online info that I never ordered or received. I never used his online service for $67 a month. I was never told I would be charged for such service, and I never authorized any such transactions. I am planning on complaining any and every place I can. It is a rip off.
I have not tried it but can somewhat corroborate. I heard the advertisement on the radio and, while interested, I was skeptical if they would do exactly that (charge you just for shipping now, but keep charging you in the months to come).
I called the number to check this out. I asked the rep ("Rose"), how much it costs she said, "you get then book and the CD for 9.95 for shipping." I probed, "I just want to make sure thats all I will be charged. I don't want to pay 9.95 now to be charge like $40 every month for other books or whatever." Her response was, "[laugh laugh laugh] you get then book and the CD for 9.95 for shipping."
She did not say, no you wont get charged anything after the 9.95.. just repeated herself. At this point I knew there was a problem so I search online and here we are. Just though I would inform everyone.
