Amount or Item(s) Scammed: 140$
Screenshots of Communication: Can send to an admin (since i wanna make sure i don't "leak" anything of his ebook)
Additional Information: He promotes his ebook as a guide 0$ investment needed (or 30$ to speed up the process which is just extremely well known in the tiktok automation tutorials/groups, that i can't mention). Let's say you want to go with the 0$ path, you would need to get your own editor because the one he provides in the guide isn't even good enough to create those videos, unless you want to spend a whole day straight editing a single video. In my experience, i used Adobe After Effects which wasn't that bad except for spending at least 1-2 hours editing each video which was already a pain in the ass by itself. But ok, it's not an editing guide in itself and that would be fine if the "rare to find tips" promised in the thread of the ebook would make it worth it. Now that's the problem, the so called "rare to find tips" are mostly just public information that you can find on youtube when searching for tiktok automation guides. I could explain what i'm talking about exactly but since Spacey doesn't want anything to get leaked or else i'll have problems i can only mention anything privately with the admins. Most of the tutorials in there to make those videos are youtube tutorials (except when using the paid path which isn't much to praise him for since anyone could have figured all of that out just by exploring for 1 hour or so). Also, an important detail to highlight is that dozens if not almost half of his ebook is filled with big images and tons of repeated pages which is why the ebook has 223 pages, something he likes to mention a lot to make it seem better than what it actually is. (I finished reading the book in around an hour, i don't think that's good for a 200+ pages book). He says that his mentorship and the telegram group he provides is one of the big reasons for the price but, what are we supposed to get from the mentorship if it's just something meant to be used as an extra to help apply the information already in the book? Are we meant to discover the crucial information needed for the method to succeed by asking him all kinds of questions in an attempt to suck the information out of him using the mentorship?? Now about the telegram group, i can't really say much without risking myself. Simple tutorials on how to apply the information mentioned in the ebook which ALL of that is on youtube or a simple google search will tell you the same or similar sources.
It would be better if he sent his ebook to one of the admins so we could get his opinion on it.
Crypto address for a refund: i'll send that in dms if necessary.

Hello, so let me clarify all of these accusations.
1. 0$ Investment method. A:Well, so. The 0$ method shows you how to create the videos in CapCut via a YouTube video (since it would be too much and too hard to understand in just text and images.) | (Also some of the free guides are written by myself)
-> Still, a couple users are actively using the free method especially when they just started and they look honestly amazing, since he claims "the one he provides in the guide isn't even good enough to create those videos"
2. Claming the $30 investment is "extremely well known." A:None of our 48 students ever said that they know the website provided, aswell he probably didn't know the website either. Of course the website rises in population, even if it was so "well known", so? The eBook still provides a 1:1 how to best create the videos like settings of the video and so on. (It's a website, that helps you create one of these videos in a few minutes.)
3. Rare hard to find tips. A:As described in our FAQ, the method provides personal knowledge built over years + hard to find tips. Before i proceed, please remember, the eBook is still whitehat and 100% legal. So of course you won't find blackhat tips in there. Now, the eBook (hard to find tips) show you for example: How to bypass the country restriction, how to comment bait users, how to really interact with your viewers, how to avoid disqualifications on your videos, how the views jail works, how the algorithm works, how to use hashtags, how a shadowban works, how to go viral, best times to post (from own experience.) How to make good ChatGPT prompts (private made by myself, and also used by myself to this day.) Let's keep going: How to boost your views with a secret tip, how to get more follower, how to boost yourself in the SEO of TikTok, affiliate marketing with a website/app (Where i couldn't find a SINGLE video on how to apply to it. I searched: "How to apply to "app/website name" on YouTube.
-> Now, why are these tips called "hard to find"? Simply, because i either took them from my own journey, or i watched hundreds of hours of YouTube videos and did take note of a thing or two, from videos that didn't have crazy views (If you argument that i took them from public.) Also, of course the Ebook just makes everything easier for you, either spend hundreds of hours watching YouTube videos and try to apply all of these, or just buy our ebook which saves you ALOT of time.
4. "Most of the tutorials in there to make those videos are youtube tutorials." A:Just no, over 100 pages are just selfwritten for how to create the videos, in (almost) every niche we provide there's a free & paid option to create such videos. To be exact, there are 3 YouTube videos dedicated how to create the videos for free, as already told above why.
