Syndicate Shit Storm
——
UPDATE :: Video taken down by badguys … I’m working on getting it back up in America … please enjoy it in Sweden while we wait … http://www.videoweed.com/file/uz7jy50typr7t
——
UPDATE 2 :: In the interest of making d-bags do more paperwork … it’s back on our friend @_cartman_’s account …
——
2010 started off with so much fake hope :: not to mention a beautiful wedding between two sick old pricks smelling of rot. Oh the memories … it’s costing me so much to have them removed. Things got a little out of hand that night … and I shouldn’t have been yelling “SPANK HER!” like I was … I’m afraid it helped get things going in the wrong direction. Totally my bad. I’ll never stop feeling guilty about what happened to that poor chicken …
But never-mind all that … 20ten also started off with a telephone call between Andy Jenkins and Jeff Walker about the upcoming launch of :: The Video Boss :: Cuzin Andy’s February Syndicate frauduct launch. That’s what we’re going to be talking about today … and for many days to come … because I have the audio of that call. Surprise bitches!!
OMG how much do you hate me right now?
If it makes you feel any better :: I know exactly how much you hate me … and I delight in it like a British schoolgirl at a luxury tea party. Wait :: that probably makes you feel worse … oh well.
In January :: Andy had just left sinking StomperNet with Brad after a bunch of catty bitch fights. The ownership of the StomperNet mailing list was with Brad … so Andy was a half-man alone. No list … no income. Without a list you can’t do anyone any favors. If you can’t do favors :: you can’t get favors. Confucius said that :: I’m pretty sure.
Andy should be screwed blue. He has to start all over :: and now he has the baggage of the StomperNet implosion hanging over his head. Good thing {for him} he’s in a cartel …
The call lasted more than 90 mins :: and it’s a total shocker start to finish! In today’s episode …
– price fixing — Here is the price fixing :: not the rumors of it :: not my hateful accusations about the rumors of it :: here it fucking is … this is EXACTLY what it sounds like.
– me {natch!} — Cause why press “record” if you’re not going to talk shit about The Droid?
– the syndicate — The whole conversation was rich in the use of the plural pronouns “us” and “we”. Names are named … shock is awed.
– anti-competitive behavior — Jeff Walker names several marketplace competitors who are a “threat” to the “them”. One is part of an oft told Syndicate origin story. Yummy!
… and so much more.
The Syndicate packages up the same useless bullshit and sells it to you over and over again. As is clear from the video … they KNOW that’s what they’re doing. Now so do you …

@F-ALL-YOU-DUMB-F’s, “$1.7 Mil a month im that guy,” + “kiss my black ass,” are you Greg Davis of Washington, DC, who charges $25,000 for his “coaching” service? Who claimed a $50,000 day? First seen at Ken McCarthy’s UK System Intensive? The “Super Affiliate Rockstar” who shares “12 Ingredients for Making 5-Figures/Day With ECM” on his email list?
Is the first ingredient from your secret underground blog “mindset?”
I’m just asking. I mean, you could be someone else– EVERYBODY says “mindset” is the first ingredient!!! But if you are Greg Davis, I suggest not charging for you coaching. Take applications, hire and train the most promising people as employees with bonus incentives for performance. Build a real business in your real industry. Right? Keep it real!
Just sayin’. No sense in taking $25 grand ($50 grand for diamond membership!) from people who can’t make it back.
Unless you’re running a scam. I don’t know, I haven’t kissed any asses recently.

You might as well release the entire 90 minutes, before the D-Bags turn it into a $599 product called “Pricing Control” or some bullshit like that.
The D-Bags would probably go as far as saying it was ‘endorsed’ by the Salty Droid.
Checkmate their asses, and release the entire 90 minutes.

Woah Salty,
Is there any way we can get this phonecall verified?
There needs to be more background info on this — some details.
I mean, this is seriously unbelievable. Those two guys have sincerely disrespected every customer they ever had.
I mean, those statements, friggin made me take a step back.
I’d like to expose this myself & spread the word on this.
However, truly, I’d fear the backlash, but, I will find a way to expose it.
Need more background details & verifications on this however.

@Dan Thompson,
No bad taste in my mouth Dan. I just would like to be 100% accurate & factual if I make a statement. That’s the main issues here. One of the problems in this industry is making claims, and making statements that are not verified & accurate.
From what I have read here, it proves a lot of what’s already been going on. “I” just want to be 100% accurate. We can all do better if we can get two or even 3 sources.
I don’t aim to bury my head, I aim to expose this as well.
But I WANT TO BE ACCURATE. But also, there STILL will be a fear of backlash – whereas, even though these people have been bilking their customers, we technically can’t deny that revenue was made. On the other side, there are the people doing things right by their customers, busting their butts, and running a true business — but still have to compete against them.
So, the question is will EVERYONE join in by exposing this stuff? And will people finally acknowledge these facts. But again, “I” at least need to be 100% accurate & verified on this issue. Even though it IS in video.

@brad,
Any real journalist, legitimate blogger would at least try & get a 2nd source on the information.
Why? Because the video was edited. That means the phone call could have been edited.
Take for example The Pimp & Prostitute videos vs. Acorn (in the U.S.). It was found out that the Pimp videos were NOT accurate & were heavily edited.
So, all I have asked was for some additional background, or some additional details, whatever that may be to make additional judgments or expand on what was provided here.
If that makes me an “idiot”, I’ll be the BIGGEST FUCKIN IDIOT there is. But at least I’ll be 100% accurate.
I do not doubt the validity of this, or any of the information. This is definitely a bombshell. But for “ME” – I’m speaking for myself, I’d like to know more info on this. It is definitely a good find.
So, suck these nuts – Brad. Cause if you didn’t understand what I was saying, re-read again, otherwise, keep your dunce hat on.

@Topsi,
Those ACORN videos were real and the people on them said what they said.
Yes, you can edit a video and change the context. No, you cannot “edit” a video and change the very words coming out of someone’s mouth.
The ACORN scum were down with helping someone smuggle kid’s across the border and sell them as sex slaves. They offered to help by showing the (fake) couple how to commit tax fraud.
The ACORN videos were real. The scumbags at ACORN are nothing but disgusting filth.
As is The Syndicate.
Because, editing or not, you can’t LITERALLY put words in someone’s mouth.
They said what they said.

You started commenting on this post at 5am right after it went up … so I think it’s safe to assume this isn’t your first visit to my site.
So do you think I’d fake a call like this … or decontextualize it so as to misframe events? If I’m printing it … you can bet your balls that I’ve verified it more than once. You see that out there on the line? It’s my ass.
That said ….
1. “The call” is actually two calls … they occurred early to mid January 2010.
2. Why release them now as opposed to then? Well … imagine for a moment how maybe they didn’t send them right over to me. “Hey Droid :: fuck you :: here’s your unedited copy. Please ruin us.”
3. I will release the full :: unedited :: files after I’m done playing with my food.
And you’re right … this is some bullshit … get the word out!

In regards to being up at 5am (USA TIME), I was up since the day before, and was just about to go to sleep.
However, I have SD on my netvibes, so, I was doing research on new posts & came to yours. I also learned of a post from Filsaimes site, and he was mentioning your name & some plans he was doing. I emailed you directly on this.
But, yeah, it’s clear now, there are two calls. I’d like to hear the full unedited versions – agreed. And then let everyone know about all of it.

You perspired me (well you know what they say, 90% is perspiration 10% is incineration) to become a doll psychologist.
I thought to myself, how many FBI profiler dolls are abused each year (by people like you)…then I thought….if plastic FBI profilers can be abused, all kinds of dolls can be abused (gawd says this is my calling). When I am done, life in plastic, will really be fantastic. Wouldn’t it be ironical if your FBI profiler is the doll in this video?

I find the phone call eye opening because of the two people involved and that I can’t believe it was recorded. What I don’t find eye opening is what they’re saying.
This interaction could be between ANY of the d-bags you see on Salty’s site. They all have this same conversation. This is not just between the syndicate. Although they’re the most prevalent. They all set the price up high and calculate how many people will buy and how much goes into their pocket, before they even complete the frauduct. They know their product is shit and they expect their customers to eat it.
And how funny is it how they keep talking about you Salty? I think they’re really bothered by you. They pause for a while after discussing you, and then Sandy tries to change subjects and Jeff goes back to talking about you? They’re scared. And they should be.

Mike Long is a former dungeons and dragons turd-ball who has been scamming away in MY niche, the “pick up girls” community.
He ripped off Mystery(one of the Gurus) and his business partner, Chris Odom, then moved on to create Area51 Lifestyle where he is currently promoting a huge fraud, “Speer” on a yahoo group.
Long wanted to business with me, but after hearing tales of his encounters with others, I smelled a rat and ran.
Salty has inspired me to create my own fraud busting blog, “PUAFRAUD.COM”
BTW from the call it sounds like it was recorded on Jenkins end so it must be someone in his camp who got it to the Droid.

“Salty for the win!”?
Ok that phrase rattled my attic. If I had any skills I’d make up a IM-themed graphic of Hollywood Squares with the board filled with various Syndicate members. And Salty in the middle square.
That would beg the question: which Syndicate member reprises the role of Paul Lynde? I don’t see a Charley Weaver in the bunch.
But if Salty is on the board, who is Peter Marshall?
I always thought of the Syndicate as fit for the Gong Show. Salty would be Chuck Barris. Who would walk off with the $516.32?

He’s got John Carlton and Gary Halbert stuff he’s promoting on his site. The only reason these guys are pretending to “expose” each other now, is to cover their own ass NOT because they are trying to be honest. It’s the oldest trick in the book.
“Success Doctor” lol isn’t that what Dan Kennedy started calling himself a marketing doctor of some sort… I remember an audio DVD where Dan Kennedy was saying that you should make up a title with the word doctor in it to position yourself as the authority and that subconsciously the image of a doctor would imprint submission into your target’s mind.
What kind of doctor charges $10,000 to chit chat with you over the course of 30 days??

