It’s probably not a scam. It’s probably not a scam; but it is a waste of money. Richards has discovered the art of selling books by continually talking about future disasters that only he can forwarn. When you subscribe to his letter you will be bombarded with one offer after another to subscribe to more expensive letters with little or no track record. Altucher is more of the same. I strongly advise staying away from Agora. The last time I contacted their “customer service”; the response back was we don’t monitor customer service. Pathetic!

Stay away from Agora Financial Stay away from Agora Financial, James Altucher, Alan Knuckman, et al. The "advice" they sell does not produce a net gain in the value of your portfolio. Some recommendations work out profitably, but the ones that do not will cause you to lose far more money than the profitable trades. I began the above-mentioned Agora services in May of 2018. By December, I had made $8500 through their recommendations, but I was $25,000 underwater in sold puts that expired short of the strike price. Many purchased call options have expired worthless. I knew going in that option trading was risky. This has been a costly experience that will take years to fully recover from.

James Altucher AlphaBrain James Altucher has provided a wealth of financial information and taught me a lot about using leverage and options. But with his service you don’t need to be constantly reading up on the latest goings on in the financial markets, you can just use his buy and sell signals to generate impressive profits. For example his latest AlphaBrain service has produced profits of 20% to 30% each week for several weeks in a row. Excellent stuff! Keep it up!

Avoid Agora Financial They promote highly misleading "info products", newsletter services etc - the current scam is a load of deceptive guff about Brexit severance cheques which can be "claimed" by UK citizens. If you subscribe (for a fee of £37 followed by further amounts of around £100 per year) they will tell you the "secret" of how to claim these. There is no "secret" - it's just a reference to the share dividends paid by listed companies and anyone can get these by buying dividend paying shares. Same company owns Moneyweek magazine and also use a number of other names including Southbank Research, Capital and Conflict, Betting Rant, The Daily Reckoning, The End of Britain etc. (Agora Financial UK Ltd.

I signed up for one year I signed up for one year, $49.00 filled out Bank Card and I was in, the next day I was sent an e-mail saying the bank rejected the payment and I needed to fix the problem, I knew there was enough money to cover the $49, looking at there email I saw they had put an extra $100 on the claim and as I only had enough to cover the $49 it bounced. I felt this was a deliberate attempt to force me into a 2-year contract with them I decided to check if there are any reviews, thanks to everyone I will deal with Agora tomorrow. Am I lucky or what?
