On 10/03/2014 I gave Davenport & associates $2000 to be part of their financial investment plan. I should have researched the company first. I did not know of their relationship with SECURITIES OF AMERICA which doesn’t seem to have such a great reputation. Should I run from Davenport & associates?

The $2000 was for three meetings to determine if the company is right for me???
