Your ''standards"……are certainly dropping. Just GIVE ME money!
This email was baffling - especially since it was sent in response to an email I sent GIVING AWAY a report about Mystery Shopping that people have literally paid as much as $47.00 for. I used to do it on a donation model basis and the average donation was $19.00.
But I decided to give the whole thing away to everyone. Apparently that wasn't good enough for Michael from New Zealand as he sent the following email:
Email from Michael:
"Your ''standards"……are certainly dropping,
COMPARED to the 1st….. 3. emails !!!
I actually believed @ long last, here is
someone whose UPFRONT !!!
Was I wrong……Mr Work @ Home??? ???
Here was my reply:
(You'd think I'd be more polite, but honestly I have LITERALLY taken thousands of hours of my own time to help people for no charge, answered just about EVERY SINGLE one of the thousands of emails I've received over the years and PERSONALLY helped people recover as thousands of dollars - one lady recovered close to $3,000 with my help).
With that context in mind, let me reveal exactly what I said, because some people are basically UNHELPABLE and this is a great example:
"Well, I suppose I could SELL you a $35.00 ebook on Mystery Shopping like everyone else instead
of GIVING YOU this ENTIRE REPORT which took me close to 120 hours to put together for FREE.
Would that be better? I don't know what more you want. Do you want me to just come over and GIVE you some money?
I've taken you off the list since you don't want this info any more.
Thanks.
Paul"
Now that doesn't mean I didn't help the guy I did, as you can see from a quick follow-up message I sent:
"I've helped you by preventing you from being able to subscribe again.
If someone's going to complain about quality FREE information, basically there's not much left for them.
Bye.
Paul
Oh, by the way. I've personally helped people, held-their-hand, to get thousands of dollars of money back - at NO cost. So I have no time for this nonsense."
See, I'm such a nice guy.

Wow!!
Mr. Work at Home. . . .I never realized that people truly are more stupid than we give them credit for.
Oh well.
Keep up the great work. The rest of us surely appreciate it!
Thanks!
