No sooner than people are offered a service to help them through tough times than someone, usually a competitor starts to deride the service with false claims. This is meant to drive business away from one business to another by scaring customers and instilling mistrust. Unfortunately for these types of uncouth businesses, the fear generated by a campaign of slanderous remarks has the end result of keeping customers away from their door, too.

One such service being offered to the public in these economic times is the buying of old, broken and unwanted gold jewelry. Cries of Dollars for Gold Scam! are being read on websites as testimonials, purportedly by former customers who've either not been paid or feel that they've been paid too little for their unwanted gold.
The fact is that over 900,000 satisfied customers have successfully sold their unwanted gold and cashed their checks- which just goes to show they were satisfied with the offers they received. Now, that's not the definition of a scam.

It's easy. You gather up all the unwanted, old or broken gold jewelry and place it in a prepaid, insured and ...
... preaddressed envelope. It's up to you to make sure you don't take Great-Grandma's hideous old broach that means something only to Mom. Once the envelope reaches the foundry, every piece of gold is evaluated by highly trained experts using the latest technology. A check is then mailed quickly to you. You then have twelve days to decide if you agree or disagree with the amount offered. If not, the check can be returned and the gold is sent back via prepaid envelope. Not a problem. Of course, if Mom catches you after the twelve day period is up, they can't provide you with a new identity and a place to live. You're on your own.

This beats the heck out of hauling a lot of gold jewelry around in the customer's pockets or purse. That's a load of stress no one really wants or needs these days. Being able to mail the gold in a plain white envelope is far more secure. Just drop it in a mailbox. It also beats having to put all the gold on a counter in front of a jeweler or pawn broker and haggle about the value of gold in front of everyone. Now everyone in the store knows your business and some not so nice types know you're carrying gold. That's about as safe as it was in the old days.
Even with negative so-called testimonials on the internet, you're bound to notice there have been no news stories about any company being exposed or investigated by authorities for a Dollars for Gold Scam. That's because there isn't one.
