So glad i watched yourvideo. I was considering signing up for a course. I had no idea there were such big scammers in the POD business. thanks for sharing. thanks for being so cool. We appreciate you.
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is. Many people have made guesses, feel free to research whoever anyone has guessed further on google if you want. Thanks for commenting and watching! really appreciate the support
That is the first person that came to my mind and I'm only 2 minutes into this video -it's definitely Dylan Jahraus she seems like a snake! She sells flower arrangements and swindles people people out of their money with her overpriced $5000, $7000 dollar courses.
He’s talking about Dylan Jahraus. I can say because I’m one on the ppl who fell for the high pressure sales tactic of the sales call. Def regret the purchase after about 1/3rd through the lessons.
its dylan. my brand new shop was closed with no listings and still pay. i was pretty gullible. hate seeing her face show up on my youtube channel b/c she conned me.
Same here, I can't stand her. I'm currently paying $444 every month. I've already filed complaints with the FTC and BBB, and I’m planning to contact the San Diego Police Department, where she’s based.
Kudos for doing this video. I think one thing that stuck out to me being in Australia, is the second interview the guest kept referring to dollar amounts in US dollars. In case people don't realise, the Australian dollar is a considerably lower exchange rate. $US15,000 is $22,237.38 Australian Dollars! I agree that paying for courses is not a bad thing, but you HAVE to deliver on value! This was a well made, researched and fair piece of reporting. Well done sir.
Using the military wife card shows her true character. My daughter is active duty. When I realized how much Dylan was using her husband's service for profit, I stopped watching. It's insulting and wrong on all levels. It's just part of her con.
I once booked a consultation call with one of her team members, and I didn‘t get any information about what to actually expect from her coaching. After contacting them again via email after the call, I was sent the pricing for her coaching, and I have no words about that. I laughed in shock. That is when I knew she was a scammer…
Feel bad for everyone scammed. Think a good starting point is using all free training on the platforms directly. Any expert needs to be vetted for any training that costs money. Thanks for doing this video.
You're doing the Lord's work. A while back I also looked into this, had correspondence with the course creator and was quoted an exorbitantly high amount I couldn't afford. Luckily I didn't schedule a call, glad I didn't or I would have been scammed for sure!
Yup looking at the comments and the thumbnail I knew exactly who your were talking about. After watching a few of her videos after first getting started I had a strong gut feeling not to listen to anything she was saying. I just couldn't trust her. So glad I listened to my gut...
I also had an immediate gut response to this woman's youtube/instagram ads. Watched an episode and knew instinctively not to listen to anything she had to say.
I also figured out it was that Dylan person, although I didn't know much about the courses, bc I wouldn't be able to afford any, so didn't even look into them, but watched her videos to learn some stuff. Now I worry I applied some of her advice that might be wrong or suspicious by Etsy. I'm glad I live in the EU and we have the 14 days online buy protection and some other buyer protections in case of skillful scammer. Good job, Shimmy, I've been watching you videos for over a year (or more?) and have learned a lot. Please give more recommendations of good coaches out there that one can trust.
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is. Many people have made guesses, feel free to research whoever anyone has guessed further on google if you want. Thanks so much for watching my videos! I would recommend. Philip anders, detour shirts, chris heckman, meg heckman.. .
There's a special place in the depths of hell for Dylan. To know that she's a mother, and is still willing to stoop this low, says all there is to say. She's the slimiest worm, and her nonsense is what Netflix documentaries are made of--I wouldn't be surprised if I see her there one day!

