Misleading and Deceptive Advertising Claims:

Recent ads placed by viatical issuers in Georgia newspapers promise investors returns of 36% to 90%.  Some issuers also falsely claim that their products are “100 % secured, fully insured and bonded.”  In most instances bonds don’t exist or are provided by “sham” bonding companies.
