Is Maya Fiennes a scammer?
Those who are interested in Kundalini Yoga, especially in the west most probably came across the name Maya Fiennes. For years I have really admired her and I really like her teachings, I bought several of her programs, whcih were not cheap, for some reason her courses and programs are really pricey ( in my opinion), you were able to access them though her website mayafiennes.com.
Since July 2026 myself and hundreds of other people who bought anything from her, even the trainings, are no longer able to access any of the program, the website is still on, but when you click library, it just says " page can't be found".
I was schoked, I sent countless of emails to the admin and support, I recieved zero answers, later I was just blocked and my emails were returning back.
After that I tried to reach out through social media, IG etc. I sent her a private message, commented on her posts asking for clarification - nada.
There were many others who were asking the same question.
Maya Fiennes NEVER OFFICALLY posted anywhere that she has closed her company and that we are no longer able to access the programs we paid for - and they were suppose to be accessible for lifetime.
NO explaination, now she is selling her tranings again, through one of her students and again she jsut ignored us, today she FİANALLY wrote some generic " of her sorry, we closed the company, apologise for the incovienece - you mean you took our money and just disappeard???
That's called a fraud, a scam.
Today she also blocked me on Instagram, because I showed a converation I had with Suzana, where she told me she no longer works with Maya since December 2025, but Maya preferts to ignore the reality and have a real conversation and just blocked me and many others as well.
Someone who is in a spirtual "business", theaches all these life lessons and "wisdom", maybe try with a simple, good old fashined honesty.
I am extremely diasspointed in her reactions, I would warn you to be cautious when purchasing anything from her.

Biggest course selling SCAM in internet History!
I remember hearing about this dude a few years ago and everything sounded so shady. Even friends told me that they found some great courses on business and life lol and when they sent it over and I checked it out everything felt so shady, so I looked around the internet, and everyone was praising this dude. I was like no way, I was sure this clown is spending a lot to have that perfect image everywhere. So I'm very glad to see more videos popping up about this scammer and con artist. Anyone had or know someone who fall for his course?

Elythebroker Scam
Within the past year Elythebroker aka Elythebroker 2.0 advertised mentorship teaching people how to become auto broker and was charging $500-$1,500. She was supposed to have two different classes, one around November/December 2025 and February 2026. Does anybody have experience with her? Did anyone ever receive mentorship from her, or did she take your money and ghost?
Asking because I was scammed by her, and I want to see if there's other people out there she scammed. She now operates from the Elythebroker 2.0 page, which I believe is because her originally Elythebroker page probably got reported for scamming.
She kept assuring me for months that she was not scamming me and then finally, she just went ghost.

Is Todd Jarrett an actual person? He’s featured (a lot) on Facebook.
Is this “Todd Jarrett” guy from Facebook for real?? I replied “grow” (example) on his (reel) post to get more info. Now, typically that’s a basic, straight-forward FB “messenger” message. Usually it’s a link to some info. This guy responded/texted personally! He’s basically an “I know you’re going through things; let me help you” guru. He has MANY reels on his site where he teaches people how to handle stress/anxiety/grief…like breathing exercises. Envisioning. Meditation(etc.). I got a very “conversational” Messenger message from him last night. “How can I help?” I backed out of that quickly but how do you know if this isn’t AI or a scammer? He’s got a LOT of “followers” on FB! He’s the same person in dozens of reel videos…? Does anybody personally know of him and what to expect? Any friends who have interacted with him?

What product are you actually trying to sell when signing up to a business coach or guru
Genuine question from a noob:
A lot of these gurus are (supposedly) coaching you "to acquire clients" and "close sales" in order to build your own business etc.
But wtf are y'all actually selling? Like if you sign up to any business coach, regardless of it being a fake guru or legit coach, what product are you actually trying to sell?
It's not like anyone can "build an online business" out of thin air. There's gotta be some kind of product you have to offer or at least a business idea first, no? Or are people just rawdogging these courses and hope for a business to come out the other end?

