Revisiting Jake Paul's Team 1000 Scam

Feb 27, 2020
Hey kid, welcome back to the new year 20/20, new me, hell no. I'm still kind of in the spirit of entering a new decade and looking back at the 2010s and all the fun times we had. I want to start this year by reviewing some of the topics I've talked about on this channel over the last three years and seeing if things have gotten better, worse or changed at all and today we'll start by looking back at the EDD creep, which was one of the most blatant

scam

s I've seen from a YouTuber which, interestingly, didn't affect Jake Paul at all, I guess, because he was quite busy with other scandals at the time I called him about it in 2018, but I haven't addressed. since then and since it's been so long, I'll get diems on Twitter every now and then asking me to post an update and I'm also curious to see what has come of his

scam

to see if they've done anything. to validate the cost or change everything so we'll look at that today first though let me quickly recap what

team

1000

actually was or I guess it wasn't because it was nothing so at the end of 2017 Jake started advertising on his channel. his news service called ed fluence where for a small fee of just $7 you can learn all the tips and tricks he has used to become the most hated youtuber in the world, the thing is once you pay the $7 you think of yourself and then you unlock all this. additional content, you were immediately shown a second screen asking you to pay an additional $57 to unlock everything you thought you had just purchased, so at that point you could just give up and forget about the $7 you just bought. waste on nothing or because you're a kid and you're using your mom's credit card, you can just click the big button that says pay an extra amount of money because you have no concept of money, which is another $57 of money It doesn't mean anything to you, you never have. you had a job, you're a kid and then once you click the button they automatically charge you again because it already has your mom's credit card information saved on the smaller previous payment website and you're very shady , it's not great, but that was just the scam part, once you got on the real website with all this new content, it was very obvious right away that Jake filmed all of this in one afternoon and was trash talking for most of it. time, oh you're what mom you're watching this and of course oh my god you're exploding mom oh my god yes I know because everything in this course is correct you should follow it click but the most disappointing and confusing element of this website was Team

1000

, which is like Team 10 but with more zeroes, was a big part of Jake's speech on Ed fluence, basically saying that for a few dollars you could join Team 1000, which he described vaguely enough as if to pique the interest of young fans without actually telling what it really was and finally the big reveal comes, once you've paid $64 to join what you thought was the 1000

team

you click on the tab that says team 1000 only to find out that team 1000 will arrive soon, which is usually not the case. how the transactions work, reminds me a little of that episode of Nathan for You where he sold alcohol to minors, but they couldn't actually drink alcohol until they turned 21, except it wasn't as funny when Jake did it in general.

Edie fluence 1000 team, whatever you want to call it, kind of stinky if you ask me, but it's been two years since I posted this video, which I think leaves us a long way from the window all of a sudden, so the million dollar question is : Did team 1000 ever arrive? I don't like the way I phrased what happened to team 1000. Are you kidding me? If you are a visitor, please contact the website owner or try again later. Well, there is no contact information for the owner of the website, so I don't think he can. To do that, I don't think he can just call them on the phone if I don't have their number.

