TextBot AI (a program promoted via the weblink 100Dollars.ai) tells you that their “AI chatbot will pay you $100 over & over again”… But will it really?

TextBot AI Website ScreenshotIn short, no, not quite.

In this honest TextBot AI review I’ll be uncovering the truth about how the whole thing really works, why I believe you shouldn’t get involved & what the dangers are if you do.

I’ll also be uncovering the truth about the TextBot AI scam rumours & sharing a legitimate alternative that you can use instead (without having to pay $100 upfront, like at TextBot AI).

What Is TextBot AI?

TextBot AI essentially portrays itself as being a piece of automated money-making software & you’re led to believe that it’ll pay you commissions of $100 over & over again, all on complete autopilot.

All need to do is sign up, enter your number, pay $100 & then the automated chatbot will get to work & earn you money, or so you’re led to believe.

The problem?

Well, I actually discovered this new program via a spam link that somebody left in a comment on my review of the Share The Number scam.

Somebody, going only by the name of Karen decided to tell me the following:

I actually like and considered joining sharethenumber, but never did. But I do know others who are doing very well with a similar program (referral link to TextBot AI removed) which is pretty cool and adds more value. But thanks for the review.

And let me pick out the problems with that comment.

Firstly, “Karen” said that she actually liked sharethenumber, which is a known scam. It’s a blatant pyramid scheme that recruits new members primarily via text message.

Secondly, “Karen” then went on to a share a referral link to the newly launched TextBot AI scam in a blatantly desperate effort to get new people to join via her link in order to earn a commission.

So here’s what’s happened…

  1. “Karen” has joined TextBot AI, which leads you to believe that it’ll provide you with an easy, automated way to make $100 commissions over & over again every single day.
  2. She’s since realized that it’s not really automated & that you have to recruit new members in order to earn money.
  3. She’s now spending her days leaving spam comments on blogs on the internet in the hope to try to get new members joining (but failing, because website owners like me are simply removing the links).

Not good.

But nevertheless, let’s take a closer look into exactly how it all really works.

How Does TextBot AI Work?

TextBot AI essentially promises to provide 2 uses. Firstly, it promises to provide a way to help business owners to promote their businesses via automated text messages.

Secondly, it promises to provide people who don’t have a business with an easy way to “make $100 commissions over & over again” through automated text messages.

TextBot AI Income Claim

The primary push, however, is on the second “use”.

Realistically, the creator of TextBot AI wants you to sign up, pay $100 to the person that referred you and then get others to do exactly the same, in typical pyramid-scheme fashion.

It’s very similar to other known scams like Easy 1 Up, Share The Number & Profits Passport.

The creators of these things try to make it seem like there is a real, genuine product being sold but in reality, the primary focus is just on the income-making opportunity.

Nobody (or at most, very few) people joining these things are joining for the “product”. They’re joining for the opportunity to refer others in an attempt to earn commissions at their expense.

But the problem is that because of the pyramid-shaped structure to these schemes, the only people that really end up truly benefitting from them are those positioned at the top.

The majority of other people that join below them will just find themselves paying money into the scheme & never actually earning anything back.

And even if you believe that it is a legit MLM (as many members of these types of schemes try to convince themselves), then let me tell you that the average success rate is still only a mere 1%, according to a report published by the FTC:

MLM Failure Rate

The concept with this particular program, however, is that an “automated chatbot” will do the work on your behalf so that you’ll (allegedly) be much more likely to see success.

In short, this means that your job will be to get people to enter their phone number into the 100Dollars.ai website & then the chatbot will begin sending them spam via text message, promoting your link.

If they happen to sign up & pay money, that money gets paid directly to you (which raises yet another problem that you’ll see outlined further down below).

But I can tell you as an experienced online marketer that it is extremely difficult to get people to enter their real phone number into a random online website.

It’s even more difficult to get them to enter it into a website that looks as suspicious as the TextBot AI scam.

This means that more than likely, you’ll just find yourself $100 down & stuck spinning your wheels trying to recruit people, just like “Karen” who I mentioned further up.

How Much Does TextBot AI Cost?

In order to get started with TextBot AI you’ll need to pay $100. The idea is that you pay $100 to the person that referred you, then you try to refer others & get them to pay $100 to you.

They call the $100 the “setup fee”, but in reality, it’s not funding anything to do with the setup because it’s just going straight to the member that referred you.

Take a look:

TextBot AI Member Payment

Then, once you’ve paid the $100 you are still not yet finished as you need to buy further “Usage Credits”.

These so-called “Usage Credits” are used to pay for your rental of the chatbot’s mobile number & for each message that it sends out. This means that you’ll need to keep regularly topping up your account with more & more “Usage Credits” if you want to keep trying to earn money.

Can You Actually Make Money With It?

The truth is that yes, it’s technically possible to make money through the Textbot AI scam, but ultimately you will just be earning money by tricking people into joining a pyramid scheme.

Furthermore, all payments made via TextBot AI are made directly member-to-member.

The reason for this is because the creator of the system cannot get approved by merchants to manage payments because processors like PayPal do not work with such scams.

