BefoundJobs

Just another one of Greigs scams. Greig is a smooth talking snake oil salesman who will burn you at some stage. Save yourself the aggravation.

I spent $500 for connection with "super-connectors", which yielded nothing. That package also promised SEO of my resume, which I don't believe was ever done. I actually believe that LinkedIn is mostly useless for finding a job. BeFoundJobs offers no statistics of success, and largely operates on an "upsell" scheme, i. E., they ask you to buy more, expensive products, promising a better return (changes of getting a job). Stay away from this organization.

I purchased Greg's software from him and initially it worked so-so. I have been having an issue with it now for over 2 weeks and reached out to his company for help and am sure glad I did not purchase his full plan because after you pay your money to them you are on your own

Tried the site just wanted to see if it would help... complete rip off did not live up to anything that was promised on the call. STAY AWAY...

I have a strong suspicion positive reviews are from the sleazy owner of this business Craig. Better invest this money in your own education. This service will do nothing for you. Horrible horrible.

To save decent people some time, here is all you need to know about the "BefoundJobs" racket.

The person behind this - "Greig Wells" --has a canned approach he has been using for years to suck money out of the pockets of job seekers.

It is premised on his webinar - all of which are recorded, not live.-- that follow the same script, First Greig opens up telling the audience he is going to "blow their minds" with secrets on how to use Linkedin to find a job. During that opening, he also states that he is going to share special "killer tips" at the very end of the session (which is a time worn gimmick to fool attendees into sitting through what they will soon see is a hard sell pitch),

Greg then goes through superficial descriptions of how to get noticed by employers on Linked in, advising it is the only place on earth firms seeking talent look for candidates. He then warns the viewer that unless they employ his specific techniques they will never have a chance of getting employed, That is followed by a supposed picture of an inbox full of emails from his clients saying "I got a job, thanks Greig:

He then goes in for the kill, stating that trying to use his approaches on your own is impossible but that he has his crack team ready to do it all for you for a gaizllion dollars He then uses the old "fake discount" trick, saying that during this webinar only he offering a massive price cut, where the program he is pitching can be purchased for "only" $999.

But then it gets even better: Greig now says he going to do Q&A, You then hear him quote fake names, such as "Bob wants to know if the program is guaranteed to get you a job", etc.-- then Greig breathlessly announces "my staff has alerted me we are about to sell out the program, which has only 50 spots." That is followed by by an announcement that the program is sold out - but not for long, as the host "responds" to some supposed attendee has just stated he somehow made a mistake and purchased three spots, which leads our "host" to state "there are still two spots. Available, so go to my buy now link right now."

By now anyone with brain understands something stinks and leaves the webinar. And if you go to the "buy now" link two hours later you will see it still open for business. In fact, if you check next morning, it's still offering spots.

But Greig isn't done yet, Anyone who made the mistake of signing up for the webinar starts getting nasty follow up emails from Greig, stating you will never get a a job without signing up for his program - which is again "sold out", but you can apply using a link to get on a wait list.

So again, run, don't walk away from any email you get from this guy inviting you to attend his webinar.

Can I give ZERO Stars? I sat through a 2 1/2 hour webinar. He had a lot of good information. However, all this ended up being was an infomercial. Promises were made to show strategies on how to improve yourself. When it came to reveal those strategies, they were quickly glossed over and they went on to their "service". Of course, its going to cost you $1000+ to get this info. Don't advertise for a "free" webinar and then require to purchase something. If you have no job, most likely you don't have an extra $1000 laying around. People were being told to "just put it on a credit card". Great, ruin your credit while you're at it! Judging from some of the reviews I've read here and on the BBB site, I'm glad I only wasted 2 1/2 hours of my time and not any money. I would advise you stay far away from this company.

What a waste of money. The resume/linked update was OK. The free seminars are a joke. Mostly they are promotional events for his services. They are mostly offered during the mid day so unless you are unemployed, forget it. He does not record them either.

I paid for the upgrade and it was supposed to include a back-up of the linkedin contacts, I never got that and emails asking about it are ignored by the support stall.

I paid about $400 and got my LinkedIn optimization done. The session was good, and I got more connections. However, there was no actual lead to a job. I feel that I am connecting to BeFound's clients who are looking for jobs as well. I also got several advertisement messages from the connections that I don't know and don't want.

I do not get any more view nor job lead as advertised. Not worth the money.

Pd $397 with expectation of increase in interview contacts. Rec'd LinkedIn profile optimization, so far so good. Thought resume needed "pump up service" to help getting responses so pd $195 for that. Instructions on how to get it to them so they could revamp it were incomplete. Had no way to get them started so That I could post new version on sites. 5 em's sent to them, 5 vm's left, no responses re what I needed. Time is short, need to be interviewing not waiting on the way to get resume to them. Realizing this may be a scam I had bank cancel cr card acct # so they could not bill me for additional svcs. If not a scam then hard to get anywhere with these people. Should have researched them before doing bus w/ that company. Did not need that crap while job searching. Bad experience.

Are you kidding? I paid, I scheduled and they cancelled. No call back number - no way to contact them... 4 emails sent and none returned...
Certainly feels like a scam!
