If you get an email from [email protected] its not me!!!
 

Hey everyone, just letting you know that some piece of shit is emailing a lot of people from here pretending to be me offering a blog manual in PDF format for $80.

THIS IS NOT ME AND I WOULD NEVER SEND SHITTY EMAILS PANDERING WHEN IM GIVING IT OUT FOR FREE!!!!

If you have given money to him, let me know.

so where can i find this "a blog manual in PDF format " ?

Yes but you called me 'Snooky' in your email and only Colmike7 would know my lovers call me that, so.....:D

Maybe you just look like a Snookie?.. :winkwink:

(Did I really?)

It doesn't exist unless I write one..

Nobody would ever admit being dumb enough to pay $80 for a "blog manual PDF". Even if it was real.

lol, I was thinking that too, but just in case.

Haha! No man, just fucking with you. :)

I didn't get an email from you but I do get weird emails sometimes from people I know. I just assume their account was hacked.

Cool :)

This guy is trying to sound a lot like me, though..:

"Hello NAME, I can quick explain you the method here, but you will need some basic knowledge about PHP and MySql. The method is pretty simple but long to explain. If that's fine for you, let me know. Otherwise, I can send you a PDF of 15 pages long explaining in detail the method. As you understand I can send you this one for a small fee, it took me very long to write. But you will be able to make 200 new blogs per day. I'm currently cashing 15K per month with this method. I can send you this PDF for $80 paypal/paxum.

Thanks,
Jack."


"As you understand I can send you this one for a small fee, it took me very long to write."

15 pages of how to blog is NOT hard to write and does not take along time..

Any why the fuck would it be signed Jack? I know why, but it still doesn't make sense and no one knows me as Jack...

From the terrible English it looks like an East European, or some other shithole dweller, where $80 is about 10 years' rent.

And of course if you're pulling in $15k/month with something the first thing you do is try to tell as many people as possible for an extra $80.

Theres a huge market for products by people making unbelievable earning claims then selling the method cheap.

Yeah, but 80 isn't really cheap for a beginner-intermediate blogger looking to learn some things. If I sold what I'm writing now, I'd do it for 10-20 to get more sales and 1 sale for them pays for it.

Of course... :Oh crap

You'd be surprised in non-adult we have several clients selling online ebooks & courses (about 15-20 pages max or a 5-10 minute video) and they are charging crazy amounts for them.

One guy we build a site for to deal with social media marketing, it had maybe 10 pages plus 3 or 4 videos of around 5 minutes each.

Guess how much he sells his 'course' to for non-adult business clients?

Almost $1000... The fucked up thing, these people he touts it to actually buy it.

We had to get access to his processing account a few months back and just half way through the month he'd sold almost 10k worth of his course.

I guess the adage that people will buy anything online is true, if its promoted effectively enough to them.

We also have several self help ebooks of our own, I am one of the first to admit they really don't have much to them content wise, but surfers eat this shit up at $30-$80 a month AND they rebill!

Our weight loss ebook made its first sale within an hour of us linking it up on AdWords... She is still a currently active and rebilling member @ $40 a month for the last 12 months...

Looks like the guy forgot to change the name "Jack" instead of "Mike" Lol, and another thing is "it took me very long to write" :helpme

Mike check your mail :winkwink:

Yeah, there's a reason for him using Jack (Hoff), and I don't fucking know how he knows one of my aliases.. Hard to explain...

Edit: Turns out he found that name because I was stupid with a twitter account.. :( lol

Obviously you know who it is or you wouldn't be asking. :2 cents:

Why the fuck would someone go through all that effort.
On top of that, you're making claims this mystery apparition is stalking your twitter?
:1orglaugh

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, but being hopeful to find out who it is..
Fucking Google :(

Hey !
I never got the pdf!
wtf bro can you either send it or return my $80:2 cents:

Email me with the Paxum or Paypal that you paid and I'll take care of it :winkwink:

on the other hand, now you created a market for this blog pdf...your like the Steve Jobs of gFy:1orglaugh

lol, true. I didn't even make my own thread for it, either.. :winkwink:

It's not unheard of that a scammer would try something like this here. I don't know about the Twitter thing. It could be a coincidence.

If you're lucky and the scammer is an idiot maybe the headers will reveal something? Does live.com show IPs or do they block them as Gmail does?

what is it you rebill for? As in, what is the customer expecting/getting for a monthly subscription?

I never got any of the emails, just forwarded, and it didn't show any IP. Would contacting Live help?

Just got the IP, this is going to be fun. :winkwink:

Who's in Washington? (Redmond..)

That might just be Microsoft's server. I think they are headquartered there.

Shit :(
I'll keep looking then and contact Live.

It's quite obviously Bill Gates.

Must be. I want to trade 'manuals' with him..

How do you thing he got his billions?

Opportunists beget opportunists, I'm sure you'll get a handful of fraudsters claiming they paid the $80 to sulk info (maybe even more than you'd usually give) out of you.

True, but I'm going to verify purchases, if any, before sending anything.

Just get his paypal info and send him 1cent ...it sounds like Eric ..he's doing the rounds on the for sales board atm ...is a post with him trying to sell some plugin ...I caught him out ...as he host all his sites in aphost or somthing its called ...

I might, but don't know if he's even trying anymore since one of the emails that I read was from March..

Who's Eric. Not GFY Eric I'm guessing.

bump for this :)

Bump, because I want to know, too. :upsidedow

They get access to the site each month, that's it, period.

Same information that was in the members area when they joined.

Thanks for replying :thumbsup

ok I'm a bit confused - you said it was for an ebook though? How does that work, they join the monthly recurring site and the ebook is online in the 'members area' rather than as a direct downloadable pdf, or?

Eric Gauthier

Exactly.

Think of it like one of the old SicCash or PlatinumBucks members area's the content never changed, but the member still got billed each month until they cancelled or the card expired.

Custom CMS just to mange text in the members area and the 'last' page is referral links to various affiliate programs relating to whatever niche the 'ebook' is about :)

I never saw those MA's, but cool, that gives me an insight to how to rebill for an ebook (I guess info would be the term to use) - thanks, much appreciated :thumbsup

No probs.

Give CCBill or ECSuite a go for the billing processor, they're actually pretty decent :)

If its a mainstream product you can also use Paypal for recurring billing although their system can be funky at times.

yeah mainstream so it'll be paypal :thumbsup

Like I said they can be funky, we used Paypal for a while but we actually got more payments returned to the customer than using CCBill/ECSuite.

Unfortunately Paypal typically sides with the customer for stuff like this (one of their reps told me this).

:1orglaugh

you can't make this shit up bro i was lmao'innn on the basement floor br0

Was it you? I know where you live and will have a letter from my lawyer if it was. Tell your mom she'll need to save up to pay your legal fees. :2 cents:

Dude you sound like the biggest fucking baby in the world is what im pointing out i know were you live too want me to post your street view?

It fucks up my business when people go around pretending to be me scamming them and this isn't the only time it's happened and I think it's either Chris Butler or VB, so fuck off. :321GFY

I also just moved into a new house with no record of it online, so have fun with Google.

Really? what part of ohio did you move to?:1orglaugh
