Just to be devil's advocate, that strategy is highly likely to be a winner for a fit, young person on a lowish income with no dependents (assuming the $3-4k is a one-off rather than annual fee).There's a group of cold call/website scumbags who operate out of SE Qld, keep changing their name. A couple of them have previously been banned by ASIC.
IIRC they often pop up when people do searches for super advice or switching but I've heard of people being called too, basically they tell you they'll get you a better return, roll you over to a North platform and switch the super allocation to 100% growth (that's how they claim they'll achieve a better return, more risk). Sting you 3-4 grand, usually on a sub 100k account because it's young people they catch who have NFI, don't address your insurance, just leave your old super open for to run out of $$.
[Though of course they could replicate much more cheaply within a conventional superfund]
