Default I think i just discovered the biggest SCAM product on clickbank ...

I was doing research on CBEngine com using the "Commission BluePrint" 30/100 formula. (Simple speak: I was looking for products on clickbank which pay more than $30 with a gravity > 100)

Along came this "product" sixfigureyearly.com, which according to CBEngine has decent stats, low refund rate and a nice payout in the 40s range.

I did some more research and somehow i ended up on something like a "thank-you page" - and to my amazement the whole "system" (or whatever you want to call this "product") was on my screen and was able to browse 10 "chapters" where he described the whole system, how he made $80.000 in 26days and so forth.

This is one of his pitch-lines, by the way:

Quote:

"I'm going to show you how I put $1000 - $3,500 a day in my account

and access it through any ATM anywhere in the world. This simple, but secret system is consistent, safe, legal and secure. I was earning
$1000 to $3,500 a day in just days!"
So, turns out his system is solely and only to give basic advice to people about his system, tell them to sign up as affiliates for HIM and sell HIS product. Then he gives some very basic/rudimentary pointers about how to make a site and how to sign up as an affiliate, and then drive traffic with PayPerClick, without going more into details.

Not enough with this "the method is the method" scam, he also has the audacity to sell website templates on his site. So...he basically says to re-sell his scam system and in addition wants to rip-off people selling them some pre-made templates.

I wouldnt rant about this, but:

a) I am amazed that according to CBEngine this product has pretty stats, it would fit the 30/100 rule and all other criteria.

b) i am amazed that systems like this make it to clickbank even and dont get banned right away.

c) i am also amazed about the stupidity of the site owner to have his course unprotected on the net so everyone searching on google can read the 10 chapters of this great "system" since they're all indexed in Google

Hi,

That's not the system itself, I'm afraid, you just ran into the affiliate program of the systems. Which seems to be rather well paying for these affiliates.

How many emails do you want to process?
25$ per processed email.
You just need to make an initial investment of 25$ to get the starter pack.
Work one hour and make as much as 250$/day.

I guess everybody gets this kind of emails in his junk folder.

I don't know how is the owner of the product so I am not attacking a specific person...but such people must SHAME themselves.

I'm not suprised one bit! There are quite a few products out there that are nothing more than "be an affiliate of my product, buy my website templete, get traffic and make thousands". Of course they make it sound much nicer than that but thats the jist of it.

Guys, there is a rule:

If "common sense" tells you beforehand "Hmm...Scam....?" - it PROBABLY is.

One indicator is a sales-page where "the method" is deliberately hidden. People don't hide their "systems" without a reason

I am pretty sure its the actual "system" by the way.

Oh, look here:

Six Figure Yearly Reviewed - Busted

Just confirms it.

It's a pyramid sceme

Funny how Pyramids seem to be 99% of the world. They are everywhere. In every business you don't know what the person higher up in the hiearchy knows. Same with college and uni. Same with government, same with "secret societys", same with scams.

Makes sense though, perfect method of control and order.

I'm ranting

Anyway, thanks for giving us the heads up about this. There salespage gives off a completly different impression!

Hi again,

I was wrong. You are right. It's truly unbelievable.

a. the fact that you can just hop in from Google page 6 (or something) to their Thank You page, without any protection. And read all that.
b. even worse is the fact that this is all just disinformation: a lot of jibberish about mindset, selling information online, and then just plugging in the selling of their own site! With a review site that you have to buy from them. And then attract visitors via PPC. With that one clumsily made Google Adwords course they attach to it...

Boy, so many people are going to pay for this **** (the course costs more then 114 dollars), and then lose a lot of dough on PPC. They're just sitting ducks.
It's really unbelievable that Clickbank allows this.

Yours, startledly, Ed

Clickbank only looks after clickbank. Remember those PSP membership sites that taught people how to get "free" psp stuff from torrent sites, that was one big ripoff and only when CB was threatened with a lawsuit did they pull those kind of sites.

I actually went and did the search for this product and went through it real fast and found aboslute No real information.
Ty for pointing this out. I'll make sure I'll post in other forums about this useless crap. This is the reason I joined here to find the truth about products and find the ones that are worth the time.

Well, can you spell the word P-Y-R-A-M-I-D. That is what we see. With one big shot on top raking in all the money and those underneath getting a few crumbs. He does not add value or benefit to those who pay good money for junk.

I hate how the same old tricks as in ponzi sceme are used again and again to fleece customers who want to make money on the internet.

The sad thing is that this guy has probably made thousands of dollars from this scam and a lot of buyers will have suffered.

I wonder if the 'guy' is a member of this forum and if he'll try to defend himself?

Also, I was under the impression that it was hard to get an ebook approved by Clickbank, although I personally haven't tried to (yet).

Do they 'delist' things that they find out are scams? Seems like it would be a good idea in this case anyway.

Honestly, I find there is more crap than not on click bank. I am not surprised to hear about such as scam. The sad part is that many have obviously been taken by this junk.

You know what annoys em about this? The fact that people, like me can write a really good ebook and it not sell and then scammers make outrageous claims and make money.

Is selling a genuine product without making ridiculous claims ever going to pay out!?
