Is Jeff Paul's Shortcuts to Internet Millions a Home Based Business Scam?
Jeff Paul is
a self proclaimed marketing expert who was
responsible for some exciting work back in
the 90's. His most popular marketing
product was " How I make $4,000 a day
sitting at my Kitchen Table in my
underwear." He has taught many people
his marketing strategies and convinced them
that he can show them how to make bundles of
money.
These days Jeff Paul is responsible for
an elaborate and very dishonest up sell
through one of his programs. He
advertises an
infomercial for Shortcuts to Internet
Millions
for the low cost of $29.95. If you
purchase it you begin receiving calls from
various marketing company's aggressive sales
teams. They will try to convince you
to join their mentoring program which costs
up to $5,000.
They tell you that the original Jeff Paul
product that you purchased is worthless
without their expert tutelage. The
people that ended up paying for the
mentoring complained that they felt
completely ripped off. There are cases
of disconnected phone lines, refund
loopholes, and dishonest mentors.
Pretty much if you buy into the mentoring
associated with Jeff Paul's marketing course
you will be taken advantage of and won't be
able to get your money back.
I would recommend avoiding Jeff Paul
and his marketing products, even if they
weren't associated with a dishonest up sell
program, the info itself has been long
outdated and ineffective.
I work online with a method where you can make several
hundred dollars for a couple hours of work,
whenever you have time. This business is free to join and I
won't charge you anything for the
information, just let me
know where to send you the info,

Best of Luck,

I was watching the infomercial, and the thought that came to my head was "if it looks too good to be true, then it probably is" I decided to look on the net, and here I am, convinced to stay away from this guy and his programs.

I ordered the System and cancelled everything the next day after I saw they charged my account $20.89 more then what I ordered. Sneaking little phone system they have is you can only say yes, if you say no they automatically ad another option to the order. I guess I'll have to get a new bank card so they can't charge anything more.

Thank you all so much! You saved me a lot of money and a huge headache! By the way, is it just me or does the begining of this infomercial, (along with the music), sound like the begining of a bad porn movie! LOL!
Thanks again!

The only one getting rich is the crooked bastard selling the obviously bogus misleading information,yours truly Jeff Paul which must be his stage name.$39 BUCKS a pop times a million suckers is a good come up,for that piece of trash, I mean jeff paul.This scam and the surveys for cash scams are nothing but underminding criminal acts against hard working honest people trying to make a little extra cash without having to work three jobs to make the mortgage payments.

I ordered the jeff paul program through a tv info-mercial. The initial package was not what I hoped for, but @ $39.95 I had no major problem with it. I did note the un-professionalism in creating the manuals. It had not been edited at all. If this was a high school assignment..... well so much for wasting about $50.
The real problem came when I foolishly agreed to purchase the 'mentor' program @ $1,160. I have recieved many calls, all wanting me to invest more money. I have been told over and over that what I have purchased is just the starter info and that I need a 'mentor' who would walk me through all aspects of the 'training'. I was set up with telephone appointments each time I was contacted, how ever no one actually told me any thing about what I needed to do other than pay for a trainer. I closed out my credit card and at this point do not know any thing about this internet business. Aparently each person who has called me expect money from me. Since I have stopped givin... read more»

Anyone who would put there money down on something presented in this manner is crazy. The first thing on the infomercial was look at the boobs boys. On getting the boys attention they talk like they actually can count past 3. DO not waist your money on this scam because there in no such thing, The information is available for free on the Internet. There are many places where you can learn how to use the Internet for free and many of these site have ways to set up your own Internet sites for free too. This guy is a crook and thousands of people have wasted there money trusting this moron and his crew. People who have been had by this guy need to get together and put together all of the names, addresses and phone numbers of the people involved with this scam so some of us can find there crooks and make an example out of them. There are plenty of people who will show them it is not nice to cheat others and we do not need to courts or the police to help with anything we can do ourselves. I... read more»

