Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence

I have not purchased SOS training My review is based on my experience with having a 45 minute discussion with a sales rep about the program The first thing to note is that SOS conducts a loud and persistent sales effort to recruit people to the program From the moment you schedule the half hour consultation you get bombarded with texts and emails with threats and pushes to keep your commitment to the scheduled time And because their CRM seems pretty broken you get emails and texts questioning why haven t you scheduled the consult yet So right off the bat SOS was on my this is dubious ledger Truly successful programs get sought after not hard sold in my experience You have to ask the question If SOS can return 10 per month why are they wasting time trying to sell a 6000 course During my half hour consultation I asked twice about whether there is any evidence I could see to back up the claim of 10 per month returns I was told that I was being sent emails that would have that information The emails had links to videos which did not provide anything approximating evidence No broker statements no trade examples and no clear information about what the trading strategy is The only clear statement about the strategy in the videos is that it only uses selling of options This is naked trading and any cautious trader should have a plan to mitigate risk Trusting that the trading guru has abnormal success in selecting winning trades is faith based trading and only the gullible or imprudent accept faith as a plan especially so when no evidence is offered of a completely abnormal success rate So I responded by asking in email again whether I could see examples of the trades they are making and what the strategy does to hedge risk This email was not responded to During the discussion the sales rep indicated that I was a person that would fit in with their program and to please ask follow up questions So I can only assume they found my questions objectionable Also part of the sales presentation is to sell the group of other people who have joined the program as great people willing to help others succeed There is emphasis put on the sales screening on SOS wants people who can be trained and are good at working with other people Since being part of the SOS group is presented as a key benefit of joining SOS it raised my curiosity as to why joining a great group of people would be so highly promoted These people are all students looking to learn how to make money so by definition they are not mentors I understand how having discussions with fellow traders would have value but I would not elevate it to being a principle reason to invest time and money learning the SOS methodology So along with my question about getting some evidence about the performance of SOS I asked about the moderation and nature of discussions in the group Anyone with experience on chat groups on Facebook or other social media groups knows how toxicity can ruin the experience so you do not want to waste time there Perhaps it was my question about the chat groups was the trigger that caused the sales rep to quit communicating with me I would not be surprised because the nature of the sales pitch seems organized to recruit followers that will obey Bottom line I was not able to get anything close to evidence that SOS can deliver on its claims and not only was SOS unable to provide extraordinary evidence they were unwilling to provide any evidence This lack of transparency is a no go for me Edit after seeing the reply from SOSAs to the claim that my email response was not received it is in my send folder and there was no error indicated by Yahoo that it was not delivered More importantly note that in the SOS response they do not address my concern about not providing evidence for their claimed extraordinary success rate And as I titled my review extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence I leave it to the attentive reader to make their own judgements as to the importance of this point to their decision
