Fisher Liberty Gold Avis 

I just cannot understand how Larry Cherney can call them scammers and still give them five stars. I also cannot understand all of these five-star reviews in light of what happened to me—and apparently to so many others.

My Accuplan account shows 20 half-ounce silver coins with a purchase price of approximately $69,000, but a current asset value of only $572. Yet Fisher Capital’s brochure says, “We believe in providing value more than selling products.” Nothing could be farther from the truth. We work so hard for our money, only to watch it disappear in minutes of work on their part. The value was for them, not for us. BUYERS Please be aware that, unfortunately, most people do not look at reviews until it is too late. That may have created value for Fisher Capital, but it certainly did not create value for its clients.

They were your best friends on the phone, Michael often would end his call with “God bless.” As others have documented here, both Philip Custer and Michael Mendell informed me how well my portfolio was doing and encouraged me to invest the rest of my life savings with them.

I could not think clearly while I was on the phone with them. My mind was frozen by their seemingly caring comments, I truly trusted them blindly. They kept telling me I was doing great and encouraged me to invest more money “for my own good.” This year, they got me to transfer another IRA and even surrender my annuity. Which caused me a great loss since it wasn't an IRA I wanted to keep the medals at home for immediately quick cash as needed.
I specifically asked for bullion and bars as close to spot price as possible. That request was completely ignored. I did not receive what I requested. Once they had my money, my requests basically went on deaf. Didn't matter to Michael did not seem to matter. Michael Mendell later had the audacity to tell me that I was “in complete control” of my portfolio. How could I have been in complete control when I repeatedly asked for bullion and bars and did not receive even one bar?

I invested almost $200,000 in my IRA, and today I have roughly $40,000 to show for it.

Then there is my annuity. I was counting on that annuity income because my income is below the poverty level. I specifically told Michael Mendell how important liquidation value was to me. Instead, I gave them almost $50,000 from my annuity proceeds for coins I did not want, and based on their actual metal value I now have only about $23,000 in value.

I was also told they would make up approximately $8,000 of the annuity surrender penalty. Instead, they sent me another 90 half-ounce silver coins and called them a “gift.” There is no invoice for these coins because Fisher considers them a gift. Their actual metal value is nowhere close to $8,000. I estimate the value at approximately $3,000 at best.

Michael Mendell told me that what he was doing for me was a “SECRET” between him and me and specifically told me, “DON’T TELL ANYONE.” He told me that I was actually getting a better deal than bullion and bars.

But when I later complained and asked them to take the coins back and give me what I had originally requested, Michael told me he did not recommend doing that because I would only receive the coins’ melt value.

That is exactly why liquidation value mattered so much to me from the beginning.

I was a stay-at-home mother and have no experience in precious metals. I repeatedly told both Michael Mendell and Philip Custer that I did not understand the paperwork and that there was no possible way for me to properly read and understand all of those documents while they were waiting for me on the telephone.

Instead of giving me sufficient time, I was pressured to electronically sign documents while Michael was on the phone with me. Some documents were signed within less than a minute—approximately 30 seconds in one instance and about 69 seconds during an earlier transaction involving his manager.

I trusted them when they told me I was doing well, that they were protecting my retirement, and that these transactions were good for me.

I was misled.

I was charged extraordinary amounts for half-ounce silver coins—in some cases, more for one-half ounce of silver than I could have paid for a full one-ounce silver coin at a local coin dealer.

What is most upsetting is that precious-metals dealers are apparently able to continue operating this way while seniors have very little protection. Once they had control of my retirement money, I had almost no meaningful control at all.

I asked for simple bullion and bars. I wanted liquidity and value close to the metal price. Instead, I received high-markup coins I did not ask for, enormous losses in reported value, and coins that I cannot liquidate for anything close to what I was charged.
Those are the facts reflected in my experience and in my account r

Fisher Liberty are scammers, great at sales but entirely lacking in stewardship. In 2 words, con-artists. What's more they play up being, "Conservative Christians"
but they are anything but. I understand CFTC is building a fraud case against them and have learned that the former CEO, Alexander Spellane (age 33) has been reported deceased (Aug. 10, 2026), of a possible drug overdose. Do not under any circumstances engage in any transactions w/Fisher Liberty Gold.