I agree with Jimmy!!! Give me five minutes with Jeff Paul in a prison cell and I would be very happy! Jeff Paul, John Beck, Jim Fleck and Metoring of America are ripooff artists who steal the hard earned money of the American people! These fine people need to be taught a lesson! I hope that long prison terms for fraud are all in the near future for this group of internet butt pirates!!! Jeff Paul and his "programs" are total pieces of crap! Jeff Paul needs to be sent to Federal prison for his crimes and I can only hope that he gets a cellmate named Bubba whom he or one of his companies has ripped off! Hope you get ripped soon Jeff Paul by Bubba!!! Jeff Paul you totally suck!!!!

What can I say...I have seen the same bogus post by Tracy on other websites...What are you doing Tracy you so called millionaire? You really need to smell the crap you are talking. I have spoken to former Jeff Paul aka Mentoring of America employees, and they have expressed their regret for ripping off people but they said they needed a job and the money. My advice to everyone is to avoid Jeff Paul, Jim Fleck, John Beck and Mentoring of America rip offs like the clap!!! These fine people need to be sentenced to long prison terms for fraud and theft! I for one, a former victim of their bullshit, can not wait to see the day that these maggots and bottom feeders are brought to justice!!! Please everyone spread the word about this corrupt enterprise and lets save others from the misery and heartache, as well as the financial losses, that these incestuous parasites cause to the hard working people of America.

i personally have taken some expertise from jeff paul and honestly speaking i have not found any negative thing about him. I will agree to a point that someone might have not benefited from him but we simply can not deny the fact that there are spill over effects in every industry. my fiends even have taken entrepreneurship from him and all of then have benifited from it.

I purchase the package for 39.95 for Jeff Paul. They charge my visa card $74.00 and 16.95. A short time latter someone called me,they needed $500.00 to build a web site . They charge my visa 500.00. I though thats it on charges. No two days latter someone called me , they wanted $1,200. to publish my name as a corporate company. they told me i would have to pay corporate taxes 48%. I said no way.You got enough money out of me. You people did nothing but bulk my visa card.Then it will be another $500.00 and 16.95 Then someone else called me , they wanted me go fly out of state to see them and be charged $2,000.00. All they did was miss lead me and lied to me. I called customer service and told them i want my money back. Customer service told me to send back the package, and we will refund your $500.00 and your 16.95 (4) for four months. I sent back the package almost 2 months ago. They refund me 0 back.

Internet Millions by Jeff Paul is not the good option to make extra money.They will just take your money and you're not making any.When i signed up to the program that's worth of $3,295 to become an ALL STAR.They told me that they will give me 10 websites plus coaching and etc..well,i got the rest of them but they only give me 2 websites.So,im trying to cancel it and still struggling to get my money.Worst were,the products they called were Clickbank's product that you can get for free and promote independently.Stay away from Jeff Paul program,,There's always another way..don't try Jeff Paul...He will pay for his doing,God is watching him.

I received the package and was stunned at the second grade writing and the lack of editing. Are you serious? I just called and emailed to cancel the automatic enrollment into the Big League Players Club - we'll see what happens.
But in doing this research I discovered the website: the Internet Crime Complaint Center (a collaboration between the FBI and 2 other agencies). If I have any issues, I do plan on filing a complaint and highly recommend that you all do as well. May only work if you bought or tried to cancel the product online - don't know. Good luck to you all - I guess this is what used cars salesmen do at night!

Someone used our credt card for multiple Internet purchases. One call to Pauls internet millions company and a manager stated I would receive a full refund including the shipping charges. On a second call I was told I would not get the shipping charges. I attenpted to explain the situation, however the agent hung up the phone. I called back and got the same agent and his comment was, 'oh it's you again'. Lets call the agent not a customer help individual, he would not give me an opertunity to explain the issue.
I also read other comments regarding the company, looks bad consumers. My openion STAY AWAY!!!!

