The Truth About Gnomes & Dogs

Author == 29 November 2010 64 Comments

If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

Says Jesus … maybe you’ve heard of him.

The J-man’s version of the truth is about putting your neighbor :: your brother :: your wife :: the widows and orphans :: the poor and needy :: the hopeless and the lost :: the children :: and the pimps and the hos … all BEFORE yourself.  Your-own-damn-self ranks low on Jesus’ pyramid of stuff to give a crap about {as does gettin’ them big monies} … look it up.

Trouble is :: most people who claim to have {or be} “The Truth” are just stinky turds. The truth is that the truth is complicated :: and you can’t buy the resell rights.

In 2008 “stealth marketer” :: and mega motherfucking asshole :: John Paul Raygoza had the ignorant audacity to release a frauduct called “The Truth” as a way to generate leads for his heartless bloodsucking operations.  Raygoza’s version of the truth is all about instant can’t fail easy multi-millions … and you can too!

aka …. a lie

“To those of faith I say, let those who are without sin cast the first stone. (That one means nothing to someone that is not a person of faith.)”

Says idiot garden gnome Mike Filsaime in his pointless stone throwing rant about somebody named Jason Jones.

Hmmm … well I didn’t know that The Gnome was a person of faith … I thought he was just a clueless little dickhole.  This changes everything! Starting now :: and into the future :: I shall defer to his superior “faith-based” biblical interpretations.

Like …

–> “casting stones” = calling out fraud/harm

–> “the truth” = John Paul Raygoza

Subject: can the truth REALLY set you free?

Hey {name}

I recently met a stealth marketer by
the name of John Paul Raygoza
who has made over $4 Million in just
365 days using a formula that he reveals at:

http://www.thetruthdvdseries.com {link changed by fake robots}

He decided to share his 7 Figure Blueprint
with his best customers at a secret workshop
and got it all on a 6 DVD Set called…

“The Truth DVD Series – Million Dollar Marketing Secrets Revealed”

Here’s just a snippet of what he’s about to reveal to you:

- How he started a company that made $100,000
in it’s first month working out of my apartment…

- how you too can start an overnight business and
start making $50,000 your first month, using this
elite strategy almost nobody is using (except for the insiders)…

- Secret revenue generating tools that you NEVER hear
about in ebooks, that boost your profits through the
roof virtually overnight, while exposing all the keywords
your competitors are using!

- REAL Web 2.0 secrets revealed by 2 M L M juggernauts
who have brought in over $1.4 Million online with an
advertising budget of ZERO  dollars

- How to take your failing Google campaigns and start
making $5,000 a day from them with a sneaky backend
tactic that generates a guaranteed $1,000 the first day you use it!

- PLUS a ton more – there’s really TOO MUCH to list in this message!

He doesn’t leave any stones unturned in this DVD course.

Go see for yourself before he sells out his entire inventory:

Thanks,

Mike Filsaime

Hallelujah :: Amen.

And they lived happily ever after {or not}.

    Hmmm… John Paul Raygoza, who rents a shitty apartment at 1050 South Flower Street in Los Angeles…. just 3 blocks away from his shitbox scam-center Push Traffic.

    Hey – John Paul Raygoza… are you still walking to work? That’ll make it real easy to “talk” to you. And by “talk” I mean ask questions. And by “ask questions” I mean with a TV camera and mic… we love stories about scammers who take advantage of the sick and elderly. So does our attorney general, I hear – especially since he’s going to be the new governor.

    And the new attorney general has a soft spot in her heart for scammers. And by “soft spot” I mean hard-on.

    Good luck… and god speed… If you’re lucky your new view of Staples Center will be from here:

    If you’re not lucky you might end up in Fresno. I hear they like pretty boys there. And by “like” I mean don’t bend over for the soap.

    *Puke!*Puke!*Puke!* (and then I started getting really nauseated)

    Bullet point from the sales letter:
    “John Raygoza – reveals sales secrets that generate him an astonishing $4,000,000 a year.”

    Would that be using the boiler rooms and draining his customers credit cards for every last cent? BTW, anyone know the quote tags that can be used in the comments?

    This testimonial broke my heart (the last sentence especially):

    “This was my first seminar and I feel like a complete newbie, and I am, but I’m able to fully understand the massive information that you have provided me with here at this workshop.

    The Push Traffic crew has been amazing to me and I’m happy to be part of the community. Everyone here has just been wonderful. Tremendous networking opportunities and we had a really good show.

    With the information I’ve gotten from the Push Traffic community I’m sure I’ll stop being poor and and actually be able to have some money for my retirement.

