Thread: Is My Advertising Pays / The Advert Platform A Scam or Ponzi?

I don't undersatnd why he is complaining. The whole MAPs thing has been sold as an easy way to make money, hasn't it? Our boy Gary "Thirsty" Strong keeps posting videos /pictures of himself getting sh*t-faced, boasting that he is still being "paid every 20 minutes". Others say they are earning while out walking/at the gym/playing with the grandkids/etc. The dream dangled before Mappers has been to get to 1000 packs - "Diamond" status - and then live off the "income".

So why is Simon complaining when the people before him have only done what they have been advised they should do?

Unless of course they need more money coming in from newbies to keep the whole thing going? He says in the video if they all brought in 10 more people "just think what that will do for your business". Well, what will it do? Shouldn't do anything as MAPs is an advertising business, right?

Right?

apparently this self proclaimed financial wizard Simon couldn't even organise counting the number of people who were having dinner.

Simon claims 95% of advertising revenue is being paid out to members. I too am left wondering where any reserve may have come from since it is advertised almost all money is returned to members.

Mathematically speaking since Simon uses "revenue" instead of "net income" or "profits" MAP would certainly be operating at a deficit under this model. If 10% of each ad pack sale is paid in commission there isn't 95% left to share.

Like Simon's claim 100% are getting paid?

What a financial genius.

Borrow money using a 0% credit card to buy into the My Advertising Pays ponzi / pyramid scheme.

What could possible go wrong ???

My-Advertising-Pays-Scam page on Facebook

Long term ponzi / pyramid scheme watchers will immediately recognize a predictable pattern emerging in connection with My Advertising Pays.

More and more reports are emerging of accounts being blocked and / or confiscated.

If you overlook the fact "Peter" is recommending the next "next-big-thing" what he describes as having happened to him is common practice when a ponzi / pyramid is no longer attracting sufficient new members / money to continue paying existing members



Just as Mike Deese, Septic Simon Stepsys and the Booths did with US members, accounts are confiscated without notice and the balances are lost to keep up the facade of My Advertising Pays" "success"

Gary "Thirsty" Strong is at it again....

Whatta guy, huh?

Della, I swear you must have a permanent deep crevice on your forehead by now from all your brow-slapping?

Mind you, I have next to no hair because I've torn it all out at some of the posts I've seen on here

HINT: They usually involve this rodent

Sounds a guy you'd really trust with business advice. Looks really professional flashing a few fake notes off. You see Richard Branson doing that a lot has an 'Entreprenuer'!

The chinks in the My Advertising Pays armour are slowly beginning to show:

Yup, you got that right, Jack! Sometimes I can't believe these people!

Our good friend, Top Tips Man, is back with more tips. I'm sure we are all eager (cough) to hear them.

He's been reading the boy Simon's book again. And what had he picked up from it? Yes, which are the best people to target!

Maps 253 Jul 16.jpg Maps 254 Jul 16.jpg

I've underlined part of it that I find especially interesting. "More join, more by (buy) credit packs, and everyone's journey is shorter". Is he really saying that the scheme needs more members pumping in money as its life blood? Because wouldn't that make it a ponzi scheme?

Oh, hang on, wait a minute.....

Slightly off topic, but still useful, here are some wise words from Mark "The Gerbil" Ghobril:-

Maps 255 Jul 16.jpg



Is this the SAME Mark Ghobril who was such a big noise in Banners Broker? Who is promoting MAPs madly? Who has lured people into two schemes that I know of, and is here, warning against another? Yup, it certainly is!

Mark, sweetie pops, considering your personal history of involvement with schemes, including MAPs and BB, isn't this just the teeniest bit hypocritical of you?? I mean, where was your concern for people when BB crashed and burned?

I haven't got the screenshot of you saying you would personally pay people back if BB proved to be fake, but I'm sure someone else could supply it. Tell me, have you paid people back yet?

Some of these people.....they just beggar belief!

I don't see what's so hard to figure out that if you want to sell legitimate advertising, you go to where the legitiamte businesses are. That's not a secret.



ooooooooh...........

Here's a very important lesson for young players:

When the pimps start telling you not to withdraw your earnings, you just KNOW the scheme has money problems and it's almost too late to get your money out.

We are all in this together right? None of us like these thieving scammers, their dodgy Ponzi schemes, and their naive and gullible Ponzi victims.

So why in God's name is the "My Advertising Pays - Scam" shutting down/deleting/banning good people from being able to post and share there? I was personally (most of you know who I actually am) banned from posting there for no named reason, and I have had other good people get in touch with me to say that they have had similar poor treatment.

Harrison, you know there are other people trying to help close this (and other) scam(s) down? Your behaviour of deleting posts and banning users puts you in the same league as Tony Booth, Danny Turner and Gary Strong. I believe you're better than that, otherwise you wouldn't put in the hours of hard work and dedication you do.

I invite you to comment here as to what your reasons are for treating people who are on the anti-scammers side like this, or just unban them (and me), and maybe we can get this BS Ponzi scheme shut down faster and help less people lose less money.

Anyone remenber this charming Mapper? He was vocal on Simon's Maps Success FB page some months ago, but has been quiet for a long time.

GC1 July 16.jpg

Strong in his defence of MAPS, I see. And there's more....

GC2 Jul 16.jpg

But suddenly, there's this. What on earth could have happened?

GC3 Jul 6.jpg

Perhaps his sponsor could help? Who is his sponsor, I wonder?

Oh, I see.

GC4 Jul 16.jpg

Perhaps there's a moral to this story. That all that glitters is not gold?

Remember our old friend Sandy Singh?

He used to write
Annoying little
verses just like this
About MAPs.
Calling himself
Rockstar Sandy

Anyway, he is now MIGHTILY PIS*ED OFF SANDY.

I'm so glad that MAP is a world-class business and only attracts the very best and upstanding business professionals as members. Otherwise they would be holding their "opportunity" events in pubs and hotel conference rooms, making videos of themselves driving expensive cars promoting themselves while making all their money from referral fees and not MAP, and of course last but not least, ranting like a drunken, wasted gutter snipe. Aren't you?

'We've had some unconfirmed rumours today from our fellow scambusters in Germany regarding the leader of the MAPS Academy, Alexander Vitocco. It's been reported that he was taken into Police custody a few weeks ago for his (presumed) involvement in a previous scam called Business Capital Investors Corporation. We have limited information on this at present, but will report back as soon as we have a confirmed arrest.'

The source in Germany was very close to this so we're sure this info is correct, but getting info out of Germany regarding legal processes is really hard. There certainly are many things happening in Germany at the moment regarding the leaders ( or lack of them) but hopefully we'll be able to share all this real soon.

!

....but I have. I have a nice little folder of screen caps and other little treats, trinkets and what not just for occasions such as this.

And I always like to add to it.

And as I'm feeling particularly generous this evening, I've added this especially for LittleRoundMan

May his non-banning hammer be merciful once more.
