George Brown's PREDATOR Review

16 replies
Hi all,

after a long wait for George Browns Predator, I bought it. I thought it would be well worth it when it finally did come out as George has put out some great things in the past and I "had" been a big fan of his for a long time.

I bought it on the 1st of November, I eagerly went to sign on however it would not give me access at all. It even states that I have made no payment what so ever and just asks me to please pay to get access. I thought ok then no problem, new programs come with glitches no matter how well tested, so I contacted George/staff via his support ticketing system. (as instructed and also on another email address I have)
Today is now 11pm 5th of November in Australia and I still have not received any responding email from George/staff..... After paying $795 for Predator, not getting access to it and to top it off no explanation as to why or if I will see my money again......to say I am disappointed is an understatement.
I have sent a further email stating I want either a response back or my money back with 48 hours (which I think is more than generous) or I will be contacting my bank and stating I have been SCAMMED! You pay for a product/don't receive it/no response to emails.....What would you call it???
I don't believe I am bagging George at all, as I don't know him personally! This review is purely based on my experience with Predator only!!

I give caution to anyone thinking of purchasing Predator!

Paul

    You might find this link helpful to try and get your money back, as you are not alone with this at all. Questions have also been raised about the claimed $110k investment in this software when people who know how to program advise they can get something similar up and running in less than 24 hours (not pretty to look at but functional) for a fraction of the cost.

    You are NOT alone, I am a victim of the very same, and no response to tickets or SWreg tickets either. But there is enough bad press not only on here but also spread around the internet that will open a few eyes of the folks who are laundering his payments for him. There are also other things that can be done to put GB in a position where he HAS to answer to these misdeeds.

    He is treading on very thin ice, it is one thing to get lots of CC chargebacks for reason of unhappy customer, and it is a very different thing to get loads of chargebacks siting fraud and scam accusations. Because GB may well wake up one morning to find his bank accounts frozen pending investigation and I really would not like to be him when he has to explain exactly what this software does.

    This could open up a whole big can of worms for him.

    I hope he reads this. because I for one WILL be using 'suspected fraud' as my reason for chargeback.

      why is every one here so negative here. i have bought the software did not get the activating code on time infact it took 5 days. now that i have it I am going to give it a whirl, for crying out loud "it is in Beta" there are bound to be problems, This is the classic reason why the failure rate is so high on the internet, as soon as there is a bump in the road people quit and call things a scam.

        Santella....why so negative??? Did you actually read what everyone has said? and why everyone is so negative? I have paid 7 days ago now and I still cannot get access and no one responds to emails....

        I was expecting problems with the system as it is new, but I hoped I was allowed entry to begin with and a reply to my 4 emails!!

        Gee Whiz I am supposed to be positive about that?? this is not a bump in the road, when you pay and get NO PRODUCT it is called a SCAM!!

    I put up a post and I think it was taken down but I did get email yesterday saying they were giving me a full refund after I made a refund demand via support tickets. I will know in a few days if that was truly done, I also wanted to mention that if you want there phone number. My cc provided me with there contact info. You can always contact them (your credit card company) and request they give you the merchants number, they should be able to find it.

    santella,

    I have given it a whirl for 5 days. I watched the first training session and believe me it was not all it was cracked up to be.

    I also worked through all the issues and send out two offers via predator. my 15 accounts hotmail, gmail and yahoo were all shut down or frozen due to suspicious activity.

    Information is scare, half provided, vague. Most of the what seem to be effective marketing techniques focus more on the offline marketing side. Craigslist is onto predator and I believe is WARNING their users of potential advertisements spamming there accounts.

    Whether you keep the product or not, be wary is all I can say and wish you all the best with it.

      I gave the product a whirl too and have since received a refund. Here is why:

      It's not that it's "beta": I undestand that there will be bugs with beta products and to GB's credit they did fix all my bugs and I was able to get campaigns off the ground.

      It's not the price (by itself): If a software is valuable enough, you can make back that $800 in a matter of days...

      What got me was:

      1. GB was not AT ALL prepared to handle the launch.

      2. There is not enough staff to handle the flood of tickets he should have seen coming being as this is a beta product and was being released onto the public's computer. As a result, communication was EXTREMELY POOR and for people dropping $800 on software, you had better be there to answer any and all questions quickly or people are going to be breathing FIRE and rightfully so....ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ASK FOR REFUND and don't hear back for a week....

      3. I don't want to mess with spamming and all that crap. Craigslist is anal enough...we don't need them tightening up their sphincter even more....and I don't want to go to jail for sending an email...

      4. There are other uses for Predator but they are not IMO worth the $800 price tag. For that high of a $ amount, I should be making money within a week of using this.

      5. Not offering a trial period or a refund up front for something this costly, just makes you LOOK shady. He should have stated that PLAINLY in the launch webinar...

    Try this email where he promoted the live stream of predator. This is the email address that is used for googlesniper and on the day of the predator stream, the support team usually write back.

    Whoa, Paul! your experience is eerily similar to mine. I just finished posting an update about a similar experience. I wouldn't say I was a huge George Brown fan, but I knew he had some pretty good buzz around some of his courses. I'm not trying bash George either, but this will DEFINITELY sting his credibility a bit.

    Steven UK is totally right, I did end up having to contact my bank. Banks don't play around with claims. The bank reimbursed my account and is going through the claims process with SWReg.

    I hope it all works out, Paul.

    After spending sometime on Predator last night it does have a lot going for it if you explore the other options, I'm glad most of you have thrown in the towel already the less people the better.

    People knew what they was buying so how can you call George a fraud, its also in beta so I expect more updates and new features soon although theres ways around this, Predator combined with a few other tools works like a dream for me.

    very interesting....i bought his first product google sniper and recently saw the site plus the product on flippa. he's a young guy and has probably buggered off to Thailand thinking he got away with it all. I hope he does get seriously investigated....

    someone else posted about a similar product here, has anyone had any experience with that??

    Hi everyone,

    I just wanted to update that I had recently requested a refund via the support system and they replied a few days ago and said they would refund my money and apologized for any issues and wished me well. I have received those funds back on my cc so I am satisfied that they will honour any refunds. Good luck

    Guys,

    Please STOP speaking about George, review the product. These posts are being shut down for 1 continuing reason. People attack George personally.

      Hey guys you all have points both good and bad. Well I have used many programs and often they don't perform at first. However I would say that this isn't the magic bullet but it does offer some very interesting ideas. 800$ is a lot of money to waste I see it this time as "investing" so I am going to let it run and see what GB comes up with. If it goes down the pan then I'll put it down to experience he calls it "BETA". Enjoy.
