Trendforex20 is a scam

Yes the guys at HL Direct Marketing have done it again. 

Does it work?
Is it a scam?
Do you have proof?
Is there a live statement?

What  you've been hearing about John Chen, Trend Forex 2.0, and their flashy videos, are nothing more than the guys at HL Direct Marketing selling their product "John Chen".

They're also the guys who brought you theforexmagicmachine, forex virtuosso, forex annhilation.  

Just a word to the wise, if you want to try out the software despite this warning.  Make sure you pay with paypal, on what ever payment processor they choose.  

These guys originally brought their scams to clickbank but clickbank's refund system proved too much for them to handle. They then tried plimus but plimus refunded their clients as well.

Some facts:
  1. The site trendforex20.com was designed by the same company which created theforexmagicmachine.com
  2. Hosted on the same provider as theforexmagicmachine.com


some sites which attest to their "track record" http://www.forexpeacearmy.com/forex-forum/scam-alerts-folder/4509-semiautoforex-com-scam-run-hl-direct-marketing.html
