Scams:
Ads
that tell you... “You can get out of debt
with no payments and without filing bankruptcy”....
are a scam. They promise to get you out of
debt....but instead....they just steal your
hard-earned money....and leave you even deeper
in debt or...as they say...even more in the "red".

Counseling Re-Payment Plans:
Credit counseling
organizations
promise to get you out of debt,
.....but all they can do....at best.... is lower
your interest a little on credit cards....and then
only some credit cards.
Bankruptcy:
Others
ads promise, but only bankruptcy delivers.
Only