To see this, this will come true. You just need a vision and a fan base. Okay, this definitely sounds very different from Ed fluence. Ed fluence was willing to target anyone who gave him money, it didn't matter if he was already an established creator or not. It sounds like you need to be an established creator and have a fan already and then they will help you rank. like an MCN or any type of management company you'd approach expecting help with logistical things like this, so at this point I'm invested. I'm curious. I have to see what the behavior is, so I'll click get. in contact, fill out all this information and now I guess we'll just wait for a response, this could take a while so it's been a whole week since I sent that request and the response I got was nothing, I'm not really surprised.
In fact, after a couple of days I sent in another application pretending to be Summer Rae, but girl on Instagram with like 20 million followers, I thought she would have fit in really well. She wanted to sell hats with her butt on it and say what is she. that smell is mine, but interestingly that great idea wasn't enough to provoke a response, so I'm going to assume that no one has a behavior anymore and they don't exist, so we went from IDI creep to behavior to nothing in a matter of two years, I'm so interested in this, I don't know why more people don't talk about this, how could you just sell something and then act like it's going to keep growing and keep expanding and then you'll never make it? good with the promises you made and then get rid of the unfinished version, but that's Jake Paul in a nutshell, the best marketer on the internet, he's not a creator, he's a salesman, let's be honest, he's a business person who is always trying of selling a product, whether it's his merchandise or his online courses or himself, he's a salesman, that's what he is if YouTube never worked, I have no doubt that he would be working as a Toyota dealership right now, offering you Priuses , perhaps after dominating social media for a couple of years.
He wanted to take on the biggest challenge of his, but he wanted to sell the ultimate product, you give him money and he gives you nothing and maybe he just wanted to see how many people he could get to buy it. I mean, it's amazing how powerful a good sales pitch can be. Often, the marketing of something is much more important than what you are actually selling. I think a lot of people tend to buy things based on the look of the packaging or the color scheme of the logo. using Old Spice deodorant for years just because I thought their commercials were funny.
Edy fluence was packaged in a really attractive way for the young fans of him. He used all the right words and added a couple of obvious manipulation tactics that they missed. You don't follow the roadmap and there is simply no chance of you making it to team 1000 or maybe even as a social media influencer and they bought what he was selling. I guess he sold thousands, maybe tens of thousands of subscription packages, you can scroll through YouTube and watch countless videos like my Edy fluence journey, the first day you join team 10 or team 1000 and then fast forward a year and You can't even access the website anymore, it just disappeared, in fact it was almost exactly a year. launched the website in December 2018 and sometime between August 2018 and January 2019 it was downgraded to an error screen, oh but not before we launched a couple of last minute clearance sales to see if we can get it out a few more dollars. this and then disappeared into the night never to be seen again, well that's not true.
One of my favorite tactics he used to try to sell ed fluence was to quote a Chinese proverb and then say "look, that's why you have to give me $64 for this." Ancient wisdom, what a crazy connection to try and make. I feel like that's like trying to use Socrates as a testimony, let him say that he would move the world first on a new bicycle, you know how I know that behavior is if it's a service that handles merchandising operations and was started by Jake Paul, why Doesn't Jake use it? He uses fan joy, he's been using fan joy for years to sell his merch, he doesn't even use his own service, so why would people trust him, speaking of which. which let's see which creators are doing well, I'm starting to notice a theme here, well, I don't know what to say about this anymore.
I mean, the fact that they got rid of Ed fluence is kind of a fitting ending to the saga, but it also means that I don't really have anything to react to before finishing, although I did say I wanted to revisit some things from the that I've talked about in the past, not just this and even though I scroll through my previous videos. There aren't many things that are interesting to me in terms of keeping track. One of my favorite videos I've ever made was called Why Did You Think This Would Work? These were a lot of apps where people were frustrated. they didn't work although any rational human being could tell you of course it wouldn't work it's an what I had to do for this one is start taking the test by clicking on this blurry button, like when you buy a normal pregnancy test that you lie on, there's a mid-roll ad, okay?
It's going to scan my finger, it's my fingers, it's, do it, I know now that I've got it out of the way, it's time to answer the question, boy or girl, do you have it, let's find out what this is, oh, that's my stomach So what is this here if this is my stomach, my penis and my balls? I knew it, it's a girl, a beautiful fetus. Wait, this developer also has an app called baby thoughts simulator. I must know what my baby is thinking. Well, no. I don't have a baby yet, but I do have a doobie, so let's scan it.
What we are going to be thinking about is scanning. Thanks for the update. I went to sleep. That's all you do. Let's try this again. It's scanning. I want to sleep. Is this the only one? answer they scheduled today now the only thing left to discover is what this baby girl will look like so let's get to the bottom of that using the future baby why would she need notifications? Wait, babies don't wink. Babies don't have secrets. photo here yeah, well, I wanted to crop that one out, but okay, so I guess I'm the mom too.
I have to pay five dollars a week to see my future baby. However, I knew that this app would not give an accurate image before downloading it. I'm black, the other person was also black, how can we create twin white babies? The babies were adorable, but I thought I'd merge with the other parents to create a baby photo, I don't have someone's actual baby photo, well that's unfortunate I guess. We'll keep it a mystery, so I don't know what my beautiful baby girl will look like until the day she crawls out of my ass. I guess there's not much else to talk about with Ed fluence, I mean.
I can only react to an error page for so long. I think it's a beautiful ending to the saga, as I said, there's nothing more to say about it, but I have a few words to say about today's sponsor. In fact, I love my data. My data is probably my best friends in the whole world, so I need to keep it safe. I can't have an internet guy here trying to sniff my data and find out what it smells like, but that's my business. I use expressvpn to help protect my data from theNair hackers reside with my Internet Service Provider, who is always trying to collect all the information they can about me so they can sell it to the highest bidder, which is usually me.
I like to buy Use expressvpn again. I can make sure nothing comes between me and my valuable data, but Expressive Hand is also useful for unlocking content that may not be available in your region, like Netflix shows that are only in other countries. It also works with live sports. For some reason the NBA has this rule where I can't watch Magic games because I live in Orlando and I guess they think I can turn on the TV and watch it there. Well, it's a joke on you and BA. I don't have cable. I'm a millennial but using the power of expressvpn with just a couple of clicks I can change my phone location to a completely different city and now I can watch my team lose, talk about a grand slam, this rescue man has consistently faster speeds and other VPNs available, making it the best option.
My pick for a VPN, if that's something you're looking to use, find out how you can get three months free. from expressvpn by clicking the link in the description which is expressvpn comm slash draw which is my name. I wish you already knew, you already knew, and I'll see them on the world wide web. Now go back to my chair, which is right here. Thank you all very much for watching this video. Sorry, it wasn't as climactic as I expected. I guess 2020 is off to a bit of a disappointing start, but that means there's nowhere to go, but wait, wait before you get out of here.
I just want to say one more thing, please like my Facebook page. How about 10k there? That would mean a lot to me because I don't really post there or use it all. I don't log in and I don't respond to any of the messages, but it would mean the world.