@@shimmymorris1 fair enough. Basically at the end of the day, run the opposite way if they're charging in the thousands of dollars and getting you on a contract. One POD guy out there called Ronnie Mckenzie, is also charging over 10k for his courses.. Yuck..
Just wanted to say that everything described in this video is true and worse. I have had personal awful experience with “Emma”, I don’t even know how it’s legal and she is still operating. The company used to have a really bad bbb rating and in 1 month it was flooded with 5 star reviews from fake customers after a complaint was filed to bring it up. If BBB wouldn’t do anything who else should these kinds of people be reported, it’s criminal!
My experience ended with some kind of "free" webinar that was suppose to include a free consultation; BUT, in order to have your "free" consultation you had to qualify & commit to paying for future training or something like that. It was very high pressure.
She's also a student of Alex Hormozi thats where shes learning all these high pressure sales tactics. Which is fine if you are actually providing value. Her event in Orlando is just another opportunity for her and her team to pressure people into paying for her programs.
Yes it’s Dylan! I really feel like I was deceived into buying this course because she said she sold you the complete system of how to make multi six figures on Etsy. What she gives is basically a loose blueprint of what she did to make 6 figures in 1 year and this is why it’s not very helpful to POD or digital. I really feel this course preyed on my pain points of wanting a better financial future which is great marketing from her pov and borderline predatory. I want to start a Reddit community just for support. I’m still stuck on the payment plan and want advice!
I’m in the same situation as you. I tried to get out of it but was told I couldn’t. I wondered if I could call my credit card company and stop payment.
@@tmslater12 I talked to someone else who was in our situation and they told me that Dylan doesn’t have your social security number or ID so there’s no consequences of refusing to pay via contacting your bank. However I’ve been paying for more than a year so I’m like should I just finish it off? I want a refund of all my payments!!!!
@@tmslater12 just went back to Reddit to read about her. There are people who have been threatened with collections. I’m not sure if this hurts your credit.
If you are on a payment plan on a credit card. Close that credit card. Years ago when I was thinking I must be missing out. I bought a course and it was very expensive. It was pure puffery and no substance. I requested to stop the payments. I didn’t ask for a refund by that they release my future payments. It was refused. I closed that credit card and 9 years later I still get emails that I will have payment taken out. It’s an email they send before a transaction like other subs you might have. I wrote them back then and said if you try to sue me I will go open a RUclips channel and give people all the details and sue you for scamming people. It is not in collections and they went out of business during the pandemic. I don’t feel sorry for these people. Just stop paying them. Send an email and tell them you will report and expose them. It’s not an idle threat. I would site all the possible trouble they will have. She has Facebook ads all day long. RUclips will ban her, fb will ban her, threaten you will go in every fb group and expose her. The fear of exposure is motivation enough to stop taking money. That’s my opinion. In future it is best to buy monthly like shimmy has. Always pay with PayPal. PayPal you can stop subscription inside of PayPal. I used kittl one month and did not like it. So I opened my PayPal app and unsubscribed. They sent me an email the next month saying my payment didn’t go through. I wrote back and said I cancelled. The emails never stopped. One email 2 months ago I wrote back do you not understand English? I canceled go away. Then I blocked them.i know I talk too much but I feel for you. We have been there. Only subscribe through PayPal and only a monthly program. Never commit to a course
Mate... you are not exposing anyone if you dont tell his name. If you want to protect newbies like us from getting scammed you need to give his/her name
Her. It’s likely Dylan. The point is not to commit to such an insanely priced course without checking the reviews from people who have used it on reddit or something.
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is. Many people have made guesses, feel free to research whoever anyone has guessed further on google if you want. In terms of protecting people, i made sure the video highlighted important factors to be aware of when looking for a course to buy. 1. Don't spend thousands and thousands on a course 2. Always research and google the person and due your due diligence 3. Don't ever buy over the phone in order to "save" money 4. If you're aware of this video and what's out there, you should already be better off I hope this helped :D
@@ma2perdueHeather sells PoD. Dylan doesn’t. She sells supplies. The customers were saying the course is only beneficial for those selling physical items, so I think it’s Dylan rather than Heather or other PoD females with Etsy courses
@elliecandle773 it was instantaneous. I signed up and then I somehow felt like I needed to do a search and found reddit subs about her and then I explained right away to the bank operator before it cleared
Hilarious! The moment I saw this title I know it would be about Dylan. I had a brief encounter with her (well her insta but pretty sure it was a sales person). I backed out after finding out the costs! 😵💫 I was quoted $8k
These stories are both horrifying and heartbreaking. These people should report her to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)!! The BBB is really just a glorified Yelp, but the FTC can shut her down and get restitutions for her victims. Not only that… if she’s crossed certain lines, the FTC can refer the case to the DOJ. And not for nothing but these are some big numbers being thrown around, and her victim pool obviously crosses state lines, maybe even international borders. Report her ass to the people that can do something about it!!
@@Rowena-s4z Good for you!!🙌 If you know other people who were also scammed, you should encourage them to do the same! They’ll review it regardless, but when a cluster of people with the same complaints starts to develop, it shows a pattern and it will get more attention. Good luck!
@@janedarc7731 Yes, I know of others who have fallen victim to Dylan as well. I’ve been speaking with someone who has been taking Dylan's course for over a year and hasn’t sold anything. She paid a lot of money, and the course has proven to be completely useless.
Its DEFINITELY Dylan Jahrus. I feel like a sucker. $5000 later. I was offered one on one coaching-never happened. It was group coaching with various coaches. I got a surprised email after 6 weeks saying my one-on-one coaching had ended but I could pay for more. Asked for my money back-didn't get it. Also, the contract is not equitable. It doesn't say what its going to provide to the student but everything about protecting their right to collect money. I don't know how people like this live with themselves because I think many people who start n POD are looking for a way to make money when they are strapped for cash and she knows it.
I've never even heard of her, lol even with all the videos and creators I've seen. She's never even popped up in my recommended which is how I found Shimmy. I just looked her up and, idk, but her face has an AI look to it. I would never pay for a pod course. Too many amazing free teachings online to choose from.
Tbh I tried watching what I think is this person’s videos and couldn’t stand her delivery/style. It felt pompous. I never made it through a full video without being bothered by it. I tried a few times. 😅 Maybe it’s intuition lol There’s far better RUclipsrs who actually give out useful information in a relatable, easy to follow (and easy to listen to) format for free. I follow those and never had to pay for any info. I was able to create a profitable pod business with those. I do this full time and it’s only my second full year. Thanks for warning people and giving us good info. ❤
Why are people so in need to get rich fast.. they are selling the dream of get rich fast and people are ready to pay 5000 for a course when thers so many resources online to learn anything. Its just a shame.
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is. Many people have made guesses, feel free to research whoever anyone has guessed further on google if you want.
I looked up this Dylan Jahraus person. Every "course review" was a client testimonial short SHE posted herself, [which means she must be offering "something" in exchange for those video shorts,...(which if actual is a YT violation.)] But the complete lack of contrary opinions, about this course/coaching, was itself a giant red flag for me. It wreeeeeaks of SEO manipulation, behind the scenes. How does this happen without YT "algorithmic-cooperation"...?? I've NEVER seen ZERO conflicting opinions on anything online. Shimmy, Are you "scared" of this person's wrath? Is she somehow destroying other creators' careers/stores/reach, who oppose her?? Etsy, YT, etc., Official Complaints should be levelled en masse,...and a class-action lawsuit, by those hurt or ripped off, should be considered.
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is. Many people have made guesses, feel free to research whoever anyone has guessed further on google if you want. for now hopefully this videos warns people what to be on the look out for
@@shimmymorris1 You've done a commendable job maintaining your Ethics surrounding this person,...which I hold in high esteem. It gives "the person" a true opportunity to do the right thing and correct their behavior on their own. God is in charge of Judgement, not Us. Well done, Sir.
I got the same issue. I call my bank to report the issue. Cancel my bank card bc they got my card number 😢 feel stupid after. I hoped seeing your video before. But still luckily has not spent much just one payment bc it was monthly payment for the cheapest package 😢 which is a hundred something. By the way they ignored and ghosted me when I asked for refund so I go straight to the bank
I commented on her video of why she boasts about her successful Etsy store but when I check the store she barely makes 5 - 10 sales every 2 weeks in her Etsy store and she deleted my comment and hid me from her channel.. Yes it’s Dylan Jahraus!
@elliecandle773 idky shimmy deleted my previous comment, but I said I know her Etsy shop obviously I'm not gonna reveal it. And I track her profile sales to see how much she sells a week etc.

