Photojobz Review

This Photojobz Review is going to show you why this platform is not what you think. Don’t waste your time with Photojobz!

Photojobz Review – Is Photojobz a Scam or Legit?

Photojobz isn’t what it seems, it’s a ClickBank product requiring a monthly membership that is simply a collection of basic eBooks and useless videos. Everything it shows you is freely available online.

Let’s take a look at Photojobz and show you why there is absolutely nothing inside this service that deserves a membership fee. It’s amazing to me that these kinds of programs manage to even survive.

What is Photojobz and How Does It Work?

I first heard about Photojobz after publishing this article on how to sell your photos online. Soon after publishing, I started getting lots of spam bot comments with links to the Photojobz website.

It’s already a HUGE red flag when a business uses spam bots to advertise with unsolicited comments and links back to their website.

Since publishing reviews on online opportunities is what I do, I decided to take a look at the website for myself. At first glance it presented itself much like any other stock photography website. However, as you’ll see, it’s just a collection of eBooks and videos with freely available information in them you could easily find yourself.

How Much Does Photojobz Cost?

$1 for the first 5 days
$27/month thereafter

The one good thing I found about this service is, since it is a ClickBank product, it has a 60 day money back guarantee. Are you an affiliate marketer like I am? Check out my article on choosing the perfect affiliate products to promote!

Photojobz Membership Area

Upon arriving in the membership area, you’re greeted by a tab filled page linking to resources like videos, eBooks, and links.

The tabs include:

Sell Your Photos Video Training
Sell Your Photos Guides
Upload Your Photos
Digital Camera Guides
Digital Photography Mastery
Ultimate Photoshop Training Videos
Photoshop and Photography Guides
Photo Editing Tools
Premium Photography Jobs
Stock Photos Agencies

The screenshot above shows 2 of the 7 videos that make up the “Photo Video Training”. These are very short videos, averaging just over a minute in length.

Some of the “photo tips” included in the video training:

“Only high quality photos will be accepted into stock photography sites.”
“If you’re going to take high quality photos, you’ll need to buy high quality gear.”

There is little to nothing presented in these videos that I didn’t already know, and I’m no expert on photography.

The “Upload Your Photos” tab just opens up some links to the most common stock photography websites that you could EASILY find for yourself online, such as:

Shutterstock
Adobe Stock
Alamy
Crestock
500px
Fotolia
Dreamstime
BigStockPhoto
123RF
CanStockPhoto
PhotoStockPlus

So this begs the question, “What exactly are they charging $27/month for?”

It’s not like your monthly dues to Photojobz give you unlimited access to these other stock photo sites for free. You’d still have to pay there too. It’s really bizarre to try to wrap your mind around.

And if that wasn’t bizarre enough, check out the “Premium Photography Jobs” tab. This gives you access to COMPLETELY RANDOM job listings, such as:

Maybe there’s someone out there right now reading this in Norman, Oklahoma who’s now screaming, “JACKPOT!!!” But it seems pretty random to me and completely bizarre. Would you pay $27/month for this?

📌 TL;DR Why Photojobz Fails to Deliver Any Real Value

Photojobz is a ClickBank product requiring a monthly fee with nothing inside you can’t already find for free online.
The platform consists of basic eBooks and extremely short videos that provide surface-level advice.
Most of the “training” links you to public stock photo websites like Shutterstock and Adobe Stock.
Their “Premium Photography Jobs” tab includes random, low-quality listings that feel completely disconnected from value.
Using spam bots to promote their site is a major red flag and suggests questionable marketing ethics.
Even with a 60-day ClickBank refund policy, this platform isn’t worth your time or money.

Final Thoughts

Photojobz is not worth your monthly membership! It is filled with the most basic information that is freely available online. Photojobs only provides links and the value of what you receive for a monthly membership is highly questionable.

Got some questions for me? Did Photojobz fall short of what you expected? Have you tried similar platforms that just weren’t worth your time or money?

Leave your questions and comments in the comments section below. I always respond and I look very forward to hearing from you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Photojobz a legitimate way to make money selling photos?
No, Photojobz charges a monthly fee for content that’s basic and freely available elsewhere. It’s not a reliable way to earn income from photography.

What do you actually get when you join Photojobz?
You get short videos, eBooks, and links to public stock photo sites. None of it is exclusive or worth a monthly membership fee.

Are there better alternatives to Photojobz for photographers?
Yes. Applying directly to real stock photo sites or building your own brand offers more value without wasting money on low-quality platforms.

Too Damn Easy Review: Exposing the Bizarre Cash Gifting Scam

In this Too Damn Easy review you’ll learn about a cash gifting pyramid scheme so bizarre, you have to see it to believe it. Can you seriously get complete strangers to send you tens of thousands of dollars in the mail?

