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 that looks for naive people to send away their hard earned money in the hopes of getting back thousands of dollars in the mail from other complete strangers.
Everything about this platform is a red flag, from its compensation plan all the way to the top where you find its completely anonymous founder only known as “Q”.
What is Cash Gifting?
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 what makes pyramid schemes illegal. Payments are promised for enrolling others into the same scheme.
This type of scheme used to be popular with chain letters.
You would receive a letter in the mail with 5 names and addresses on it and instructions that you are to follow.
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.
The premise 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 have received potentially thousands of random letters from people each with $1 inside.
What more do you need to know? You’re rich! Yeah. Not quite. As you well know, these things NEVER work! Too Damn Easy is putting a modern spin on a dated pyramid scheme aimed at finding VERY GULLIBLE PEOPLE.

How Does Too Damn Easy Work? – The Many Red Flags
The main tool is a two sided postcard pictured above. You don’t have to say or do anything except mail it out. It will do all the talking for you. It amazes me that anyone in their right mind would take this seriously.
Cost: $2k – $18k
When you arrive at the Too Damn Easy website, you’re greeted with an out of focus video showing a super close up 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.
The man behind Too Damn Easy is simply known as “Q”. There is literally nothing more you know about him. You hear his voice, but never see his face. Most of Q’s videos follow this same bizarre theme.
This is a HUGE RED FLAG. Once you enroll into the system, you are provided with the Too Damn Easy instructions:
Think about all the things you’ve been warned to stay away from when it comes to online scams. Too Damn Easy will have all these red flags popping up and more. 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 awesome postcards loaded with his persuasive mastery. You have your own referral number placed on these postcards.
- When you send these out to the masses, 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 postcards and send them out to the masses, etc…
Like many online scams, Too Damn Easy preys on the minds of the gullible and desperate. There are still those out there who believe if they read something online then it must be true.
Additionally, Q has 10 different domains he’s running this program off of.
- 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
There’s also a phone line you can call where you can listen to him talk about his sweet 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.
Too Damn Easy Buy-In Levels
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.

Final Thoughts
Do not waste your money on Too Damn Easy. The marketing materials used by this scheme are absurd and even comical. There is no product or service being sold here. There is no benefit to any potential customers.
This is the modern equivalent of sending out chain letters, except instead of sending out a dollar, you’re sending out thousands. Have any questions for me? Have you even seen a scheme this bizarre?

The first thing I research before joining any platform is the founder. So for me, the red flags are there, but the shinning object syndrome makes many people fall for the scams.
If a letter Q heads too damn easy with no face, it says a lot about the forum. And the price, $2k going into thin air just like that?
Yes, definitely a very bizarre scheme at work here. Thanks for the comment!
It’s sad to see people still fall for these schemes. Why do you think people fall easily and be gullible to these types of scams? Even myself, I used to be one of those people (but no more- luckily).
Thank you for sharing- a very well-written review. Too Damn Easy is certainly not worth looking into at all.
Agreed! Thanks for the comment!
Hi! When the owner of a platform hides behind anonymity it’s a sign he’s not serious about his business. And this platform is slightly different from the other scams in the sense it put you to send money to people you don’t know. But it follows the path of all scams in that they don’t give a believable way by which they’ll make you the millions they promise.
There is still one point I don’t understand. I imagine Q has a few friends that are the receivers of this money. Or is the money sent to actual strangers? This scam is the most weird I have ever heard of.
There is no part of this scam that works. This is 100% about sending money out and getting nothing in return. It’s beyond bad.
Eric,
This scam has been around for decades… this one and other ‘chain letter’ and ‘cash gifting’ scams. Now this unscrupulous fellow is bringing it back around to a whole new group of gullibles. So, how did you find this program that you are recommending? And how do we know it’s a good one?
Mike
I found the training community I’m a part of while doing online research on how to build a business online. Long story short, I never looked back. 🙂 The training was straightforward, delivered, and it was the best business decision I’ve ever made. If that’s something you’re interested in, feel free to check out my full Wealthy Affiliate review with my personal results. Thanks for the comment!
Wow! There are so many red flags but the ones that really get me are:
No real identity of the founder – Q?
The price of the program – really you want me to send $2k?
Multiple domains/names the program is promoted as.
No product or service in exchange for the money.
