“How to Buy U.S. Government Backed Silver for $1.25, and get a Free Retirement Loan”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ July 21, 2009 ⋅ 17 comments

This ad sounds a little bit like a very popular one we looked at a few months back — then, it was for $1 “Silver Shots”, and it was a teaser for a leveraged derivative trade on silver futures (or, in plainer speak, it was for long-term call options on the SLV ETF).
If [...]

Major Player in Booming Chinese Silver Industry

By StockGumshoe ⋅ June 10, 2009 ⋅ 3 comments

Today’s look is at a stock that I actually haven’t seen teased very heavily, and I haven’t received the ads directly yet, but I have gotten dozens of questions from readers about it … so here goes.
It looks like the teaser must have been in the S&A Digest, which is the “free” weekly report for [...]

“48 Karat Gold: An Investment Worth Twice Its Weight in Gold”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ June 9, 2009 ⋅ 17 comments

Well, the gold price seems to be recovering slightly this morning after a few days of backtracking once it got close to the $1,000 level again … so it’s time to look at another gold ad, no?
Today’s feature is an ad for the Big Gold service from Casey Research, edited by Jeff Clark (there are [...]

“Silver Hits Critical Levels – U.S. Mint Halts Production of Silver Coins
“New Gov’t-Regulated $1 “Silver Shots” Poised to Skyrocket 12,785%
“Forget about silver coins, ETFs and silver mining stocks. New $1 “silver shots” give you a very real opportunity to turn $10,000 into $1.3 million by year’s end.

“$12.5 Billion in Abandoned Silver”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ December 1, 2008 ⋅ 23 comments

I’ve seen this particular ad a few times in the last week or so, and I know that there are many folks out there in Gumshoe Land with a yen for silver, so I thought it deserved a few minutes of consideration.
The ad is for a special report from the Oxford Club — [...]

“The Greatest Economic Conspiracy in History”

By StockGumshoe ⋅ October 30, 2008 ⋅ 30 comments

“After 98 years of secrecy, the greatest economic conspiracy in history is finally unfolding.”
“Learn how you could turn $5,000 into $100,000 (or more) by 2009 with this safe and simple
profit/protection plan…”
That’s how this latest ad opens, with the threat that the 98-year-old “Jeckyl Island Project” economic conspiracy will ruin your retirement — though to be [...]

McCoach: Bank Failure? Buy This Miner

By StockGumshoe ⋅ February 10, 2008 ⋅ 19 comments

This is a teaser that has been around before, but the whole lead and urgent emotional appeal have changed quite a bit — so I thought it worthy of some comment.
This is for Greg McCoach’s Insider Alert … and they want you to be very afraid (”afraid” is particularly good for precious metals investors).
The headline [...]

McCoach’s Best Idea: "Rupert’s Paradise Silver Mine"

By StockGumshoe ⋅ December 19, 2007 ⋅ 14 comments

This one comes in from Greg McCoach, who edits the pretty popular Mining Speculator, and I’m always interested to hear about what he’s touting — especially since McCoach currently holds the top spot in the Gumshoe Spreadsheet with his pick of Duluth Mining. This pick is apparently for a new service of his, Insider [...]

"Treasure of the Sierra Madre"

By StockGumshoe ⋅ September 14, 2007 ⋅ 10 comments

I’ve had countless readers send me notes about this one, so I thought I should write something … but I regret to inform you that I don’t think it’s possible to be certain of a solution on this one without “cheating” and actually seeing the newsletter.
So that can be the Gumshoe’s challenge to you — [...]