THANKYOU!
I thought I was the only one around here who thought it was disgusting that Fortin’s defenders have been very vocal around here lately.
He is another dime-a-dozen tacky marketer who is repackaging the same old theories with the same old bloated “Info Marketer Living the Dream” price structure.
Anyone who has bothered to look at any of Dan Kennedy’s stuff would see this all from a mile away. He is the Godfather of divulging tactics and mindsets of the immoral cesspool of info marketing, both offline and the new “IM” version.

@VideoBese,
Wait…you’re defending Kennedy?
Let’s not forget that it was only recently that Kennedy sold his “Phenomenon” program that had hidden continuity billing in it.
There’s a whole thread on it here by the people who got screwed:
http://www.warriorforum.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=211504
I was one of the people who purchased and started getting billed. I went back and scoured the website and saw nothing at all about monthly billing. I believe later it may have been changed to reflect the continuity. I only got notice of it once my product arrived in the mail. LOL!
So how is a Kennedy a “good guy” again?

@Luke,
I’m absolutely NOT defending Kennedy as being someone of a respectable or honorable position in life.
What I’m saying, is that a lot of his stuff, PARTICULARLY HIS OLDER STUFF (90′s, 2000′s), was just about the only info marketing biz op products where he – unlike most of these “gurus” – actually told the ugly truth about what they do, what their mindset is, what the customer feels like and how to play with them for maximum money.
Example? I’ve seen a lot of these biz op gurus crap. The majority are completely phoney “think happy thoughts and your website will send you a box of money after the universal money god finishes rotating around jupiters third moon”
Kennedy never does that shit. He says things like “make it 4 or 5 dvd’s so you can jack up the price. People aren’t going to take off the shrink wrap anyway”.
Absolutely not defending the man. I defend no info marketer, because just about everyone I’ve seen comes off as a cheap tacky car salesman who will do ANYTHING to get your money, even sell you their own mother.
Anyone who has ever put up some hideous ugly long-form sales letter with hypey words in big red bold font, is a douchebag. That’s 99.9% of info marketers.

@VideoBese,
I’m not convinced by your blanket statements…
“I defend no info marketer, because just about everyone I’ve seen comes off as a cheap tacky car salesman who will do ANYTHING to get your money, even sell you their own mother.”
and
“Anyone who has ever put up some hideous ugly long-form sales letter with hypey words in big red bold font, is a douchebag. That’s 99.9% of info marketers.”
So let’s say you worked for 4 years to gain very specific knowledge about something. It’s good usable knowledge and you know for a fact that there are people out there that would like to know it.
If you put it up for free on YouTube the chances are high that the people who would like to know about it will never see it, so why not market to them?
What’s so indefensible about that?
The problem is that anyone who is genuine and has good information to sell now has a seriously difficult job getting their message in front of people because of all the crap that is out there and the slimey methods used to promote it.
But indefensible to market information, I disagree.

You don’t know how to measure delivery.
If you wanted to ignore all the cynical bullshit that proves even Andy didn’t believe in this product {and I’m not sure why you would} … then you’d need to compare Video Boss to other books and products which purport to teach you how to use video editing software etc.
Any such comparison would be a huge fail for Andy and his $2500 scam job.
Plus … there is only one way to actually get good at making web movies … hours and fucking hours of tedious practice.

@SD, have you actually gone through Andy’s course?
Seriously, I have no vested interest in backing this guy. But I personally believe that if I’m going to be critical about shit that sucks, I should also defend good stuff.
OF COURSE a book on editing video will cost less than his course. And watching the superbowl on TV will cost less than buying tickets. And taking a philosophy class will cost more than reading a bunch of philosophy books.
But let’s even forget that for a second. Andy’s course wasn’t just about editing video, it was about writing scripts. Creating sales videos, creating video products, using green screen . . . and doing it for marketing purposes. It was a specialized niche product for internet marketing. I LOOKED for a book on how to write direct sales scripts for marketing videos and I couldn’t.
And I DID had to spend HUNDREDS of hours applying what I learned from Andy. Not to mention about $1k on audio/visual equipment. But the work did pay off.
From the YouTube video you created it’s obvious that you see how long and tedious video editing is. I agree. But his course was a huge shortcut.
Look, I totally get that some products in this space are overpriced. I’ve bought $2k products before and returned them during the 30 day money back guarantee period. But I didn’t return this one because it was frankly very good.
I believe that every market needs checks and balances, and I’m grateful that you’re here to keep people on their toes. I don’t have anything against you or Andy. Just respect for both of your because you’re both EXCELLENT marketers.

@Some Guy,
First I had no interest in viewing or reviewing the product. I saw your post [[took a quick look]] and I had to chime in. Funny I must have been given the video boss lite. I have some 262 files spread over 47 folders and of those 262 TOTAL files 69 are pdf’s/mindmaps. Are you claiming I have missing files? Not likely [[where you pulled 1000 "videos" from is beyond me]].
First and foremost, anyone not familiar with NLEs [[non-linear editors]] will find this coarse USELESS for the most part.
As for the theory, you can go to Chapters/Indigo and pick up a couple of books for less then $100 on all the theory of camera angles, lighting, storyboarding, etc [[another 50 for a marketing book if you really need it...tribal profiles?...pahlease...try target audience...a rose by any other fucked up name...will still be an antiquated re-hashed notion, using more "modern" terminology to rebrand crap to those who don't equate the new term to their old paradigm [[fuck...not sure I used any words in proper context...cool...i'm a fucking expert]]…..that’s sHake-a-spear [[well just that rose thingy]]…i’m sKcooled..thank you Harlem High]]
His [[Jenkins]] “teaching” Avid Express pro [[$1700 for the program alone]] is haphazard [[SHOWing a spec here and there]]..I noticed he did it with Premiere pro too. If you didn’t know how to use NLEs before taking this coarse, you won’t know how to use NLEs after taking the coarse [[fuck it's going to take people 6 months just to realize they didn't learn anything that will do them any fucking good]].
Second, you would have to spend another 1K [[about $2.5K will get you CS5 Production Master...which has their [[Adobe's]] whole suite of products..except for Audio Audition..they do give soundbooth…but it sucks shit]] on some sort of photo/asset editing software [[ie: photoshop, Illustrator]], and if they don’t integrate with your NLE [[and native Adobe files, will ONLY integrate in Premiere pro and After Effects AFAIK - CMIIW]], then you have to spend time and effort recreating ALL digital assets for each “shot” [[are you kidding me...and you can basically toss any animations [[other then basic transitions]] out the fucking window since you had to create a non-editable “bitmap” format]], instead of keeping editable layers from either program, which would allow you to alter sizes for different video resolutions seamlessly [[something very much required for different web locations]] and “animate” them flawlessly [[funny...he doesn't mention any of that]].
So please “some guy”, tell me where you found value in this, and I will take a closer look at those modules and re-evaluate [[better yet, create a master piece from what you learned and show it here]]…but [[as it stands now]] your answer appears contrived and non-sensical…it looks like a blatant promotion for a sub-standard product [[sorry if I didn't bring down my expectations as low as yours...but every time I act like Arnie Grape my wife hits me in the back of the head...and that shit hurts]].
BTW, just an FYI, technically it’s not “green screen” it’s chroma key [[different primary colors work for different applications Mr. Video Boss]], and [[chromakey]] was big in ’90s for infomercials and just screams cheese…welcome to 2010 pal.
Fuck, I used keying in my Andros video [[okay granted I rotoscoped 98.6% of her..but only cuz I couldn't get her on a keyable background...that's my story and I'm sticking to it]], but my video(s) were meant to scream fucking cheese…why?…it matched her useless [[$2,500]] coarse and her false expertise [[that's what a pair-a-d is...kidding I know it's pear]]. With my crooked titles..Andros slow simple speech [[while keeping pitch..suck it]]…her plastic [[I believe someone referred to it as "Marilyn Manson"]] look..and Cartman’s eyes acting like she’s a retarded simpleton, I made into video, the circus fucking side show she peddled to an unsuspecting crowd [[who thought were going to get help learning something worthwhile]].
If you think the “quality” of a video [[or video for that matter]] is going to sell anyone on a product [[other then a video production coarse]] or a service, you are in the wrong fucking “business”. And while you buy his [[Jenkins]] “theory”. You buy it because you WANT [[choose]] to believe it will work for you, not because you do believe it will.
I had a “talk” with a rockstar realtor [[no fucking joke]], telling me how he has someone who is going to turn him into a video star and how he is going to make money out the wazoo[[showed me his videos...hey Salty, should I link it here. I literally asked him if he was fucking with me]].
What a fucking joke…I asked the guy, “Why do you think anyone gives a fuck if you have a video”[[that's exactly what I said, because I'm classy]]…He said it’s different, makes him stand out [[umm...yeah...okay]].
You know who gives a crap what realtors have to say on video? Other realtors who want to see what other realtors are doing on video [or are still having wet dreams that they are going to make a fortune selling real estate...wake the fuck up realtors]]. Showing a house [[or a realtor]] on video is “theoretically sound”, but you know how many houses I look at before I am about to buy? Too fucking many to try and navigate a couple hundred videos wasting hours of my time, when I can do the same thing in less then a half hour with pics. And if I miss a fucking picture or I want to go back to a “certain house”…it’s NOT fucking a pleasant experience [[just an FYI to dentists reading here...if you use videos to show your practice....STOP....boring realtors are one thing...scary dentists..a whole new thing]]
If I am purchasing or selling a home, the only thing I want to know about the person who is doing the transaction for me, is what “incentive” they are going to charge in commission reduction [[if I am selling]], or what incentive [[ie:cash back]] are they throwing my way [[if I am buying]]. I personally don’t give a shit if the person is happy in their marriage, or if they are getting a divorce tomorrow [[and I don't give a crap about their wife, their kids, or their little dog too...sad but true]]. I don’t even give a fuck if they are competent for that matter [[since the lawyer does all the real work]], the only thing I care about is if they can follow simple fucking instructions.
You were sold on theoretical BS, and you bought it “hook, line, and persuasion”…and now you are trying to sell it to us…
PS – BTW, your buddy Jenkins..in that little “test” where he shows the 8K [or whatever the fuck it cost] camera next to a $200 hd mini cam, and the mini cam looks better..he rendered the video at a lower bitrate to lose some detail…nice trick…Jenkins is a very high integrity individual…I’ll await your response to my questions, but I won’t hold my breath.
@everyone else
Guys…I’m stuck….total creative block [[and the universal has been down]]…31 layers and 1min 15seconds into my production…and I don’t know where to go. I rendered and put up just the intro [[for reasons I can't disclose]], and maybe it will inspire some ideas. If anyone has any creative ideas shoot me an email on youtube amazinglienow [[other major problem, I have very little to work with..well very little newer material anyways]]. I am keeping the production value on this one higher [[for reasons I can't disclose]]…so bear that in mind [[wrong bear...but I wanted to give you polar dreams]]…
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9xVntLqwR4
PS – Salty, your bullet made it to my video [[weird huh]] whether it [[the video]] makes it off the bathroom floor is still not known yet…butt…it turned into an elongated 9mm round and looks like a mean pitbull on a mission now….not a happy go lucky bullet like you had [[was your bullet on X]]