    Thank you.

    - Deanna Profit, Alaska”

    If anyone knows this lady, point her to this blog. I couldn’t find her on Facebook or pipl.com. :(

    Raygoza seems to have no fear of the FTC. He makes these blatantly inflated (non-existent?) income claims with no repercussions. Ugh. No, I get it, he is small potatoes in the grand scheme of things, but still.

    @SD, Read between the lines, and you’ll see that this lady has wasted money she doesn’t have, to learn nothing of value.

    What’s worse is that she believes she needs to spend more money on these ‘seminars’ basic skills (that she could have learned for free online), and will most probably blame herself when the ‘tactics’ she’s learned don’t result in the promised riches.

    And sadly, they’re getting her to make a video testimonial for something that hasn’t even worked for her yet, to dupe other seniors into spending their pensions on their worthless crap.

    Some stuff DOES work Reply:

    @darkpaladin,

    There is ONE guy on that list who sold a $47 ebook.
    The sales letter was a pile of disgusting hype but it came recommended by someone who sold me decent info before.

    Bought the ebook, put in some WORK. Made $10,000+ promoting things like satellite tv subscriptions etc

    Then he turned his list into a new age type stuff self “improvement” pitch fest. UNSUBSCRIBED

    Another guy on the list above continuously provides free updates to previous customers and has a few private forums where you can learn some real useful stuff.

    Yet another guy on the list above I have no trouble trusting when it comes to internet advice (technical or otherwise).

    There is also a guy on the list who I would not buy from BUT he provides some good info for FREE on his blog (IF you know how to read it)

    Some guys on that list are part of the reason never to buy software from internet marketers….

    Some guys on that list I have never heard off.

    The rest is of the category of RUN FOR THE HILLS for reasons described all over salty’s blog

    Not mentioning any names because I do not want to promote anybody here nor do I want to be an “apologist”

    There are also some names MISSING on that list. Like Mr. Frauduct Launch Formula and the perpetual traffic accident etc

    One of those guys is Ryan Lee. He switched his subscribers over to a new system and double charged them one month for his inner circle membership that teaches how to do continuity stuff, then a few months later reposted one of his Inner-Circle reports/video’s because he was too lazy to make another one for that month. I doubt any of his subscribers noticed.

    That’s why he call himself a stealth-marketer, he’s someone who doesn’t have the ideas to pull it off legally, so like many failed get-rich quick failures he’s searching elsewhere, seeking comfort in the criminal shipwreck company of the syndicate. And in this case, teaming up with the gnome.

    @Rafael Marquez, I was wondering about that as well. Either:

    or..

    This gives us a great example of Filshame’s ‘due diligence’. You might remember his sermon not so long ago, where he decried The Satanic Jason Jones, Hater Of All Things And Bathed In The Blood Of Innocents (to give him his full title). He went on impress us with his ethical credentials, promised to look carefully at JV products and not to work with dishonest merchants. All very admirable. Let’s see how it works in action.

    1) Read sales pitch
    2) Highlight and copy.
    3) Paste.
    4) Change instances of ‘my’ for ‘his’
    5) Fuck up even this simple task, but send the message anyway.
    6) Next morning, begin from point 1 again.

    Here’s another example of a setup for a boiler room flogging from Josh Cantwell, real estate frauduct maker extraordinaire. The psychological bullshit makes me sick, so I’m going to take a dump on his survey below. Maybe a few of you could join me, I might list the numbers for a couple of goonrus just for fun:

    —Begin Boiler Room Setup Email——>
    This is important and IF you’re the right person I wouldn’t want you to be left out.

    Because of an unexpected overwhelming response I’m closing this down
    sooner than I had originally planned.

    We won’t be taking applications for much longer so this is your last chance at your
    one-on-one interview.

    (I sent this Saturday over the holiday weekend so you may have missed it.)

    I need your help.

    My business coaching team and I are looking for a handful of quality people
    to work with on a direct and personal basis.

    This is a unique expereince that provides a very intimate level of
    hands-on attention to help you take your business to the next level.

    I must warn you, this is A-player type stuff and 97% of people reading this
    message do not qualify.

    But if you’re in the 3% that match my criteria I want to make 2011 your
    best year yet.

    Here’s the deal…

    We are conducting a very limited number of one-on-one interviews
    to find stand out candidates for a new pilot “challenge” program I am
    launching in the coming weeks.

    I want to see if you’re a perfect match for this new program that makes sure
    you achieve your goals in the New Year and beyond.

