Hey, You know probably like a lot of you, I'm on many big IMers lists. So I constantly get the same email from them, when a new product releases. I don't mind it, I signed up on their lists for something, and most of the products I get are of value it seems. But yesterday I got an email from about 3 or 4 of them for this product Easy Typing Cash, saying similar lines like "Can You Type, $2,357 Check This Week? or $925.14 per day typing simple blog posts, etc. So I clicked and checked it out, I just so happened to have it opened twice one from one guru and one from another. Now I noticed something, they must be testing different landing pages or something. I saw the same exact testimonial on each page but from two different people, then I saw another same testimonial, different name and picture! I mean come on, are you serious? At that point, I was ticked because obviously it must be some BS that they are promoting just to make a buck, because they have thousands of people on their email list. I was very disappointed by this, and I just wanted to get feedback from anyone who may be familiar with this product? Is it another data entry, article writing blog posting scam or is it a legit product? |

Actually, I happen to know more than most about this offer. As it is run on my network exclusively. The advertiser behind this product is much different than others out there in that he actually talks to his buyers...on the phone (his company). I'm sorry that you review this as being a scam; however, something is only a scam when there is no value in it. If you actually get the book, and read through it...then the all important step...apply what you learn. You can definitely make money from this. The header line "easy typing cash" and the flow of the offer is explaining how ANYONE can take as simple of a skill as typing and turn it into money. This is all true. i'm unsure as to how it becomes a "scam" there is no hidden information in the purchase of the order and you have 100% right to buy or not buy...no one is forcing your hand. Now Google Cash type offers...yes, those are scams...however this is just a simple offer meant to make everyone a couple dollars and I assure you...the advertiser is selling this ebook at an appropriate price and is actually breaking even (if not losing money) by selling it for $47.00. |

THIS IS A SCAM, you accept it or not... the sales page is using a deceptive misleading information to force the buyer to believe this book gives him access to something exclusive and unique, though, the so called system is nothing but referring to clickbank and promoting affiliate offers using articles and blogs, which is a public knowledge that anyone can learn more and much better information about by just browsing this forum for free, without paying $47 to some scam artists... | |

I too received the same email from a well known IM. I'll just name him here outright, Kevin Wilke of Nitro Marketing, which I find to be honest and sincere in his business practice. Though through no direct experience of purchasing his products. Question is, having experience with his product, do his claims hold true... about being able to consistently make over $500 a day and/or replacing their full time jobs? I ask because, I too am interested in this product. And as you said "however this is just a simple offer meant to make everyone a couple dollars." Well just for reference the sales page, taken directly from his website, (can be found doing a Google search for "Easy Typing Cash"), writer "Tim Thomas" claims... "Over 10,000 Companies Are Ready To Pay You:
"Once Inside You'll Get: Instant 24/7 access to our Members Only Area, where you can make immediate money doing short blog posts, articles, & more!
People want to get into something real and not some ClickBank merchant affiliate scheme, which does sound to be the case here. If so, a sad, sad day. Can anybody prove it? Without getting ripped off of course... Thanks |

I even sent him an email asking about this weird promotion, but yet to receive any response. About the mentioned product itself: -when someone refers in his salesletter to "+10,000 companies waiting for you to enter data for them and they will pay you for a few lines of data" you shall close the sales letter immediately, or if you have time and patient, you can report the site to the FTC or the BBB, as this statement alone is enough to shut their business, it's a "deceptive misleading advertisement" practice, They are mentioning ClickBank, and Clickbank companies are not waiting for you to enter data for them, and won't pay you for submitting data, they will only pay you for closed sales, which isn't a joke or a kids game you'll learn from reading some rehashed information in $47 ebook, it took years for some to figure out a profitable system for generating income from clickbank, it takes hard work, and weeks or months of discipline and commitment to see results. Any ebook make such claims on this sales page is a plain scam, and should be avoided.... That's it. | |

Definitely a scam, there's no way they can promise that much money for a simple blog post.

Most likely is a spin on Bum marketing. Get a blog, make a few posts with some CB products and your rich. It's just that easy... Right? |

Have a read of the small greyed-out print at the foot of the sales page... especially the last paragraph, as it makes for very interesting reading. |

I'll strongly suggest that you stay far away from this. It's purely a scam. Find yourself something better to do to make money online.

