    I don't want to speak for Tamas, but your scorn may be misplaced. Tamas and I hangout every time he makes his way up to Milwaukee (somewhat frequently). I consider him a good friend. He's a very solid individual.

    If I remember right, Tamas knew him from car events, nothing more. I wouldn't take his non-response as anything. If I had to bet, I'd bet Tamas hasn't seen the post in OOT asking what he thinks of Reza now.

    Ahh I see. Reza was or is just a casual acquaintance of Tamas's. The "down to earth" qualities that Tamas claims Reza is in possession of must be very strong if that's the case.

    kiesan, i was manipulated like many others. I do apologize for all that. as you know, hes very good at doing that and he literally told me what to post on here. most of the ppl commenting positive stuff about him are people he manipulated. "Tom Stanton" is reza btw. And we have exposed him and the mentees dropping left and right and he refuses to let them cancel. so far, we have made everyone contact their banks and file for fraud. Hopefully, everyone will be getting a refund. we also filed a dispute on paypal and all payments to Mentortips are being flagged as fraud.

    Everyone is waking up. It's been a nightmare. I dont think you would understand. for most of us, we had no experience in this industry and he used that to his benefit and lied to everyone. However dont underestimate us, we will bring his company down :)

    thank you all

    Thanks for saying that. This is actually a very understanding and forgiving group, for the most part. Mistakes are fine if you acknowledge them, people will be helpful with advice for moving on and forward.

    It might be an eye-opener for you to read through this thread again, now that you have a new perspective. It's not a surprise at all that you say Reza told you what to post - several people here posted that Reza-scripted posts were what was going on right from the start of the first mentees showing up.


    We do understand - many people in this thread tried to point out to the mentees that Reza was a fraud and was ripping you off and lying to you - none of the mentees would listen. You could suggest to the other mentees that they should read this thread again, to see that many people tried to point out that Reza was a scammer and fraud right from the start. That was well-intentioned advice for the mentees, all of them ignored it. VERY worth your and their time to read it again, so that they can begin to learn and recognize the warning signs of a fraudster - and the signs of good advice, even if it means you don't become instantly rich after all.

    Bringing his company down is not a worthwhile goal, he'll just move on to the next scam - cooperating with any investigations or charges to get him in jail is a worthwhile goal. Cooperate with FPA for starters, where they have requested anyone with inside information on Reza's operations to contact them.

    Yup - El Wayne called it on Dec 30:
    This part of a post by "TomStanton" on Dec 30 is actually really funny in retrospect - looks like Reza called his own downfall.

    I wouldn't spend too much energy trying to bring his company down. I think the best thing that anyone can do is to increase awareness. At the end of the day his target audience is an endless supply of tweeners with hopes to make millions over night through some secret sauce that Reza has. This will not change.

    I feel like as long as we keep this thread going, and victims of Reza's fraud keep coming forth we can save some people from making poor decisions. I am sure by now this thread has saved hundreds of people from throwing their money away, and the way things are trending we will save hundreds more.

    I respect the fact that you've come clean, and hope others do too.

    I think it's swell you're apologizing now. Better than nothing I suppose. Although perhaps a bit hollow considering it finally came only after several of us pointed out that no one was apologizing.

    Sorry to be so cynical. I wonder if you actually mean it, or if you truly understand what happened here. Yah sure there is a sociopath with social media, ummm, "skills" that's duping younglings out of whatever is in their piggy bank. IMO the "duped" really need to step back and look at themselves. They need to figure out what it is exactly about themselves that makes whatever it is guys like Reza are offering so appealing.

    What I'm hearing is you feel you were manipulated. That Reza made you post that drivel. For those things that happened beyond your control you are sorry. I'm not hearing anyone apologize for their own actions. I'm not hearing anyone say they are sorry since they acted like a complete twit and they are going to do their best to learn from it and perhaps re-evaluate their own values and beliefs.

    It reminds of being at the park when the one kid takes the other kids lollipop. Only after the victim screams bloody murder and the thiefs mom insists over and over that lil Johnny say "sorry" do we get the tiniest bit of remorse. All the while lil Johnny is just plotting his next heist and how to do it better.

    I disagree, respectfully.

    I've had the misfortune of seeing good people get caught up in cult like organizations (read Scientology). Honestly, I pity them because they don't know any better and are in too deep to question their own actions. I'll give Taha the benefit of doubt, the fact that he's apologized, explained his situation, and is taking action to help other victims is good.

    Just wanted to put that out there.

    The old ig account is still down.... That's his new ig account from the looks of things Reza bought followers for this ig account as well cause it jumped from 4,000 followers to 80k down to 79k in a few short weeks with not many posts added to the account.

    That's quite a indicator considering reza has small following on every other social media platform...

    YouTube videos he is lucky to get 1000 views per video

    Twitter 9,300 roughly which a lot are fake accounts following him.. Cause he bought followers on Twitter. Not so long ago I posted a screenshot of reza saying wow I hit 700 followers on Twitter..

    Facebook considering he hit the limit for Facebook followers there not much interaction happening on his Facebook page between him and the followers..

    I feel like this point is getting overlooked.

    It's nice that these people are opening their eyes to the truth, but I feel no sympathy for someone who just wants their problem solved and can't even admit to their own foolishness in the first place, especially when many users on here tried to logically breakdown his shady business practices.

    F that noise.

    you didn't read between the lines?

    TMZayed, might be a good time to perhaps just sit and listen for a bit.

    Thanks for noticing. I'm beginning to think that Reza is a sharper stick than I initially thought. Surely he knows that his pool of victims has the same or at least similar set of values and overall moral compass (needle pointing to "zero") as his own. Since he is only stealing a little ($97/monthly) from a whole herd of like-minded get rich quick schemers... who really cares in the end? In a couple of those bizarre ranting videos that have been linked above, he basically says that in no uncertain terms.

    Reza keeps throwing around that he has 3500 "students". If so that means $339,500 is coming in monthly. I wonder what the actual number is.

    And just for posterity. Does anyone still believe he was actually kidnapped?

    Hard to believe when he announces on periscope how only he would be able to make such a quick recovery from such a beatdown.

    but then again his story never lined up, so no surprise there

    Nope.

    http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/144528114-post2204.html

    And this thread is like watching drunk clowns throw punches at each other while they hope that there's a ringmaster nearby. And there isn't.

    Does anyone still believe anything legal is going to happen to Reza? Or that some noose is tightening?

    IMPORTANT: Mentortips Refund: [copy and pasted] "I have gotten my money back! I paid 997 and support told me I cant get a refund b/c it's past 10 days. I'm in the states and my bank is Wells Fargo. I called them and showed the evidence that you have provided (thank you) and I got my money back. Also telling them to search "mentortips" on google and seeing Forex Peace Army: Mentortips Warning page tremendously helped."
    This is a DM from Brian Kim.
