IMPORTANT: One thing this post is showing that the site Certified Cash Club site is using images of models from photos from iStockPhoto and putting DIFFERENT names to the images of those models. You should NOT assume that the models agreed to have their images used in the this way. In fact, the probably DID NOT.
That ALSO means that the names shown for the images of the models in THIS post are NOT the true names of the models in the images. I am simply pointing out what the Certified Cash Club site has done.
Craig Davidson - A.K.A. as IStockPhoto 7068613
Recently I was asked to take a look at a product called Certified Cash Club – a product allegedly created by Craig Davidson (also known as IStockPhoto photo 7068613).
Certified Cash Club makes the bizarre, yet seemingly excited proclamation that it has been seen on Twitter, YouTube, Digg, StumbleUpon, and Squidoo…all of which are sites just about anyone could load information up to. In other word, making a claim like that at the top of a sales page is tantamount to saying either “I have no idea what I’m talking about” or “I hope you are too stupid to realize that none of this means anything at all”.
Of course CertifiedCashClub also seems very excited about “being seen” on FaceBook, AOL, MSN, and Yahoo. As usual “HOW” they were seen isn’t explained. Did they possibly BUY ADVERTISING on those sites to “Be Seen”?
Of interest is the fact that they didn’t list “Google” in the “As Seen On” logo at the top. I mean, I just searched on Google and I “saw” CertifiedCashClub.com “on Google”…I also “saw” a picture of an Astronaut “on Google”:
I "see" Certified Cash Club "on Google"...I "see" a picture of an astronaut "on Google"....
Thomas Bennett - a.k.a. iStockPhoto 4253221 loves all things certified
Thomas Bennett has ventured outside his comfort zone as a stock photo on the stock photo site iStockPhoto and worked his way up as a collector of all things certified.
Here he sits with his certified family in front of his certified home posing for a certified photographer. The youngest one is technically not certified yet, but she does have a certified binky (pacifier).
Michael Thompson - a.k.a. iStockPhoto 7256206 giving his "I got me some certified cash" look
Michael Thompson, also a regular of stock photo site iStockPhoto recently revealed that his glasses are fake and that he maintains his dazzling white pearly teeth by eating certified organic fruits and vegetables.
Oddly, right above the two testimonials that have images that can be found on iStockPhoto is the statement:
“Now I do know that every other formula, system, method, etc. out there only tells you how to generate money using only one not too useful tactic. WELL, YOU HAVE BEEN LIED TO AND RIPPED OFF.”
What is the Certified Cash Club refund rate?
Also, another fact that seems to be in dispute is their refund rate. For example, according to the image below, Certified Cash Club claims that their refund rate is 4%, but CBEngine.com claims the refund rate on Certified Cash Club is 33.21%.
So, let’s review what we have so far:
We have a photo of Craig Davidson, the alleged founder of CertifiedCashClub sitting on the stock photo site iStockPhoto.
We have a photo of Thomas Bennett and his family – the first person giving a testimonial for CertifiedCashClub.com - on the stock photo site iStockPhoto.
We have a photo of Michael Thompson – the second person giving a testimonial for CertifiedCashClub.com – on the stock photo site iStockPhoto.
We have CertifiedCashClub claiming that their refund rate is 4% and CBEngine.com claiming that the refund rate on Certified Cash Club is 33.21%.
And we have a picture of an astronaut on the moon to demonstrate that the words “as seen on” can’t be properly interpreted without proper context.
What should one believe about Certified Cash Club’s claim of their average member’s earnings?
Certified Cash Club's Income Claim
I noticed that Certified Cash Club’s optin form includes the statement “MEMBERS EARNING AN AVERAGE OF $253.91 EVERY SINGLE DAY”. If I am interpreting that claim correctly it would mean that they are claiming that the average member earns $92,677.15 per year.
Should you believe this claim? That’s up to you. I am merely presenting my observations of various elements of the sales page that cause me some concern. They should NOT be construed as absolute proof of anything, but merely indicators that you may want to include in your decision making process.
What would I do personally if I were considering a product like Certified Cash Club? I’d pass on the product. There are simply too many indicators that cause concern for me.
