In case you are interested:
“The discovery of the Barnett Shale natu[r]al gas field offers land owners the possibility of income based on the amount of natural gas on their property. However, some companies may deceive land owners by having them sign oil and gas leases that are unfair - duping landowners with leases that can not be read, offering royalty payments far below market rate, and/or defrauding landowners with numerous other types of misrepresentations.”

I wonder what type of misrepresentations be applicable to landbrokers we have operating in our area.
- “We already signed everybody from that neighborhood.”
- “You do not have the numbers to dictate terms.”
- “They are all liars. We tell the truth.”
- “We have drill sites on M/H and behind W.”
- “This offer will only be valid until xx/xx/xx. You will not have a chance to sign after that.”
- One letter showed “they” had x % of subdivision leased and the very next letter shows y % (which was less than x %).
Anybody have any other types of comments…