5. "half of his ebook is filled with big images and tons of repeated pages." A:Well, so as already said, the ebook itself includes more than 100 pages showing how to create videos which of course takes a lot of images? I didn't know, it was a bad thing to include more images than just boring text in a Ebook, lol.
6. "He says that his mentorship and the telegram group he provides is one of the big reasons for the price." A:First of all, i never said that. I just said, "It's not only the ebook you know that right? (Ebook, mentoring, Telegram)" Proof: https://i.ibb.co/RbhCp9L/Capture.png To remind him, you not only get the Ebook .pdf for the full price.
7. Claiming my Mentorship is just simple support. A:Simply, is just wrong. It's not just what he stated: "what are we supposed to get from the mentorship if it's just something meant to be used as an extra to help apply the information already in the book?" For people that don't understand what a mentorship is like him, let me break it down for you. I spend hours a day chatting with my students 1:1, giving them tips to improve, analyzing their whole channel, analyzing every single video of them, sometimes even help them out in financial situations.
8. Overall claiming you can find all infos public. A:So, as already told above, of course you could finde SOME of it, but have fun watching hundreds of YouTube videos, you could literally tell that to any Guide "Just spend hours a day getting own experience, and watching YouTube", so you would need to ban 99% of ebook sellers? Ebooks are meant to make your life simpler and save you time.
EDIT: I also never claimed any false promises, i answered all his pre-purchase questions 100% honest. -> https://i.ibb.co/0XkrK3j/Capture.png| i could also export the whole chat if needed, see the red part i exactly said what's going to happen, right?I never lied before he made a purchase, and i was 100% honest all the time -> https://i.ibb.co/ZNqQR2J/Capture.png
My conclusion to this: So, of course i'd be down to send my ebook, telegram and other chats where i mentor my students to Liars/Darkness, i have nothing to hide.
-> Now to you, @praysing. Honestly it just seems like you read the eBook and quickly decided after making a few videos (https://i.ibb.co/tqt8Ltz/Capture.png) to stop and be lazy & now try to claim a refund for it.
To the community: If you think my eBook is really a scam, please ask yourself what you expect in a 100% legal TikTok guide to be included, and private message me and i'll tell you if the ebook offers it or not.
[ ! ] I will wait from an answer from one of the admins, since i already discussed the situation with the OP on Telegram, and we couldn't find a solution.
I stand by what i said in the first post so i won't be repeating some of them.
Answering to the 8th point in your response: It's not "Some" of it and you can't also just grab information from youtube videos and compile it into an ebook while promoting it as having "rare to find tips". You're now saying it's just "Some" of it just so i can't argue with you on that but that's not true at all, in reality it's most of it.
Yes, i mentioned i only made 5 videos and it's not because i'm "lazy" but it's because i was using the only resources provided to me on the 0$ investment path since i know how to edit videos well and instead of spending maybe 2 hours a day preparing everything i would need to spend way more than that per day. My videos didn't get any views either in the time i posted them because it's no where near the quality of other videos in the same niche or entertaining and there's nothing to improve that other than some prompts for chatgpt that were provided and script examples (which i tried both and didn't make much difference). So there goes the part of growing on tiktok where it's not focused on luck, which was literally the purpose of this ebook. Why would i want SEO tips or affiliate marketing if i can't make good videos using your own resources. Comparing those videos to any decent account on the same niche there's a huge difference in quality which you're not capable of teaching us.
You can write as much crap as you want about giving tips on performance but it will not work for most people if the content continues to be shit.
Also, about the screenshots you provided on the 7th point. On the first one you literally just told the guy "yeah if your video isn't getting good engagement that's because, either your video sucks, tiktok is not promoting it to the right audience (how tf are you supposed to fix that??? that just means it's bad or unlucky that's how tiktok's "views jail" or what you call it works) or you're just not using enough cta (aka loud sounds). You basically told that guy a bunch of possibilities that are obvious and won't help him at all. The second screenshot is a nothing burguer, we're not praising you for giving buyers more chatgpt prompts because your existing ones are giving them problems.
Anyways, just share it with an admin and they'll decide it.

This is my last update to this, let the admins decide.
