Speaking about another scam (I think) was we were invited to a presentation by a buying club where you can buy household appliances, furniture, etc. at low prices. They had expensive brochures and there were about 25 people there for the presentation and we were divided into about 5 groups where sales people made their pitches. After the presentations we were told that we had to make a decision that night or we couldn't participate. Couldn't even think it over. This supposedly was a national buying service but I can't remember the name. When we were told that we had to make a decision that night we beat a path to the exit.
