    It seems that not everything in the MAPS garden is lovely. There are 2 warnings on Simon S's Maps success group FB page about negativity. Anyone who doesn't join in the general ra-ra-rahing is likely to be banned for life. Interestingly, one warning states that new members to the group will see these naughty comments and it might put them off.

    And that would never do, would it?

    You are quite right Della, but surely you mean other peoples money?

    If Simon Stepsys or Mark Ghobril are involved it's 100% a SCAM!

    Doing some research on maps and found the following. $4 roughly per pack earned (around £2-£3 uk pound), and people are qutting their jobs for this!
    I joined MAPS a few weeks ago and bought my first Credit Pack about a week ago. So far I think MAPS is complete BS. I don't know how people make money with this program. First of all when I bought my credit pack for $49.99 MAPS charged me a $1.59 fee and then VX Gateway charged me a $4.11 fee! So I ended up paying $55.69 for 1 credit pack. Here's the real catch though, you can only earn $60 per credit pack! Once you reach $60 your credit pack expires. WTF! So for my $55.69 investment the MOST I can earn from that is $4.31!

    I hear that Simon Stepsys owns a Bentley car. Has anybody any idea where he bought it?
    HERE

    or HERE

    Do you think Simon is buying his 2015 Christmas presents?

    Hi,
    I am new to this site but I am looking for information on Duncan Wood, who has been, in my opinion a serial ponzi pyramid scammer. He was with My Adverting Pays, then Banners Brokers, and then WEE, too many to mention really, but now he is trying IMPACT101, a donation crowd funding scheme, and I just wonder how someone like this can carry on and not be prosecuted or pursued by law enforcement. Below is a link to his youtube channel where he is promoting IMPACT101. Any info anyone has about this or him would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    And just like BB (and countless other, er, schemes) there are certain words that are forbidden. This has been posted on the Simon Stepsys MAPS FB page:-

    These people forever seem to not understand how the law works.

    If someone pays someone else for sex under the law it is prostitution, no matter what they "call" the transaction. If someone solicits funds for something that is legally speaking an investment as defined by the Howey Test then calling it "credit packs" means nothing. Scammers could flash secret grifter gang signs for all it matters, they are still soliciting funds for a quasi Pyramid/Ponzi Scheme.

    No matter what nomenclature they choose, the adjective gone comes to mind for any money "invested".

    re: Is My Advertising Pays / The Advert Platform A Scam or Ponzi?

    What I find the most repulsive about Stepsys (and there are many things!) is the way he worships luxury brands, and pushes them as the ultimate goal for people who join his schemes. It's just so shallow!

    It's all over his FB pages. The endless boasting. I can buy a Porsche. I have a Rolex watch (frightfuly common, actually darling, Tag Heur or Breitling are much classier). I travel first class. I go on important trips abroad. I stay in 5 star hotels. Whether he actually does these things or has these things is a debatable point. He boasts as if he has and does them, and sets them up as something to aspire to. Do people REALLY think they can be like him if they stick in his schemes long enough?

    I think he probably does get money from his schemes, but only because he pushes them so much, and often appears to be the promoter in chief (and so I assume he gets other payments from the scheme for his "work"). How much is another point entirely. Does he declare his "income" to the tax man, or is it all cash in hand? Does he keep his money in a bank or under the mattress? Does he have another job somewhere (I assume not)?

    If he is supposed to be a role model, then there really is no hope. If I was ever considering one of his schemes, the first time I saw him, I would walk out. As soon as you see him - the spivvy suit, no tie, cuffs undone, big watch, big tacky ring (not the BB one though!) - and hear him; you know exactly what he is.

    No amount of boasting or quoting from "The Wolf of Wall Street" can ever hide it. Because when he has his "cheeky pints" and peddles his wares in hired hotel rooms to people desperate enough or stupid enough to think they can make a fortune just like Simon, he reveals his real self.

    He's not even nice and amusing like Del Boy or Arthur Dailey (UK TV characters from the 1980's). He comes over to me as cheap and tacky and dodgy as hell.

    I think so anyway. Rant over!

    (PS: In the UK, a real gentleman would not boast of anything he has or does. Firstly, because it's just not done, and secondly, because to him these things are not exceptional and so do not need even speaking about. )

    I'll second the rant. What's even sadder is Septic is presenting himself exactly the way network marketing wants you to - Amway in their jewels and long dresses led the way.

    It's a disgusting, pitiful "business system" to be associated with. Everyone in it is a con man but some just don't realize it. Lol

    Meanwhile, payment problems have started - apart from those with "older credit packs" (my translation: "they got in the scheme early")

    The similarities to BB are startling.....waiting for the new scritp to be written/new version to come out.....being urged to "have faith" and "have patience". People should heed the warning signs!

    Oh, the unintended irony! Found this picture over on the SS Maps Success Group FB page.

    For anyone who does not know, this is a TV character called Del Boy from a UK comedy programme called "Only Fools and Horses", about the trials and tribulations of the Trotter family from London (Del Boy, his brother Rodney - Rodders - and first Grandad and then Uncle Albert). They started off as market traders, as people dealing from suitcases in the street, selling cheap and often knocked off gear with a dodgy background - such as fire damaged smoke alarms or leaking raincoats. The series was very popular - I still find it funny - but the characters, although slightly dodgy, were all affectionately played and clearly not real criminals. Del Boy's big saying was, "Once day, Rodney, we'll be millionaires!". And they did make it, through a very rare watch that they sold for several £million.

    They did not make it through dodgy online schemes though.

    But the irony of dear Richard Arblaster, comparing Mappers to a dodgy market dealer, does not escape me! Sure you quite meant this, Dickie?

    He's B--A--A--A--C--K



    So,

    if you have some money you want to get rid of and you never want to see it again, listen to Septic Simon Stepsys, send it to My Advertising Pays,

    BADDA BING, BADDA BOOM,

    it will disappear, without even so much as a puff of smoke.