I agree it's Dylan because she charges $10k for her course and her stuff is outdated. Lots of complaint about her. She has a large RUclips following and she goes after who said things about her course that's why no one want to come out to say it. That's why he said he cannot reveal this person name because she will sue. We already know who she is.
As soon as the air quotes came out, I first thought, "Is this Dylan" but figured it wasn't her, since it was so difficult to get into "this" person's course. But after reading some comments, perhaps my initial thoughts were right. All the salesy calls and such to get into a program - was really confusing - why make it hard for people to sign up? I never actually looked into Dylan's course because I never trusted her enough when I watched her videos. But figured since she mentions it a lot in her RUclips videos that there was probably a page somewhere to sign up for it. I now have less respect for her, if this is in fact how she runs her business. People should not be allowed to do this to! So Shameful. 😖
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is. Many people have made guesses, feel free to research whoever anyone has guessed further on google if you want. People do calls when it's such an expensive program as it's easier to convert sales on the call

Who in their right mind would even entertain the idea of forking over that kind of money for an Etsy course? What is wrong with some of these people? This isn’t a life-saving medical procedure or anything. You can probably get the same information from a Udemy course on sale for $10. Anyway, we do need to know who this is in order to avoid them
I did a call with her just to see what she would say. I purposely inflated my income on the prescreening. I was quoted $15K for 12 months of her program. It was all I could do not to laugh. I also asked questions that she couldnt answer.
Yes. I have been scammed by Emma. I started the course, but it didn’t make sense to me. She’s very vague and just likes to talk about what she has made, but no real help. I’m in digital downloads, so even though I was told she covers that, she doesn’t. I’ve tried to cancel and get out, but they threatened to damage my credit rating. I’m one who is going to pay what I agreed to but will never listen to her again. I definitely regret it. I only have a couple more months and then I’ll be done.
This is so crazy that I thought about who it might be before I even looked at the comments and I was right I guess🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤣😂 Funny because I hadn’t even heard people were scammed, taken advantage of, or unsatisfied with her training. 🤦🏾♀️

That sales call style is the #1 thing that will turn me off. No Transparency = RED FLAG. They should tell you upfront what costs are going to be. That sales style is a script that's been around a number of years, too. Beware of anyone using that tactic.
George is awesome! Emma? not so much... I have worked with her and some of her methods are outdated for sure! And she does not keep updated with Etsy news, I experienced it first hand. She suggests everyone to open a new shop, whetever the issue is with their first shop, and I am 100% certain she won't refund your money if you get suspended or banned! Easy money for her right there!
Yes, she did the same to me. She told me to close my old shop and open a new one, even though I had already made sales and received reviews. I couldn’t understand her reasoning, which is when I started asking to cancel the course. I even told her to just keep the money I had already paid-I didn’t care anymore. I’m paying $8,400, and I’m still stuck making payments for it.
Shimmy is right not to name the person. In any case, it isn't necessary because all it takes is a bit of due diligence, like typing names (plural because surely there's a second one mentioned by someone?) people mention in the comments into google and having a look around. It doesn't take long.
So I watched this immediately after it came out, and there were several comments that were there, and now they’re gone. I have a feeling one of Dylan’s people came by and reported all of them. 🤔
wow... I was planning to sign up for her course, because I'm struggling to get visibility for my Etsy store, but I couldn't find the price anywhere. I thought it is going to be 1-2K with coaching... but 15K with no refund?? No magic sales tactic is worth that kind of money..
Idk who dylan is, but heather seems super genuine and almost never mentions her course so its hard to believe she would be scamming people.... her free course is very in depth and thorough too. Idk about the paid one because its too spendy for me ($1k) but if its as good or better than the free one its not scammy... What about Jesse Teaches? He seems super knowledgeable (and supposedly made millions with pod), and his course/coaching is like $5k... but no one ever mentions him as good or bad 🤔🤔
I watched several of her videos thinking I could just ignore my gut feeling about her enough to glean some helpful information. But ultimately I couldn't watch her anymore, because of that intuition.
WHAT I DONT UNDERSTAND IS WHY ARE WE WITH HOLDING HER INFO THIS IS SO SCARY HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE IS SHE GONNA HURT OR F UP THERE LIFE WITH HER SICK ACTIONS I WISH WE ALL NEW WHO THIS PERSON WAS SO WE KNOW TO STAYYYY FARE AWAY 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
So are you willing to stick your neck out such that you will almost certainly get dragged into court which can cost you thousands and thousands of dollars? She no doubt could afford a lawyer that could ruin you for doing so. She no doubt paid a good lawyer to come up with the contract that has to be signed which protects her from consequences of running a scammy business. That is the sad and cold reality of the situation. The way she has it set up, her scam is likely legal.
I had a guy pressuring me to join..I just finally had to block him out, promising to make me a millionaire I got so mad at his approach I had to block him to shut him up!-April Oh and Thank you Shimmy as always amazing content 🥰
You ever wonder why none of the other Esty trainers never have Dylan as a guest. They see through her BS. Shimmy's the only one calling it out even though we can't technically using her name. And I looked into a year or so ago and was quoted $5K. 😂.
I only want to earn an extra £300 a month….I am treating it as a business, and spend money on the correct tools etc….No one should expect to run their business for free, and make money by not paying companies for the tools they use….The “gurus” need to stop saying it can all be done for free….Good training is hard to find, that isn’t a scam….I am a fully qualified trainer, with 25yrs of experience. So I am very picky I guess….Great video Shimmy❤
Long time follower of your channel. Wonderful exposesay. Similar experience with coaching for FBA from a fellow with 2 first names, who is no longer spruking as he was exposed. Fortunately I at the last minute I did not sign up. $5000 course. Luckily I dodged a bullet. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.
Hi thank you so much for this. Are there any similar scam that you know of on training for affiliate marketing? There are a lot of ads on youtube for affiliate marketing that ask you to watch a training video then ask you to sign up for a call where in order to get the actual training you have to pay similar types of money. The sales speech is very similar to what I heard in this video.Can you investigate? Please? thanks.

