I can’t believe Jesus still needs to warn people about these false prophets
-
Phrases and words like “essentially free”, “limited time”, and “consultant” are always like red flag words when dealing with any sort of online or at home work
-
my parents used to fall for these all the time, and even at like 14 i knew something was off, but they wouldn't listen to me because of how young i was. now, at 19, I'm paying for rent for my mom in low income housing after being homeless for a year. these really mess up peoples lives and take their money with zero regard
-
reading that list was like that scene of frank and charlie in always sunny in philly charlie: yeah.. but what do we create? frank: what do you mean? we create wealth
-
The most frightening thing about scams is not how bad they can be, but how easily people can fall for them. Atomic Shrimp has some great videos on this subject imo
-
Once again, Charlie underestimates just how gullible the average person is.
-
When people get desperate, their brains turn off. This is also how people also get into cults. These scammers target these kinds of people. They just went through something traumatic, they’re at rock bottom, they’re going through a divorce, they’re grieving the loss of a breadwinner, they’re in foreclosure. These people are being sold a golden ticket.

as a business student these were the most mind boggling 12 minutes of my life
-
“Free training”, aka vaguely talking about nothing for an hour and then pitching a $300 course that’s “actually” worth $3000 dollars
-
Dhar Mann changed more lives than these courses.
-
I almost fell for one of these before. I was desperate for money and motivated to learn. Luckily I was too broke to pay for it lmao
-
My mom once got called by some scammer that tried getting like £900 off of her. The thing was tho, she was in the middle of a different situation with her job getting sorted, something with taxes and all, so she genuinely got so scared that she was about to go through with it. I've spent like 2 hours trying to get her to hang up and convince her that it was a scam call, which in the end surprise, surprise, it was. Pretty sure that if I wasn't there that day she would've sent them that money.
-
The main thing I hate about these types of scams is that it targets financially unstable people who are desperate to just break even so they go even deeper into debt and dig an even deeper hole
-
Scammers: you don't need any money to start your journey to success Also scammers: you need to pay me $2000 to start your journey to success
-
"A fool and his money are easily separated," so they say, but the saddest part about these is that they aren't just targeting fools - they're preying on the poor and those with little prospect for doing better. Why is this legal?
-
It's not a matter of buying these courses to get rich, simply seeing what these "gurus" are doing and realizing you can just do the same thing is value in itself
-
You think everyone just knows that these are scams, but the facts there are so many shows how successful they are at ripping people off, really sad
-
I like how that guy said "This video changed THOUSANDS OF LIVES" but he didn't mention whether it's for the better or for the worse
-
I LOVED watching free trainings with my friends. We used to drink every time they touched money or mentioned it without elaborating how they made it.
-
When I was a child, those kinds of "do this class, become millionaire" thing might have worked on me. Too bad they don't take Elmer's glue bookmarks as currency