Cartman is right. “Video Boss” is a collection of slung-together crap. And yeah, I’ve seen it (I think it fell off a truck).
One way you can tell it’s thrown together: Andy’s video “training” on Avid is OLD. It uses a VERY old version of Avid, which tells me he just tossed that in there (probably from some old recycled Stompernet crap he had lying around).
Lots of dull, lifeless mindmap stuff as Cartman indicated. Not that mindmaps can’t be useful when properly done, but when you rely on them as a crutch, they become a blur.
If you took 1/2 (or less) of the price of “Video Boss” and bought specialized books on each subject area, you WOULD DEFINITELY have a much deeper understanding of ALL the subject areas, and then some.
This is one of those “products” that really leaned on buildup and “feelgood” more than in-depth instruction.
Overpriced? Absolutely! Then there’s the little matter of supporting the “man” behind it and what he stands for – or doesn’t stand for.
Just look at Andy’s own videos. Some people actually think they are good (and some kind of benchmark) just because of the bullshit “social proof” from biased affiliates. Well, they aren’t. They are postulating bullshit that couldn’t convince a hungry dog to lick a steak flavored postage stamp.

Here’s I guess a more reliable source:
“Price fixing is an agreement among competitors to raise, fix, or otherwise maintain the price at which their goods or services are sold. It is not necessary that the competitors agree to charge exactly the same price, or that every competitor in a given industry join the conspiracy. Price fixing can take many forms, and any agreement that restricts price competition violates the law.”

@Kann, everyone is always talking about “price fixing” and no one talks about “conspiracy.” In the good old USA, we have conspiracy laws. We are one of the only countries left using conspiracy laws to imprison our population. Russia and China are also countries that still use this crazy, broad sweeping law to put people away forever. Essentially, if two people have committed a crime or are accused of a crime, and they both say a third party committed the crime as well…PRESTO…you have a conspiracy.
Why is this relevant?
If criminal fraud were to be committed, the obvious route to easy prosecution , or should I say, most likely indictment, would be conspiracy to commit a crime. When more than two people “conspire” to commit a fraud–a crime–then then it becomes a conspiracy case.
If indeed anyone has committed a crime, they will be way more likely to get in trouble for fraud and conspiracy to commit the fraud than anything to do with price fixing.
The laws for “mail fraud” were basically created to get the mob(how fitting) and it’s so broad and subjective, that if a person is accused of mail fraud, its an easy road for the government.
As I have stated in earlier posts, the civil fraud statute and the criminal fraud statute read, literally, word-for-word the same. There is only one word that makes them different and that word is “intent.” If the government can prove intent, then it becomes a criminal case. If they feel it was non-intentional fraud, then it becomes a civil proceeding.
I heard an internet marketer and his first name is “rich” and he was doing a training on webinars. He said that in his sales video, he had a picture of a super house. Not his house, just a big ass house. He said, “oh, well, I didn’t say it was my house!” Then he proceeded to laugh about how people thought it was his home. He even stated that people asked to take pictures of his mansion.
Here’s the problem: some people, for sure, purchased the package with the influence of thinking that was his home. That was the stated purpose(as acknowledged and laughed about by himself in front of many witnesses, who also laughed) He then proceeded to talk about how that was actually a technique to use in your webinars. He was so excited that he didn’t actually say it was his home.
Let me assure you that anyone who thinks that,”not saying it” lets you off the hook; well, they are in for a really shitty time at club fed.
The internet community is going to be in for a big surprise when these guys are indicted on mail fraud charges and they are going to be saying, “I did everything by the book.” Most lawyers are not even advising these marketers properly. The government doesn’t give a damn whether you actually said it or not. It is what the average person watching would reasonably assume.
I am not giving legal advice in any way.
These are some of the issues I don’t hear being discussed and they are important and apropos.
Well… maybe they are being discussed. I haven’t read all of SD’s blog. Sorry for that presumption.
We need to create a new level of ethics in the whole of business. It really isn’t up to the government, its up to us to police and create new opportunities and more blogs, etc.
It’s great to rant on Jason’s blog. There needs to be a movement and many more jason’s with different personalities so more people can get the message. There needs to be a non-profit dedicated to providing quality information to people starting out so these assholes won’t have as much power.

I never thought about this, but Frank Kern postures himself as this “Laid back surfer dude”, but does he even surf? I looked through YouTube for videos of him surfing and came up empty. So Does he really surf, or is that just an artificial persona?

@Frank Kern Doesn’t Know How To Swim,
The surfer dude is persona is fake. Its an act, and Kern admits it himself. What he’s ultimately selling is the laid back “lifestyle”.
His target audience are middle aged white guys who hate their lives, they hate their jobs, and aren’t really looking to get rich, they’re looking for the lifestyle that “being rich” will bring them. That’s what Kern is ultimately selling… something intangeble. Like religion. Which is why he can repeatedly under-deliver, and still have a loyal following of converts to the Kern way of life.
Kern is very uncomfortable in front of audiences, and an introvert at heart. You can see it when he let’s his guard down.
This isn’t to justify Kern. Kern’s a scammer. But this is the method behind his madness.

@Shit Storm, The “authorities” probably are not aware, certainly not of the depth and breadth of what may be taking place. They typically have a lot on their plates, and even if they get some isolated complaints, they are just that…isolated. Unless you dig deep like SD has, and spend a lot of time focused on this stuff, the correlations may not be so obvious on the surface. Given that, the “authorities,” being human, tend to go for the slam dunk obvious cases (of which there are always plenty enough to occupy their time).
That’s not to say they won’t in due time start digging. However, if you want to see real action, a thoroughly detailed complaint, clearly written with facts and real data (and no emotion), sent to the FCC and state DA’s offices, might get the ball rolling.
Nobody should pass the buck and expect SD to do all the heavy lifting though. Thanks to SD, every reader of this blog now has plenty of info and the power to actually do something if they so choose. It only takes one, but realize that almost everyone assumes that someone else will carry the ball, so often, nobody does anything. That alone is probably the #1 reason this stuff has persisted and could continue to do so. Want action? Take it right now. It starts with you.

@Viewfinder, its a real simple formula for what the government pays attention to. They look at the number of complaints to the BBB and directly to the agencies. Or an unhappy insider. If you were to take a tenth of the energy and comments and complaints on this blog and had some formal way to get them to the right people, it would create formal criminal and civil investigations.
SD> you could put up a form and places for people to email the complaints and create a method for getting this sentiment and dissatisfaction to the proper people. It is about having someone champion the cause. Every business, every cause, everything, needs a “champion” a “leader” to make it happen. A well orchestrated cause.

It would be impossible for the Feds to monitor and evaluate everything that happens in the business world. Relying on reports may be the only manageable way to do it. It sucks, but that’s the reality.

I mostly study the way “they” market themselves. Their eMail campaigns, the product launch, the pay process, 3rd party endorsements, etc…
I’ve never bought any of their products.

@Jack,
I have launched (2) successful campaigns this year following the “Launch Process” that has been used by these so-called goobers.
I used the video format almost identical to Video Boss by Andy Jenkins. The same format that most are using now, like Mike Filsaime, Chris Farrell, Paul Lemberg, and many others including one that just ended yesterday http://members.salestubesite.com/sales_pages/101
I did a launch to my own list with NO affiliates. I made 6 figures in less than one week offering a much needed service (done for you marketing). Cumulative over a one year period I will earn in excess of $300,000.
This was all taught to me by these “goobers” in the Syndicate for FREE.
I didn’t pay them a dime, I have never met them, I simply followed the PROCESS they were using. I saved their email campaigns, snagged their copy, and downloaded every video.
There is nothing wrong with using their “process” as long as you are offering the client value and they see a Return on Investment.
IMHO their is no need to invest in anything they are offering, the Warrior Forum does have “some” good marketing members there. It’s the Moderators and the Owner (Allan Says) that SUCK!
No one here can deny their Marketing ability, skills, etc… they are very good at that. Why do you think they make so much money in the first place? The so-called syndicate is useless unless you can monetize your product or service.
I think most of the syndicate suck, especially Russell Brunson and Mike Filsaime, but they definitely know how to market.
Let’s be honest about our reviews.

It’s a FACT. These guys are NOT good marketers. They use shortcuts, insider tagteams, and similar methods to market. Certainly not the same stuff they teach their “customers.”
Consider the HUGE volume of potential “fresh” suckers they now need to pull off one of their launches.
A MILLION people, just to get a very tiny percentage of buyers? Why is that? Because they are INEFFECTIVE, INEFFICIENT, and dependent on sheer NUMBERS and pie in the sky promises to reach a small group of uninitiated “customers.” At this point, a lot of these guys are just operating on what’s left of past fumes.
Your average corporation would CHOKE on those results. And the returns! They have insanely high return rates. People just don’t return something they are happy with.
No, if you consider the big picture, and the state of social media communication today, these guys can’t continue without getting bolder and bolder. That’s not marketing, that’s cutting corners.