1. Regarding the YouTube videos A:The YouTube videos you talk about that are included are just the videos on how to create the videos for free, already explained it. I created some by myself aswell. They have 0% to do with any tips on to go viral or anything related to the tips and guide besided creating videos. The eBook currently includes 5 YouTube videos, not a single one is about how to go viral or even near that topic. 2 are about something different (how to use 2 monetization options)
2. Your Effort A:Well, didn't you say you created them in After Effects? "i used Adobe After Effects" even though the tutorial clearly gives an tutorial for CapCut, and you complain about your videos coming out bad? (Don't say After Effects is better, because CapCut is better for creating these type of videos, rather it's probably your lack of editing skills where you don't even need any really for CapCut.) Or just simply invest in the paid option, but i don't force you to, already told you some users doing it with CapCut and really doing great results, i am very proud of every single student putting in the work. (Want me to show a video used with CapCut did by a student? Contact me on Telegram.)
3. Mentoring A:First of all, i kindly ask you to state my words 1:1 like i do for yours, thanks :) Now let me explain: You did not see the whole chat where we kept talking about it (should have let you know that it wasn't the full chat), at the end he asked if i can check his video out, guess what? I did it and gave him even deeper tips, which i can't show because it would leak the niche & tips from the ebook.
4.Growing on TikTok A: "So there goes the part of growing on tiktok where it's not focused on luck, which was literally the purpose of this ebook. Why would i want SEO tips or affiliate marketing if i can't make good videos using your own resources. Comparing those videos to any decent account on the same niche there's a huge difference in quality which you're not capable of teaching us.You can write as much crap as you want about giving tips on performance but it will not work for most people if the content continues to be shit."
-> You even asked me how to improve your video, and i gave you the tips within 1-3 minutes. - You asked me about 2 videos you made, not 5 you said you made, i only was able to give you tips on these two. | I could offer you a 1:1 chat with me any time you want, and we will 1:1 create the video, again 1:1, every single message, every sound, anything.
Note: Since you can't seem to understand it, the eBook includes some really basic tips which you aswell can find on Google/YouTube if you search for them. This eBook is made for both beginners & advanced people in the TikTok "business." This still doesn't mean that the eBook is mostly filled with public informations, already told you again - it has more my own knowledge in it rather than just copied from any other guides on Google or YouTube. So you want to say you can just take years and learn it all by yourself? Now, to REALLY clarify this, it does of course include some basic tips - for total beginners, which many people are.
I never said it was a problem, but exclusively relying on youtube videos when it comes to the video creation process is a scam for me. The only way to go viral on tiktok is by having luck or a really good video. You never mentioned that the method was focused on the video creation process, you're right about that, i personally believe the editing proccess is the most important one which by only giving us public youtube videos and no unique way to make them GOOD it's already a huge flaw. But that's just me, let's say that SEO tips, or whatever, make a huge difference on the video's performance, still the so called "SEO tips" and other engagement garbage you have in your ebook is just basic knowledge that everyone knows about, it's nothing special. Those "rare to find tips" and other stuff you promise everyone is a complete lie and you're trying so hard to be careful how you write and put everything so no one can tell you that this is extremely overpriced for it's value.
Yeah i didn't use capcut to edit the videos, because i tried at the start to use capcut but i just didn't find any of the features necessary to put everything together so i had to use After Effects.
You can't even say Capcut is better for those videos that's a load of bullshit, it does everything capcut is capable of and more it's literally a professional editor. Of course capcut is more reliable for those types of fast low edited tiktok videos but capcut never was better than after effects on any level and i did everything that was meant to be done.
Weren't you the one that said my videos were great and only suggested me to add some notification noises? Yeah you were, and now you're saying my videos were bad so you can put the fault on me that your ebook is trash.
"So you want to say you can just take years and learn it all by yourself?" - So you took years to learn basic content creation knowledge, make some chatgpt prompts and know how to monetize your tiktok accounts (simple google search btw)? Sorry but i don't think anyone will believe that you took years to learn and come up with all of that.
Also, on your selling thread you mention "few youtube videos". Ok, but how are we supposed to know what that is about? It could literally be for setting up a tiktok account, applying for crp or setting up something small. Not the whole video creation proccess that millions of other kids also used...
Are you telling me my video is going to go viral just because of your "SEO tips", that aren't really tips?
Just send it to one of the admins and show them exactly that so they can see how shit it actually is since you don't want me to "leak" anything.
