I’ve got 800,000 bridges to sell
This is a scammer’s goldmine.
TIL this fuckface has an online university
Jesus Christ he has 800,000 users. That’s so depressing.
There are 800k names that’ll never get a job offer from me.
800,000 lusers*
800,000 people fell for that scam? Fuck me, that’s a lot of stupidity…
At 50$ a pop it’s 40 000 000$ Grifters gonna grift ! Sometimes I hate that I have morals stopping me from exploiting those morons.
It’s worse than you think; it’s $50/month!
Now part of the problem is we don’t know the average membership length, and it’s further complicated by the fact that the Tate brothers ran the ‘school’ like a pyramid scheme where enrolling another member earned you a kick-back (which is why so many random channels popped up a few years back sharing clips).
So pulling random numbers out of my arse, if the average membership period was ~6 months and they had ~30% operating expenses (servers, bandwidth, kickbacks etc.) they could have netted ~$168m from this scheme.
I too, share your self-loathing in my morals preventing me from exploiting these absolute morons.
i think registration and actually sending any money will be two separate steps, but it is still lot of dumb people.
Maybe most of these are bots? And maybe paid by the owner to generate traffic?
Yup, was one of the first bits I thought of too…
I still paraphrase his “your stuff is shit, my shit is stuff” to this day… 😅
We really need someone to fill the massive shoes he left behind - an individual able to call out all the egregious bullshit.
”Money making is a skill,” the website states. “We will teach you how to master it.”
step 1: convince people to pay you 50$ for access to your deranged ramblings.
there is no step 2
Data brokers will now have a new set of identities for Insecure White Male with No Financial Literacy.
Don’t forget easily manipulated
and probably broke, considering that these are specifically those who missed payments
Thats the important part ;)
800.000 people?
Talking bullshit seems to pay very good
<edit> yes not everyone was paying, but still: </edit>
If accurate, the site at minimum would generate upwards of $5,650,000 every month.
Omg 800,000 people (presumably mostly young men) signed up for that bullshit? Have we failed so many that they will seek help with the top douchebag himself?
According the “hustler’s university 4.0” website you can get in for as little as 49USD (which is a steal, when the posted before price is 147USD)
Imagine scamming 8x10^5 for just 50USD each, I mean it’s not like a considerable criminal investigation will get started for 50 bucks, but the chinless douche is walking away with 40million, from that scam alone. And I’ll bet that there will be special courses with an additional charge, as well as merch and PPV webinars. Safe to say it’s not just 40million Tate has scammed kids for.
It’s apparently $50 a month, but based on one recent video from a guy who looked into this, there’s apparently a hard sell to “commit” to the program for a year, and if you do commit, it won’t let you cancel or refund, because you committed to the program, bro, that’s a sacred vow, bro, you can’t violate that, bro.
My friend’s brother almost fell victim to this cult. If he’s anything to go by most members will be vulnerable idiots.
It’s good that people are able to get out of it, though. How’s he doing nowadays?
Last I heard he’s just starting to admit he needs psychiatric help.
Who is this Andrew Tate guy? By his name, I can only assume he is some kind of potato
He’s one of those “Alpha Male” influencer who’s extremely misogynistic
This guy sounds like an incel. Don’t potatoes have sex?
Irrelevant. Tate doesn’t just want sex. He wants ownership of women and a cult following of sad, little men. He’s methods and motives are exactly the same as cult leaders.
That’s too bad.
Time to see if people I suspect of being on it were on it.
It’s interesting, the first time I saw a picture of Tate I only saw cringe, and that has not changed.
My guy looks like a mudokon (insulting for them, I know…)