@Mary, Dakota and Brian are broke now,
Uh, that’s NOT my sales page, lol. I was simply showing a FORMAT that I used to launch my current membership site.
@ Salty Droid
I sent an email to over 10,000 subscribers (I rented the list from a major data supplier) using the Launch process that Andy Jenkins is promoting: httcrap://get.kajabi.com/funnel_events/316
I target business owners to help them with Internet Marketing and Sales in general. Many businesses are being decimated today because of the downturn in this economy.
Bus owners were used to doing business using old methods like the Yellow Pages and word of mouth, spray & pray type advertising.
I sold 60 mebers @ $1,997, almost $120,000. I allowed for 20% slippage, returns, etc… I offered a 30 day Free look, no questions asked Guarantee for a 10 week course.
I was planning on a 40% dropout rate because of the rented list I purchased.
The 30 day Free look expired and only 4 members dropped out, leaving me with 56 sales. The 4 refunds were promptly sent within hours. I had one customer complain 24 hours after he asked for a refund why he didn’t get his refund and he was going to the ABC agencies. I told him I sent his refund via my merchant account 5 minutes after his email. He replied, holy chit I’m so sorry, no one ever refunded my money that fast! I totally missed your email reply. I didn’t say anything but I could feel his embarrassment over the phone ;-)
At the end of the training modules (not finished yet) I am offering “done for you marketing” services on an annual basis. I am charging $9,997 for 12 months with a 100% credit (the $1,997 initially paid) towards the final price.
The specific niche I am targeting will yield a return on investment of at least 10-1 from using my services.
I have not concluded the 10 week period yet so I have no idea how many will convert. My guess is that over 50% will because they have seen significant improvements in the first 4 weeks of training. They have already made up for the price of my initial consulting.
It doesn’t take much to help business owners with their marketing, they don’t know shit about marketing whatsoever. A few tweaks to their business and 30% annualized is no big deal in most situations (not all).
I may easily take in over $600,000 in Annualized fees, time will tell.
I study the masters, the old legends. The Syndicate aint got shit over the True Masters, but they do enough to make themselves some nice bank.
Copy is King!
Dr Pepper
P.S. I’ll be very curious as to what Andy Jenkins offers this Kujabi for. I heard he’s going for monthly continuity of $97 month. If that’s true then he will have many sign ups (100′s maybe even over a thousand), probably me also. If anyone has used httcrap://businesscatalyst.com/ please give me your opinion.
P.P.S. Dan Kennedy, Gary Halbert, and many others have taught me well.
P.P.P.S. I have no connection with the Syndicate whatsoever, however, I do see some of them at Ken McCarthys System Seminar conventions. Most are aholes. If anyone has dirt on Ken McCarthy I would like to hear it.
P.P.P.P.s. I still think Andy Jenkins makes great videos and has a natural voice for narration.

@_cartman_, You are exactly right. Those sale and return statistics should be considered ATROCIOUS!
That almost looks like their only hope for keeping any of that revenue is purely buyer APATHY and procrastination (putting off or otherwise not getting around to requesting a refund), and NOT likely buyer “satisfaction.”
In fact, mainstream merchant credit card processors and banks would probably SHUT DOWN the average business account if they saw return numbers like that. Normal store returns are a FRACTION of the huge percentage these guys admit to.

Not taking his side by the way, I spoke against Eben many times. His over-priced $200-300 programs filled with fluff will wipe your wallet cleaner than the Laundromats.
Let me expose one little secret about Eben: All his dating programs have the same information one way or they other. His more expensive programs simply make things more complicated and long to justify the price. It is also very repetitive with the SAME info found in his cheap $20 dollars ebooks.
Like I said, the guy is GREEDY…
I also don’t know why he lives in a 1000 sq ft apartment if claims to make around $25 mil a year.
I’m not saying that he doesn’t but that is probably one really uncomfortable apartment. I’d move into at least a 3,000 sq ft home or apartment regardless of income for me to feel comfortable.
It’s funny because even doctors who make a fraction of what claims to make live in a much more comfortable residence which makes his income claims to be suspect.
His business courses are also way over-priced & can cause you to lose a lot of money.
One thing you can learn from Eben is selling and marketing… Just read his sales pages and study them.
He’s also VERY cunning and crafty with his image. He portrays himself as this white-collar successful man who is really earning his money honestly. They way he speaks can also fool people into thinking he is something that he is not.
Be careful from him because I would consider him more dangerous than people who are blunt with their dishonesty.

@SyndicateExposed, That’s 93 square metres of the apartment. That is preatty god damn large if you ask me – for an apartment – it must be 4 bedroom. The apartment is probably the same price as a 250 square metre house. I am not defending Deby Pagan just, saying you might have miscalculated.

@Eben Pagans Mole,
Another complicating factor with refunds (and perhaps an additional reason the B Team are useful) is getting non-Syndidate bonuses. Because you (or in this case me, the pathetic fucking wannabe) build a ‘relationship’ with the B Teamer you feel guilty in getting a refund, or the bonus is spread out or delayed until you’re outside the refund period. Obvious I know but thought I’d mention it.
Slightly more off topic (ie non Syndicate) is the now less common refund with strings attached -ie if you do everything we say and don’t succeed we will refund. I had this experience with Keith ‘Duelling Banjo’s’ Wellman – piece of crap product that I had no intention of persevering with due to abysmal quality-could not get a refund. He also allegedly ‘pioneered’ the long video sales page, which coincidentally is trickier to copy and re-examine later etc.

@SD,
Ha ha. I remember the days when Pagan was still my student and he was living in a tiny apartment in LaJolla. He was soft and doughy back then and liked to wear a (fake) Rolex and brag about how it was a gift from some real estate due for whom he marketed.
He also thought that jokes about molesting kids were funny. He used to do this routine about some guy who would molest a kid named Billy, with lines like, “Now, Billy. I don’t want to do it to you neither. But if I don’t the bad men will come and take you away from me.”
I’m not kidding about this.
Fucking sociopath, but a weasel with incredible skill at faking affinity for others.
He will never forgive me for breaking the hold he had on his girlfriend. He had bragged to me how he had her under a “hypnotic seal” and could make her do anything. So he brought her over to my condo and said, “Do whatever you like with her”.
I broke the seal he had on her. (Took 3 minutes, he’s not that good a hypnotist although he can probably BORE anyone into trance). Then I told her what a deep level douche he really was for doing that to her.
Found out from an angry Pagan, the next day, that she dumped his ass.
Best thing I ever did.

Check out one of Jeffries’ hypnotic “techniques.” This one is called the blowjob pattern and it’s about the most idiotically creepy thing I’ve ever read.
[Yeah well, do you like chocolate? (Or is there a food that when you see it you absolutely have to put it in your mouth?). I mean, can you stop and remember a time when you saw a piece of chocolate and your mouth is already tasting it before you even put it in, and you can already taste that sweetness against your tongue and you can feel the special rich texture of it against your tongue as well. You know that texture that really good chocolate has.
And then there's that moment, that moment when the first molecule of chocolate touches your tongue and you know it's inside your mouth and you just want to keep it there because it's so rich and so good. And there's that extra special warmth when you swallow that sweetness down.]
Is Jeffries is just another douchebag scammer. Gee, I don’t know. Why don’t you try this awesome technique on a girl and see how it works.
Or alternatively, downgrade me.
Whatevs.

It’s an outdated pattern now, because thanks to all the BJ and Bukkake videos ont he net, it’s hard to find a woman who *won’t* give you a blowjob.
But there was a time in the mid 90s when a woman still associated sucking d*ck with being trashy. Can you imagine that? In those days, the BJ pattern was welcome and necessary.

One one side, they are slinging truly fucked up rebill bizopps, OR everything else. In the end, capitalism is fucked up since you profit off your fellow man, but that is just the way it is.
The thing that makes all these assholes fucked up, is they sell fraudulent marketing information to would-be entrepreneurs. Package it up and throw a ridiculous price tag on it. Like Aaron Wall said, 99% of these motherfuckers are destined to fail because thay are still “looking for the secret” and not testing things (ie trying things and gaining actual experience). They quite literally price gouge the FUCK out of the people who ‘could’ start companies and hire people and who provide real jobs. Gurus speak of “providing value”, but in the implementation of the campaign are doing anything but.

Aaron is long-established (many years) and deals with many larger companies that demand and discern professional experience. In professional circles, Aaron Wall is extremely well regarded. He doesn’t deserve to be mentioned anywhere on this blog except as a much more valuable and authentic alternative to the posers that appear here.
On the other hand, as you just heard in Andy Jenkin’s recording above, Jenkins intentionally paraded his “product” as BIZOP. He called it a “business in a box.” There is a WORLD of difference, and a world of implied results.

I even disagree that a quality course shouldn’t cost even $2000. There’s nothing wrong with it, even though the DVDs might be $.50 each to press. It’s the experience and value of the instructor and information contained on the DVDs. Why does a Yale education cost $200K? Price alone isn’t a reflection.

@Dr Pepper,
Do let us in on the maths behind that incredibly precise ‘valuation’ – I’m sure I wouldn’t be the only one interested.
$97 is not the ‘worth’ of the product. You’re just pegging the program randomly into one of the long-established tiers used by the Syndicate, among others. My fake secretary Debbie (everyone has one these days) has put together an easy table for you, valued at $97.
$17 – Entry-level PDF of under 50 pages. Follow with upsell.
$37 – Larger ‘book’ in PDF form
$67 – Monthly fee for forum membership
$97 – Quick and easy, 6-10 videos, ‘magic bullet’ clickbank product.
$497 – Quick and easy, 6 or more videos, ‘magic bullet’ product (you’ve done this bit Debbie..) sold in 2007, with mumbling introduction, module on SEO, etc.
$1997 – Same product as 2007, but in 2009, with inflation at 100% per annum, due to the uncertain economic climate (not sure that’s correct Debbie…sharpen up!)
$4997 – monthly fee for Platinum Mastermind, where you get on the phone every month to your most valued customers and sell them all the above products. (Debbie, you’re fired.)
The numbers mean nothing. Try to dissociate your concept of value from syndicate prices. There are numbers between $97 and $497 you know…and they don’t all end with a 7.