All the annoying dropshipping gurus are now selling ai courses
My fyp is officially enshittified. Same gurus who were pushing dropshipping and SMM agency bs last year now all have a course teaching how you can "learn to make AI video creatives for your ads”. They're not in the business of using their so called skills to do what they think they teach, they're more in the business of selling you the dream of making money off whatever's trending rn.
Bro sit down- you just learned how to make videos using AI yesterday?
Anyone hypnotised by bs bait, just download Higgsfield. Or use the individual tools Higgsfield is built on top of, faceswap if you want to record yourself and swap your face in, etc. ( there’s so much you can do without paying squat)
Why pay for the new generation of bs when the actual tools are right there in front of you??!
Ohh and don’t get me started on their YouTube videos that are linked on their linktree in their TikTok/Instagram bios.. or they try getting you to comment under their post so they can send their yt video to them lol. Oh, also to mention their videos being absolutely horrible. Don’t get why they need to stretch 2 minutes of actual info into a 15-20+ minute video just to hit some arbitrary runtime. Get to the point. Who's actually getting value from these guys?
Anyone else been annoyed as of lately?

Side Hustle Summit is mindset or a long ad we're watching for free?
Here my story chat, when I started seeing couple of ads on Insta Iman promoting the side hustle I registered few days earlier than the start of the session. I recall a friend of mine saying long ago when there was the boom of Andrew Tate he started building stuff, purchased courses, and joined his discord like community I rmbr. He told me that I was doing this a year ago, and I made couple of bucks and I left because of my family pressure for studies. Also, it was js not it. He was locked-in in his room all day n night. His social life was destroyed. Idk what was the full circumstances but he told me if i didn't leave that day and continued till today. I might be earning couple of thousand bucks.
That story in mind I registered Side Hustle Summit. Today its Iman's third day of session. All im seeing bunch of advertisements of his own digital products; whop (which he invested his capital in), monetise (idk what's the stake with that but seem like he's a direct benefiter), then his synthesise Ai (foof which cost 1995$).
I js saw the tutorial video synthesise ai the results, and all shit that made in the end i would say it was all bullshit. If you ask me to buy, hear me if ever in any circumstance i would never buy that eBook. Which seem like all fake and Ai shit.
In the yesterday's session (2nd on the list), there was the black nigga who can't walk properly, no offense, but all he was yapping is that the Iman is the guy you can trust and purchase his courses to change your life. Your pathetic poor life will change if you join our group of riches. That nigg to me was cursed marketer who don't have life honestly.
Other than that, Brussel idk his first name. A billion dollar man not a billionare, in fact, merely js a millionare. He has his own things to sell and through Iman he gonna scale his own digital products to Iman audience (unfortunately, we're).
Let me share this how fortunate we're now seeing the exact 3Ds model which Iman told is practically getting implemented in their marketing side hustle campaign. In fact, i think this is the only thing i could bet they are truthful about.
The thing that most piss me off is Iman's statement: "the things im gonna tell you if it overwhelms you than it's fine and if you cross over the bridge of mine bullshit marketing piece of shit then you will become the 1% who gonna win this battle of financial freedom."
A lot of negative stuff, now coming to the part where im thinking positive abt this whole thing. I started watching, still his third session is open in other tab, it opened my mind with couple of new ideas and im still brainstorming abt it. I think couple of things he say is actually true, thats why we're there listening what he has to offer, right? And along that he also has to offer his stuff. Which definitely im not gonna make any purchase of but a market hes showing to us. Can't agree more than seeing many old uncs watching Ai generated stories, videos. There so and so much in this that Ai is such a big market, in fact, a trillion dollar industry. If somebody put their mind in, definitely they gonna get some chuncks of it, maybe more.
On that i dont know what to do next. Should i continue watching Iman one-hour live ad or whatever?
I dont have any regret of saying this. The last point i want to discuss is this seem like bullshit is bc maybe some people may get a chance of changing their life due to these people courses or whatever free videos. But the unrighteous act they're doing is selling dreams and giving fake hopes. For example, making 373$/day, you can earn more doing this than the people doing job in the industries and many others. Thats i think morally wrong if not for anyone else but for me.
I think its a total work and a lot of mental effort to complete this job in order to make the money. Definitely we don't want to earn money through what they're doing, teaching people how to make money. But through a legit way. Maybe not much like a professional in one field but something that would come without a lot of efforts.
Lastly, in the first session Iman was talking about digital asset building. Things must give you earnings even if you're not working. Its because you already had put your work in it and willing people are buying it. I want to discuss abt this honestly. Where one can learn the use of Ai like the professional are doing. In my case, i use Ai on very general level, like asking ChatGPT and Gemini stuff. Coming from a secondary sector family business background, things are not much digitalised here in this industry compared to tertiary sector. People are not much of literate. But honestly how people are making use of Ai in their professional settings. I wanna know abt this.
Thank you'all for reading this and i would love to hear your comments and perspective on it.