No thanks, LOL
Scott
It always amazes me how people will fall for scams like these. Thanks for the comment!
I was researching another SCAM when I came across your post. I hadn’t heard of this before, so thanks a lot for sharing this. It’s clear that Too Damn Easy is one of those scams where “Q” thinks it’s too damn easy to find people who will fall for it! In this day and age that it’s so hard to make money, I’m not really sure how they can sleep at night. They deceive people into believing that they can easily earn money by sending money… That is bizarre. Best to do your research so you don’t fall for scams like this. Thanks again.
Ha! Well put! Thanks for the comment!
You have 100% confirmed my suspicions, Eric. Too Damn Easy” is probably “Too Damn Illegal” for me to take a chance on. One thing I’ve learned is that nothing of consequence is easy. So as I read through this review, and you laid out all of the red flags, all I could say was “Yep”. Great insight into all of the scam flags, good job.
Very happy to have helped you out. It’s crazy to me that people will throw their hard earned money into such a sketchy scheme like Too Damn Easy. If you’re looking for legit training on building consistent income online as opposed to a cash gifting scam, I highly recommend checking out the training platform & mentoring community I recommend at the end of the article. Thanks so much for the comment!
Hey Eric,
Thanks for the great review and call out to people about these types of scams. It is surprising what people will invest in when they feel their back is against the wall. Keep up the great work warning us all about these types of ways of conning people out of money
John
I feel these types of cash gifting scams feed on people’s desperation. It’s a shame so many get suckered into these things and lose their hard earned money. Thanks for the comment!
Wow! This is absolutely bizarre. Do people even believe in this? This is insane. Surely enough the guidelines itself raised all my red flags. It’s so creepy! I still don’t understand why people are desperate to make money without even working hard for it.
You can never earn money without putting in an effort. People should really invest the $2000 dollars they spend on this on some sort of online business or a local business. They’d earn long term profits from them.
Thank you for the review, this will help many out their who’s falling into the darkness.
It’s amazing to me how normally smart people will sometimes do things or believe in schemes that make no sense. Too Damn Easy is too damn ridiculous, lol. Thanks so much for the comment!
Eric,
Thanks for the 411. This does seem to have “scam” written all over it. It’s so sad that people will go to such lengths to take hard-earned money from gullible people. Con artists are prevalent on the internet. Thanks for bringing another one to light!!!!
I will keep an eye out for other cons that you bring to light.
Thanks for the kind words and the comment! Yes, it’s almost hard to believe that anyone would fall for this Too Damn Easy scam. I was glad to share this and hopefully help people find much better & more straightforward ways to make money online. 🙂 Thanks again!
Oh my goodness, Eric, I can’t believe there are still things like this going on!
Yes, I remember the pre-internet days when we would get all sorts of chain letters, asking for ridiculous things like this. And then they’d predict some disaster if you didn’t respond.
Back in the day, I remember one gift exchange that had you bring cash in a brown paper bag and meet the top person on the list. It was really sketchy but the first hundred or so people actually got the money. The longer the exchange went on, the less chance it worked.
And now they’re using the internet. Crazy!!
Thanks for the heads up,
Suzanne
Yes, these cash exchange and cash gifting scams still exist. If it’s sounding too good to be true, it probably is. And in this case, it’s not only shady, but it’s very expensive. Thanks for the comment!
Hi Eric, thank you for a great review of Too Damn Easy and exposing these scammers.
It makes my blood boil when I see scams like this and people falling for these scams. The sad part is that usually, it’s the people who are desperate for cash end up being scammed and having their dreams of a better life destroyed by these heartless scammers.
A long time ago, (before the internet), when I was young and foolish, I too got caught out by the chain letter scam. Now, these scams have got more sophisticated and moved online where they can easily reach out and hurt more people.
Love your site…keep up the good work exposing the scammers!
Thank you! What you say is so true. Now the internet has allowed these scams that once had a small scope to have a global one. I appreciate your comment and insight! Thank you!
I just don’t know how people can fall for this, especially as those price points. I can see people parting with $20 (as I see people give this amount of cash daily to addicts on the street), but $2000 ?? That’s insane… I’m sure the person that started this scam is laughing each time someone forks over that kind of cash.
Crazy!