Well I want to add that Mr "Running Over America Barefoot" Telman Knudson sent me the link!????! I thought this guy could be trusted? I don't ever give these things time of the day but from HIM I thought it might actually be worth looking at. It's like the illuminati of internet marketing! haha! Just thought I would name and shame as this really has p*ssed me off! Telman Knudson tried to get me to buy a product that says this on the sales page THE STORY DEPICTED ON THIS SITE AND THE PERSON DEPICTED IN THE STORY ARE NOT REAL. RATHER, THIS STORY IS BASED ON TWO INSPIRATIONAL STORIES OF SUCCESS WITH TWO PEOPLE OVERCOMING ODDS DEALING WITH ADVERSITY AND A PHYSICAL DISABILITY ALTHOUGH YOU MAY NOT EXPERIENCE SIMILAR RESULTS. THE RESULTS PORTRAYED IN THE STORY AND IN THE COMMENTS ARE ILLUSTRATIVE, AND MAY NOT BE THE RESULTS THAT YOU ACHIEVE WITH THESE PRODUCTS. THIS PAGE RECEIVES COMPENSATION FOR CLICKS ON OR PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS FEATURED ON THIS SITE." Thanks for the info BJramma So Telman, Thanks mate! I hope your feet hurt so bad! I know its for charity and I'm not bashing that but show the same decency towards the people who subscribe to you! SHABAMBO indeed! Think you're missing the point man! |

You may want to go over to Elance or Craigslist and search under "blog posts" to see what you can really get for doing blog posts. Seems no one on those sites is offering such high amounts just for strictly 'blog posts'. Would be nice to see if there is anyone using the product that has actually gotten those amounts noted on the sales page - not a note from the promoter or the marketers promoting the item [unless they actually used it themselves]. |

hi everybody, As far as I know it's a scam. I received that same promotion myself. Because I suspected it is another data entry type scam I checked it with IM report card. As I figured this is exactly what it was. The scam is not in the fact that it doesn't give anything in return to your money, it just that the sales page presenting this opportunity as if you will be hired by companies that need you to write content, and you will be paid a certain amount of money for your content (and you have the range of payment), but the fact is that you're not hired by anyone, and you may not get any payment for your content. Users on IM report card who bought the product reported that the information on the sales page is misleading and the information that you get when you pay is outdated and certainly not worthy of the sum they ask for. I think this promotion is a shame for any Internet marketer that respects his customers and want them to respect him in return. |

I got the message today from Kevin Wilke. It seems to me that marketers today often forget the lessons of the past when they forget to value their subscribers for a short term gain. I only opened the message because it came from Kevin. His messages will no longer hold the same value for me. |

Hi Forum, My name is Jeremy Johnston and I am the new JV/Affiliate Manager for Nitro Marketing. I want to set a record straight regarding Kevin Wilke and Nitro and that is, Kevin is one of the most integrity based and caring person I have EVER met in this industry. The only reason I took this position is because I align myself with this caliber of people With that said, Kevin is very busy and doesn't always have time to go through each product like he should and I believe this type at home crap might have been set up by our last JV guy. I will personally bring this to Kevin's attention next week in Vegas and I can assure you that Kevin will pull this type of garbage if he deems it so. I'm positive he went based on a personal word from another colleague. I apologize and believe me, I know how frustrating it is to find a decent gig online to make serious money but they are out there. Read my bio on facebook and you'll see that miracles still happen! If there is anything I can do and if you're looking for something to really change your life, hit me up. I'm always looking for new JV's and affiliates. We have some very value driven and high converting offers to promote right now as well as programs to purchase that WILL make you money! I'm living proof! Regards, Jeremy Johnston JV Relations Manager Nitro Marketing, LLC jeremyj (at) nitromarketing.com facebook dot com/meetjeremy |

I have been on Kevin's list for quite some time and I remember receiving the same email before but at the time I wasn't interested in it. If you look at the date of the first post in this thread that mentioned his name, it's 11-02-09 (post #6). So this wasn't the first "offense." Quote:

I was so close to buying this product yesterday but something went wrong thrice while i was trying to pay so i decided to leave it till later. Thank God i didn't. And to the marketer who promoted this offer to me. I have only one thing to say, he has lost a loyal customer.