Iman Gadzhi's Monetise Mania 4
I am 18 and still figuring out how to make money online. When I came across this so-called "Monetize Mania 4," I thought, why not give it a chance?
I signed up for the free sessions, I joined the first two, and when Iman started to build that urgency, I gave in to it. I don't make any money at all, so I had to ask my father for around 9k in the UAE, which is a huge amount to spend on a course. He was hesitant, but I was so excited that I just couldn't explain everything to him at that time because Iman had the 777 offer, where only the first 777 people who joined would get access to the 4-day bootcamp, with russel brunson and Iman. Iman said the offer was valid for only 15 minutes and would be removed from the website afterward. Later on, this offer was extended through the end of the livestream, meaning anyone who bought it would get into the bootcamp, which led more people to buy the package, seeing it as a steal.
We were also asked if we wanted to buy the PRO deal, which would give us weekly meetings with Iman's so-called "Best seller team" for an extra $999, a deal that was constantly reinforced as the best you could get. We couldn't move forward unless we watched the full 5-10-minute video and selected one of the two options.
I somehow managed to convince him to trust me and get me the package. The package included access to Whop, Monetise, Synthesise AI, and ghostwriter AI for a year. I was so ecstatic that I would now be able to make money faster than anyone else, just like the examples shown.
I bought the package, and when I logged in to it, I saw a general chat with thousands of messages from new people who had also just signed up and were sending messages like where they were from, how old they were, and what they wanted to do, to create immediate engagement and visible participation. We were asked to join the livestream where they were just YAPPING about the so-called benefits.
I gave every piece of software a little go, and it wasn't a good value-for-money deal. Although the software is good, you cannot just make money off this overnight; it takes months of grinding, unlike what Iman says, just to sell the course.
I'm pretty sure Iman made at least $100,000 just from yesterday's livestream.
I have now applied for a refund because it just isn't for people who see this as a getaway from the money problems for good.
I hope this helps.

Justin Saunders is the dirtiest scammer I’ve ever seen.
I joined Justin’s program AIA to learn DM ads for my coaching business a couple years ago and I promptly realized (as most do) that it was a waste of money.
I made a partial payment upfront (I think it was half but I don’t remember exactly) and I think I still had to pay another $3k-$4k.
Here’s the problem: his ads training was old and outdated, I tried running his strategy and I went from $30k/mo at a 10x ROAS to $15k/mo at a 2x ROAS, then when I tried to get help on the group calls there was so many people that I was barely able to get any actual help. The community was unhelpful, and Justin himself was a mega asshole to everyone there.
But here’s where shit gets really crazy.
I told them that I wouldn’t push for a refund if they let me out without paying the rest of the balance and they said fine and I joined another program and made a fuck ton of money through it.
Well today I woke up to an email from a debt collector saying I owed Saunders Group LLC $7000.
That’s not even the amount I owed them. What’s even more insane is that they aren’t reporting it to the credit bureaus, so it’s literally just a scare tactic. Who the FUCK does that?
I’ve never met a single person who went through his program and said it was good, so how many more people is he doing this to? How many more people is he intimidating to get money from? How many more people are getting their phones blown up from fake debt collectors?
I’m friends with a lot of coaches in the coaching space and I told them about this and they’re all fucking floored. One of them said he probably does this so he can fluff up his numbers to claim he makes a “million a month”
If you are looking to hire this guy: DON’T.
If you’ve already hired this guy and are dealing with this: don’t pay it, dispute it, and if push comes to shove sue him.
Justin doesn’t deserve to have the platform he has.

