i know i just posted on here, but after posting my comment, i was further researching this matter, and came across something of interest....
as you recall, your pamplet includes "testimonials" of subscribers to this book. one of these is of a man telling you "anononymously" of the 10-second miracle. he tells you about how he ended up being sentenced to jail for two years because,"In my zeal and zest to be successful and trying to apply all these things, I started to cut coners. Money got so tight that I did some illegal things involving my credit cards.". Oddly enough, when I typed Kevin Trudeaus name into yahoo, i came upon a site...

"During the early 1990s, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal, Trudeau served nearly two years in prison. In 1990, he pled guilty to larceny in a Cambridge, Massachusetts, state court in connection with $80,000 in worthless checks he had deposited at a bank. The sentencing memorandum said that he had posed as a doctor to increase his credibility with bank officials. In 1991, he pled guilty to credit-card fraud in Boston federal district court. Among his misdeeds in the federal case, he misappropriated for his own use the credit-card numbers of customers of the memory-improvement courses that he offered at the time. (Barrett 2004)
In the credit card swindle, he defrauded American Express out of $122,735.68. He also swindled about five grand from several banks, including Chemical and Citibank. The Smoking Gun has posted a copy of the indictment.".
I obviously thought, that anyone who may be looking into this matter, would find this specific information highly helpful.
