Description
I am submitting a complaint regarding an offer I received to join a program called “Income Team X.” I was contacted by a man who identified himself as John Jackson, and asked me to call him “JJ.” He initially attempted to call me, and when I was unavailable, I later scheduled a call with him. During our conversation, which lasted approximately one hour, I discussed my goals and what I was hoping to achieve financially. During the call, he mentioned that he screens individuals before referring them to his “boss,” who would then continue the process. However, the conversation never progressed to that stage. Instead, he began asking detailed questions about my credit score and credit cards. Although I was uncomfortable, I provided an honest answer that my credit score is in the low 500s. He then told me that I would need to raise my credit score before I could proceed, which raised concerns for me. Additionally, he stated that I was “guaranteed to make money,” which contradicts the advertisement I responded to that claimed I could begin making money the first night. This inconsistency was another red flag. I also informed him that I already have a Shopify store, which he seemed pleased about, stating that it meant he would not need to explain certain concepts. Despite this, I was never provided with any formal training, documentation, or legitimate onboarding materials. Following this interaction, I continue to receive emails from an individual named Brad Wiksford. These emails promote additional “make money” programs that require payment, including one called the “Push Button System.” When reviewing these offers, I attempted to leave a comment or ask questions but was not able to do so. At the same time, there were numerous positive comments appearing rapidly, encouraging others to join and suggesting that anyone who did not participate would be making a mistake. This raised concerns about the authenticity of the testimonials and whether they were being filtered or manipulated. Based on my experience, I am concerned that this may involve misleading or deceptive business practices, including income guarantees, pressure to improve credit for unknown reasons, and promotion of additional paid programs without delivering any initial service or value. I am requesting that this matter be reviewed to determine whether this business is operating in a legitimate and ethical manner.