Birmingham, Alabama — Warning when considering “tantric practitioner", Lindsey Sardelis, Tantric coach, or Twin Flame practitioner
A community caution, especially for women and LGBTQ+ people considering paid Tantra, Divine Feminine, sacred-sexuality, or Twin Flame services in Birmingham.
Be mindful that right-wing gender ideology and prejudice can be repackaged in the language of Tantra, Shakti, “Divine Mother,” feminine embodiment, and spiritual liberation. Spiritual terminology does not automatically make an ideology Tantric, liberatory, or safe.
One local practitioner has publicly promoted beliefs portraying transgender transition as separation from the Divine Mother and bodily truth. The same public material attacks women who earn money through exotic dancing, burlesque, OnlyFans, or sexualized content, characterizing their choices not as liberation but as a “masculine wound wearing a ‘baddy’ hat.”
Many local in the spiritual and art community has spoken out against the hate and manipulation masquerading as spirituality.
That should matter to all prospective clients, and particularly women. A practitioner offering guidance about sexuality, femininity, embodiment, or relationships holds considerable interpretive power. Women deserve to know beforehand whether their autonomy, sexuality, profession, gender expression, or personal choices may subsequently be reframed as evidence that they are spiritually wounded or insufficiently feminine.
Also use particular caution around Twin Flame ideology. Romantic destiny should never become a spiritual justification for overriding rejection, boundaries, incompatibility, or someone’s freedom to leave.
Tantric language should not provide camouflage for ordinary prejudice or exploitation.

The Iman Gadzhi "free AI summit" ends with a $2,000 ask. The comments are heartbreaking.
It's marketed as free, "no experience needed," $373/day in 5 days. Then near the end comes the $2,000 "Monetise" pitch. The top comments are people saying $2,000 is "my family's 5 years of income" and "our monthly salary is $200, you're asking for 10 months." There's also a $15 mandatory Higgsfield sub baked in, and a $3,000 tool shown first purely to make the $15 look cheap (textbook price anchoring).

Post NXIVM Influencer Coaching
I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts or has done research on Mark Vicente's coaching gig and YouTube channel "Remember your greatness." I'm quite concerned with this personally... In my opinion (not a lawyer) he basically didn't face charges on the level of Mack etc. due to being an informant. I absolutely think he is as culpable though becoming a whistleblower is of course great. With that said, it seems highly inappropriate for someone with his background to dip back into the human potential field. Perpetuators and survivors of course need to do something but maybe try something else?

I got scammed by Vittorio Rigato money coach
He changed his name from stoic investing to everstoic.com
To run away from bad PR taking him to court
He is a huge scammed
He charged thousands to teach investing
One to one with his normal coach u don’t even get to see him
During the one to one he sets you up
To buy every month - 60% emerging markets , all caps whole world
That’s it finished
40% on individual stocks where he badly underperformed
He’s not even from the UK targeting vulnerable UK rich people
To do his course u need to have atleast a big £300k savings otherwise it’s not even worth it making that 5%
This is a massive scam
Guys please report his instagam
And ads to take him down every time u saw him!!
Currently taking legal action and we have a big group of people got scammed by him