These cash gifting scams prey on the desperate and the gullible. It’s very sad for sure. There are MUCH better ways to make money online! Thank so much for your comment!
Fantastic review and video. Eric you have a well written article. The sad thing about this is people fall for this and it could be their last two thousand dollars and the saddest part about this is these guys lose no sleep or even think there doing anything wrong. It’s great guys like you who shell these clowns out and I hope many will read this as I will be sharing this link very powerful Information thank you so much.
David
Thanks for the great comment and insight, David! Agreed!
I just learned of another fake scam to avoid, thank you for that.
You’re very welcome! Unfortunately there are so many out there it becomes hard to keep track of what’s legit and what’s not. In this case, it isn’t too hard 🙂 Cash gifting scams in my opinion are the easiest to spot. Thanks for the comment!
Well, two thousand dollars buy in and you never see the owner.
I really cannot understand why people pay so much money just to get started.
Based on what you have written above it is an obvious scam.
But I would never join a so expensive program even if it had the best reviews on the internet.
You hit the nail on the head. I think the cash gifting program scams out there are crazy in the first place, but Too Damn Easy might just take the cake. There are much better ways to make money online! Thanks for the insight!
Hi Eric, this sounds like a Fairy Tale to me. I could understand the $1 but $18,000 is a lot of money. The title is telling his customers that it’s too damn easy to steal their money. I cannot believe people would fall for something like that. Ii is a Scam and I hope people will do their research before they do any kind of business online. Thanks for showing us what this person is up to.
Agreed! So important to always do your research! Thanks for the comment!
Hi Eric,
OMG! I can’t really imagine someone sending $2000 to a stranger! I could see if it was $1 like the old chain letters that there may be some people who might go for it since $1 is not so much to gamble on trying to getting back much more. This has got to be one of the most asinine scams out there. You don’t have to worry about me falling for it.
I shared your post to get the word out because there’s probably duplicate scams with lower dollars that people might actually fall for. Thanks so much Eric for the heads up on this one.
I wish you the best,
Gina
I appreciate that! And yes, $1 I can understand. Maybe even $20. $2000?? lol. Yeah I don’t think so. Sad to think people would fall for this. Thanks for the comment and getting the word out!
Awesome information, your post is well detailed like you said there are a lot of legit programs and a lot of scams that are out there. To know the difference we must and should do our homework so that we won’t be scammed. Sadly to say many have fallen for scams and have lost their hard earn money.
And then are the good guys that are legit and will help you to make real money. Your readers will love the information that you are sharing.
I appreciate that, Norman. Thank you. When I found Wealthy Affiliate I started to understand real online business. Now I absolutely enjoy writing these reviews that expose not only the obvious scams but the ones that are way too expensive for what they promise. Thanks man!
Hi Eric, I’ve got to say this one caught my eye because first of all it was offering a lot of money, and second of all the reviewer claimed it was fake!
I guess it comes to show us that not everything online is a scam, just some of the stuff, and you can normally notice the fakes.
I also had a look at your #1 recommendation Wealthy Affiliate which looks awesome.
Thank you,
Omer
Thanks, Omer! It’s important to be able to navigate through the offers that are too good to be true and those that have actual substance to them. I can’t recommend enough creating your free account with Wealthy Affiliate if making money online is something you’re interested in 🙂 If you have any questions or need any help, don’t hesitate to ask. Thanks man.
I haven’t actually heard of cash gifting programs but this article caught my eye and I was intrigued as to what they actually were so i thought I would take a look.
I can’t believe that people actually fall for this, I mean, I’m struggling for money at the moment but I’m not stupid enough to get caught out by someone who named himself after a James bond charecter!
Great review and I hope this post helps people to realise that they don’t have to fall for things like this
Agreed. Unless you’re the actual James Bond, don’t listen to Q 🙂 Thanks for the comment!
First of Thank you for this article! It is very much needed. It’s unfortunate that there are people like this that take advantage of other people when they are vulnerable. In the beginning of my online journey I was not aware of these scams and they were not much sites like yours that provided accurate reviews. So yes I did lose a few bucks with some scams that I want to forget. What’s scary are the ones that seem like they’re legit. How did you find the training platform you mention? I’m going to check it out.
What’s up, Dira! I found Wealthy Affiliate much like you, doing research. And what gave me the confidence to actually try it without fear of being suckered is there is a free try. That made all the difference in the world. I never looked back 🙂 Thanks for the comment! I appreciate it.