I purchased the program for $39.95 from an infomercial on late at night. I got the materials in the mail and looked it over then went through the "3 click" process of picking my first 10 websites. I immediately began receiving calls from people claiming they were with Jeff Paul and they wanted to help me get my websites off the ground ond onto the net. Now I was understanding that after you completed the "3 click" process that those sites were already on the web. In the infomercial they claimed you would start making money the first week. And if you canceled you would still be able to keep those first 10 websites for free. Well I have not made a cent and after tons of calls from these Jeff Paul reps I canceled which I had no problem with. I just called the number from my bank statement that showed the withdrawal. They cancelled with no hassle and refunded me one month. The other thing is... nowhere in the info that you receive does it tell you "HOW" to do what you have to do to make th... read more»

They said it cost 39.95 to order but when I looked at my bank account they had took 70.00 out.The next thing I know my "internet buisness success" was a joke now i've canceled and still i am getting calls saying I still owe money. but it never brought me any money.

Jeff Paul is a crook and scam artist. He should be put in jail. His program is a waste. I had to cancel my credit card to keep them from draining it. They will not answer phones. Never got my money back. Avoid him like the plague.

I've seen the Jeff Paul infomercials more than once. When you see a commercial stating that you need to call RIGHT NOW! or you'll be too late, that's the typical "sell stuff out of the running car" approach: "Buy now before I move on to the next town."

Basically the Scam is this:
1. The "System" sets you up with Click bank, which is FREE TO DO ANYWAY!
Then suppose to give you 10 websites per month. All they do is set you up with MORE Click banks programs, which are FREE AT CLICKBANK
2. They BILL you NON STOP, EACH MONTH for a NEWS LETTER, they NEVER SEND OUT!!
I repeat they BILL YOU $39.95 Per month for a NEWSLETTER / TELESEMINAR ,that you never get!
3. Their sales team will call you NON STOP every week and try to UP SELL YOU to other CRAPPY Products!!
The package I paid over $100 dollars for, plus shipping, was basic garbage I could get free online. It was How to browse the internet, how to sell on Ebay. THATS IT!
NOW... When you call them or write them an Email to cancel the MONTHLY Billing they will NOT RETURN YOUR CALLS. The ignore you emails and will NOT STOP BILLING YOU!
I had to go to My BANK and let them know about the FRAUD they are doing.
And It was finally cancelled and credited me back over $120 in Mon... read more»

Wow, it seems like all these Infomercials are not a good way to go. These are get rich in ventures is not the way to go. You really have to investigate them before you get involved..because if not, in the end you will get burn. So it is best to do a full research before getting involved. Please be careful.

i ordered their product for 39.95 after they called me to tell me that the tutoring would cost me at least $1500.00 i told them that i was not interested.So i sent them back my order and they emailed me confirming that i was refunded which is fine.They called me back about a week after this and i told them that i cancelled everything,i thought that was the end of it,i was wrong.Yesterday i received a phone call from some smart ass guy who wanted to know why i had cancelled and after telling him that i was not interested he insisted to continue on,i then told him that i would have to just hang up and his exact words were good luck with your poverty.Screw you i told him.I have a great job and if i can make extra money on the side then great.At least i am not behind a phone trying to make a sale so i can get a commission.Stay away from them you don't need their attitude problems

Jeff Paul's shortcut to Millions advertised on t.v. is bogus. It was $49.95 plus shipping. The info sent just told you what the good way/best selling things on the internet is suppose to be. You have to come up with a hot item and try to sell it on the internet....When the gentlemen called me, I told him I was not looking for that kind of start, he proceeded in trying to get me into a different set-up (at a cost of 6,000 to 10,000 dollars if you were the conservative type or above 10,000 dollars if you were a go getter. I actually am able to return the brochures and get my money back....

I ordered Jeff Paul's "Internet Millions" for $39.95 and they billed my credit car twice "so far". I went online to see what I could find out and found that there is a huge amount of people complaining about unauthorized use of their credit cards by the company.
Recommend that this company be avoided completely.