Too Damn Easy Review

Too Damn Easy is a cash gifting scam founded by an anonymous character only known as “Q”. You cannot earn thousands of dollars as promised by sending money to strangers. This scam is nothing more than a modern day chain letter, and many naive people still fall for it.

What is Cash Gifting?

Payment but no service: Cash gifting dates back way before the internet. (Yes, kids, there was this whole crazy, black and white world that actually existed before the internet.) It’s a pyramid scheme where money is exchanged, but there is no actual service rendered. This is the key factor that makes pyramid schemes like Too Damn Easy illegal.

Check out what the FTC has to say about pyramid schemes here.

Modern spin on an old scheme: The “Too Damn Easy” scheme is an updated take on chain letters. What are chain letters you ask? Well, back when people sent each other letters in the mail, you would receive a letter in the mail from a stranger with 5 names and addresses on it and instructions:

Step 1: send $1 to each of the names and addresses on the letter.
Step 2: remove the top name, move the other 4 names up one spot, and put your name and address in the 5th spot.
Step 3: send this new letter with its instructions out to 10 (or more) random people.

False promise: The promise here is that when you sent your chain letter out to 10 people, those 10 will send to 10 more, who will send to 10 more, and so on. By the time your name goes up the ranks you’ll eventually receive potentially thousands of random letters from people each with $1 inside.

Preying on the gullible: Most people with common sense simply threw away those chain letters. And that’s exactly what you should do with any cash gifting scheme. Unfortunately, the Too Damn Easy scam preys on the gullible.

Let’s detail how this scheme works and point out all the red flags to steer clear from.

Related article: Check out my article on “11 Online Business Coaching Scams Exposed!” and learn how to spot these types of schemes a mile away!

How Does Too Damn Easy Work? – The Many Red Flags

what is too damn easy about - the front and back of the Too Damn Easy postcard mailer — This is actual front and back of the Too Damn Easy postcards you’re instructed to send out to strangers.

The main tool is a two sided postcard pictured above. You’re told that you don’t have to say or do anything except mail them out. It will do all the talking for you. It amazes me that anyone in their right mind would take this seriously.

Heavy price tag: $2k – $18k. Ladies and gentlemen, long gone are the day where you may be schemed out of a dollar. These are THOUSANDS of dollars we’re talking about now, meaning a whole lot more pain when you realize you’ve been duped.

Shady tactics and unrealistic promises of revenue: When you arrive at the Too Damn Easy website, you’re greeted with an out of focus video showing a close up view of 600 stacked $100 bills. You’ll see stacks of money on the floor, stacks of money on a table, and stacks of money in a cash counting machine.

Q states this is his DAILY earnings from this program. Right away this should trigger your instincts that this is a scam.

The man behind Too Damn Easy is simply known as “Q”. When the founder of a “great business” isn’t willing to show his face or share his name, something is up. There is literally nothing more you know about “Q”. You hear his voice, but never see his face. Most of Q’s videos follow this same bizarre theme.

This massive red flag is repeated almost exactly in another cash gifting scam I reviewed called Cash Tracking System.

what is too damn easy about - the too damn easy list of instructions — As if things weren’t shady enough. Everything in these instructions screams illegal scheme!

Red flags galore: As you can see from the instructions Q provides, you will use his tools provided to reach out to completely random people to invite them in on the scheme.

To be asked to send a minimum of $2000 off to a stranger after reading a postcard like that should raise every single red flag you’ve ever imagined in your entire life!

Let’s recap:

You buy in for a minimum $2000 (Q’s levels go up all the way to sending off $18,000 if you can believe that).
You download Q’s postcards with your own referral number placed on these postcards.
When you send these out, you’re told people will follow the instructions and login to the Too Damn Easy website and enter your referral number.
They will then be closed by Q where he convinces them to buy into the Too Damn Easy system. They pay their $2000 which would go to you and then they download their own postcards and send them out and repeat the process.

More shady practices: Additionally, Q has at least 10 different domains he’s running this program off of. Many of these domains are still up and running, some come back with warnings of online scams, and some have been taken down.

www.TooDamnEasy.com
www.ExtremelyFastCash.com
www.NextDayMoney.com
www.CashGifting.net
www.CashGifting.org
www.CashGiftingProgram.com
www.CashGiftingPrograms.com
www.CashGiftingExpert.com
www.TheCashGiftingExpert.com
www.CashGiftingLeads.com

A step into the bizarre: There’s also a phone line you can call where you can listen to “Q” talk about his success. He offers up testimonials and vague “proof” of the validity of his system. He even has it set up so you can download information if you’re calling from A FAX MACHINE. I said at the onset you had to see it to believe it, right?

Even more bizarre, you also get access to a 25 page eBook that is 100% useless in my opinion. Yes, it is actually 25 pages. It explains the whole process in detail and touches on the different levels you can buy into.