You have heard of lawsuits, haven't you? People that set up these scammy type business models do so with the help of lawyers. It is sad, and appalling, but it is VERY likely, because of contracts that have to be signed, that the scam is entirely legal.
@EtsyMentor Looks exactly like Batisa - from the Movie "Knock at The Cabin"! This is cool! I know this has nothing to do with the video, just had to point that out tho!💯
This is very scammy. What kind of person would pressure people with no money to pay such a high price for a course and then not deliver? Just wondering if a person uses such tactics and promotes their course for commercial gain on YT, could RUclips close their channel?
Hey Shimmy long time no speak, I HAVE A QUESTION THOUGH......but after months of nothing.... I got a job at a medical marijuana pharmacy,).. Recently started a niche based off of the name of our strains,... And now corporate is looking at them to decide if they want to commission my designs for the company for company wide distribution (about 4 states big...... How should i bargain for a fair rate for my designs??.... This might be my big break.....your advice?
you could do an even split. or you could sell them the designs... there's a few ways to play it. I've never done that before so it's tricky. I think the best way is to agree on a price you get, and then they can sell for whatever they want
@@shimmymorris1 kool. .....i was wondering since growers can only grow for that state only ( the FED is funny about that) so only Louisiana would it be smart to play the odd abd ask for a percentage of all sales??.... Sorry never had a company actually take me serious before...kind cool...kinda nervous

Can you say the name of the person or the course? Without either one of those it will be very difficult to protect people from being scammed if they don’t know who to watch out for.
Of course this video is informative because it is clear from the information on the video exactly what you can expect in the sales process. ANY person using such tactics should be avoided. That said, no one should be expected to risk their livelihood by what would be almost certainly a lawsuit. That kind of a scam business model is very likely legal because of the contracts signed. The person setting it up had lawyers involved to make it so. There are many horrible and predatory businesses that are perfectly legal. That is just the cold, hard, reality of it. The fact that hedge funds, now known as "private equity firms" legally operate is absolute proof of that hard reality.
Anyone here, who have report her and was able to get out I just trying to fix my credit and they already threatening to send my debt to collection they blocked me from the "course" and even in aggressive tone on e-mails What is the process? How to report her and her team? How they can collect of a service they denied is there's anything I can do

@@shimmymorris1 I understand. That's why I said "wild guess". I really can't think of anyone with a more voracious appetite for money than her, and on top of that, I had a personal experience that compounds things toward my personal conclusion. Let's ponder, everyone else displays a genuine sense of helpfulness and a heartfelt desire to help others. Dylan talks about money. I'll leave it up to each person to come to his/her own conclusions.

nowadays it is hard to make a different between scammers or not, most of the video POD, affiliate business and you named it, have the same strategies and pattern, sometimes videos that giving free training helpful for some peoples as well. For those scammers and the good ones attract the people with killing clickbait thumbnail, fake screenshot, make an interesting content video at the beginning, lead the people download freebies with email as the exchange, then lead to free training. on the free training marketer do their job, the powerful method ONLY on the paid member area, etc, spamming email 4-6 times a day. then how can we make them different? "The most dangerous person is a story teller"
Hannah doesn’t sell POD she’s handmade and probably gives away more free information than anyone else just like Shimmy, she also doesn’t sell high ticket coaching programs honestly, I don’t even think she sells anything except her own software that is legit
If is Dylan Jahraus why her account is not banned? Obviously she is a scammer. Now I have a lot of time and after watching this I am thinking to contact her and pretend I am interested in her course. I can play with her/them just for fun.
The top women on YT that talk about E T S Y are very scammy IMO, I have only watched a few of her videos. It isn’t just her, but I can think of three or four more that are quite slimy.
So glad i watched yourvideo. I was considering signing up for a course. I had no idea there were such big scammers in the POD business. thanks for sharing. thanks for being so cool. We appreciate you.
Definitely Dylan Jahraus

That is the first person that came to my mind and I'm only 2 minutes into this video -it's definitely Dylan Jahraus she seems like a snake! She sells flower arrangements and swindles people people out of their money with her overpriced $5000, $7000 dollar courses.

He’s talking about Dylan Jahraus. I can say because I’m one on the ppl who fell for the high pressure sales tactic of the sales call. Def regret the purchase after about 1/3rd through the lessons.
I am so sorry.
Yeah I been watching him for years I just stopped because I lost consistency I wish I watch this sooner I fall for this to.
This is definitely her
Reddit has been so brutal about her and her scammy “course.” Thank you for looking out for us!
its dylan. my brand new shop was closed with no listings and still pay. i was pretty gullible. hate seeing her face show up on my youtube channel b/c she conned me.
Same here, I can't stand her. I'm currently paying $444 every month. I've already filed complaints with the FTC and BBB, and I’m planning to contact the San Diego Police Department, where she’s based.
Kudos for doing this video. I think one thing that stuck out to me being in Australia, is the second interview the guest kept referring to dollar amounts in US dollars. In case people don't realise, the Australian dollar is a considerably lower exchange rate. $US15,000 is $22,237.38 Australian Dollars!
I agree that paying for courses is not a bad thing, but you HAVE to deliver on value!
This was a well made, researched and fair piece of reporting. Well done sir.
This video needs to go viral. Plus, she said she is a Navy family. Talk about stolen valor and giving our military a bad name.
Using the military wife card shows her true character. My daughter is active duty. When I realized how much Dylan was using her husband's service for profit, I stopped watching. It's insulting and wrong on all levels. It's just part of her con.
I once booked a consultation call with one of her team members, and I didn‘t get any information about what to actually expect from her coaching. After contacting them again via email after the call, I was sent the pricing for her coaching, and I have no words about that. I laughed in shock. That is when I knew she was a scammer…
Thanks brother for exposing her 🙏🏼🍀 this helps all of us
Feel bad for everyone scammed. Think a good starting point is using all free training on the platforms directly. Any expert needs to be vetted for any training that costs money. Thanks for doing this video.
You're doing the Lord's work. A while back I also looked into this, had correspondence with the course creator and was quoted an exorbitantly high amount I couldn't afford. Luckily I didn't schedule a call, glad I didn't or I would have been scammed for sure!
thank god!
Yup looking at the comments and the thumbnail I knew exactly who your were talking about. After watching a few of her videos after first getting started I had a strong gut feeling not to listen to anything she was saying. I just couldn't trust her. So glad I listened to my gut...
I also had an immediate gut response to this woman's youtube/instagram ads. Watched an episode and knew instinctively not to listen to anything she had to say.
I also figured out it was that Dylan person, although I didn't know much about the courses, bc I wouldn't be able to afford any, so didn't even look into them, but watched her videos to learn some stuff. Now I worry I applied some of her advice that might be wrong or suspicious by Etsy. I'm glad I live in the EU and we have the 14 days online buy protection and some other buyer protections in case of skillful scammer. Good job, Shimmy, I've been watching you videos for over a year (or more?) and have learned a lot. Please give more recommendations of good coaches out there that one can trust.
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is.
Many people have made guesses, feel free to research whoever anyone has guessed further on google if you want.
Thanks so much for watching my videos! I would recommend. Philip anders, detour shirts, chris heckman, meg heckman.. .
There's a special place in the depths of hell for Dylan. To know that she's a mother, and is still willing to stoop this low, says all there is to say. She's the slimiest worm, and her nonsense is what Netflix documentaries are made of--I wouldn't be surprised if I see her there one day!
OMG! I'm so glad I've never heard of this creep until now. Wow...just wow!
George is great by the way. He is a genuinely helpful guy 👍🏿👍🏿
totally!
I have a feeling its Dylan Jahraus

