pyramid fraud

[moderate]

I attended a seminar of a pyramid trade, what they sell is membership. fee is �1695. i was lured to pay deposit of �200 at the end of the meeting it was like "No! you must do it now, this is your only opportunity." Not a day to think of it there was no terms and condition , no disclaimer, atfer a week i couldnt raise the balance so i requested for my �200. hear him say "sorry buddy, it is not refundable, its already in the companies account. i told you that before"

Believe me he never told me before, i want my money back. what can i do. any legal representation please?. Please advice what can i do where can i go.

be grateful that you got a �200 lesson and not a �1695 one. You can try your local trading standards office but realistically, kiss it goodbye buddy cos its gone
