Re: Brinks Home Security Fraud

[tourman <robercampbell@xxxxxxxxx>]

When will the average consumer learn that you generally get exactly
what you pay for in business. It seems as soon as the word "free"
comes up, the average joe shifts his brain into neutral !!  And in
doing so, he also plays right into the hands of the advertising gurus,
who make a career out of lying for a living.....

There's another  "truism" that I have found in our industry (and which
likely exists in most others). Those who advertise the most, give you
the least for your money. Who the hell do people think is actually
paying for all that advertising and the other massive overheads of all
large businesses ?..!!

If people continue to allow themselves to get suckered in by the likes
of ADT, Brinks and Alarmforce, then frankly they deserve everything
they get for not doing even a modicum of research on the subject. With
the amount of information freely available to everyone today, there is
simply no excuse for such negligent decisions !!

A fool and his money are soon parted. So be it.....