They can’t take back their much-lamented admissions, but they are probably sure glad people like you “volunteer” to help them gloss things over. Too bad for them it’s all sufficiently outrageous to cover up.

In the real world an 18% – 30% refund rate would kill most businesses unless the profit margin was astronomical. Even then, it would be a relatively short run because you’d minimize or eliminate repeat business.
But even in the online affiliate world (i.e. affiliate as in legitimate online business, not Ponzi schemes, boiler rooms, frauducts, etc.), a rule of thumb that virtually everybody knows (at least I thought it was common knowledge) was that if you’re promoting something as an affiliate, the refund rate should be below 5 and never above 8%.
So knowing the metrics, why would a legitimate affiliate promote Syndicate crap in the first place?
Is it they don’t know the metrics?
Are the B-teamers just complete idiots?
Or is it something else?
Very strange.

@Toadstool,
50% refunds indicates the crap they’re putting out smells so bad that even their marks can tell the difference.
The 11% on a $2000 frauduct … hmmm … maybe the sucked-in don’t realize it’s crap until the after the refund period?
Or maybe at that price, the patsy thinks, it must be something wrong with them and not the product.
Sick stuff (as in sick bad, not sick good). :-(

@Hal, I don’t think it kills their business because of the volume of launches. That’s why we see so many launches happening each month – new volume in to replace the old volume out.
As for their B-teamers, I think it’s because they revere the A-Teamers as being big-league. Gay. The 2nd tear guys mailing this crap need to get a clue. They are responsible for a high percentage of the “new blood” that goes into these lists. Most A-teamers have the same battered list of subscribers that they’ve used for years, and the B-teamers get suckered into giving up their fresh leads for a phone call or an atta-boy on the competition chart. Sofa king we todded.

It would also explain the inordinate amount of Syndicate sycophants and trolls appearing on this site regardless of the evidence Droid posts.

I make very good money at “done for you services” for business owners, I can assure you that most of my knowledge can be found via Aweber and thru the internet.
Info can be found everywhere, who has the time to search for it, implement the ideas and test.
People pay for info all the time. I pay my attorney a chitload of money for LLCs, trustwork, etc… because I don’t have the time to research this shit, nor do I want to. My attorney, like most (sorry Salty) scams me for everything. Charges me $6 per page for every single page he sends or receives via fax, charges me in Ten minute increments for 1 phone call even if the line is busy. They are all the same, no accountability.
But I pay the fuckers anyways because my time is more valuable.
Money buys SPEEED!

He’s also a far better marketer than any of these internet clowns. Millions believe in the fiction of cuddly ‘ol Uncle Warren as your favorite, hard working, play-by-the-rules capitalist.

Buffett makes a ton of money these days by scooping up big family businesses that have to be split up due to estate taxes. Basically they have to be sold for a discount, which is free money for a guy who is already sitting on a big pile of it. The richest gets richer thanks to confiscatory taxation that won’t even let you expire without taking a cut.
And guess who thinks estate taxes should be a lot higher and should cover more people?

Are you fucking retarded?
In a 2 week period, Salty has posted 2 audio recordings of these fucking idiots premeditating, and plotting to rip the market off through price fixing, inflating prices, and just being all around assholes.
It wouldn’t be so bad if they didn’t try to portray themselves as being your best fucking friend. At the end of the day though, many of them are creating products, and selling shit for a couple grand that they have never done themselves. Ryan Deiss sells a 2K traffic course when he couldn’t get traffic if he cut a fucking hole in the fence from Mexico, and retarded assholes such as yourself thinks that is perfectly fine, for who knows what reason.
If you listen to the Frank Kerns, John Reeses, Eban faggot Pagen, and the rest of the idiots it’s all about building relationships, anyone just starting out can create value, and get partners in the market, and get rich. Yeah fucking right! These fuckers have their own little “team” and their launch sequences set up to run everyone else out of town, and to keep people that want to and are capable of delivering value out of the market place.
These idiots need to have their asses kicked in a big way. At least one of these idiots is going to fall, maybe more after all of the syndication talk, and the price fixing, and all the other shit that they admit to on audio like jerk offs.

Sorry bud… I don’t think I have been drinking any kool aid. In fact being a Brit I wasn’t really sure what the expression meant so I googled it and good old google via wikipedia states:
“Drinking the Kool-Aid” means becoming a firm believer in something: accepting an argument or philosophy wholeheartedly or blindly. The term originated with the Jonestown Massacre,[1][2][3] where members of the Peoples Temple were said to have committed suicide by drinking Kool-Aid laced with cyanide.[4]
I think that Mike’s comments on that particular blog post do not reflect at all well on him and having spent some ten years working in Public Relations before getting involved in the online world I can safely say that his comments are excessively bad relationship management. You don’t attack back except extremely rarely and you certainly don’t attack back in an immature manner, which his posts came across as being.
From a drinking kool-aid point of view if you read my post you would have seen that I actually quite like Mike Flisaime. The fact I also enjoy Salty Droid should be proof enough that unlike you I don’t accept arguments wholeheartedly.

A fly on the wall hears:
I bet some other gurus are behind this!
How do we put a stop to the droid?
Things they should have been discussing:
Can we keep our employees out of jail?
Can we promise our JV partners that they won’t be named in a class action suit?
How do we survive without our reputations? (hint: you will rise back up under pseudonyms like cockroaches)

Funny thing is, they all try to run and tell the droid each other’s dirty secrets while smiling in each other’s faces during pre-launch calls and at seminars. It’s playing both sides hoping to get the max out of each side.

@Racoon Eyes Mike,
Yep…the name is Irwin…and it really fits the target…[ insert image of backwoods country fucks from Deliverance ] since he DID crawl out from under a log up in the sticks in the Midwest (seriously) to be living the high life in the super-rich, elite 92037 zip code while the people who work their asses off and go into massive debt to afford the salvation his systems and approaches promise go on foodstamps so their families can survive…because if they can just find the one thing that works, maybe they can be living in the big house in ultra-rich-ville…or at least able to afford a house and food without government assistance…Frank doesn’t care…he’s playing his guitar…and living fat and sassy off your money…which he gets via mainline to your emotions, psyche, dreams, desperation…
The Best Part is he does all of this with ZERO conscience…feels he’s earned it for being scammy enough to wheedle people out of money they don’t have by lying to them during the second Great Depression that they can find the golden road to wealth using his bullflap…if they’ll just shell out more cash for his Maserati payment…oh, that’s OK, he doesn’t care that they just sold their last pint of blood to give him that money…
Irwin Kern is a simple, happy-go-scammy country buttfucker…er, I meant, bumpkin (sure I did)…don’t take my word for it, here’s something I love: Proof!

I’m late to the party as usual, but this is one of your best videos ever, Salty. It’s interesting how the boys go on and on about how insignificant you are — so insignificant that you are apparently part of their marketing strategies now. (Taking a cue from their more “spiritual” cousins the New-Wage/McSpirituality gurus, they try to spin it as you being miffed because they charge big money for their frauducts.)
Meanwhile, their contempt for their marks comes through loud and clear, as it has in the seekrit exchanges you previously posted.

That’s what they do…
They talk like you are just a ATM machine with a unlimited credit line behind their customers’ backs. These guys are parasites!
To your face they talk like they really care about you. But truthfully that is all an act. Many people are unable to see this because these guys are good at acting like they really care about you.
But they don’t…
Bernie Madoff did the same thing – he acted like he really cared about his clients. Many of them talked about how he talked to them very kindly and he looked like such a kind, nice, generous and honest person who was really out there to help them.
One lady talked about how he behaved like a father to his clients.
The best scam artists are the best actors. These guys do not really care about their “customers”.
Are they slick salesmen? Yes. They know how to manipulate people. You can certainly learn by observation.

“The best scam artists are the best actors. These guys do not really care about their “customers”.”
Welcome to the byline of modern society.
The modern heroes, our actors on TV, and our actors in Washington. Yes, I say actors, because our politicians have no substance or oringinality. They are all hype, and they use hype, and everyone is under the assumption today that they are full of it.
Just like a marketer. Saying exactly what you want to hear. Tune in for this politicians speech (oh, you mean, video sales letter).
I hate to deviate from the point of the Syndicate here, but, I believe this a valid “zoomed out” view, as Eben Pagan likes to call it. No, I’m not a fan of him, or any other IM phoney car salesmen.
Just pointing out the source of disrespect here. And that is, lack of substance, originality, effort, etc. Just about every characteristic term you can extract from an IM “Guru” when you think about it, and you take the antonym (opposite) of that word/characteristic, you’ll probably be able to attribute those antonyms to the people you respect / admire the most.

@Yep,
Totally agree.
Selling gets corrupted by people who have no real substance and value.
These guys are not teachers or smart. If you want to learn go to the library and a good bookstore as well as getting a mentor. Start applying the knowledge as well.
Influence and persuasion can be used to con or convince people to get something which is good for them.
In my experience, you usually don’t need to sell all the time to make a sale if the product can sell on it’s own.
Do you ever have Steve Jobs pressuring into buying the newest model of the macbooks?
Selling does need to be used at times though for legitimate purposes. And many companies who are 100% legit do sell and use persuasion. Car companies do it. Not all car salesmen are bad.
But in my experience all con artists need to sell HARD… And for lots of money. Using scarcity and other bs.
Also keep in mind that legitimate information writers don’t pressure people into buying their books or courses nor do they come out every month with some new frauduct.
I think the the frauduct launches are also getting really old. Notice how they were talking in the phone call about $2000 is no longer doing it.
They now have to start charging $5000 to make the same money. digusting.

@SyndicateExposed,
I also think the reason why refund rates are lower with $5000 is because people maybe too ashamed in asking for one.
People don’t want to admit they got conned, made a mistake and they don’t want to face it.
I believe they also feel they won’t get their money back deep inside so they don’t ask for one out of fear of finding out and confirming their suspicions that indeed they were taken.
It’s just hurts a person’s dignity.
We all must care about each other and learn to make the world a better place. I hate see people lose their money. Especially single mothers. That one really breaks my heart.