    At the link below you’ll find a short application. If you’re SERIOUS about
    your real estate business and want a game plan for taking advantage of the
    massive opportunity waiting for the “armed and ready” investor
    I want to hear from you.

    Complete the application here:
    http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/aplayersonly

    If you match the qualities I’m looking for in my “inner circle” then we will
    set up a one-on-one interview and strategy session to identify your goals and
    see if you’re fit to be a participant.

    If all goes well, we will share with you the details of this exciting new program,
    exactly what my personal game plan is for 2011, and it’s even possible we may
    decided to work with you on an ongoing basis to guarantee your success.

    However, you MUST meet the below criteria:

    1. You must be “coachable” and willing to learn.
    2. You must be an action taker and be able to prove it.
    3. You must have some resources available (Both TIME and financial) to act on
    deals and opportunities as soon as they present themselves.
    4. You must have the positive mental attitude of a CHAMPION.
    *This is the most important qualification – no whiners/complainers allowed.
    I only want to work with “do whatever it takes people”!

    If you fit the “A-Player Profile” please complete the application at the link below.

    You must act fast. We only have a limited number of spots available in the “challenge”
    and I will be launching this new pilot program in the coming weeks.

    Iím only looking for those who take action and can prove my new strategies work in
    today’s market place. I’m looking for people who would make excellent success stories.
    (You MUST be comfortable sharing your success story with others.)

    If I feel you’re the right person we will contact you to review your application one-on-one.
    (Be sure to be as candid as possible, we will personally review each application in detail.)

    Here is the link to the application:
    http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/aplayersonly

    Best,
    Josh

    P.S. 2011 will be a great year for real estate investors. Fortunes will be made for
    those who know how, where and when to act. If you are the right candidate
    I will share with you my game plan for 2011, and we will hold your hand to guide you
    to success. This will transform your life.

    Again, here is the link to the application:
    http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/aplayersonly

    P.P.S. Don’t delay. This message is going out to a large number of potential applicants
    and my team and I can only reasonably handle a small number of interviews.
    (We will be VERY selective.) It’s first come, first served and the program starts soon.

    Chip Reply:

    @Recipe Books, The reason the ‘other’ ebooks sell so dismally few is because, frankly, most of them are garbage, rehash, or cover topics (like recipes) that have huge amounts of adequate free info already available online.

    They also tend to pale in comparison to more reasonably priced conventional books, the latter of which must actually deliver, or suffer the consequences in the reviews on sites such as Amazon.

    Clickbank is no doubt well aware of where their bread is buttered…and it’s the “fantasy category” of bizop ebooks.

    In other words, utter horse shit, sold in an intentional vacuum environment made up of a wall of shills, all using verbal confetti and streamers to extract money from people who make the mistake of tuning in to the delusion channel.

    Recipe Books Reply:

    @Chip, actually had a $14.95 raw food recipe book in mind as well as an ebook about natural cleaning products which costs about $9.95. Can’t see what is wrong with selling those in pdf format as an ebook. I certainly had no complaints about the ones I bought.

    The free info argument would go against conventional books as well as ebooks on clickbank.

    For the rest of it, I could not agree more. LOTS of bizflops sold with disgusting hype and lies on clickbank

    Mike Geary’s Truthaboutabs is one of the top selling CB ebooks, and it’s pretty good. Basically, his method to 6-pack abs is to lift weights hard, eat reasonably and lay off the long-slow cardio. Basically HIT or HIIT, but with more emphasis on weights. For $40, it’s worth it, especially compared to the more expensive and annoying P90X infomercial guy.

    So the TRUTH finally comes out, eh? John started out his scamming career in the gnome’s apartment? Some day history will see Filsaime as the father of modern online scamming. Not because he invented it, but because of the number of people he introduced to it.

    Mike Filsaime is a good copywriter, he knows how to tap the keyboard buttons and have weird hyped up salespages appear out of thin air. And he can do it without a conscience.

    Don’t be too harsh on him. Gnomes has feelings too. You know, when a check shows up in his mailbox with those fraudulent cash, that’s a real gnome-orgasmus right there! The closest a gnome gets to real emotions.

    Sorry I’m so late to this party. I have some catching up to do.

    I’ve always gotten a kick out of that “cast the first stone” admonition when it is used against critics. I’ve had more than one righteous soul use it on me. Even if I were a person of faith, though, it would be moot, because I am almost never the one to cast the first stone at my snargets. So I think I’m covered either way.

    Good work here, Salty, as usual.

    Sorry to disappoint you Dad.

    I know how you use me as a proxy for all your hopes and dreams … that must be why you’re using a proxy to comment on my site.

