Matt Driscoll My Online Business
Not that Matt Lloyd fella, with his Online Business Empire. Matt Driscoll. However you never know, they could be one and the same. I wouldn’t call it “My Online Business” I think I would call it something like ” My Online Bottle Of Hot Air I’d Like Sell Ya ” Much more appropriate.
It all began ( as it often does ) with an email I received from some guy named Charles.
A. I don’t even know who this guy is. Why would he send me money. I don’t even have a bank account. ( I stash my cash under my mattress. Heh Heh )
B. and C. Both of these links led me to the same place. A long ass boring video ( I timed it. That sucker ran for 31 minutes. I kid you not ) about how I didn’t have to do anything, work less than an hour a day ( mostly just counting my cash apparently ) Showed awesome pictures of the fancy cars I will own, the upscale mansions, I am about to live in, my embarrassment at the piles and piles of money ( more pictures ) that I will fill my swimming pool with. You know the usual scammish B.S.
Why Matt Contacted Me
First of all, only 70 people are receiving this special offer. I have been selected because Matt’s close personal friend ( no name given. Go figure ) has vouched to Matt on my behalf that I would be perfect to share this program with. You know I looked in the mirror today and I’m positive I didn’t have the word “gullible” tattooed on my forehead.
It’s All About Matt
The video continues with Matt’s personal story. He is married (to a beautiful woman). They love each other deeply but are continually fighting about money. Their outrageous debt, their ridiculous amount of bounced checks ( complete with pictures of course ) his wife getting ready to leave him. Then to top it all off his identity gets stolen!!! Things only get worse when he has a car wreck that destroys his cab. ( only source of income )
After that , his meteoric rise to the top of the heap. His wife loves him again. no more financial woes. plenty of money in the bank and life is good. ( complete with pictures, more cars, more mansions, more piles of money etc. ) I am bored out of my skull and to tell you the truth it’s becoming a bit redundant. Still it’s all about Matt.
He Admits His Greed And He Wants More Money
Here is where the 70 chosen ones come into play. The more money we make, the more money he makes. Straight and to the point. At least he is honest in his greed.
It truly amazes me how so much nothing can consume so much time to explain. I am in awe. Plain and simple this is a scam, and not a very good one at that. So let’s look at a few pictures to illustrate this point.
The disclaimer located waaayyyyy down at the bottom of the page. Check it out. It is quite the ringing endorsement.
This has totally instilled me with confidence. ( Thinly veiled sarcasm )
An excerpt from the video:
The $500 is an empty promise. The money is awarded to you if and only if you use this system for thirty days, and don’t make a single dime.
He can’t keep the scam straight either. After you give up your email address, off we go to this page:
Notice how we have gone from 6 steps to 21 steps all of a sudden like. How anybody falls for this I’ll never know.
And now we come to my very favorite part. The testimonial of this particular individual.
And here he is again “testifying” for the “Secret Millionaires Society” Are you wondering why I circled his eyes? I did that because I wanted you to look closely at the reflection in his glasses. Click on each picture to get a closer look. Now tell me, how is it the reflection is the same when clearly he is in two different places.? I’ll bet you anything it is the reflection of a teleprompter.
Here is the address to this “website” if you want to view it yourself www.myonlinebusiness.com and God help you if you fall for this cheesy piece of cinematic advertising because he is the only one who can. I have done my part by warning you.
If I said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times, making money online is a skill that needs to be learned not something that can be given to you on a silver platter after paying a small fee. So with that in mind I have a serious proposition for you.

Hi Polly. Yeah, I just finished reading about My Online Business, and I knew all along it was a scam, I was just reading it for s**ts & giggles!! It’s amazing how some people are getting more convincing with the scams, and yes, I wanted my $500 for listening to the BORING video as well. But, of course, no money was paid out. I’m hoping your information o Wealthy Affiliate will help me. I am disabled and not able to work your typical 9-5 job, and I REALLY need extra income. Here’s hoping!!!
