I received this "Invitation" yesterday. did a quick Google search to find it's a scam! Apply the old saying if it's too good to be true something is wrong. Also reading the letter kind of creeped me out with all this 'The Society' said they know about me. That's just weird! Virginia

I just got this crazy letter that looks like 20 pages long to read. I knew it was a scam~!~!

So I shredded it after I researched the Society and sent the empty envelope back with the words:

"NICE TRY LOL" and riped my name off the bottom and any where else it was located.
Signed Northeast Ohio

Received my "Invitation" on June 1 dated May 20, 2021. They promise fame and fortune if I first attend a "Secret Meeting". Well over 70 and have been around the block a couple of times, when it is SECRET and coded it better be a military operation. I shredded so I guess I'll have to remain poor and relatively unknown.

Got the first letter a couple years ago. Thought it was interesting but tossed in trash. But since then have got at least four others. If you send it in they want $139.95 for thier 1216 page manuscript ,after they send you a 55 pages booklet to tease buying manuscript. If not sent in by Friday your cost is $240. Of course there is a secret message in the 55 page booklet. These have came from Ohio, Arlington Tx & Utah. Of course the 2300 year old secrets to wealth , power, & love. Are in the manuscript I’ll let you decide but I’ll keep my $ 139.

I purchased the book for $139. I was curious and I had some money, so I bought it. The Society/Neotech is a creative presentation to sell marginally interesting books for insane prices. There's no magic love/money/health information in the first book. Once you buy it they tell you that the next book has the code to unlock the secrets you did not uncover int the first book. I won't be buying another book from them because it IS a scam. The story (the Super Puzzle) in the first book is about a teacher who teaches her students some principles of Capitalism and everyone becomes wealthy, gets married to their dream dates and lives happily and healthily ever after. It's a feel good fantasy that reads like it was written for school kids. Very simple language. It will not change your life in the least. The physical description of the book itself is not true either. It's big and DOES have 1200 pages, but it is not leather-bound and ornately appointed like it's described. It's a big red paperback.

I went on the internet to get more information about it. I learned that it was written by Mark Hamilton and he inherited a publishing company from his father and has been marketing his books as the secret answer to fulfillment of all your dreams in life. Once you buy the first one, he starts marketing the second one to you and on and on. When you think about it, it's a very creative marketing technique. Promise the world and get the money.

I just saved you a boatload of money,,, you're welcome!

I have a book for sale too, it's called SWERVE and it will not fulfill your every dream, but will probably entertain you for a spell. It won't cost you $139 either. It's at Amazon Books, just type GL Franklyn in the search bar and there you have it. If you have Kindle, you can even read it for free.

they don't really know all that much about you, just your name and address, They pretend to know, I ordered this book back in 1989 or 90 and they were operating under the name Neotech and it too was $139. back then, the pages was thin like a bible, and after reading for about 15 minutes I saw they were evil, and said "we don't need GOD or Jesus in our lives, only their book, and I packaged it up and sent it back, they refused it and sent it back to me, no refund, I eventually threw it into the fireplace and burned it about a year or so later, although I an wondering if the manuscript has changed any over the years, was tempted to order to check it out more closely but the deadline is past, I think the deadline is just there to create a rush to order, I dont think they are going to turn down any order that comes in even its 6 months or more past the deadline, the money is what they're after, If the secrets make them all this money its obvious they are not successful at it , if they were, then why would they be selling this book to bring in money if they are as rich as they claim, and wont give their name either, you would think they wouldn't need a whole 1,216 pages to get the point across, its to make you think its worth the price, and its probably full of useless filler, and useless information...just saying