If anybody needs to get a refund from buying anyone of these bs courses do it NOW!
If they refuse, do a chargeback with your credit card company. They will listen to you and do it.
If they fight the chargeback, you fight back as well. Use all the proof you have.

@SyndicateExposed,
It’s completely ugly, because they know that it is those naive people who don’t fully understand the internet NOR marketing NOR influence tactics (fake scarcity, fake social proof), that will buy into this hook line and sinker because these guys put on an honest noble front with their images.
THEY KNOW that these naive people are going to be the ones blowing $2000 or $5000, and they know that at least a good chunk, are going to be sticking it on a credit card, and they know they go into it with a gambling mentality that they are betting on a sure thing to get them from a position of insecurity and instability, to a position of security and stability.
And at the end of the day, these guys know that they are – as Mr. Jenkins has alluded – NOT selling a magic bullet at these ridiculous prices to the naive they target.
The Rich who do have that money to blow are not as naive, and certainly won’t need to thumb around with IM, because if they made their money there, and they’re already rich, they don’t need these guys to amplify whatever they are doing. They already know what works.
These guys are solely targeting the naive at these price points and with their methods they use in these scams. And a 30-day refund is NO JUSTIFICATION, because you don’t fully make things right when you lower the general trust of the public and contribute to the world being an ugly scamfest.

@Cosmic Connie,
The story of Mathias Meeting with Joe Vitale, (Mr Fire) or whatever
So I went to the the woods to meet with guru Vitale, I was looking for miracles and coaching… no wait, just miracles… no coaching.
And There he stood, outside a little hut made of wood, dressed as an ogre.(for reasons i do not know)
Guru-Joe is a spiritual master, the next minute he’s something else. Always trying to potray himself as something he’s not.
He welcomed me and immditately said something that stirred my curiosity,(Oh The Guru started speaking)
he said he was going to let me in on a secret(no shit)
The revelation would shock(mostly disturbe) his fans and should therebfore be kept a “secret”
He was going to drop the bomb…
Joe: “By now” most of you don’t know it, but there are really two Joe Vitale´s in this world…
Aaarrrgh!!!(Lots of divine anger And universal discontempemt)
Two Joe Joe’s?
He went on to say:
“One of them is an average Joe,(who sell weird hypno mumbo jumbo on the internet and who speaks at hoopooonooo seminars.) he’s got no skill and no integrity, just a rat. “That will be me.”
He looked at me aggresively:
But there’s a “missing key”
“A missing key?”
“That’s right, theres a missing key”
He explained it in this way:
“You see, The other Joe is much different from the original, you know, me.
“He doesn’t really exist, he is what i call a Spiritual entity(hint, made up person)
I Created him for the sole purpose of marketing, so that i could make a lot of money for me, the real joe”(flesh and blood Hawain Hypno-man)
“He’s like a strawman, A public persona…a fake-celebrity you might say.”
“My fans are not really worshipping me, they are worshipping my strawman, but i make all the money”(laughter)
He then went into details about this relationship between not cool average-joe and his make-believe spiritual other being
Joe: “It’s a beatiful relationship.” “It assists me in selling fake-hope, i also invent miracles btw” And then there’s my “hypnotic writing” … it gets the job done”
We talked for the rest of the night.
As it got late, he invited me to sleep in the hut, on a piece of wood. He prepared a meal, it was baked-beans, or magic baked beans as he called it.
We were hungry, so we ate the darn thing before Joe started talking again. He loves the sound of his own voice and he really likes to talk about his closest friends.
One of them being O’brien. O’brien is a musician and he likes to play guitar. But Joe thinks he takes this music-thing a little too far”
(referring to the Bp Oil Audio Clearing)
“it just doesn’t work”. I know it, but he still beliefs… can you believe it? he still beliefs… .(fake laughter)
“Intentions are for wimps my friend, intentions are for wimps, damn it, i want some of those oil-billions.
I could sense Joe The Guru Vitale was not in the mood for company no more.
And so we said goodbye
I learned a lot from Joe. About my self, the universe and how to take other people’s money.
He Even promised me a future ride in one of his rolls royce.
I now belief Joe is a good old man. He’s really nice, he’s humble and he just wants money.
So all in all, I had a fun trip to the woods. Me and Joe had some mushrooms too btw, joe told me not to say anything but heck… It’s Hypnotic Publicity

What is funny is that the guurs hate their cutstomers. Mikey hated the people and said all were dumb. They hate the people they con the people and they don’t trust each other either because they know they are all predators. Walker presented himself to some of the product launch manager translate customers he tried to groom into b team bit players for his control as above Mikey. As Mikey as the exreme bad boy junk seller and him as better and Mikey hates Walker too but Walker is as sleazy as any of them.
Look at Eben./ Do you really think that is a person you would want to hang out with? A dating gugur with no woman for a reason. Sandy? Would you want to have a beer with him.

My question: If Salty is truly wrong and merely blowing smoke (as MF purports) why hasn’t Mike Salami (aka MF) or any of the other so-called “wealthy” gurus started legal action months ago?
If Salty was wrong at the outset, they should have been all over him. And since they all make so much money (cough, cough), hiring a law firm shouldn’t be a financial strain. And since Salty’s case had no merit, then legal action should be swift, simple and not to costly.
Yet, none of that has happened. And the ‘Beave’ asks, “Golly gee, why not?”
Oh, and Mike Salami’s open letter to J.V.’s has zero to do with Salty or this blog. It is all merely coincidental since SD is nothing more than a pimple.

I sipped some bourboun thinking about the droid today big post and the mikey try to attack back a big sign of turning points in internet marketing world and syndicate.
I have a lot to say.
Ok these guys are not cutting edge. They think they are but they are playing internet games from four years ago. Internet is changing and the droid is part of that change they cannot control perceptions of them they cannot control the blog world and twitter and social media truth gets out.
500 sales out of a million is pitiful and this is why b team players never make money. They are tuahgt to obey and mimic the syndicate guru and think if they can make sales for the guru that they can get on the inside track if they make enough of them they are pretty much told that Jeff walker says this is how you get our attention in his b team maker course.
Thing is no one can do it because the conversion numbers so poor. There is not a single b team person that graduated into the snydicate 12 ever.
Think about that b team dreamer buying into the bizop.
Syndicate only has one trick masses of b team players sending them leads. That is the only thing they do. Without that they have nothing. Thye do not create traffic themselves. They spend no money on marketing traffic. Frank Kern releases courses on ppc and runs no ppc it is a joke google middle finger up his ass.
John Reese traffic secrets and only secret he has is his friends. Reese was once a smart man looked up to now he is just a syndicate pawn and a walking joke.
Ok, with that being onlt trick they are in danger and they know it. You listen to this and hear the anger and senssitivity Jenkins has about his repuation and “fuck it” the anger. The part you put up their is all Walker convincing Jenkins to go for the high prices because he wants them to stay priced high so it is all him talking him into buying that and dismissing the critics so he will feel good.
They have no innovation no creatitivty they are playing a trick from four years ago and internet is changing and will make them obsolete.
But they will do nothing to adapt or change because they only play one trick. They need the masses of b team and when b team no longer belives game is up. Then they will open up boiler rooms and work with crooks beyond the pale oh yeah already doing that.
This is their peak launches will do worse in two years game over. They keep riding down to it no longer works completely or they end up in FTC trouble which they should be already.
Sign of desperation is the mikey they feel they have to fight back and that will be interesting.
They loath their customers and email people you can hear that in the audio. They loath each other too. Walker told several product luanc manager b team creator program that Mikey not to be trusted becaue he will sell dirt. Mikey no like Walker they loath each other and Frank Kern has to be go between for them. Reese manic depressive who dissapears and Frank has to go find him for the others. They think he is weirdo. Ed Dale creepy. They all loath each other because they all know each is a predator no can trust. So they loath themselves on inside.
Would you want to go to a bar and drink with Sandy? With Eben dating guru with no woman? With Mikey or creep Ed?
If you are b team you are a sucker. You make no money and blame yourself when the system created by syndicate is not set up to make you money but only them.
Look at stompernet. They didn’t even pay those affiliates. Anyone promoting sandy kanibai shit is a loser. 500 in a million is 0.0005 conversion rate on a average b team list of 10,000 that is 5 sales and half refund you make 2.5 sales.

Isn’t that just a testament to all of the hype these guys hawk about “the power of copywriting”, when they say things like “we should be able to get 500 out of a million”
Yeah. More like power of copywriting to repel and make people puke when they see their tacky try-hard sales pitches.
Ok. Let’s take a principle from marketing that is true: The market matures and changes.
Ok. What happens now? When the “market” for info products is matured and newly conditioned to reject info products because these guys killed the reputation? When people are still skeptical even when they see a supposed social proof bonanza in front of them of people that supposedly say it’s great.
This sucks. It’s moronic to say that an info product is a scam. Even though most are, some guy might have some genuinely helpful knowledge or a method he devised, and wants to use an ebook as a medium with low barrier to entry.
But guys like these have single-handedly helped “mature this market” into a perception that all ebooks are worthless scams. Just like this same crowd of lame abusive marketers almost completely killed email if spam filters didn’t save the day (and they still aren’t perfect).

@Getout Scammers,
Ebooks are now being used by legit writers. B&N came out with the Nook and Amazon with the kindle.
The problem is that many people have used ebooks to make money in a dishonest way.
But now REAL writers who actually love writing and actually care about their customers & readers are now using it.
millions of dollars is being put into development by B&N and Amazon.
You can also publish your ebook with Barnes & noble for FREE… Zero costs and get exposure to MILLIONS of readers.

@mikefilsaimeinder, it’s not really 500 out of a million, because that “million” is *maybe* 200,000 people. At least 80% of them have long ceased to read the endless promotional emails that go out. That’s why he’s so desperate to get the whole “team” to mail all at once. 5-10x as many chances to get someone to pay attention. If they all pitch in, they’ll still only get the attention of less than 5% of that million. Therefore the machine needs fresh blood all the time, which comes from the “B team.” The Droid’s activities here threaten their blood supply more than anything.

