Scammed by 2000 Dollars and getting your Money Back Treu Paypal.

Hey Guys,


Somebody is offering me to pay him 2k for coaching.

And then i will be in his coaching program and learn how to make money treu cpa.

But he doesnt have a website he just wants me to pay him to his paypal email adress.

I want to know if he scams me what can i do to get my money back.

I follow a other marketer who i trust and does big things in the CPA game and this guy who wants to coach me is a student of the marketer i trust, but the marketer i trust his mastermind is 5k to get in to and i cannot afford that.

The offer he did to me is so crazy i am thinking or he is a angel sent to earth or he is a guy who wants a quik 2k with no regards for other people.

He wants me to be head of his team and is gonna teach me how to place ads and wich offers to choose. And he will even pay the budget for the ads. When i have a good understanding of how to place ads and what not i will train people from India and the Philipines how to do it on his behafe and make 10 procent of everything he makes.

I even talked with him on the phone.

The thing is why would he trust me with his money. He really sounds like a good man but you never know.


I am willing to take the risk and give him the money if i can get my money back when i found out he is only big talk.

I want to know how i can get my money with paypal back if he scammes me.

    What a great guy. I can't get anyone to coach me for $2000!

    Seriously though, do not give them $2000 up front. That would be foolish.

    I hate to burst your bubble, but if it's too good to be true, it usually is!

    Yes you could probably file a dispute with PP afterwards, but it's no use if he's drained that particular account dry and abandoned it

      That's actually false. What happens with PayPal is when an account uses all the funds, PayPal will take it out of their own account and place the person in debt. If it's a substantial amount, they send debt collectors and file an investigation.

      In regards to the topic, don't do it.

    Sorry but nothing. PayPal buyer protection doesn't cover you for services.

    If you use a credit card you may be able to do a chargeback.

    Sounds shady to me. RUN away!

    Maybe offer a smaller down payment for the first instalment of the training. If he is genuine then why would he say no and this way you can see how good is training strategy is.

    Use escrow for this, if he's real he will accept, if not you won't hear him again...

      There is no sure way to protect yourself once you pay him. I can't believe you're still considering this.

      Even the crappy coaches have a website.

      Did you actually even read any of the input you are thanking people for? In the replies there were several answers.

      You can't.

      It almost seems like you've already given over the money and are searching for a way to get it back...

        If he does not have a solid track record on WF or JVZOO or CB I would not give him 2k. Your better off paying this money and getting yourself a product or buying traffic.

        The whole process of making money online is pretty easy once you figure out there is only a few main ways people here are making money. The hard part comes from people not wanting to work hard to build it up...

        The secret to Internet Marketing is "There is NO Secret"

        Don't think that paying this guy 2k, that he is going to teach you some super secret method that is going to make you rich.

        If your going to waste your money your better off finding out what his coaching is about and blowing the 2k on WF in the WSO section or JVZOO and buy some knowledge.

      The guy i follow pointed him out as on of his student that made 3k after following his stuff in his 5k mastermind.

      Then i added him like 3 months ago and we started talking.

        The guy wants you to pay him 2K but has only ever made 3K by himself after paying out 5K? Nope, don't do it! You will just be paying him back the 2K he lost on the mastermind programme.

        No website, no proof of earnings? No chance!

    I'll say what everone is thinking. Don't be an idiot. If he has no website and a way to take payments on that site he is shady. You'd be better off going to the WSO section and looking at the coaching products there. Coaching is no guarantee that you will make any money. You'd be better off reading some good threads on this forum and trying some things yourself.

    You'd be a fool to send this guy even $1. You have no references, no guarantees, you don't even know him. He has no credentials of any kind and all you got so far is a request to send him $2K. If it's that easy, send it to me instead.

    You give yourself already all kinds of thoughts, why this would be bad choice! Just don't do it, just because your mind on the other site tells you "Oh this is gonna be sooo goood". Trust your gut feeling ...

    ... and if you say, he has no successes to show for himself, that is reason number one why you should look for alternatives. Only work with people, that have something to show, that proves their success and skills. Being a student of someone successful does not guarantee success or skill on their site.

      why in heavens name would you fork over $2k in coaching from an unknown dude when there are some brilliant WSOs from well-known successful Warriors that I or anyone else here could point you to that have a whole complete process for you to follow for less than $30?

      Save your money, honey. Please. I hope, like Steve posted, you didn't already pay this dude.

    bro, never make mistake i made, never pay directly to his paypal account, if u must get training from him , use a third party payment system like escrow, this will be helpful in case of unsatisfaction or dispute in the course of training
