leaders of scam


Hey 'mon ami'

Got some BS of the highest order for you today.  How do you know if your favourite gooroo is just out to take your money?

Trusting or Naive?

When I turned my back on MLM and started to look for a better vehicle, it was actually my buddy who had made me aware of the Coffee House Letter. We were both unbelievably excited. He knew a guy who was in our situation and had started making some decent money on the internet.

Our Saviour. 

I was itching to get started and had my money ready before my buddy. I knew my new found 'saviour' had the results I wanted and I was teachable so I listened to his every word. I did exactly as he said. I got started and my internet marketing career began. The first piece of advice my 'mentor' gave me was...

We need to get you some sales FAST so you have a story.

I was later to realise the importance of 'your story' in a space full of hype and lies which goes by the name of 'internet marketing'. See, this is the only fuckin product you sell on the internet.

A fuckin story? wtf!

We thought this was amazing at the time. All we ever saw from our 'mentor' was...

See How I Quit MLM and Made $10k, then $20k, then $50k and all the way up to $100K per month...

But then over the next 24 months or so I slowly figured out the harsh truth. 

Blinded by my own Dreams!

See, like most newbies chasing a dream, you want it SO FUCKIN BAD, you set yourself up for easy pickings. You're a sitting target!

I'd been in the game less than a week, I'd already made a couple sales and my buddy was ready to get started. He had his money together to start close to the top. He said he was gonna join under me but after a chat on the phone with our kind hearted, integrity driven 'mentor', he convinced us it would be better to join under him.

The call went like this...

Ewan is new in this business, he can't teach you what I can. If you join under me, you will have the best possible chance of success.

With me wanting my buddy to succeed, I was like, of course, makes total sense.

Scamming Bas***d!

haha, had he joined under me, I woulda had a $10,000 first week.

There was 'my story' right there!

Now, what about the bullshyt story of I can't teach him what our 'mentor' could? Here's the major flaws in that story. 


  • We were joining the worlds best marketing education platform which levels the playing field.
  • Our 'mentors' team training webinar was open to ANYONE in our entire team.
  • I gave him more training than our 'mentor' ever did.

So, yes, it was a story told for his own selfish benefits. Hey, I have no regrets though, karma is a bitch and he will get *ahem* already got his dues :p

A better option still.

Looking back, my buddy and I shoulda teamed up. It would have cost us half the cost of us BOTH joining, leaving waaay more for adspend and we could've leveraged each other skills. As it panned out, I was good at generating leads and my buddy was waaay better at speaking to and converting into sales.

Team UP!

I encourage you to do the same. Team up dawg. Trade off your skillz with someone else and sell the shyt out of your products and/or services.

Imagine you mastered something and your buddy mastered something else. Or team up with someone who already has the skillz you're looking to learn, someone who can ram your business full of leads...

Someone like me...

What a team, imagine that, just sayin :p

The industry is rife with stories like these which you need to avoid like the black plague. That;s why I wrote The Tinderbox Report last week.