SD – first off – amazing audio – got me all feeling Three Days of the Condor/The Conversation. Ethical schadenfreude indeed, or should that be fraudsterfreude.
Nice video skills as well. Cannot believe some of the stuff that’s coming out – inaresting times also re MF’s & FK blog posts – though MF’s stuff appears to have been written by a 12 year old girl.
Some pointless observations after having read your blog over the last couple of weeks.(Imnersive Droiding)
What is the obsession with Kool Aid comments? I’ve never drunk it (cyanided or otherwise) – does that make me sad or a loser?
There seems to be a direct relationship between the stupity of comments and their homophobic content. Sometimes it can feel like reading Ubertube comments that appear to be mostly written by 14 year old virgin excited at the prospect of semi public swearing. Mother’s basements optional.
Speaking of which what is the obsession with mother’s basements?
As a British person I also feel slighted at the continual teabagging references – mixing tea with gay sex practices is just not the sort of thing that’s done in polite society. Next you’ll be telling me there’s a Teabagging Party.
I will save my own sad story for later or perhaps never. Thanks for all you’re doing though. I will now head off to the green pastured hills to consider whether I prefer being a sheeple, a minion, a hater, a loser or some delightful combination of them all.

I came across your blog SD not too long ago and man do I wish I would’ve discovered it sooner.
This post and the other syndicate related post (http://saltydroid.info/the-internet-marketing-syndicate) have been music to my ears.
Sadly I fell into the trap of these d-bags…yes I was gullible to follow their advice but I jumped on board since everyone else seemed to be riding that train.
Ended up launching my own product at $497 to the IM community.
What a stupid idea.
Luckily my launch was a flop…now – something tells me it was a flop because I didn’t form my own scammy trade union (syndicate).
Now that I see Jeff Walker’s true colors I can’t stand the idea of ‘price fixing’ just to get into people’s wallets…talk about compromising integrity.
I am so GLAD I escaped this darkness in the IM community. And if it weren’t for Salty and this blog I know I’d still be subscribed to these d-bags.
I have now re-structured my business model and even though it probably means less income in the short run I feel like a HUGE burden has been lifted off my shoulders now that I have escaped these scam artists and mushroom smokers.
Now I know what the heck I’m doing and I know I’ll be able to sleep more sound at night.
Thank you Salty for leading me (and I’m sure many others) down the right path.

There is NO “learning” doing stand up comedy from a class – you watch good comedians that YOU find funny and observe WHY they make people laugh – These “stand up comedy classes” were talked last week on the Joe Rogan podcast (he is an accomplished stand up comedian) with guest Doug Stanhope and they both agreed it was a scam (this is the exact podcast – http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/9774114). They concluded that watching comedy AND practising on open-mike nights is the BEST way of doing it.

*****MESSAGE TO THE SYNDICATE******
This my last post on this blog post…
And I will say this… You guys are fucking DONE… Your fraud business will not make a fucking penny from now on. Salty Droid is getting A LOT MORE exposure than you will ever get…
And your reputation is gone. You guys have been officially served.
I suggest you start applying for some jobs. List your homes on the market and downsize. Sell your expensive cars and buy something more affordable. Even if you don’t have a mortgage, those property taxes are very expensive and maintaining those homes are expensive too. And even if you don’t have car payments, the gas, insurance and maintenance on those cars are quite expensive.
Go find a job! Because this post & video has killed all your credibility of which little you had anyway.
I also suggest you shut down all your websites, IF you are smart.
Bottom Line: You guys are done! It’s the end. This shit is so incriminating, you can expect that some government agency is probably monitoring this site for more evidence for prosecution and you can bet they are probably monitoring you as well.
If I was you. I would shut down all my websites, legally shutdown my legal entities, sell my house, my cars, cut up my credit cards, pay off any debt I owe and leave the state.
Change my name, delete my facebook and find a job as well as living in a normal house and driving a normal car. I might even leave the country, in fact that would probably be the only thing which can protect since staying in the US risks you guys getting arrested due to the amount of incriminating evidence.
But you guys well probably continue on like idiots even after your business is no longer profitable thanks to Salty Droid who exposed you clearly for the pieces of shit that you are. I bet the authorities will end it my raiding your offices and homes.

@SyndicateExposed,
The “syndicate” is now officially playing with fire.
It’s one thing to say they aren’t doing anything or holding anyone at gunpoint.
It’s another thing to admit that they are using very shady and abusive tactics, and it wouldn’t be the first time in history that the authorities targeted the group that is the pack leader in a very shady market just to set an example to everyone else of what not to do.
These 5 or 6 guys would be that example. There’s enough angry people that the authorities probably almost have a green light to do this kind of thing.
It’s happened to multiple people in other shady industries.

IhateThemToo Reply:
October 5th, 2010 at 8:37 pm
@Told-You-So,
Here you go…
Hey Possible Person That Can Give Me More Money,
I’m writing you today to answer a frequently asked
question we’ve received from many of our readers
over the last 12 months, specifically…
“Where’s Rich?”
You’ve probably noticed, too, that I have been
conspicuously absent from most of the major
product launches, for quite a while.
And you may have wondered why I haven’t written
another one of my game-changing special reports
for the general public in 2 years.
Well, let’s begin with something I need to share
with you. You see, I feel I owe you an apology.
Because I feel I have let you down.
Here’s how it happened, and what I’m going to do
about it.
It’s been more than 2 years now, since I decided I
wanted nothing to do with what has become the
“sleazy” world of Internet marketing.
The politics. The back-scratching. The pitch fests
void of clearly “actionable” ideas. The “good ole
boys club” … and everything that comes along
with playing “the guru game.”
I saw the writing on the wall 2 years ago. Which
I’m sure by now you have undoubtedly seen for
yourself.
So where have I been? Unplugged from the circus
that Internet marketing has become. To spend time
with my clients. Some of them high-level “big
business” clients. And spending a massive amount
of time researching, and getting clear on how to
proceed independently of all the bad stuff going
on in Internet marketing circles.
Including building a business I am very proud of
right now, that is helping thousands of people,
without my having to do the guru dance every 3
months…
And figuring out how you and I can move forward to
build REAL businesses in a sea of carnival barkers.
It’s actually a bit embarrassing, to realize that
even though I helped 90% of today’s Internet
marketing “gurus” rise to prominence and
prosperity, most of which are truly helping the
community and their markets…
…there is a portion of that 90% who have
approached what I see as an ethical line in
operating their businesses, and crossed it.
So it all comes down to this…
I now realize I have done you an injustice by
removing myself from Internet marketing. Only to
leave you to the wolves. And for this I hope you
will forgive me.
Rest assured, I clearly realize the critical error
I’ve made in carrying on my relationship with you.
And have already begun making amends, making
this right for you in a BIG way.
(And just in case you’re wondering, this message
is in no way connected to a product launch, a big
offer or an evil scheme to build my list.)
Over the next week or two, I’m here to re-welcome
you to the Strategic Profits family. A family I truly
appreciate.
You’ll hear more about this very important
announcement (that directly concerns you) on Friday.
And today, to help me be sure I am on the best
track to help you with your needs in today’s
environment… to again be your beacon of truth
and reason (without the smoke and mirrors you see
in almost every product launch that hits your inbox)…
I am asking for a favor from you. Simply, that you
help me help you to rise above the current
economic conditions, and the sad state of the
Internet marketing community.
Starting next week, I will be answering questions
from readers like you by email, on a weekly basis.
And to get the ball rolling, I need your input.
So if you’re still with me, visit this short
questionnaire I’ve set up for you:
Submit Your Question Here
You’ll be able to tell me where you are in your
business right now, along with your most pressing
challenges. The one’s that are keeping you up at
night.
When you’ve completed it, I have a special treat
for you. One that will show you what I’ve been
doing lately. What I’ve been thinking. A peek at
the “new Rich.”
It’s an interview like I’ve never done before.
With a business authority like you’ve never heard.
An unusual interview sure to rock your world. Like
you used to expect from me regularly.
And this is only the beginning. Because for you
and all of my loyal readers, I’m happy to say…
Baby, I’m back!
To higher profits,
Rich
P.S. And to really get the ball rolling, I have an
important assignment for you. Ignore at your own
risk.
I’ve recently updated the special report that
started it all… “The Internet Business Manifesto”
with a new beginning and end. Both will help
everyone who reads it get on top of their game
and stay there.
Download The Updated Manifesto Here
Whether you read The Manifesto four years ago,
last month… or never. Put this on your “to do”
list tonight. Especially if it’s been more than
six months.
One of the biggest secrets successful business
owners practice is “revisiting” the fundamentals
of business and marketing… on a regular basis.
Look, we all get busy. It’s easy to forget the basics
when you’re working on something new. But this is
the most important time TO review the basics.
When you do, you’ll immediately see what I mean.
Stray from the fundamentals, and you’re setting
yourself up for failure.
So make some time tonight, or right now. And give
yourself a much needed “tune up” that will give
you a boost like you’ve never imagined.

The video itself is incredibly entertaining and very revealing. Well done. Very, very, well done. Some parts are hilarious. You truly are gifted, Salty Droid.
There are approximately 340+ comments at the time of my posting. There are two things people can do if they have an interest in spreading the word about this blog. For many, this is their favorite soap opera. With good reason, too… it’s just VERY funny and entertaining and reveals a lot about what happens behind the scenes.
If you want to spread the word about this blog…
1) Create backlinks to your favorite blog post using your favorite guru’s name as the anchor text. That way, Google will associate the relevant blog posting with the guru’s name. Don’t do this with any malicious intent, do it because you genuinely believe this is a matter of public concern that would be relevant to someone seeking information about a particular public figure guru. If enough people do this, who knows… the blog post might rise in the rankings and show up as a top result. Then others can share in the entertainment and laughter. It’s all in good fun.
2) “Digg” your favorite blog post. If everyone who posts a comment would chip in one “vote” over at Digg, this blog would regularly be in the top news stories. That would bring in a fresh batch of new readers with interesting perspectives. What would people in other industries think of what happens in the Internet marketing industry?
BONUS:
If nothing else, create a backlink to this blog with the anchor text of “internet marketing”… it would be hilarious to see the Salty Droid be one of the top results for that keyword!
Oh, you know what? Ignore everything I just said. People are going to find this blog through word-of-mouth anyway. That’s how I found out about it.

