There are a
lot of people out there who just want to get your hard earned money.
Today IronGangsta.com presents 5 ways to make the task of salesman
and con artists a little harder.
1.Identification
One of the
ways to detect a scam is to identify the person or group of people
trying to sell you something. For example, most TV commercials hire
professional actors who would do just about anything to get their
paycheck in the end of the day. The product they advertise could be
of little value to them and yet they will push it in your face and
describe in glorious ways. Always ask yourself – who is that person
in front me and if he has the secret to everything why does he need
to sell it to me so hard?
2.Value
detection
When you are
about to act on some kind of a deal always ask yourself this – is
it valuable? If somebody on the street says: “Buy the newest iPhone
for just USD 100, brand new.” there is obviously some kind of a
catch since the object in question is much more valuable on the
market. The price of a product or service should always be determined
by its value according to the specific situation and not in general
or 10 years ago. What do you get for your money? Shit and chocolate
have the same color and both fit in small packages.
3.Body
language
The
body language of a person, including voice level and ton, could be a
key when trying to identify a potential scam. Usually, if someone is
trying to lie to you they will avoid eye contact and will touch his
face a lot. Of course, all of this is very basic but quite often
basic works.
People
who have severe presence of signs like Cancer, Scorpio and to an
extend Aquarius in their astrological chart tend to also have very
developed inner intuition and can read people more easily than other
heroes of the zodiac. Yes, IronGangsta.com believes in astrology.
4.Confusion
In
order to drive a salesman crazy one should start asking all kinds of
questions in order to make the broker's mind exercise a little. They
hate it, even the good ones. Once you've asked all your questions
start all over again with the first one to see if the salesman gives
you the same answer. It's going to be fun.
5.No
miracles
While
all of the above is somewhat useful and can help you spot a scam the
real secret is hidden in the good old saying: “Too good to be
true.” Very few things in this life represent what others want you
to believe they are and while there might be roses, champagne and
pretty girls on the front door you should remember that every house
also has a toilet and a garbage can where you might be going after
passing through the entrance.
Be aware and remember that nothing in the world is free and you can only cheat humans but not nature.
P.S. Stay away from guys like Robert Kiyosaki. They are all frauds.