How Much Money Can You Lose with Too Damn Easy?

Outright scam: I don’t usually throw the “scam” word around lightly. In fact, with 99% of my reviews, I go out of my way to let you know that, while some opportunities may be ripoffs or not worth your time, they are not actually scams by definition. They tend to always have some sort of product or service that you receive that makes them legal. This is not one of those opportunities.

There is NO product or service here! None. Zero. This is all about sending out your hard earned cash in the mail because a postcard told you to do it. And we still don’t even know who Q is!

Legit Ways to Make Money Online

Don’t fall for get rich quick schemes. There are so many legit ways to make money online and you don’t have to spend thousands to learn how to do them right.

Affiliate marketing: Affiliate marketing is my absolute favorite way to create online revenue. Connect people with the products and services they’re already looking for online. When a purchase is made through your affiliate link, you earn a commission.

Blogging and YouTube: We live in a time in history where everyday people can have massive platforms to speak from and earn from it. Have you seen how lucrative YouTube is? Don’t want to show your face? How about getting into blogging. And both can be started with zero money!

Selling digital products: Once you have a website (which is very easy to build) you can use this platform for so many things. One of which would be selling digital products. No shipping, no hassles, simply find a demand and satisfying it.

Even taking surveys is better. You’re not going to break the bank playing games and taking surveys online, but at least it’s a legit way to earn some money. Check out my Swagbucks review and see how I made $800.

📌 TL;DR Top 5 Reasons to Avoid Too Damn Easy

Classic Cash Gifting Scheme: Too Damn Easy operates as a pyramid-style cash gifting scam — sending money to others with no real product or service behind it.
Major Red Flags: An anonymous founder (“Q”), entry costs of $2,000 to $18,000, and postcard-based recruitment to strangers scream warning signs.
Unethical and Illegal: Promising payouts for recruiting others without offering real value is both illegal and morally bankrupt.
Targets the Vulnerable: The scheme preys on desperate individuals, exploiting dreams of easy wealth through deceptive marketing.
No Tangible Value: Without any real product or service, Too Damn Easy is pure financial exploitation — not a legitimate business.

Final Thoughts

Don’t lose your money getting duped by Too Damn Easy. This is a classic cash gifting scam to run from. There is no product or service being sold here. There is no benefit to any potential customers.

DreamTrips International Review: Still a World Ventures Scam?

Dreamtrips International Review World Ventures Scam

Is DreamTrips International a passport to unforgettable adventures or just another rebranding of the MLM hustle (some might say “scam”) previously known as World Ventures?

Let me tell you what I found after falling into the rabbit hole of DreamTrips International.

Is DreamTrips International Worth It or Just Another MLM Trap?

DreamTrips International offers real travel experiences with curated perks, but its MLM structure means most members won’t profit—unless they recruit hard. It’s great for wanderlusters, not for passive income seekers.

What Even Is DreamTrips International?

DreamTrips International, formerly known as WorldVentures, is a travel club that offers curated vacation packages and an opportunity to earn through what’s now a classic MLM structure. You pay to become a member, earn points toward vacations, and—if jump into the MLM side of the business—you can also earn money by recruiting others to join.

The idea? Discounted travel, VIP experiences, and the chance to make travel your business.

So… Is It Still MLM?

Yup. 100%. Make no mistake about it

DreamTrips International runs on a multi-level marketing model. That means your earning potential doesn’t just come from booking vacations or selling memberships—it comes from building a downline.

You recruit people, they recruit people, and so on. The compensation plan includes bonuses for customer sales, binary pay, check matching, and all the usual bells and whistles you’d expect from an MLM structure.

Some folks love this model. Me? Not so much. We’ll get into both sides of that coin.

Want to go deeper into the MLM (network marketing) rabbit hole?

Check out my article on “Is Network Marketing Worth It?” and see just how convoluted these systems can be. When there’s such an emphasis on recruiting and promises of not needing to do 90% of the work, trust your instincts. It doesn’t add up.

Pricing: What’s the Damage?

Let’s talk money.

When I looked into it, there were two tiers of membership:

DreamTrips Standard: Around $200–$300 to join, then $50/month
DreamTrips Premium: Higher upfront (around $600), and $100/month

Want to become an Independent Business Owner (this is the MLM part) and sell memberships too? That’s another $50–$100/month, depending on your tools and marketing access. And trust me when I say your entire life will revolve around recruiting, recruiting, recruiting.

Family? Yes. Friends? Definitely.
Total strangers minding their own business. You betcha.

So yeah… the cost adds up fast. Especially if you’re not actively traveling or building a team.

