Is Anthony Groeper a scammer?

[yogev]

Hey guys, I don't know how many of you are browsing Instagram growth youtube videos.
But any ways, theres this one "Guru" called Anthony Groeper.
He and his partner Leo launched a "0-100k followers in 30 days" challenge, and the whole thing looks like a one BIG scam.
Account URL: https://www.instagram.com/redpillsuccess/

Apparently, they purchased an account that had more than 10k followers to begin with (so I guess it not a 0-100k), and than they said that they had to "secretly grow it".
Also in the video they said that all they did to grow that account was to buy shoutouts from big influencers.
But somethings just don't make sense to me.
First of all, I checked out their followers, Most of them look like they are from a Panel (I know because I use a pannel myself). Only 1 post (if any at all) and no stories or even a profile picture.
Second of all, their posts get really shitty engagement.

In my opinion, the whole thing was just a "warm up" before they launch their "0-100k blueprint" course.
I mean it's just business, I get it, but they are fucking lying to people. I am really convinced that they purchased 100k USA followers from a pannel.

Otherwise, why would anyone follow an account that only has like 30 posts, which are general as fuck and aren't even eyes-catching? (even if it was promoted by an influencer)

Your thoughts?

Just checked their engagement. It's just fine not sure what you're talking about.

Yeah I guess the engagement is ok in second thought.
But still, did you read the entire thread?
What do you think?

Yes, I did read the entire thread and buying followers and shoutouts is just a part of the game. You can grow accounts with a minimal amount of posts just fine.

67% of his followers are real, maybe he did some S4S with Big Accounts to get this amount of followers in short term

Don’t like this guy!! He’s pretty odd to me

How can you tell?

How can you tell?

i have my own tools to know if account use fake followers or not, but he did mention in his video that he spend +2000$ on ads/shoutouts so i think reasonable he got 100k in 25days.

Account is shit, they're losing followers every day. Engagement is crap, just mainly bought followers/likes. Are "gurus" even worth discussing anymore lol

His followers are still increasing overall if you check his stats and his conversion is decent for his industry so I would say he's a pretty decent guru considering not many members of this forum end up having successful Instagram "journeys".

Of course, it is. But how many people do you know that have grown their accounts with subpar content to 100K followers in such a short span of time? I know BHW likes to shit on gurus but this guru knows what he's talking about.

This dude told me to purchase his 5000$ Ebook.
Basically I would not listen to all these people on YouTube. It would be better to do everything you learned here on BHW and with 2000$ everyone can gain 100.000 followers.. there is no secret behind it
.... with 2000$ you can gain 100k followers with IG ads lol

 

[NimaM]

I wouldn't call him a "Guru" yet. His account's fine tho

You can do a lot of things with your money. Props to the guy for actually doing it.

Facts!! That is definitely true.

I call bull on this guy. His account sucks. Most of his "likes" and "comments" are fake. Yeah, emoji, emoji. Please. I know you guys are not that gullible.
He bought followers and keeps losing them, then buys for another day, and loses them by the end of the week.
a 100K "guru" would not have an average of 30 emoji comments. It would have 70-150 3+ words comments.

Whomever thinks that this guy is a guru and straight-up, needs to start reading BHW posts from 3 years ago and get their head straight.

Comments look legit to me at least on the top posts. I can still see his method working though. 100K is a good amount and he's definitely got some legit followers in there. He's actually going to make money off of his list, not the Instagram page itself so it will stay pay off in the end.

His comments are from engagement groups.. (you can join as many as you want & even automate them through jarvee lol) comments mean nothing nowadays, he loses an avg of 300 followers a day, meaning that his followers are illegitimate.

His socialblade looks pretty suspect from what I can see.

It's not impossible to growth 100k in a month, especially if you're using carefully vetted shoutouts.