You’re an idiot, beginning of story. Many people don’t accept a “statement” as truth without proof (rollfuckingeyes). BTW, just because most may not believe you, that doesn’t mean they don’t believe something is possible (rollfuckingeyes). Nobody asked for your financial situation, you were attempting to “prove a point”, but when you were asked for proof, you brought up this whole “i’m a secret capitalist”.
Top secret business blogs too (rollfuckingeyes)…Is that so no one can read your shit (rollfuckingeyes)…good idea.

@Dr Pepper, You said: I’m a capitalist, end of story.
But you lied, dickstain, and kept on.
I am still hoping the end of your story is a lot better than any of the other bits you have dribbled out here so far.
the Salty Droid hides, because he can. He is made out of magic, and has wicked cool powers like the devil, or Shatner. But he is mostly good, and only melts the souls of stupid dickstains like you.
But he is definitely invisible, and you are a big fucking idiot. No one cares about you. No one will.
You’re on his blog, stupid…now no one is on yours.

Looks like copywriter Ray Edwards is now shilling for Andy Jenkins. Here’s the email he sent out TODAY:
————————————————-
From: Ray Edwards
I run Product Launches. For a living.
My clients pay me a healthy fee to do that.
The most irritating part of my job?
Helping clients “Frankenstein” together all
the technology needed to run a launch.
Until now.
From now on, my #1 recommendation for any
launch I run will be this push-button system:
http ://www.tier23.com/track/go.php?c=kj
(That link is “safe” – no squeeze page or any
of that razzmatazz… just watch the video.)
Seriously. Watch the video.
http ://www.tier23.com/track/go.php?c=kj
Sincerely,
Ray Edwards
P.S. I wish you could sign up and get your
account now…but you can’t. But you’ll only
have to wait a few days. And you’re not going
to BELIEVE the price.
http ://www.tier23.com/track/go.php?c=kj
P.P.S. By the way, there is NO OPT-IN NEEDED
to watch this video. Hmmm. No sales pitch. No
squeeze. Different, isn’t it? :-)
P.P.P.S. (C’mon, I know it’s silly to have a
“PPPS” which is why I’m laughin’ right now…
c’mon, smile…) This is indeed my affiliate
link. Which means if you buy this
ridiculously under-priced thing when they
actually get around to selling it, I will get
a commission. ZOINKS!

@snowtiger, Have you even READ the other posts on this blog? Honestly. There’s a reason so many mainstream marketing blogs are regularly linking to these posts. There are plenty of facts and evidence contained herein.
Pretense and “persona” don’t make up for backroom dealings!
It’s mind boggling that you have all this in front of you, and STILL wrote such a rambling, apologistic comment ignoring reality.
You just want to be like one of them, and you are psychologically trying to help preserve the (sad) state of things until you “get there.” What you don’t realize is that you won’t get there, because they won’t let you…AND, things are going to change long before that could even be a remote possibility.

“Learn how business works?” Let me tell you something, cocky, know-nothing dumbass. I’ve owned a multi-million dollar real business with tangible physical merchandise, multiple warehouses, call center, et al (not some idiotic infocrap business). And I managed to do so without bullshit, excuses, or refund hassles to customers who I actually respected as human beings. That’s how REAL business works. I know more about real business than you ever will in your deluded lifetime, dipshit.
For a dumbass forum junkie with a lot to learn, you sure have a lot of nothing to say.

@snowtiger, No, I was being generous with you. Then you sounded like someone who’s deceiving himself in order to believe the dream/lie. From the rest of your comments, you sound like a troll. Sometimes people straddle the fence.
And– did I fail? At starting a fake IM business, sure. Because the model’s fake. NO GURU CAN PRODUCE THE FTC-REQUIRED MINIMUM of:
#1) “Get earnings claims in writing. If the business opportunity costs $500 or more, then the promoter must back up the earnings claim in a written document. It should include the earnings claim, as well as the number and percentage of recent clients who have earned at least as much as the promoter suggested. If it’s a work-at-home or other business opportunity that involves an investment of under $500, ask the promoter to put the earnings information in writing.”
#2) “Interview each previous purchaser in person, preferably where their business operates. The FTC requires business opportunity promoters to give potential purchasers the names, addresses and phone numbers of at least 10 previous purchasers who live the closest to the potential purchaser. Interviewing them helps reduce the risk of being misled by phony references.”
http://business.ftc.gov/documents/inv02-could-biz-opp-offers-be-out-your-coffers
Fortunately for me and you both, there’s more to life than guru lies and IM businesses. Getting skills in an actual INDUSTRY is always a good idea. IM is not an industry. PUBLISHING is an industry, a lot of the IM models are actually magazine publishing models (with the numbers fudged and hard work removed. Evidence? Newspapers like the NYTimes run the same ad services as the XFactor AdWords course or whatever. How have newspapers been doing lately?). Some of the others are EDUCATION & TRAINING and SERVICE models, like “Teaching Sells” or running a lead-gen service for local services. All require hard work, qualifications, experience, deep knowledge of a market and industry, and actual clients, not just “traffic”.
IM models are just weaseling around, looking for loopholes. It’s like douchebag Tim Ferris claiming he’s a kickboxing champion when he really just shoved people out of the ring and won by DQ, or antique SEO advice like keyword stuffing. Not the way to spend what little time you have on earth!
Hope you do better. Have fun with your trolling.

These people cannot handle the ridicule of being FOUND OUT – EXPOSED – SHOWN UP FOR WHO THEY ARE!
So much for THE SECRET of the marketing guru, huh, what a bunch of wankers.
After having worked for one of these animals and walked away it makes me sick to the stomach to hear again just how blatantly manipulative and greedy these guys are. The fact that one (if not all of them) show their true colors by getting very angry for being exposed shows what their intentions were in the first instance. These people are to be despised, they are the parasites of our society and have done an incredible amount of emotional and financial damage. Any tiny bit of good information that they are attempting to sell —– IS FREE ON THE INTERNET —– oh surprises. If you still feel you need a high from attending one of their pathetic workshops or buying their rebadged, repackaged, regurgitated material, then maybe its time to have a good hard look at yourself to see whats really going wrong. Remember these guys will tell you there is something wrong even if there isnt. Its the trade mark start to every workshop. Tell everyone whats wrong with them and tell them that you used the material to make it all right then sell sell sell like hell hell hell. Most people dont even know they’ve been done over until its too late and god almighty … try to get a refund from any of these guys. They’ve covered every shifty loophole in the business to take your money and keep it. Believe me I know, remember I used to work for one of them……….

Joe Vitale, Mr Fire and the author of way too many books too list here doesn’t like this forum…
So he’s sending an intention to the universe to alter the subconscious mind of Salty Droid but fails to do so as his super secret ninja hypnotic voodo doesnt work on robots.
He gets depressed and calls Pat cat o brian and together they merge their bodies on the holy Hawaian Island…
After this intensely sexual experience joe goes to bed(naked) and Patty Boy plays a beatfiul song for him.
In the meantime Tony Robbins has bought a 30 dollar clickbank product called “Secrets of remote-viewing” He meet with speed learning expert Brian Tracy, a minute and a handjob later he has not only mastered, but integrated a complete new skill.
Tony: “Im The Master of Mastery and I can learn anything” “Thats right” says Brain
Tont takes immediate action and succesfully remote-wiev the naked hawaian ritual from his private Island. He cries and say that is the most touching thing he’s ever seen.
Something about Joe and patty has awakened the giant within him and he starts jerking off.

Ross… you have a lot of guts to come back here after I watched that fire video.
A women is frightened out of her skull and you try to pick her up. Why not just hold a gun to her head and see how that works. And I’ve watched a few more of your “gems” (and I’m being kind) and I don’t see your magic. Maybe I’m just blind and deaf (or just skeptical).
The pickup industry is 100 times worse than the internet marketing industry (and the IM industry is a cesspool of no-talent criminals). And if these guys are stealing their stuff from you, they should get arrested for stupidity.
And you claim that Salty gives you a clean bill of health? Well, he also gives Michel Fortin a clean bill of health (who continues to promote super sleaze Armand Morin)… continues to give Ken McCarthy a clean bill of health (who promoted all of the douchebags featured on this blog including Andy Jenkins and Brad Fallon)… and hasn’t busted Dan Kennedy / Bill Glazer as a fraud (which every one of these IM gooroos worship as their god).
So if you think you’re clean because the droid gives you a pass, you might want to check your skivvies for skid marks. Because I smell your shit 3,000 miles east. And it doesn’t smell good old man.
Muchly debated. What do you think?

(the new mike). In reference to your other post “radio stations and record companies collude with each other all the time”…. or words of that sort. Did you ever hear of the payola scandal in the 50′s and early 60′s where radio stations and DJ’s were accepting kickbacks to push records. Everybody did it until “PEOPLE WENT TO JAIL”
If two people collaborate on a product and are open about it no issue, but if separate business entities price fix while maintaining the fiction of being competitors that is criminal fraud. If the government is in a really bad mood they could invoke the RICO statue depending on the fact pattern presented.

@DontEatYellowSnowFlakes, SD you are a lawyer, can you clarify what constitutes a criminal fraudulant act? it is my understanding that the FTC statute for fraud is identical to the criminal statute. There is only one word that makes the difference: “intent”
The long paragraph defining fraud reads identical in both statutes. Only that one word makes it criminal. If a person intended, pre-meditated the act.
So, there is a definition of “criminal” versus “civil” statute.
If SD wants to clarify, he is the lawyer, I am just a dude who knows.

Listen to me … look into my eyes. Are you looking? You’re sucked into a con. It’s going to ruin your life … I don’t want that to happen to you.
You hear Jeff Walker laughing in that video? He’s laughing at you. He’s laughing because you’re suffering at his hand … cause his fat life is funded with your tears … and your delusions.
You can call me hater :: I’m used to it. But I don’t hate you … I want you to be free.
Be free little kitty … be free.