Why People Swear by It

I found some truly enthusiastic reviews from long-time members. Like Angela, who’s been a member for 8 years and raves about her family’s Punta Cana getaway. Or Caroline, who found healing and community in DTI after the loss of her mother. There’s Jeffery, who met his wife on a DreamTrip. No joke. These aren’t just customers—they’re believers.

What they rave about:

Ease of travel: No planning, just pack and go
Bucket-list destinations: From Dubai to Brazil
Friendships and community: Many say the best part isn’t the trip—it’s who you meet on it
VIP treatment: Private tours, exclusive deals, and luxe accommodations

If you’re someone who values experiences over stuff, this kind of travel type experience might be exactly what you’re looking for.

But… Not Everyone’s Dreamin’ On These DreamTrips

I don’t want anyone saying I don’t give fair reviews to MLMs. But it’s definitely important to understand the almost cult-like following they have. I’ve been in MLMs before. I’ve been to the conventions. I’ve met really cool people. But even they would admit that the word “cult” isn’t that far off.

So let’s not pretend it’s all rosé on rooftops and “Wish You Were Here” selfies, k?

There are loads of former members who call DreamTrips a scam—or at least, a very overpriced loyalty program.

You’ll find several on Reddit, sharing stories like:

“I paid for months before I could even redeem a single point.”
“They make it sound like free travel, but you’re just cashing in what you already paid for.”
“It’s just another MLM where the real money is in recruitment, not travel.”

One ex-member summed it up best: “80% of people earned nothing. 19% earned a pittance. 1% got rich. I don’t like those odds!”

Not good..

What Happened to WorldVentures?

WorldVentures filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2020. Financial issues, lawsuits, and unpaid commissions piled up until it all collapsed.

This is the typical MLM life cycle. People rant and rave about how unbelievable the MLM is, then after a few years you check the annual income disclosure statements and see that almost EVERYone is making $0, (as in zero, zilch, nada), with a fraction of 1% earning what would be called full-time income.

In 2021, World Ventures reemerged as DreamTrips International after getting bought out by Verona International Holdings. The new brand promised a fresh start and better systems. But it’s still based on the same fundamental MLM structure.

Is DreamTrips a World Ventures Scam?

Technically, no. Legally, DreamTrips isn’t a scam. They deliver real vacations. You do get travel points. And yes, you canearn money if you recruit others.

But ethically? That depends on how you feel about MLMs.

If you’re joining because you love to travel and want curated getaways: legit.
If you’re joining to make money without putting in serious effort: keep dreaming.

Let me chime in with some some common sense about travel. I’ve traveled all over the world. And you definitely don’t need any travel club to do it. Monthly membership dues from a travel club like this add up. So when you brag about your great travel deal you got through the travel club you pay hundreds to monthly, don’t forget to count all those dues in your expense column.

Trust me, you can travel all over the world cheap without any MLM travel club.

📌 TL;DR What You Really Need to Know About DreamTrips (Before You Join)

DreamTrips is the rebranded version of WorldVentures, which filed for bankruptcy in 2020 and relaunched under new ownership in 2021.
Yes, it still operates as an MLM—you can earn commissions, but only if you recruit others and build a downline.
Membership isn’t cheap: expect upfront fees around $200–$600 and monthly payments of $50–$100.
Fans praise the community, curated vacations, and luxury experiences, while critics call it overpriced and recruitment-heavy.
You don’t have to recruit to travel, but without building a team, you’re not earning—just spending.
Legal? Yes. Scam? No. Smart move for most people? That’s where it gets tricky.

Final Thoughts

DreamTrips delivers real travel perks, but the MLM angle makes it risky for anyone expecting easy income. It’s ideal for group trip lovers—not so much for business builders.

If you:

Are a social traveler who likes group trips
Don’t mind paying monthly for curated vacation options
Are comfortable with MLM business models and recruitment

…then maybe this is your kind of gig.

But if you:

Prefer booking your own travel deals
Don’t want to recruit anyone
Want actual passive income, not just a “side hustle with strings”

…then there are better ways to travel and better ways to earn.

So… would I personally join? No chance. But I get why some people do. If curated, all-in-one travel with a social twist is your jam, DreamTrips might deliver the kind of wanderlust you’ve been craving.

Just go in with your eyes open—and maybe your wallet guarded.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is DreamTrips International a legitimate travel club or a scam?
DreamTrips is a real travel club that delivers curated vacation packages. However, due to its MLM structure, critics often call it a pyramid-style model. It’s legit—but controversial.

How much does it cost to join DreamTrips International?
Expect to pay a one-time fee of $200–$600 depending on the tier, plus a monthly fee of $50–$100. Those wanting to earn commissions through the business model must also pay to become an IBO.

What are the best non-MLM travel membership alternatives?
If you’re looking to travel without MLM strings, check out TravelZoo, Scott’s Cheap Flights, or budget group trip services like G Adventures and Contiki.
