success of the project depended on getting new 'investors', which he did diligently in the beginning. the first guys that got in did pretty well and their sites sold fast to the next tier of investors. the problem is that he stopped building the pyramid - stopped getting new investors - and the money train ran out of fuel.

i understood the structure and path to revenue from the beginning. the part that wasn't explained was the fact that he would totally drop the project and become unresponsive.

as i said, its little money and i dont care about the loss. im just getting this on record for future searches on this guy. gfy's only value is being a public record for the industry..

Are you fucking serious? This whole scheme and info domains didn't ring the bell?
And you've been doing on-line biz for how long?
