Total money lost $3,995
Type of a scam Worthless Problem-solving Service Scam
Tyler Augustus called me shortly after I enrolled in an internet business coaching program. He made me believe that he was part of the team who would help me start the business, so I paid $3995 to sign up. Then the company made a series of “training” calls, but I became suspicious when every representative who called asked for more money during every phone conversation, in order to “continue the next step”.
I called Mr. Augustus that I wanted to proceed with my own CPA instead, on any further business needs. He insisted that his company could provide different type of service my CPA couldn’t. My husband emailed him to terminate service only to be told that the service has been started and couldn’t be terminated.
My initial payment of $3995 didn’t yield any result of the “ service” , but I only received a series of phone calls demanding more payment. this is why I report the scam.
