closed down by the feds after scamming hundreds of people with overpriced “collectable” coins. This is still common in the industry and there are several companies I see on here still at it. If your dealer offers you cheap or even free bullion in their advertising and then switches to selling you the idea of rare collectible coins RUN
Jay Lindenmuth – :
I also was introduced to the Hannity BS and promised by 3 different people that I would receive 600.00 in Silver coins. R**** K*** was the main man. Since then all phones associated with him and the 7 different numbers are out of order. The depository is in Delaware and will not deal with Metals .com and any transaction would mean I would have to go through another dealer STAY AWAY!! Go with one of the top 3 or Noble Gold investments which I will be checking out.

They cold called me yesterday in what seemed to be an obvious scam. They even started the conversation this way: “Are you a fan of Shawn Hannity because we sure are, one of his biggest supporters”. And THEN the caller put someone else on the line (just as used car salesmen always see a need to go in side and get a “manager” to make you a deal you simply can’t resist, LMAO. Never ever trust a cold caller from a so called “investment company” and whatever you do, DO NOT EVER give them access or even knowledge of your life savings.

metals.com is an awesome company that literally follows the rules to the letter. The brokers do not give financial advice like most precious metals companies do…and that fact alone makes me appreciate them so much more. I tried to roll over my 401k with a few other companies…and they continually gave me advice on why i need to buy silver..and to buy silver now…you will make alot of money!..I am in this for the long march,,not the short run. Metals.com just read me information from reputable sources, which I looked up myself to verify. I really didnt need the info to make my decision, but its nice to know that they werent trying to swindle me into a metals purchase on a get-rich-quick scheme. i recommend this company
