Push Money More Con Than Scam.....
Yes, I allowed myself to be made a fool yet again. Curiosity is a double edged sword, which I have fallen on several times. This is my experience dealing with the Push Money people:
1. Deposited $250.00 like the add claim was the absolute minimum acceptable to setup my free account.
2. Money was received by Wynn Finance.
3. Was granted access to a beta test screen for trading, but not granted full access to really change
any of the settings like setting the trade amount (set for $25.00 per option).
4. Chose 4 of the options of the 16 showing on screen as open, which never changed.
5. Selected two puts and two calls.
6. Received e-mail from Jason Stark requesting a phone call 6465685528.
7. Dialed the number: eventually got to the point of requesting I fund the account with $5000.00,
$500.00 was only mentioned in passing and the words of the company matching my $250.00 to make the $500.00 initial broker offer was never explained.
8. Next I received another e-mail from Dennis requesting I fund the account. I check the account and it is no longer showing a balance of $150.00, but is zero and no trace of the initial $250.00 deposited.
9. Could no longer get in touch with Dennis via e-mail or Jason via phone, but another PMA message requesting funds for my account needed immediate deposit to yet a different brokerage company other than Wynn Finance. This company's name is CTO.
10. On-line chatted with Timothy Brown, who assured me, he could make things happen provided I give a $1000.00 deposit instead of $500.00. Had a lovely chat with Mr. Brown about scam artists and realized I was not scammed, I was duped into believing I could change my fate with a $250.00 gamble.
11. The ending is quite remarkable: PMA-Wynn Finance is returning the $250.00 to my account according to the e-mail after speaking with Mr. Brown. Was asked to be patient due to 5-10 business days as of 9/2/16.
12. Lesson learnt. Always do the research on the source of excitement and never jump out of desperation at an otherwise bad opportunity due to lacking funds.