@@shimmymorris1 fair enough. Basically at the end of the day, run the opposite way if they're charging in the thousands of dollars and getting you on a contract. One POD guy out there called Ronnie Mckenzie, is also charging over 10k for his courses.. Yuck..
I've heard a string of horrible things about that particular person. People have literally lost their accounts because of them taking her advice 😑😑
I INSTANTLY thought the same thing!
Yep it’s her
Just wanted to say that everything described in this video is true and worse. I have had personal awful experience with “Emma”, I don’t even know how it’s legal and she is still operating. The company used to have a really bad bbb rating and in 1 month it was flooded with 5 star reviews from fake customers after a complaint was filed to bring it up. If BBB wouldn’t do anything who else should these kinds of people be reported, it’s criminal!
That's how she took our money to buy all those properties. Thanks, Shimmy!
My experience ended with some kind of "free" webinar that was suppose to include a free consultation; BUT, in order to have your "free" consultation you had to qualify & commit to paying for future training or something like that. It was very high pressure.
Had a call with Dylan once. So many red flags. Thankfully didnt give her any money. Feel so bad for anyone who got taken advantage of.
She's also a student of Alex Hormozi thats where shes learning all these high pressure sales tactics. Which is fine if you are actually providing value. Her event in Orlando is just another opportunity for her and her team to pressure people into paying for her programs.
@@bremcdonaldThat makes sense. Alex and his wife give off the wrong vibes for me. I feel like there has to be a ton of people hurt for their wealth.
Yes it’s Dylan! I really feel like I was deceived into buying this course because she said she sold you the complete system of how to make multi six figures on Etsy. What she gives is basically a loose blueprint of what she did to make 6 figures in 1 year and this is why it’s not very helpful to POD or digital.
I really feel this course preyed on my pain points of wanting a better financial future which is great marketing from her pov and borderline predatory. I want to start a Reddit community just for support. I’m still stuck on the payment plan and want advice!
I’m in the same situation as you. I tried to get out of it but was told I couldn’t. I wondered if I could call my credit card company and stop payment.
@@tmslater12 I talked to someone else who was in our situation and they told me that Dylan doesn’t have your social security number or ID so there’s no consequences of refusing to pay via contacting your bank. However I’ve been paying for more than a year so I’m like should I just finish it off? I want a refund of all my payments!!!!
@@elliecandle773 thank you for the info!
@@tmslater12 just went back to Reddit to read about her. There are people who have been threatened with collections. I’m not sure if this hurts your credit.
If you are on a payment plan on a credit card. Close that credit card. Years ago when I was thinking I must be missing out. I bought a course and it was very expensive. It was pure puffery and no substance. I requested to stop the payments. I didn’t ask for a refund by that they release my future payments. It was refused. I closed that credit card and 9 years later I still get emails that I will have payment taken out. It’s an email they send before a transaction like other subs you might have. I wrote them back then and said if you try to sue me I will go open a RUclips channel and give people all the details and sue you for scamming people. It is not in collections and they went out of business during the pandemic. I don’t feel sorry for these people. Just stop paying them. Send an email and tell them you will report and expose them. It’s not an idle threat. I would site all the possible trouble they will have. She has Facebook ads all day long. RUclips will ban her, fb will ban her, threaten you will go in every fb group and expose her. The fear of exposure is motivation enough to stop taking money. That’s my opinion. In future it is best to buy monthly like shimmy has. Always pay with PayPal. PayPal you can stop subscription inside of PayPal. I used kittl one month and did not like it. So I opened my PayPal app and unsubscribed. They sent me an email the next month saying my payment didn’t go through. I wrote back and said I cancelled. The emails never stopped. One email 2 months ago I wrote back do you not understand English? I canceled go away. Then I blocked them.i know I talk too much but I feel for you. We have been there. Only subscribe through PayPal and only a monthly program. Never commit to a course
Love George! Thanks Shimmy!❤
Mate... you are not exposing anyone if you dont tell his name. If you want to protect newbies like us from getting scammed you need to give his/her name
Her. It’s likely Dylan. The point is not to commit to such an insanely priced course without checking the reviews from people who have used it on reddit or something.
@@Deadseelifeexactly - reddit has a lot to say about her 😬
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is.
Many people have made guesses, feel free to research whoever anyone has guessed further on google if you want.
In terms of protecting people, i made sure the video highlighted important factors to be aware of when looking for a course to buy.
1. Don't spend thousands and thousands on a course
2. Always research and google the person and due your due diligence
3. Don't ever buy over the phone in order to "save" money
4. If you're aware of this video and what's out there, you should already be better off
I hope this helped :D
The shadow looked a lot like Heather - but she is not a pump and dump scammer
@@ma2perdueHeather sells PoD. Dylan doesn’t. She sells supplies. The customers were saying the course is only beneficial for those selling physical items, so I think it’s Dylan rather than Heather or other PoD females with Etsy courses
Dylan Jahraus. Lol. I tried to quit and the only way was canceling the transaction with my bank.
Did your credit score tank?
@elliecandle773 it was instantaneous. I signed up and then I somehow felt like I needed to do a search and found reddit subs about her and then I explained right away to the bank operator before it cleared
Thanks for the heads up!!
Hilarious! The moment I saw this title I know it would be about Dylan. I had a brief encounter with her (well her insta but pretty sure it was a sales person).
I backed out after finding out the costs! 😵💫 I was quoted $8k
$8k!!! 🤯
That's what I am paying right now $8400 I wish i checked the review in reddit.
These stories are both horrifying and heartbreaking. These people should report her to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)!! The BBB is really just a glorified Yelp, but the FTC can shut her down and get restitutions for her victims. Not only that… if she’s crossed certain lines, the FTC can refer the case to the DOJ. And not for nothing but these are some big numbers being thrown around, and her victim pool obviously crosses state lines, maybe even international borders. Report her ass to the people that can do something about it!!
I just filed a complaint to FTC we will see.
@@Rowena-s4z Good for you!!🙌 If you know other people who were also scammed, you should encourage them to do the same! They’ll review it regardless, but when a cluster of people with the same complaints starts to develop, it shows a pattern and it will get more attention. Good luck!
@@janedarc7731 Yes, I know of others who have fallen victim to Dylan as well. I’ve been speaking with someone who has been taking Dylan's course for over a year and hasn’t sold anything. She paid a lot of money, and the course has proven to be completely useless.
I like the code name "Emma". It actually sounds like a girls' name unlike Dylan.
Its DEFINITELY Dylan Jahrus. I feel like a sucker. $5000 later. I was offered one on one coaching-never happened. It was group coaching with various coaches. I got a surprised email after 6 weeks saying my one-on-one coaching had ended but I could pay for more. Asked for my money back-didn't get it. Also, the contract is not equitable. It doesn't say what its going to provide to the student but everything about protecting their right to collect money. I don't know how people like this live with themselves because I think many people who start n POD are looking for a way to make money when they are strapped for cash and she knows it.
that's shocking! I'm so so sorry that happened to you!
@@shimmymorris1 thanks Shimmy for bringing this to light. At least I know it wasn't just me.
Man I was always thinking I must be failing bc I'm not doing what this lady says.. I'm glad I didn't have any money to give her..
I've never even heard of her, lol even with all the videos and creators I've seen.
She's never even popped up in my recommended which is how I found Shimmy.
I just looked her up and, idk, but her face has an AI look to it.
I would never pay for a pod course. Too many amazing free teachings online to choose from.
Tbh I tried watching what I think is this person’s videos and couldn’t stand her delivery/style. It felt pompous. I never made it through a full video without being bothered by it. I tried a few times. 😅 Maybe it’s intuition lol There’s far better RUclipsrs who actually give out useful information in a relatable, easy to follow (and easy to listen to) format for free. I follow those and never had to pay for any info. I was able to create a profitable pod business with those. I do this full time and it’s only my second full year. Thanks for warning people and giving us good info. ❤
Why are people so in need to get rich fast.. they are selling the dream of get rich fast and people are ready to pay 5000 for a course when thers so many resources online to learn anything. Its just a shame.
I think it's Dylan Jahraus
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is.