I purchased my gold and silver in 2021. It was a scheme to take senior citizens retirement and buy high so they will never recover their money. CFTC Charges Precious Metals Dealers and Their Owner in Multimillion Dollar Fraud Targeting the Elderly. I am one of the victims. The one gold I was sold is not even tradeable. It was all I had and now I am 70 and trying to make ends meet. The owner tragically passed away not sure what to do now. I was played by stating they were Christian based, supported by the president, and for sure we will take good care of you. I was also called to take down my review please by Andrew himself. The guy who helped me went by an alias, and even wrote a book!!! So sad this company took advantage of so many seniors and would boast about being millionaires.

Michael Mandell was personable and professional. I know nothing about investing in metals, but Michael educated me without making me feel stupid. He is a no-pressure guy who seems genuinely here to help. I really enjoyed learning about metals and talking with Michael.

I am writing about my experience with Fisher Capital, whose Trustpilot profile now appears under the name Fisher Liberty Gold.
I am a widow in my 70s. I worked hard throughout my life to provide for my family and protect the savings I would need during retirement. I placed my trust in Fisher Capital, and I believe that trust cost me a substantial portion of my life savings.
In July 2023, Fisher Capital contacted me and encouraged me to move my existing precious-metals account to the company. I was also advised to exchange my bullion coins for coins described to me as more valuable, exclusive, and rare.
Over time, the company and my representative, N. Scott, built a relationship with me. I relied on what I was told about the coins and the performance of my account.
After receiving repeated calls from N. Scott telling me that my account was performing extremely well, I transferred an additional $400,000 to Fisher Capital. I was sold coins described as exclusive or rare. Based on a later review of my transactions and the coins’ values, I believe the coins purchased with that $400,000 were worth only approximately $200,000 immediately after the transaction.
I did not understand at the time that such a significant loss in value had occurred. Instead, N. Scott continued calling and assuring me that my account was performing extremely well. On one occasion, I was even told that my account had gained a couple hundred thousand dollars.
Because I trusted those representations, I was encouraged to invest another $500,000. A later review indicated that this transaction caused an immediate loss in value of approximately $230,000.
In October 2025, approximately four months after my prior transaction, N. Scott contacted me again. He told me that precious metals had performed very well and that I needed to make immediate changes to my holdings. Once again, I trusted his advice.
My existing rare coins were then bought back at what I believe was an additional loss of approximately 10%. I was subsequently sold different supposedly rare or exclusive coins at prices that, based on my later review, caused an additional reduction of approximately 60% in the value involved in that transaction.
Altogether, I entrusted approximately $1,024,161.85 of my savings to these transactions. At its lowest reviewed value, my account was worth only approximately $280,000. That represents a reduction of approximately $744,000 or nearly 73% of my life savings.
I did not knowingly agree to lose this much of my savings. At the time these transactions occurred, I was repeatedly being told that my account was doing extremely well. I did not learn the apparent extent of the markups and immediate losses until the transactions and coin values were reviewed later.
I have also since learned that on April 25, 2023, before Fisher Capital contacted me the Commodity Futures Trading Commission announced that it had filed a federal civil enforcement action against Fisher Capital, affiliated entities, and its principal. The CFTC’s complaint alleges that elderly customers were persuaded to purchase supposedly exclusive or collectible coins at grossly inflated prices and then suffered immediate losses. These are allegations contained in a government complaint, but the similarities to my personal experience are extremely troubling. Anyone considering this company should read CFTC Release No. 8694-23.
I am preserving my account statements, transaction confirmations, communications, call records, coin information, and valuations. I am also reporting my experience to the appropriate state and federal authorities and consulting legal counsel regarding my rights.
Before purchasing anything from this company or any precious-metals dealer, I strongly urge you to obtain an independent written valuation from someone who is not affiliated with the seller. Insist on receiving the coin’s actual market value, metal content, spot or melt value, total markup or premium, commission, and immediate buyback value in writing before transferring any money.
I am sharing my firsthand experience so that other retirees, widows, older adults, and their families can investigate carefully and protect themselves before making the same mistake I believe I made.