    You follow that logic?

    Please sign back into your proxy and fake some more concern … it makes me feel loved … kinda like hugs.

    Earlier, I thought that Filsaime had too little verve to be a successful con-man…
    My only contact with Filsaime was via his marketing front-man, one Adam Kaye. (can supply a poor photo, if useful) My brief subscription to Filsaime’s newsletter – marketingdotcom, was brought to an end after I got stung by Raygoza’s scam-house, Pushtraffic, in 2009… (already blogged around here on the subject; aussievictim or something similar) The point is; that Raygoza stole so much from my account, I had to haul in all available spending to cope with the damage.
    If Filsaime is in bed with Raygoza, then I hope he gets venereal disease.
    The only thing I can say about Filsaime is that he refunded my money for the cancelled sub. But if Filsaime turns out to be a promoter of Raygoza, then I wish he had refunded me a lot more than the hundred bucks.
    Nevertheless, I retain extremely poor opinions of Raygoza’s promoters, including Filsaime. If Filsaime wants a reputation, he had better start back-peddling SOON.
    Filsaime, if he really wants to come clean MUST publicly disown Raygoza, as well as state that he is cooperating with the LAPD investigations. Filsaime may already have all the necessary evidence we need to nail the bastard.
    Filsaime must admit his stupidity (or worse) before I can ever take him seriously again. I’m waiting, Mike!

    Filsaime’s garbage aside, Buying from Raygoza,I made one big mistake: I never allowed for the gullibility and fecklessness of the credit card banks – Visa. Visa is an accomplice to crime; their complicity somehow needs to be brought to the attention of the authorities, but which authority? Will the FTC lift itself out of its torpor to investigate Visa? Decisions at Visa Inc. are made in secret sessions. Their cryptic replies are not even signed. How do we know someone inside Visa did not take a pay-off from King Rat to dismiss my chargeback claims? How can I even get Visa to answer my letters?

    I fear Americans’ faith in the FTC is unjustified. If the Popes of the past sold indulgences, do not be surprised if the FTC’s moles can be bought off. My comment is not flippant; Raygoza once boasted to another victim (who passed on the account) that the FTC is “fine with Pushtraffic” because a “friend inside” told him so. Hmmm.

    Keep up the good work, SD. This post should be permanent.It must be made more widely known that JOHN PAUL RAYGOZA IS BAD.

    Our mutual acquaintance, JP Raygoza, is currently living at the LA Sheriff’s quarters, cheerily called the Twin Towers. Whether the truth will set him free is open to question. BTW, the booking number is 2720621. Name is John Paul Raygoza, date of birth 11/3/80, weight 210, height 511.
    arrest date: 04/27/2011.
    Charge level: Felony (must have done something?)
    bail $455000, yet to be booked, still due, it seems, or maybe the accommodation is better than home, as he is still living at the towers.
    By the time this gets read, the initial court hearing will have taken place.

    Look up LA County Sheriff Department, Inmate Information Center.
    information current as at 5/6/11.

    What now for JPR? An Adwords campaign?
    Whatever the trial outcome, this has to be the beginning of the end of the infamous career of JPR. All the King’s horse-shit and all the King’s con-men will never put Humpty together again.
    Now for the other swindle-louse, Attorney A. Weitz.

    I was another one caught in JPR’s trap. A lesson learned for sure. I was just startign out with IM / affilaite marketing and had actually starting making a little bit of money through one of his mastermid courses and he called me up to ask what I was doing because it was working and tried to steal my adwords conversion data. He ended up shutting it down a week later and he kind of disappeared. It’s kind of funny he ended up in jail. That’s that karma coming back around!

    I’m yet another example of a “mature” idiot who got bilked out of so much money by John Paul Raygoza that I’m very unsure of my retirement. I’m still trying to get an online business going, but it has been a struggle, especially since I’ve had to do it all on a shoestring since JPR wiped out my retirement funds. He is truly a despicable person who has no qualms about taking the last dime from an elderly woman. Still, I can’t blame anyone but myself, though. I really should have known better and done my homework better before believing his filthy line of shit.

    @ darkpaladin – Thanks for the list. Some of those names were on my DO NOT TOUCH WITH A TEN FOOT POLE LIST, but there were others I am not familiar with and thanks to you, never will be!

    “Still, I can’t blame anyone but myself, though.”

    I can think of some others to go about blaming. “Research” isn’t so easy as it might seem when they have so many disinformation-affiliate-buddies pumping up the Google site-crops for any research word you might think up.
