Review about Authority Hacker: Mark Webster & Gael Breton

Watch out for Gael Breton and Mark Webster. Really shady ethics.

They kept selling their Authority Hacker course as lifetime access and then decided to shut it down.

I get that they're not gonna refund people who bought it years ago, those folks already got their money's worth from the content.

But they didn't even refund me, and I barely had any time to go through the course.

They sold the course and then turned around saying they're shutting it down because SEO has changed, but no refund, nothing.

Not even a small gesture, not even a discount as a marketing move for their new course, I wouldn't have bought it anyway, but that's exactly when you see their true colors.

Basically they said something like "we've been selling the course with outdated tactics since X date" but that they kept selling it for a while anyway "in case things turned around", weird, super weird.

Super sketchy move and bad-faith people.

Not Happy

Signed up for their course with lifetime updates. Weeks later, they closed the course, no refunds. Now they have opened up a new course AI Accelerator, wanting 1k+ a year.