I looked up this Dylan Jahraus person.
Every "course review" was a client testimonial short SHE posted herself,
[which means she must be offering "something" in exchange for those video shorts,...(which if actual is a YT violation.)]
But the complete lack of contrary opinions, about this course/coaching, was itself a giant red flag for me. It wreeeeeaks of SEO manipulation, behind the scenes. How does this happen without YT "algorithmic-cooperation"...?? I've NEVER seen ZERO conflicting opinions on anything online.
Shimmy,
Are you "scared" of this person's wrath? Is she somehow destroying other creators' careers/stores/reach, who oppose her??
Etsy, YT, etc., Official Complaints should be levelled en masse,...and a class-action lawsuit, by those hurt or ripped off, should be considered.
If he mentions her name, it is likely the video will be taken down and he just wants people to be aware of the awful people out there.
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is.

@@shimmymorris1 You've done a commendable job maintaining your Ethics surrounding this person,...which I hold in high esteem. It gives "the person" a true opportunity to do the right thing and correct their behavior on their own.
God is in charge of Judgement, not Us. Well done, Sir.
I got the same issue. I call my bank to report the issue. Cancel my bank card bc they got my card number 😢 feel stupid after. I hoped seeing your video before. But still luckily has not spent much just one payment bc it was monthly payment for the cheapest package 😢 which is a hundred something. By the way they ignored and ghosted me when I asked for refund so I go straight to the bank
im so sorry this happened to you!
So we all know this is Dylan right?
I commented on her video of why she boasts about her successful Etsy store but when I check the store she barely makes 5 - 10 sales every 2 weeks in her Etsy store and she deleted my comment and hid me from her channel.. Yes it’s Dylan Jahraus!
How do you know she only makes those sales?
@@elliecandle773 because I know her Etsy shop and check the profile sales to see the changes.
@elliecandle773 idky shimmy deleted my previous comment, but I said I know her Etsy shop obviously I'm not gonna reveal it. And I track her profile sales to see how much she sells a week etc.
@@DailyOrah oh. I’ve seen her Etsy shop. I wonder how much in sales she really does.
@@elliecandle773 her shop barely sells, rn it's averaging about 5 - 10 sales every 2 weeks
If your paying that much for a course, then you better be a millionaire by the the end of the year. That's ridiculous.
Shimmy, almost there, almost 100.000 subs! :)
woohoo! hopefully soon
Let's be real. Dylan Jahraus is the worst one and it is probably her he is talking about. Probably doesn't want to get sued Mentioning her.
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is.
Many people have made guesses, feel free to research whoever anyone has guessed further on google if you want.
I agree it's Dylan because she charges $10k for her course and her stuff is outdated. Lots of complaint about her. She has a large RUclips following and she goes after who said things about her course that's why no one want to come out to say it. That's why he said he cannot reveal this person name because she will sue. We already know who she is.
As soon as the air quotes came out, I first thought, "Is this Dylan" but figured it wasn't her, since it was so difficult to get into "this" person's course. But after reading some comments, perhaps my initial thoughts were right. All the salesy calls and such to get into a program - was really confusing - why make it hard for people to sign up? I never actually looked into Dylan's course because I never trusted her enough when I watched her videos. But figured since she mentions it a lot in her RUclips videos that there was probably a page somewhere to sign up for it. I now have less respect for her, if this is in fact how she runs her business. People should not be allowed to do this to! So Shameful. 😖
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is.