They will sell you information on either how to do affiliate marketing through google adwords or informtion on how to scam others. There are tons of these types of sites out there. The general rule is that you never pay for a "job".

I got this only yesterday (from a self-claimed multimillionaire IM guru) and came here to verify it's authenticity and see this discussion about it being a scam. It's a sad day indeed when the IM gurus you trust to lead you to the pot of gold become suspect as well. You kind of think that they too became millionaires by pointing people to fraudulent money making schemes. ![]() Hope their greed doesn't rub off on me. |

I received this BS offer today from none other than Matt Bacak - who like Kevin Wilke - I PREVIOUSLY trusted to send only valid offers. The economy must really be hurting these "gurus" to sell out their reputations for a small buck!

Great reporting and due diligence guys! I received the email 5 hours ago from Mark Joyner. I couldn't fathom him sending out such a program so I looked carefully at the fine print on the site (after I increased the font size several times. Interesting :-) Then I looked for a price on the sales page - nada That raised a real red flag to me. I was not going to give my address on a form without more info. So, I called the company at 1-800-207-1132 I'm still on hold a half an hour later. At Canadian to US toll-free charges, that will add up ![]() >>>> OH ! just got a live person. I asked him how much the course costs? First he says, "$27 - No sorry, $47". I respond, "Interesting, is it $47 or $27?" He replies, "We had a promo on for $27. Now it's $47". I reply, "Could you tell me who owns the company please?" He replies, "I'm sorry, I have no idea". He was polite :-) Their company contact info is: IM Toolkit-Edu. 3116 S Mill - Suite 119 Tempe, AZ 85281 Phone: 1-800-207-1132 Email: support at easytypingcash.com Web: easytypingcash.com |

First of all, I came on this site to step in and defend Kevin Wilke because I have had plenty of time to get to know him. He is a legit and very sincere man who is helping thousands change their lives. After my post above, I spoke with him and he said he trusts the author 100%. After he told me who the IM was, I immediately dropped any hesitation as well. If it wasn't for some of this guys material, I would not where I am today. Kevin did say he was removing the email but only because it does not fit his IM customer base. aidenw11: Don't be so condescending. You're no guru and have no idea what goes up here. samsogee: That's your prerogative but I believe you should stick with Kevin. Wow, I could be here all night. Everyone is so skeptical, scared and has a lack mentality. I have spent 5 figures figuring out this online industry and yes, there are some shady bastards online. However, Kevin Wilke is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. I made a decision a long time ago to only make money online if I could do it with integrity and Kevin's materials have helped me do that. My wife and I have our first eBook about to launch, thanks to Kevin. I'm working his Local Business Money Machine and it's paying off big time! We just helped 99 people in LA get online with profitable niche. I pulled a 20 hour day just to help these people. I trust the guy who put out easy typing cash dot com and I believe if you got off your butt and took action, you could make money doing it. If you fail, you have 60 days to return it. No brainer! No Risk! You can post your replies but I will not be back to check it. If you have something you need to say to me, email me at am4nitro AT gmail |

Actually I never questioned Kevin Wilke's legitimacy. As I said, I have been on his list for quite some time and I did learn a few valuable things from him. And believe it or not, I haven't unsubscribed! I was just a bit disappointed that someone of his caliber would promote something that appears shady. You yourself wrote the following in your previous post: Quote:
And hey, the product being promoted might also be legitimate but why don't they be straight and honest about it and say it's a course in affiliate marketing instead of saying things like "$25 - $50 for entering data into online forms!", "$30 - $75 for typing short articles!" and "YOU get to choose which companies you want to work with. You have total control." (copied and pasted from the actual site) which can easily give the false impression that it's some sort of a salaried job. Another thing is that they ask for your phone number (in addition to name and email) just to show you the sales letter. That's actually what held me back because I don't like being telemarketed. This is going to be my last post in this thread as well. I won't waste anymore of my valuable time and energy. Have a nice day! (just in case you do come back to check this thread )

Hey Guys, Thanks for posting your feedback on this program. I was just about to purchase this for my daughter who just recently lost her job and needed to make a few bucks quickly. She has story writing skills. She was so excited and ready to get started after she read the sales page. Thought I check it out a bit further and found it here. Glad I did. Thanks again warriors, they don't call this forum WARRIORS for nothing. |
