Welcome!

Not the owner of that site, Drew Wilson, but his site is a clone of many others all selling the same thing written by Jason Ryan Isaksen. As a matter of fact, somebody was here just the other day asking about the same thing - different seller's site, though. What *are* the odds?
How did you hear about cash2flow.com?

Funny thing. The sites claim to review opportunities, and claim they're all crap except his. What *are* the odds of that being true? :-)
Run a Google search for "Jason Ryan Isaksen" and you'll see 890 hits. Many, if not most of them being identical clones except for the reseller's name. Almost all hosted at the same hosting company. What *are* the odds?
His secret is "sell this stuff like the guy you bought it from, and you'll make as much money as him. And he's obviously making as much money as me."
Problem is - those 890 other sites all selling the same thing. Seems like a saturated seller's market. Normal marketers adjust their offering price to differentiate themselves from their competition, if it's a commodity they're selling and service doesn't enter into it. All 890 can't sell the same thing for the same price and thrive.
For extra credit, take a look at Isaksen's bank statement at http://www.cash2flow.com/statement.html and see the multiple returned items and chargebacks. Disgruntled customers tend to stop payments on checks.

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.

You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