Thank you so much for the information! I have been checking out a lot of websites about scams because I am looking to earn some money online! I love yours. Did you create this before or after your training?
Excellent question! This site is 100% the result of the training I got at Wealthy Affiliate. Thank you for reminding me of that point. If you’re interested in great training, create your free account and try it out! Thanks for the question 🙂
Man, this stuff just makes me sick! I don’t know how Mr. “Q” can live with himself each and every day! The sad part is that so many people are struggling now and trying to find other ways to earn income and online seems like such a great way. Thank you for your review! I am so glad I saw your post before his and didn’t get sucked into his nonsense!
Amen to that. Remind me to never get you upset 🙂 lol. Thanks for the insight and I’m glad this Too Damn Easy review helped!
Many years ago, when I was desperate for money, I looked at various Gifting programs. It seemed so easy, and if everyone would just do what you they were supposed to…. I think that if I did not need money, I would not have given them a second look. It came down to figuring out how much money was I willing to lose. Sounds like gambling, right. I never did it, because the common-sense part of me over ruled.
This program absolutely is a scam, don’t waste your money. I am always amazed that people get involved! Are gifting programs even legal?
Thanks for the warning!
Great insight, Judith. I never thought of looking at it like that. It makes sense that when you’re needing money in a bad way you’re willing to take a gamble and calculate how much you’re willing to risk. It’s not that you don’t see the red flags, it’s that you’re calculating how much you’d be willing to bet despite them. Great point! And yes, with the $2000 minimum price tag on this one, it’s a wonder anyone would jump in.
I really appreciate that comment. Thank you!
Amazing review.
I had heard of these guys and now I see that my instincts were on point. It’s almost comical, yet like you said, people lose big money to schemes like this. Thank you! I hope more and more people able to read this before wasting their hard earned money.
Great find overall.
Thanks for the comment, Maxx. I hope this helps everyone realize that there are no cash gifting programs that work! Stay away from cash gifting schemes!
Good to know! I can’t believe people actually fall for this. Must be TOO DAMN EASY for Q, lol!I enjoyed reading this post though, very well written. Thanks for the information. Have you talked to any of the clients/victims? I wonder what they get for their money. Aswell, there must be a way to trace this guy via his payment methods.
Emiel
Thanks for the comment, Emiel. Unfortunately what most get for their $2000 is a 25 page ebook and a feeling of being suckered. Got to hand it to this guy. He’s smart enough to cover his tracks. There is no information available about him. I think most people who fall for this are too embarrassed to even pursue it further. It’s an expensive life lesson that’s for sure. Thanks for the comment!
Thank you for this! Some are so desperate and looking for answers that they will go against their own common sense and it takes a post like this to shake it back into them! Great advice. And you made me laugh too. Seems like you had fun with this one, bizarre as it is.
Thanks, Don. I almost couldn’t believe how out there this system is when I researched it. But at the same time, I had to remember that there are people actually looking at this scheme like it’s a legit opportunity. I really hope anyone on the fence takes a look at this and snaps out of it. There are way better ways to make money online 🙂
Thanks for the comment!
Its too bad these scams are still out there. I guess they have been around since the dawn of time and will be around long after I am gone.
The unfortunate part is most of these scammers prey on the people who are desperate, people who are on their last chance. So I guess all we can do is continue to educate like you are doing here. With help from yourself and many others like yourself Im sure we can save some people some disastrous results.
Thanks again
Amen to that. Especially for those just getting their feet wet with online business, it’s important to show them that there are legitimate and lucrative ways to make money online, not just these shady schemes. Thanks for the comment!
Cash Gifting. What a goofy scam…eh? I’ve saw this exact method before but it was only using the amount of five dollars and a list of people. You PayPal everyone one the five dollar list $5 and then put your name into the top spot and pass the list on. It is absolutely hilarious to me that someone is trying to do this make money online scam to the tune of $18,000. Too Damn Easy is definitely a scam. Good Call Eric!
Sometimes I wish I could go back in time and start the whole chain letter thing, lol. You know that first guy raked it in! lol. All kidding aside, the more and more this stuff continues the more people lose out on their money. Hopefully this article helps a few people out there to see the light. Thanks for the comment!