If he tried to take PayPal payments, PayPal would quickly shut his account down & the members of TextBot AI would no longer be able to get paid.

So to get around this, he has enabled direct member to member payments… But this is not a “fix”, it just simply means that you’re taking on the risk of receiving payments instead of him.

It means that YOUR accounts will be at risk of getting shut down instead, and it also means that you’ll have to deal with all of the complaints when people claim that they’ve been scammed and that they’ve paid YOU.

YOU essentially become the scammer, as opposed to the creator of the system. It’s a cunning trick for the creator to escape the liability & pass it down onto you instead.

That aside though, these are the methods of payments TextBot AI works with:

  • Google Pay
  • Cash App
  • Venmo
  • Bitcoin (via Coinbase)
  • Stripe
  • Zelle
  • Paypal

Is TextBot AI a Scam?

The creator has gone to great lengths to make it seem like there is a real product in place but it’s quite clear that the primary focus is simply on investing money & getting others to do the same.

There is no real focus on any “product” here. It’s a pyramid scheme.

It’s just the latest version of other similar scams that have come before it, such as Easy 1 Up & Share The Number. This type of thing should be avoided at absolutely all costs.

The truth is that these things are built around gimmicks and hype. They all try to claim they have something special that’ll enable you to make money really easily, like the “automated chatbot”.

But it’s nonsense. If you want to earn money, you must be prepared to put in real work… There are no 2 ways about it & the sooner you learn that the sooner you’ll start making real money.

So if you’re ready to stop chasing shortcuts & gimmicky systems & actually put in the work instead of making excuses, I’d highly recommend you check out my guide on affiliate marketing.

Through affiliate marketing, you can build up a legitimate income online by connecting people with REAL, genuine products, such as products from places like Amazon.

That’s much better than messing around with silly “automated chatbots” that spam peoples phones, right? So be sure to check out the guide here before you go (it’s free!).

And if you have any comments about the TextBot AI scam then, of course, don’t hesitate to leave them below. As always I’ll get back to you as quickly as I can.

A Better Alternative

The sad truth is that unfortunately most of the programs promising to help you make money online are scams. I can say that confidently after exposing over 500+ of them here on this blog.

But the good news is that even though most of them are indeed scams, there are actually some very good programs in amongst them - some programs that can truly help you to earn money.

And out of all of the legit programs I've seen, the one I would recommend the most to anybody looking to get started online is Commission Academy. In my own opinion, that's the best place to start.

At Commission Academy, you'll be provided with everything you need (including the training & tools) to begin earning real money by promoting products or services for companies like Amazon online.

The best part is that there's literally no limit on the amount you can earn with it & the process is pretty simple which means that it's absolutely perfect for people that don't have much experience.

Some wealthy affiliates even earn as much as 5-figures per month... Or more!

Amazon Earnings Example

I mean don't get me wrong, that kind of money won't just fall into your lap without doing any work... But the harder you're willing to work at it, the more you stand to earn with it.

So if you're looking to get started but don't know which route you should go down or which program you should join (and don't want to waste money on bogus things that don't actually work), then I'd highly recommend checking out Commission Academy first. You can learn more about it here.

  1. Damn! I just signed up for TextBot.ai. Guess I am out the $125 (“set up” fee + usage credits) I just paid. I also signed up with Easy1Up ($275), and Karatbars International (nearly $400). On top of that I have been spending 8 hours a day, emailing, messaging, calling, and posting just trying to earn back the money I paid out. I have not earned one dime back of the money I put into these “systems”. When I contact my sponsors I am basically told that I am not putting the work in to make a profit and then they just send me emails showing the profit that they and other members are making. I end up feeling like I am just a failure and too stupid to make the system work for me even though I am putting in more hours than I do at my regular 9 to 5. At this point I am tapped out. I am on furlough due to COVID-19 and now the government is about to cut unemployment insurance benefits. I am just trying to find something to initially supplement my income with the potential to eventually replace it. I am willing to put in the work, I just don’t have anymore money to give.

    Anyway, thank you for the article. I should have been smarter and researched the company BEFORE I paid to get in. Hindsight is the best teacher even though it is a painful one.

      • Yeah I did to sign up with textbot. To me textbot is NOT a scam., if you promote it the correct way. Basically textbot is more for companies. Meaning companies , online business owners yes they can use it but Here is the BIG problem. Promoting it to companies etc. who NEEDS Textbot. Is there a right way to promote textbot yes but it requires that you have to talk to companies explaining why they need Textbot. Those Jeff videos GARBAGE

        Reply
        • “Textbot is not a scam if you promote it the correct way”… I agree that could be the case, but you’re encouraged to promote it by telling people how much money they could also earn by promoting it.

