Are you a victim of coin fraud?

We are here to help you recover your hard-earned money and life savings from dishonest precious metal dealers. We represent consumers throughout the United States who have been victimized by unscrupulous coin and bullion dealers.

You are not alone

By 2014, the Federal government estimated that “10,000 Americans have been victimized through these schemes, with losses of around $300 million.” In the years since the precious metal fraud problem has only become worse.

The Federal Trade Commission testified before the United States Senate that it had “observed a proliferation of schemes [where] deceptive telemarketing operators posing as “brokers” and offering precious metals as purported high-profit, low-risk investments. By failing to disclose key information about the investments’ terms and high costs, these brokers deceive consumers into believing that the investments provide a safe and secure vehicle for savings.

The FBI found that corrupt coin dealers intentionally target the elderly “because they were elderly and [the dealer] thought he could get away with it” and that, while the amount defrauded may seem small in comparison to certain other financial frauds,
“it represents a great deal to the victims – it was one man’s life savings.”
Why

Why?

Gold and other precious metals – such as silver, platinum, and palladium – have long been considered “real money” and continue to be popular physical assets and investments. Unfortunately, the public’s interest in and demand for gold and other precious metals has also resulted in the rise of numerous dealers who engage in coin and precious metals fraud.
How

How?

These unscrupulous coin and bullion telemarketers are slick. They take advantage of the fact that the precious metals market is largely unregulated in order to prey on widows and abuse the elderly. They take advantage of those who came of age in a “high trust” society. They employ scare tactics such as playing on fears of stock market crashes, memories of the Great Depression, current political and world unrest, and the ever-increasing threats of economic crises and runaway inflation. They seek to gain your trust, to claim to be your “friend.” But once your guard is down, they may tell you they are giving you a “great deal” only to sell you coins at grossly inflated prices that will never attain, much less exceed, their purchase price during your lifetime.

Let’s Talk About Your Case

Kind Words From Our Clients

- W.C., Arizona

As a recent widow, I wanted to leave some financial security for my family.    I became interested in a magazine article about a “gold coin company” that claimed that gold and platinum coins were the safest haven against a bad economy.  They were very friendly and “wined and dined” me over the phone.   Little did I know that they kept a book on our conversations, learning the names of my family members and events in my life, and using that to befriend me for their gain.  They even sent me gifts and, before I knew it, they had taken me for over $80,000 on coins that were worth a fraction of that.  I was so embarrassed and did not know what to do.  When my financial condition collapsed, I tried to sell them the coins back and learned that their “money back” guarantee was a scam and I was a victim of fraud.  Thank goodness for Lyn Stevens.  He helped me recover my savings and took a huge burden off my shoulders, and did it in just a few months.  If others are victims of fraud, then I recommend my attorney.  He knows what he is doing and helped restore me.

- Susan L., Missouri

My mother had a horrible experience with a company that took advantage of her….convincing her to send them coins that they then kept and sold, without her consent. With Ken’s assistance, we were able to recover the vast majority of her coins. We would highly recommend reaching out to him if you find yourself in a similar situation. He provided a wealth of knowledge and guidance throughout the process and was very easy to work with.

- R.H. Minnesota

Recently, I felt the need to hire an attorney to assist me in recovering my retirement. I had read that gold coins were ‘safe.’ Regrettably, the salesman convinced me to spend more than I wanted and the coins ended up being worth much less than I was led to believe. After spending most of my retirement account, I found that I had been duped. These lawyers really rescued me; otherwise, I would have lost my retirement. I was surprised at how easy it was to resolve my dispute and get my money back. Thanks to them, I feel secure again.

- E.M., California

A few years ago I purchased over $400,000 worth of gold coins from a popular company. They convinced me that the coins I purchased would appreciate in value faster than bullion. After a couple of years, another gold coin dealer appraised my coins and we discovered that I had been scammed. I hired Lyn Stevens to handle my claims. To make a long story short, I got ALL of my money back. My attorney was very professional and smart. He guided me through the whole process and we prevailed against this crooked company. If you have a similar problem I HIGHLY recommend Lyn Stevens, he is the best you will find in this business. Thanks again, Lyn.

- Doug L., Arizona

I recently became power of attorney for my mother. Little did I know what I was in for when I found out that she had been scammed by a seemingly creditable coin company for almost a quarter of million dollars. Luckily we found Lyn to help us through this. Lyn was very personable and professional throughout the entire process. He knew not only about the financial toll something like this places on a family but also the emotional toll. Lyn re-assured my elderly mother that it wasn’t her fault and that he knew how to get her money back. Lyn was diligent in resolving the matter and ensuring that this company never attempted to scam her again. Thanks Lyn for a job well done! We highly recommend Lyn’s services if you need a personable attorney that is aggressive, efficient and a pleasure to work with.

- R. Young, Hawaii

When you are over 80, you hate to admit being a victim to a high pressure sales tactics. A coin company convinced me that I was getting such good deals on gold and silver coins that I ended up with a significant debt and my life savings in jeopardy. I had been scammed by “friendly” slick salesmen. They refused to accept a return of the coins even after I filed a complaint with the Attorney General and sought help from a non-profit consumer protection services. Nothing helped until I hired Lyn Stevens. He was understanding and patient. He told me that there were unscrupulous coin dealers after the elderly and that I was not the only victim to their schemes. He went to work for me and recovered my retirement, without going to court!

- S. P. - Kansas City, Kansas

I am 81 years old and fell victim to some shady California and Texas coin dealers.  When I started out with Lyn Stevens, I feared we would never see a penny.  I had already used one attorney and felt we had reached the end of our trail.  But Lyn Stevens showed dedication and resourcefulness.  He not only recovered my losses, but he kept me informed and involved along the way.  I highly recommend Lyn Stevens to anyone that has been scammed by coin dealers.

- E. Curtis, Louisiana

Mr. Stevens is a good, honest, and ethical man who simply does what he says he is going to do. If you are able to have Mr Stevens take your case you can rest assured that you are being represented by a true professional with exceptional skills. Thank you very much again for taking my case and bringing it to a satisfactory resolution.

In the last few years of my father’s life, he invested heavily into gold and silver coins.  An appraisal found that his coins were only worth a fraction of what he had paid.  We hired Lyn Stevens to assist us untangle this problem and he help us recover a substantial portion of the funds.  Lyn Stevens is knowledgeable about the coin market and the tactics employed by crooked coin dealers.  He was persistent and dedicated to our case.  Best decision we made was hiring him.
