ADVISOR FUEL - BEWARE OF THEM

I've an extremely unpleasant experience with this company. We sent them a legal notice and my lawyer even lodged a compliant with the Florida Attorney General but in vein. These people don't bother about legal notices as they know most advisors don't have time and wherewithal to go to litigation.

Due to limitation of space I can't write in detail, but please contact me if you like to know my entire experience with ADVISOR FUEL. Don't fall prey to their tactics.
