Ditch Maverick Money Makers--SCAM!

Postby gowriter on Wed Jul 01, 2009 4:41 pm

Folks, I quit promoting Maverick Money Makers. It also turned out to be a scam. This scam was the best one, yet.

I was a member for about 5 months, and learned a lot of little tricks, but when I implemented them I have either gotten my account suspended, the methods didn't work, some things on the sales page were missing on the inside.

His upsold CPA project is a naughty yet crafty way to fake a job offer for people who are looking for a job, fake an application process, then fake a rejection of the job, all so that you get the unsuspecting customers to put their name into an online conferencing/call center software to get paid $100 per lead.

The so-called "Mack Michaels" has apparently done something similar as a guy named Chris Lumb for former Incomegreed.com.

I'll have to admit that Mack made his program look professional. He's soft spoken. He's got these videos that he personally guides you through and demos, but many of those methods are either outdated or downright don't work. I've wasted a lot of time with them, but I pressed because I figured that I was doing something wrong, and I just had to keep pressing.

No, this one is a doozy. He is the ultimate conman, Twitter page and all, plus a customer service call center.

Some of the the techniques are useful such as learning how to domain forward with Go Daddy URL masking, but others just don't work period. So technically, you the customer, are the Guinea Pig for his methods. You're paying $97/month to be his experiment versus being the ultimate guru that he says he is and teaching you methods that have been working forever.

To quote the late Michael Jackson, this one is a smooth criminal. I would recommend you stay far away.

Check out this You Tube video about him. At first I thought this lady was just being a hater and just trying to push her products, but as the video went a long, I started thinking about all the strange bits of behavior that seemed out of place.

As always, judge for yourself.

Here's the video I'm talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fv-KHY0sQM

Yes, Maverick Money Makers teaches some pretty shady tactics, including spamming forums.

Stay far, far away from this one indeed.

Shadiness isn't the way to go, and teaching it certainly isn't either.

There are better systems out there, jut dig for them but most of all work hard.

Good luck.

I agree, the program itself looked very professional, however when you take a deeper look into it that's when its true colors come up. When I was looking into promoting this product I discover that its creator use to have another product similar to it, but when people caught up to the scam he simply changed the name, close the other program and started Maverick Money Makers.

Another interesting fact to notice is this. He claims he has been making money online for years with Maverick Money Makers ever since he put it up online, yet the date the website was actually registered and became live does not match at all. I don't know, find all of this out just gave me a bad feeling about this program and I'm glad I stayed far, far away from it.

I tried to view the video but it has been removed from youtube. It is because of guys like this that i have had a couple interested people afraid of submitting an application. We all have to work harder because of scam artists like this. Thank you for your post and putting the information out there.

I must say that I also tried it, and gave it back to Clickbank as it was too confusing for me when I started with IM. Lucky that I did! Thanks for sharing it :D

Thanks for the warning. I have heard of this program many times and have often wondered whether it might be worth trying out - but this has made up my mind!

Cheers

Yes and thank you for warning others,

I ran across this some time ago and seen if right off. LOL

Of course my clue was I was researching some things and found MMM on a definite scam site advertising MMMs and other scams.

It's people like that that gives NM a bad name too bad.

Way to go giving others a heads up.

Cheers,
Zac

I'm tired of all these big names taking advantage of people that are desprate from money. There are plenty of real people that are willing to teach you things that actually work. They are just so hard to find. I'm am doing my best to and more bring awareness to them. My website it full of people not affiliates.

Hi,

I think I'm the lady you're talking about with the video. I posted it to my own site cuz the Maverick Money Makers goons got it banned from Youtube (& threatened to ban any other video I put up on YT about it). It had the most views behind one of "Mack's" own. They didn't like people telling the truth. It hurt their ability to continue the scam & get paid. If anyone wants to see it, they can go to my site.

Thanks for the information on this one - I was kind of on the fence about promoting MMM, but now, I definately will not!

Yeah, I looked at this myself and backed away straight away. Definately steer clear of this one.

Luckily, I've found a business partner local to me who has a team of IM experts and I am working 1-to-1 with these guys on my own stuff and JVs from this point onwards.

At least this will help me to avoid schemes and scams such as this :D
