Referral Selling Warned By Chamber Director
Floyd M. Sayre executive secretary of the Beck ley Chamber of Commerce warns county residents about referral selling a for nothing scam sweeping the nation. The plan entices a friend to arrange a home visit by a salesman who promises $100 for each qualified referral and $50 for every additional one. High pressure tactics push toward signing or buying a car at inflated prices while promising payments that never cover the cost. The scheme relies on endless referrals and ends with monthly payments. Authorities call it unsound and urge buying from reliable dealers to avoid entrapment.
