THE BETTER. BUSINESS IN

H BUREAU

INDIANAPOLIS

The Indianapolis Better Business Bureau has accumu- lated thousands of files on the different kinds of schemes which are foisted upon the public.

Honest promoters are willing and eager that their promotions be fully investigated before you pay your money. Any others are not worthy of your con- sideration.

Don't be "high-pressured" into any scheme about which you may have some doubt. Get the FACTS from the Better Business Bureau.

Some of the "types" of deception and misrepresenta- tion that we have come across are listed below. Read them for your future protection.

The appearance of this Public Service Message in these columns is evidence that this publication sub- scribes whole-heartedly to the principles of the Better Business Bureau, and co- operates with the Bureau in protecting you -- even to the extent of refusing to accept the advertising of firms whose advertising and sales policies are proved to be con- trary to public interest.

-Gyp Auto Assns. -Suit Clubs

-Scholarship Magazine Schemes

-Free Lots

-Home Work Schemes

-Partnership Wanted Schemes

-Classified Advertising-where money must be deposited to secure a position

-Strange Phone Calls

-Fur Peddlers

-Unordered Merchandise Received through the mails

-Fake Auction Sales

-"Bait" Advertising

-Picture Enlargement Fakes

Some of the above schemes play upon your credulity- others trick you into believing that you receive some- thing when in the end you do not.

In all cases of doubt call the Better Business Bureau. We do not tell you whether you should buy or not. That's your affair. We do, however, tell you the facts, so that you can be guided in making your decision.

We charge nothing for our services and have nothing to sell.

The BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU, Inc.

531 Occidental Building MAin 3737

INDIANAPOLIS

This organization is supported by reputable business institutions and operates without profit to promote public confidence and business integrity in advertising, selling and in- vestments. Our service is offered without charge we have nothing to sell.