People do calls when it's such an expensive program as it's easier to convert sales on the call
Dylan is a total sociopath, serving Elizabeth Holmes/Theranos realness
lol omg she definitely gives these vibes
I think she has Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
i suspected Dylan the moment i saw the thumbnail lol

Who in their right mind would even entertain the idea of forking over that kind of money for an Etsy course? What is wrong with some of these people? This isn’t a life-saving medical procedure or anything. You can probably get the same information from a Udemy course on sale for $10. Anyway, we do need to know who this is in order to avoid them
lots of people it seems
Desperation makes people do crazy things all the time, take Bank Robberies for example, just to be able to survive and pay for bills.
Between RUclips, FB groups, podcasts and The Etsy Seller Handbook, all the info you need is available for free. She's taking advantage of people.
No need to blame the victim of such obviously predatory practices.
I did a call with her just to see what she would say. I purposely inflated my income on the prescreening. I was quoted $15K for 12 months of her program. It was all I could do not to laugh. I also asked questions that she couldnt answer.
Crap $15k we don't even make $15k on Etsy. In no way I'm paying that. If anyone pay that the person better guarantee you to make double on Etsy.
Can all be learnt on RUclips so....
Laughing was the correct response. The rest of these people are suckers.
That was the biggest red flag for me too, couldn't answer my questions.
Yes. I have been scammed by Emma. I started the course, but it didn’t make sense to me. She’s very vague and just likes to talk about what she has made, but no real help. I’m in digital downloads, so even though I was told she covers that, she doesn’t. I’ve tried to cancel and get out, but they threatened to damage my credit rating. I’m one who is going to pay what I agreed to but will never listen to her again. I definitely regret it. I only have a couple more months and then I’ll be done.
I am so sorry Dylan crossed your path. Thank you for sharing that you'll be free of her soon.
Emma aka Dylan was giving out gift voichers for positive reviews aswell
This is so crazy that I thought about who it might be before I even looked at the comments and I was right I guess🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤣😂 Funny because I hadn’t even heard people were scammed, taken advantage of, or unsatisfied with her training. 🤦🏾♀️

I wont entertain anyone who makes you set up a phone call before telling the price.
That sales call style is the #1 thing that will turn me off. No Transparency = RED FLAG. They should tell you upfront what costs are going to be. That sales style is a script that's been around a number of years, too. Beware of anyone using that tactic.
It's def Dylan. Wish I would have gone with my gut before waisting money on her.
😥
@@ashleyallen2799 I’m so sorry you got scammed by her. I hope and pray that she gets her comeuppance.
Shimmy is The Cofezilla in POD 🧐
First 2 minutes it's dylan. Spent thousands? Took legal action for refund? One reddit sweep to understand its dylan
George is awesome! Emma? not so much... I have worked with her and some of her methods are outdated for sure! And she does not keep updated with Etsy news, I experienced it first hand. She suggests everyone to open a new shop, whetever the issue is with their first shop, and I am 100% certain she won't refund your money if you get suspended or banned! Easy money for her right there!
Yes, she did the same to me. She told me to close my old shop and open a new one, even though I had already made sales and received reviews. I couldn’t understand her reasoning, which is when I started asking to cancel the course. I even told her to just keep the money I had already paid-I didn’t care anymore. I’m paying $8,400, and I’m still stuck making payments for it.
Shimmy is right not to name the person. In any case, it isn't necessary because all it takes is a bit of due diligence, like typing names (plural because surely there's a second one mentioned by someone?) people mention in the comments into google and having a look around. It doesn't take long.
So I watched this immediately after it came out, and there were several comments that were there, and now they’re gone. I have a feeling one of Dylan’s people came by and reported all of them. 🤔
No. It’s because there were a few spots where the voices of the interviewees were not disguised.
The video had to be re uploaded so we unfortunately lost the first batch of comments
00:20 Shimmy, you forgot "passive"!😂
wow... I was planning to sign up for her course, because I'm struggling to get visibility for my Etsy store, but I couldn't find the price anywhere. I thought it is going to be 1-2K with coaching... but 15K with no refund?? No magic sales tactic is worth that kind of money..
I was quoted $6,000 then they offered a $3,000 discount 😅
Anything over $200 for that course is insane. She's out of her mind.
Idk who dylan is, but heather seems super genuine and almost never mentions her course so its hard to believe she would be scamming people.... her free course is very in depth and thorough too. Idk about the paid one because its too spendy for me ($1k) but if its as good or better than the free one its not scammy...
What about Jesse Teaches? He seems super knowledgeable (and supposedly made millions with pod), and his course/coaching is like $5k... but no one ever mentions him as good or bad 🤔🤔
I spotted that silhouette on the spot! She got me too
😥
Thankyou for this video it is very informative.
you're welcome!
I did the original call...got the slimy vibes rigt away...im from jersey, and i used to sell real estate. I can smell slimeballs 😂
I watched several of her videos thinking I could just ignore my gut feeling about her enough to glean some helpful information. But ultimately I couldn't watch her anymore, because of that intuition.
WHAT I DONT UNDERSTAND IS WHY ARE WE WITH HOLDING HER INFO THIS IS SO SCARY HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE IS SHE GONNA HURT OR F UP THERE LIFE WITH HER SICK ACTIONS I WISH WE ALL NEW WHO THIS PERSON WAS SO WE KNOW TO STAYYYY FARE AWAY 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
So are you willing to stick your neck out such that you will almost certainly get dragged into court which can cost you thousands and thousands of dollars? She no doubt could afford a lawyer that could ruin you for doing so. She no doubt paid a good lawyer to come up with the contract that has to be signed which protects her from consequences of running a scammy business. That is the sad and cold reality of the situation. The way she has it set up, her scam is likely legal.
Luckily I never bought any of those programs, but I did watch her videos. Thanks for the information, I’ve now unfollowed her.
I had a guy pressuring me to join..I just finally had to block him out, promising to make me a millionaire I got so mad at his approach I had to block him to shut him up!-April Oh and Thank you Shimmy as always amazing content 🥰
thanks so much! and well done for not falling for it
I got caught up in something similar but a totally different area. I thought I was pretty scam proof. They told me exactly what I wanted to hear.
You ever wonder why none of the other Esty trainers never have Dylan as a guest. They see through her BS. Shimmy's the only one calling it out even though we can't technically using her name. And I looked into a year or so ago and was quoted $5K. 😂.
I only want to earn an extra £300 a month….I am treating it as a business, and spend money on the correct tools etc….No one should expect to run their business for free, and make money by not paying companies for the tools they use….The “gurus” need to stop saying it can all be done for free….Good training is hard to find, that isn’t a scam….I am a fully qualified trainer, with 25yrs of experience. So I am very picky I guess….Great video Shimmy❤
thank you! You have every right to be picky!
Long time follower of your channel. Wonderful exposesay. Similar experience with coaching for FBA from a fellow with 2 first names, who is no longer spruking as he was exposed. Fortunately I at the last minute I did not sign up. $5000 course. Luckily I dodged a bullet. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.
yes the double first name FBA guru! A ton of similarities!!
Thank you for this information!
Glad it was helpful!
I feel lucky that I haven’t heard of this person until today, or I may have fallen into the same trap!
thats very good!
This must be Dylan, I understand why he’s not saying her name, nobody wants a lawsuit
Hi thank you so much for this. Are there any similar scam that you know of on training for affiliate marketing? There are a lot of ads on youtube for affiliate marketing that ask you to watch a training video then ask you to sign up for a call where in order to get the actual training you have to pay similar types of money. The sales speech is very similar to what I heard in this video.Can you investigate? Please? thanks.
So if the person is scamming people why protect their identity so other people can get scammed ?
Due to the severity of the situation I can neither confirm or deny who it is.