If you want a good experience with any company; finding those with American Biblically Conservative values is a absolute must.
Grant Broadway & Alex have been completely helpful and informative. They helped me get out of Nationwide who was siphoning 4K a month from my funds in the last 3 months they had my account of which they took away somewhat smaller amounts before. But with Gold & Silver through Grant & Alex of Fisher Liberty Gold, I've doubled my investment within a couple of months. Grant & Alex support American Biblically Conservative values and are also backed by OAN News host Matt Gaetz. So; you know you can trust them.
At times it may be difficult to get a hold of them, but that's because they are very busy helping people... but, they will always get back to you within a couple of days. If a couple of days pass, send your message again with original date sent so they can be reminded and feel the urgency to get back to you ASAP.
GOD bless.

I am posting this review to document my unresolved experience.

On May 5th (89 days ago), I placed two orders (a liquidation and a purchase) involving precious metals. My existing assets were liquidated, but the proceeds have not yet been deposited into my account. The purchased metals were also not delivered within the timeframes stated in the agreement. The contract referenced a 28-day delivery window, and more than 60 days passed without delivery.

Because the terms and timelines I was provided did not match the agreement, I canceled the purchase. As of today, approximately ~$580k that I expected to receive following the liquidation has not yet been received.

I have contacted the company multiple times through registered mail, email, texts and phone calls to request clarification and a return of the funds. I have not yet received a resolution.

My only goal is a timely correction of this issue. If Fisher Liberty Gold provides the refund, I will update this review to reflect the resolution.

Unresolved.

Very nice emoplyes

I've been with Fisher for a few years now. Nick Scott has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. He has been very responsive and helpful with all my questions and I am very confident in his ability to service my account. Im a happy customer 😊

Fisher Liberty Gold has been very helpful and has shown to be very knowledgeable about the products sold and the values therein. Thank you.

I have been working with Nicholos and Joseph since I decided to move my retirement funds out of my traditional IRA in the stock market into my self directed IRA containing Gold and Silver. I am glad I decided to go with them as I was able to get my metals in individual coins, so besides the melt value, I have increased value due to the type of coins I hold. It's been a great investment and my asset value has increased significantly since I made this change.

My experience with Nick was and is amazing!!! He is informative, amazing and very accessible. I am someone who needs a lot of explanation and research before making any "money moves" and Nick is there always to educate and help me navigate.

I had a referral from a friend that said what a great job Nick Scout had done for him.
He was correct.
Nick was so helpful and thorough and he made my investment experience great.
Nick always folliws up on such a timely manner.
Such a joy doing business with Nick.

The personal connection to Adam made all the difference. I felt like I shared common values with him and could relate to him. He provided me with knowledge but explained things well and was very patient with me to understand. He had to help me weigh options as I made decisions and I asked a LOT of questions.

I just want to take a minute and tell everyone at Fisher Liberty Gold and Silver thank you for making my experience with you a good one and a special thank you to Philip and Nick for being so helpful and nice! I like Fisher Liberty Gold so much I recommended Fisher Liberty and Gold to a friend and Philip helped him out immediately! Thanks Cherie Lee

The people that help you (determine how you want to invest in metals) are invaluable and reveal a real desire to help you in multiple ways: 1) they made sure that I understood risks, 2) worked extensively to trade for the best acquisitions (finished one of my trades 6pm day before Christmas Eve, 3) have called back to check on me and respond quickly to questions. I was able to talk to VERY knowledgeable people on metals and have great confidence in their recommendations as well them showing respect and a desire to help me throughout our business encounters

Working with Philip Custer has been a great experience. He gives me good advice as we go through investing gold and silver. Plus I’m making money and that’s the bottom line.
I would not hesitate to recommend Philip Custer. He is always available. Just a phone call away.

Fisher Liberty Gold executive team has guided me through liquidating approximately 48% of my equity portfolio into gold and silver. They carefully explained how the precious metals market is rapidly increasing over time to provide investment growth. The team has been very supportive and has provided published articles from top investment advisors to assist me in my decision.

Nick was very informative and explain everything. He was very knowable and patient.

My experience was great and he walked me through everything and was very patient kind with Nick
