I have tagged the article to be wikify and for its content to be verified. However, the tags have been removed without any modifications to the article (especially with respect to facts not supported by sources). Thus, I will revert the article for tags in hope that third party / author can modify articles by citing its sources. Thank you. --Hurricane11116:52, 4 September 2005 (UTC)Reply
Further to my comments, I have do a basic google search of "Fund America" and "Bob Edwards" which came up empty. Thus, it makes me suspicious of the article's content.--Hurricane11116:55, 4 September 2005 (UTC)Reply
I got some relevant results with this search, though they might not be reliable. -- Kjkolb 05:54, September 5, 2005 (UTC)
Most of this article is incredibly POV and reads almost like a blog. It was obviously written by someone involved with FundAmerica that felt slighted. "The damage to the company, its Independent Distributors and its Members by overzealous Florida officials and the sensation-hungry media was simply too great for Independent Distributors to overcome."

The majority of the article reads like marketing material. The mention of Jeff Bezos in the first paragraph of "The Business" serves no purpose and could cause the reader to believe that Bezos was involved with FundAmerica. The entire article needs some very serious scrubbing.71.56.47.32 (talk) 00:12, 29 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
The article doesn't currently mention Prime Trust. "Very successful" according to what metric? Is Crowd Fund Insider a WP:RS? Per WP:CORP, if there are multiple reliable, independent sources discussing this, present them here and we can figure out how to resolve this issue. The existence of a new company by this name doesn't invalidate the existence of the old company. That a company chose to use the exact same name as a defunct pyramid scheme seems like a peculiar business decision, but that's something which reliable sources will have to explain. If this sources do not explain it, it's not notable enough to mention here. Grayfell (talk) 00:06, 19 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
