This is not a scam. World Financial Group is a financial services company headquartered in GA. We help families and business understand how money can be used to secure their retirement and for business to reduce their taxes. Unfortunately, this business isn't for everyone. This is for people who want to be in charge of their lives and not be dependent on a job where someone can lay them off at anytime.
I attend job fairs so that I can approach those looking for a career. It's strange how people be so negative on something they know nothing about and instead of finding out the facts they spread untruths. There are thousands of WFG associates helping families and businesses and are very successful.
World Financial Group
3350 East Birch Street
Suite 200
Brea, Ca 92821
While at a job fair called Hire Live located in Orange County, I met a woman at the front of the Hotel where the fair was being held. She claimed to be working for a Marketing company hiring for middle management positions. Then she asked for my resume, that night the same lady named Mary Cacosa called and left a message on my voice mail stating, "My manager and I looked over your resume and we were impressed with your resume and your career accomplishments. We like to offer you a chance for an interview If you could call me back at 203-768-2229." I then checked the receipt of the message and a different number came up (714-924-3756).
The following day I returned her call she claimed to be working for a Marketing company called World Financial group and hiring for middle management positions. Again, her name is Mary Cacosa and she wanted me to return her call at 203-768-2229 originally she called from 714-924-3756. The address she gave me is 3350 E. Birch Street Suite 200 Brea, Ca 92821. The time that we set the interview time for next week--Monday the 17th at 1 p.m. I kept trying to ask more questions but the lady said to write any questions that I have and we'll go over them with you. She also wanted me to bring three references with me and to dress in appropriate business attire.
Thank you to all of you, for posting your past experiences with this cruel scheme targeting eager job seekers. For those of you who have not viewed the other postings both male and female cons have used different names and phone number's--this company is only interested in collecting $100 to supposably run a background check on you. T
P.S. The job fair I attended is legit companies who are actually renting booths and interviewing candidates seeking management positions for reputable companies. The lady I met was not at a booth located inside the hotel--she was outside the building wearing a business suit and walked up to me as I was about to enter the hotel. When I had asked her for a business card she reply that she had already handed all of them out.

What's it like having such a lousy excuse for a "job" that you have to go on sites like this and insist "it's not a SCAM"? Fact is, almost nobody has a job like yours, because it would make most of us physically sick to have to defend this kind of thing. You know, we don't see representatives of legitimate companies having to come on here and claim they're not a scam. Pretty much only the scammers seem to have to do that.
You must be a really strong person to be able to perform a job that would make most people sick, to be able to shut your conscience almost completely down to make a "living". Thank God such a select few like you are condemned to this kind of work, because most of the rest of us would never be able to handle it.

I usually only post on "American Income Life Is A Scam" as I have personal experience with that MLM company; however, it looks like World Financial is very similar, so I'm passing along some information that I hope you'll find helpful..........

MLM: Once Legitimate, Now a Scam
Once upon a time, multi-level marketing was a legitimate business which provided a way for small companies to get their unique products to consumers in small towns and rural areas which had no access to these products. At this time, the products sold themselves, and the multi-level aspect was a way of giving a small reward to those who had worked hard to build the organization. But the focus was always on the product.
Today, and especially with the growth of the internet, it is possible for consumer to get about whatever they want at competitive prices. There is simply no real need for distribution "systems" as there once was, and indeed the focus of all the programs is not on the products they sell -- which are usually either bogus or are available somewhere else to the public at the same or lesser prices. Instead, the focus now is solely on recruiting new people…………with the idea that those people will recruit additional people who will also buy into the program……….
Thus, today just about ALL of the multi-level marketing programs are scams. In today's internet economy, there is simply no need for multi-level marketing or the overpriced products that they sell -- meaning that the only thing they are selling are memberships in anticipation that future memberships will be sold in the future, which is the classic definition of a pyramid scheme, and thus securities fraud…………..
The Drop Out Rate
The "Drop Out Rate" of MLM programs is enormous -- 98% will drop out immediately, meaning that only 2% will continue with the program over any long period of time. The Promoters will tell this 2% that they are the "successful" ones -- what this means is that they have become "successful" scamming other people (who will probably spend their money and then drop out, possibly a big personal loss to them but a profit to the Promoters).
The Promoters know the Drop Out Rate, and know that by far most people will buy in, but then never sell anything and quit, which is one of the reasons why MLM programs are criminal schemes.
The Promoters also tell those who stay in that they are the "well-motivated and lucky ones". This is 100% false. The people who never sold anything and dropped out are the lucky ones, since they will not be liable for securities fraud or any of the related criminal penalties that goes with promoting somebody else into the program. It is the people who stay in the program who are risking some prison time and a felony conviction for selling an unregistered security.
On the "American Income Life Is A Scam" thread, we've also been discussing how similar MLM companies are to cults. I'd be interested to know your opinion once you've read it, seeing as you've had firsthand experience with an MLM. Do you think the same points about cults apply to this company?
It's a scam,they give you wrong advise more like stealing you money by paying high premiums. So they can get ho 19th commissions I like to take action Eg making a documentary on how they steal your money please reply
