Op was not buying legit copies, he tried to defraud and got defrauded, who says the creaters of the stuff are not in the same finanicial position as him.

My issue isnt that the op tried to get pirated copies, hell we all do that. It is that he moans about being ripped off and wants sympathy, when his fraud does not pan out for him.

Is OP really fraud tho? You are making a big claim here my man.

I have lived in both 1st and 3rd world country. So I completly understand OP situation here. I used to work 8am-6pm on sunny day walking all over town selling finance shit to complete stranger 6 days a week. And my monthly salary was 100$. And I considered myself lucky as most of my friends were unemployed.

Can you imagine being in that situation and wanting to use some IM tools for your side hustle where average price of tool is 50-100$ and course is 200-1000$?

No matter how hard you want to support the creator you can't get them at their orginal price. It is just not possible. And considering the fact that you are not 100% sure that whether those tool or course will yield your money back, there is no way any person in 3rd world is getting them at their orginal price.

Also, it is a big mistake in course and tools creators part in itself, if they price their stuff 100s of dollar and expect them to do well in third world country. When you price your tools and course at that amount, no matter how helpful and life changing it is, only few rich people over there might get it.

But I agree with your sympathy part. Don't look for sympathy OP. Let that be the lesson to do few research on internet before getting any thing. And let it burn the fire inside you to get your 150$ back from IM.

I am telling you this because I was exactly in your situation. One people took 150$ from me to teach me "how to make money on internet" and ran away. I trusted the guy and he fucked me. I was mad but I let that be the fire inside me to get my 150$ back from internet. And now I got way more than that. If that guy didn't scam me, it would have taken too much time to get where I am at now. But it made the process faster because when you have that drive hard work and discipline becomes easy. And more work you put, more chance of you getting successful.

Also, if it makes your situation any nice, the money I lost was my father 1 month salary which he told me not to use. So you know how things went at home for some times. :D

I am a cop in India (work under ministry of Home affairs, government of India) and its not joke. We are not that much sufasticated to help him. Even if I talk about IM with my staff they don't give me attention. They see me like I am a insane guy if I talk about someone who is earning more that $10k in a month. They think it must be illegal or something like investing money in stock markets. Lol

Sadly it's often the case, when you are working hard to find scammers and deal with them, only to find your hard work is being undermined, usually by people paying their way out of situations.

We are helpless and its hard to configure the domain and his owner. Nobody give data of their clients. Even indian law don't impact on others country. So it's better to forget the past and start from scratch.

I am from India too. I think you are wayyyyyyy underestimating the payment. Yes there are bad jobs throughout India, but there are good jobs too. You could easily get $1000 a month job if you have some technical skills (doesn't have to be IT even.). Be a bit more positive perhaps. Look for your dream job instead of those "grinder" ones.

Very true they do even Google current Chairman is an Indian plus they have like incredibly smart I think 12-year kid working for them as well a prodigy .
 
The site has negative reviews all over Google, all over YouTube, and all over social media.
OP thought I should give it a try.
The admins asked OP to pay through a 3rd party site instead of having a payment processor like any other legit site.
OP still thought I should give it a try.

This is no less than Nigerian Prince scam. You should be careful OP. Now, don't end up in Freelancer.com who are much bigger scammers.

If it is bad or not dependes on the cost of living in a $2/Hour country, sure you can live in a country that earns you $25/Hour as an employee, but it costs a lot to live, so quality of life might not be better economically with higher pay, you need to set it in context to costs.

$2/hour is less when you're trying to move to a first-world country for a better quality of life with your family
 
Thanks for the advice. Appreciate it.

First of all, sorry to hear that you lost some money. However, since you seem to be a newbie to internet marketing, I'm playing the devil's advocate here : it MAY be that you do not know how to access what you purchased or do not know that you have access ONLY to what you purchased and you are having incorrect expectations. That MAY be a point, or perhaps not. Incase what you have mentioned is actually what happened in reality, then it is a learning curve that EVERYONE initially goes through in the start of their internet marketing journey. Before you buy anything, please do your due diligence research. Just use Google. For example : You want to buy "Papa Mama Kakkaa", then go to google dot com and search "Papa Mama Kakkaa scam", "Papa Mama Kakkaa fraud", "Papa Mama Kakkaa complaints" and use your common sense and come to a conclusion. Remember also that very legit genuine brands also have a few disgruntled buyers as well. Keep that also in mind. Hope you recover your loss through being creative and making money.