You go girl!
Confused
About?
How do I get stared? I watched the video and after the arrow for payment facing down it ended ended how do I pay the security fee to show that I am not a floater of 49.00
Well Elisa…I’ll start with the glaringly obvious: there is no video here to see so I think it would be fairly safe to say that you’re asking me about the scam itself. At any rate. if this is the case, I cannot but more importantly will not “help” you get started on something you will most likely regret.
How can I be sure that what you’re offering isn’t a scam as well without me having to watch another 35 minute video?
That depends. One lady thought I was actually offering this scam. That what you think?
I clicked on the link and at the beginning of the video he said it was a way to make money without MOBE but clicking the link under the video, sends you to register at…(drum roll please?) MOBE.com. I looked up Matt Driscoll and the only results I got were for a basketball coach and this site. It’s nice that you came out with the truth but just for a pitch? What happens say we sign up for your program, do we start generating money in the first week or is it just another training method that takes forever and costs a bunch of money? Is it a pyramid scheme?
I do understand your suspicion about my “pitch” as you call it. I’ve been in that position myself.I mean let’s face it, schemes and scams abound on the internet. They’re everywhere. Everybody’s pitching one get rich quick scheme or another.But let me tell you something about the scammers, they want money. It is all they strive for. Nothing is off limits.
They attack weaknesses in human nature(greed) and use this knowledge to manipulate, and deceive in order to swindle money.
Many, many people are attracted to the lure of easy money. Everybody wants to make huge amounts of money in a short period of time. Oh yeah, they want it with little or no effort on their part.
So money’s the thing. We want lots of it, we want it fast and with the least amount of effort possible. And they promise to give you that. Rarely do they deliver on that promise. They want their money up front, Without givig specifics as to what you have to do. Basically, they don’t even try to dazzle with brilliance, they skip that step. They right to baffling you with bullshit. It’s amazing how long a person can talk about the easiest way to make money fast, without ever actually lifting a finger.
All throught the testimonials, the money falling from the sky fluttering down aroud you gently. Enveloping you in riches and a lifestyle most people dream of.
They try to reel you in so that by the time he’s finished you can’t see clearly because all you can see are large dollar dancing before you. Then when you are all but salivating over the imaginery money, they hit you with the low,low price for your financial security.
The secrets will not be revealed until you pay. Only then are you allowed to enter the lair. All will be revealed.
Puh-leeeeease!
Millions of people are mistakenly under the impression that geeting rich on the internet is easy. They don’t think they have to work for it.
So…the difference is, nobody is going try and blow sunshine up your nose at Wealthy Affiliate. Also everyone who cares to, is extended an invitation for a free trial, to enable them to make an informed decision. Not blindly hand over a credit card and pay whatever only to discover nothing but empty promises.
I’m not making any promises but I can guarantee you won’t make any money in the first week. These things take time if you want to do it right. When done right, you can indeed develop a sustainable income far outweighing the cost.
I’m also not going to spend all day trying to convince you. You’re intelligent. Figure it out. If you’re interested, then please, be welcome to the WA community. If not, then I wish you well in all future endeavors.
Just one big fking scam oh by the way how do you get the guaranteed 500 for watching this phony as fuck video ? Bullshit to the max fuck this to all the online scammers you should buy yourselves a $%#@* and go f*&# yourself!!!
MY My Bobby, such language. This is a PG site after all. You don’t get the 500. I asked for it. They told me I was to give them 500 to invest and I would then get 500 back. Pretty stupid huh?
Hi, Polly… you like a professional detective, i like the way you explained this scam, you make people aware and be more careful if we want to search the right place to learn about make money online
Henry,
I try to experience a scam as much as i can without becoming entangled in their web of lies. It is very important to conduct research on anything you spend money on. Especially if you are investing in your future. Thanks for stopping by.
