Investing in Timber

All, just what is a "Scam"?

As an example, I have some desert land to sell you cheap - most would say that land sales as this are "scams", although you do take title to land.

I do not believe that TATF is premediated or preplanned fraud, but I do believe that it has spiraled into a scam due to a variety of factors.

Just because the trees exist, does not mean that it is not a scam.

TATF's own website advertises on its projection pages that thinned lumber sells for 0.65/bd ft TODAY, yet it rots in the fields and they do not appear to sell any. They advertise that they thin young trees at 7 and 10, etc years old, yet they have not thinned any trees for some years, and mine are long overdue.

Regardless of the legal definition of a "scam" (if there is one), it sure appears that TATF has devolved into a scam.
