Re: Local ADT "Authorized Dealer" violating Florida law

Actually, no.  There are no apples or oranges but possibly some real lemons.
If you advertise something and something can be anything because it doesn't
matter what it is, if you advertise something for 'free' when in fact its
not 'free' at all and some other conditions must be met, it is a SCAM.  And
Florida and Arizona are the two biggest scam states in the country which is
why so many scam land deals operate out of those two states.

Fair market value, real preperty, labor... a scam is a scam.  Either the
item is free and you are under no obligation whatsoever or its not free.
This is quite simple and nothing else enters into it.  Either it really is
free or it isn't.

Is the 'free' cellphone free?
Is the 'free' satellite dish free?
Is the 'free' alarm system free?
Is the 'free' pizza free?

The answer is no.  No if's, no and's, no but's... just NO.
