I woke this morning and had an email from someone that I had unsubscibed from. It seems they will re-subscribe you to another list when you un-subscribe. That’s a Filsaime trick to keep you on his list.

Anyway, this opt-in spam was promoting a Russell Brunson “FREE” report, the IM-Myth.

I was actually quite impressed with the content and amazed at the stuff he had in this free report. Why? Because he was doing all the things I detest in IM marketing guru’s.

Let’s have a look:

1. The FREE report is filled with links to his pre-launch of his next program. 
2. Sign up for the FREE report and you’re dropped into another squeeze page (One Time Offer). You know, you’ll never see this offer again.
3. It’s for a valuable CD and only costs a dollar.
   1. Or Does it? You see, if you opt-in to the deal, you’re giving up all your contact information and signing up for a $40/month membership program.  The beauty of this technique is explained in the IM-Myth report he gives you for free.  I was amazed.
4. If you opt-out, he brings you to a “Make Money Giving this Report Away” page with Bonuses.

This is where I was feeling like I was getting scammed.

The first bonus was a “Make up to $264 a day with your own FREE money making affiliate website.”

It’s free, except for the $20/month hosting deal. You see the subtlety? You’ll make $264/day, who wouldn’t spend $20/month for that?

And I love the fake countdown thing. FAKE??? How can you tell? Here’s the code from his source code.

Now Free 

Then came Bonus #2 something FREE from Dan Kennedy. Is there anyone as good as DK? I’ve learned alot from his stuff, but like Russell, you sign up for his membership deal for free, I mean $19.95 for shipping, and then you sign up for another list and your automatically signed up for $40/month. Hmmm. Sound familiar?

Bonus #3- Mike Filsaime   RUN AWAY!!!!

My suggestion is pick up the free report, it is amazing and has information not available anywhere else that I’ve seen, but steer clear of all the bonuses, unless you want your pocket picked clean by the best of the best.