You have heard of lawsuits, haven't you? People that set up these scammy type business models do so with the help of lawyers. It is sad, and appalling, but it is VERY likely, because of contracts that have to be signed, that the scam is entirely legal.
We now need a video of how to get out, I can't even find the contract, i didn't even remember the contract
00:20 Shimmy, you forgot "passive"!😂
oops haha
"serious inquiries only" loool
@EtsyMentor Looks exactly like Batisa - from the Movie "Knock at The Cabin"! This is cool! I know this has nothing to do with the video, just had to point that out tho!💯
haha i thought that too 😂
Dylan Jahraus has so many bad reviews on reddit.
This is very scammy. What kind of person would pressure people with no money to pay such a high price for a course and then not deliver? Just wondering if a person uses such tactics and promotes their course for commercial gain on YT, could RUclips close their channel?
i doubt it
she looks so sweet!
Hey Shimmy long time no speak, I HAVE A QUESTION THOUGH......but after months of nothing.... I got a job at a medical marijuana pharmacy,).. Recently started a niche based off of the name of our strains,... And now corporate is looking at them to decide if they want to commission my designs for the company for company wide distribution (about 4 states big...... How should i bargain for a fair rate for my designs??.... This might be my big break.....your advice?
you could do an even split. or you could sell them the designs... there's a few ways to play it. I've never done that before so it's tricky. I think the best way is to agree on a price you get, and then they can sell for whatever they want

Can you say the name of the person or the course? Without either one of those it will be very difficult to protect people from being scammed if they don’t know who to watch out for.
Of course this video is informative because it is clear from the information on the video exactly what you can expect in the sales process. ANY person using such tactics should be avoided. That said, no one should be expected to risk their livelihood by what would be almost certainly a lawsuit. That kind of a scam business model is very likely legal because of the contracts signed. The person setting it up had lawyers involved to make it so. There are many horrible and predatory businesses that are perfectly legal. That is just the cold, hard, reality of it. The fact that hedge funds, now known as "private equity firms" legally operate is absolute proof of that hard reality.

Just read the comments..
I wonder if this is the same person selling etsy seo for 5 bucks a listing 😢
nowadays it is hard to make a different between scammers or not, most of the video POD, affiliate business and you named it, have the same strategies and pattern, sometimes videos that giving free training helpful for some peoples as well.
For those scammers and the good ones attract the people with killing clickbait thumbnail, fake screenshot, make an interesting content video at the beginning, lead the people download freebies with email as the exchange, then lead to free training. on the free training marketer do their job, the powerful method ONLY on the paid member area, etc, spamming email 4-6 times a day. then how can we make them different?
"The most dangerous person is a story teller"
When it comes to pod you either suck, suck harder, or not suck so much, or you are lucky
12:43 moist critikal? Probably not
OMG! I need help right now on how’s to get out with this contract. I am being scammed with Dylan Jaurus and I paid $8400. Please help me.
So it is impossible to make decent money in print on demand business
not at all
I thought it was going to be about Hannah Gardner- who inflates her POD sales figures I'm sure.
Hannah doesn’t sell POD she’s handmade and probably gives away more free information than anyone else just like Shimmy, she also doesn’t sell high ticket coaching programs honestly, I don’t even think she sells anything except her own software that is legit
I can guarantee you it's not Hannah. She's awesome!
If is Dylan Jahraus why her account is not banned? Obviously she is a scammer. Now I have a lot of time and after watching this I am thinking to contact her and pretend I am interested in her course. I can play with her/them just for fun.

The top women on YT that talk about E T S Y are very scammy IMO, I have only watched a few of her videos. It isn’t just her, but I can think of three or four more that are quite slimy.

So true indeed. Slimy is an understatement describing these sheep in wolves clothing
Can you say who the other ladies are on ytube that are also scammy?