          Reply
          • I have never entered any of these Affiliate programs and I am here as a result of random searches as I am trying to educate myself and get a feel of the Affiliate space in general. I just fail to see the problem with a company paying you to promote their product and then you telling others how they can get paid by doing the same. Is the problem the way it’s promoted? If the delivery/promotion strategy is the concern, the problem is with the promoter, not the product. The product does not promote itself, people do. The product is not vaporware and it does exist. Is it the best in its space? Probably not but it is still a useful tool for any business. What is the alternative? To not promote it or promote it with no reward? I feel there are many scams in this space but I also see many people focusing on the wrong things and many times grouping judging things that do not belong in the same conversation, the problem is that people trying to learn may misunderstand and walk away with a wrong understanding. To be clear, I know you did not say this was a scam. That said, I do get the feeling you do not approve of it and I was not able to understand a good reason for that. Note: I have never used it and can not say if it performs well or not. My response is solely around the perceived issue of getting paid to promote it. That is how Affiliate programs work. If I misunderstood and your point was over the fact that the promotion may lead to believe it’s a system that automatically generates $100 a day, my apologies and I most certainly agree with that. That said, I go back to the beginning of my reply. It’s the promoter, not the product. Thank you so much for your post and views. Truly enjoyed it.

          • If there’s a genuine product in place (and the product would be as valuable without an attached affiliate opportunity) then there wouldn’t be a problem… However, in the instance of TextBot AI, it’s clear that people are simply purchasing it for the opportunity to resell it to others, not because of the value it provides. Without the attached affiliate opportunity, TextBot AI wouldn’t compete with other similar products & there are already many better products being sold at a much cheaper price meaning that TextBot AI doesn’t make for a genuine recommendation.

          • Dale, if not a scam how does one get in touch with them , to actually talk to a live person. If you have that info , please send it to my email.

        • I totally agree i been with this company for 2 months and i have tried everything i have even spent more money to promote the company over all I have spent nearly 500.00 and haven’t received a dime. I’m a stay at mother of 8 children and when i first discovered the company i was so excited to be able to make extra income from home and then here comes the big disappointment because i believe i had did something great this article just broke my heart but i am just mad at myself because i usually do alot of research of products and services before making a purchase and i didn’t because i just knew this was it for me to climb the coporate latter and defeat poverty from every angle. I not going to say it’s a scam but i will say i have Not been successful at all.

      • Dale, If below definition is true on Pyramid…
        “Pyramid schemes are not only illegal; they are a waste of money and time. Because pyramid schemes rely on recruitment of new members to bring in money, the schemes often collapse when the pool of potential recruits dries up” (market saturation)

        However with Easy 1 Up, you only have ‘1 pass up’ to brake even. I’m really trying to comprehend your definition of a pyramid scheme…because you’re being economical with the truth or you’re very crude with your electrical-background.

        Dale, I’d rather suggest you get back to your electrical apprenticeship…because you’re an
        opportunist that abused the virtual platform.
        I’m sure you have enough time to check the difference between CRUDE V REFINE!

        Reply
        • So, ‘1 pass up’ means that you have to recruit at least 2 members to make money? Therefore, as per the definition if you do not manage to recruit any new members you will fail to make any money. That’s why I prefer affiliate marketing, because you immediately earn commissions on your very first sale (no need to ‘pass up’ your commissions to other people).

    • You are too easy to get. someone creates a blog to blackmail another opportunity know himself is trying to sell you on another deal. I read with attention what he said about textbot. AVA is a tool that literals helps you promote anything not just textbot. He says it’s actually not a real product? Oh yeah has Jeff the fonder invented the term digital products or what? He mentions amazon, tones of people are being scammed by digital marketer who are now all coaches and trainers because their actual ” real” business doesn’t work. So what they do is sell you on some courses/ formula to go start your own amazon or Shopify successful stores when in reality their own isn’t even successful. It’s easy to teach and not earn any loss than risking to invest their own money, they live off of courses they sell. Same here he is trying to sell us on affiliate marketing. Their mission is to discredit any other business out there. You let me tell you this. Textbot, amazon, shopify, its the same. A real business doesn’t make a profit the first 5 years have you never heard about that? its mostly a learning curve you need to accept. Make mistake and learn. But its unfortunate that we invest $100 and make no money the first 30 to 60 days and we feel like crying already thats hilarious. But we spend the same amount on shoes and watches we dont complain when the watch gets broken or stolen cause there is nobody to blame. Its a looser mentality. Let me tell you this business is hard everywhere let no one fool you. Amazon takes not less than 5 k to set up a good stores so after investing that and it doesn’t work will you commit suicide? Because here you are crying over some $125? Don’t let nobody play with your emotions that’s what this guy here is doing. Can he guaranty you will make money with his real business?? no he can’t. He will tell you he exact thing put more work. AVA is an actual real business cause there is work involved. Ava the robot doesn’t go out there and bring money to you. any business needs to be promoted to have clients or associates period. Be happy you must invested $100 and not 5k given to these liars all over internet telling you they can set up a successful amazon, shopify for you. If so why is that they dont go ahead and do it themselves and make that money they want to make you earn? Use your common sense.

      • Okay, so my question to you is why would you pay that much money for TextBot, when there are MANY other apps that do exactly the same function at a much lower cost? And if the answer is “because you can make money by selling TextBot to others”, then that sums up my problem.

        Reply
          • Sendlane & ClickSend provide the same services at a much lower cost & a quick Google search reveals a whole load of other providers that offer much lower rates.

          • Exactly I made $7,000 with text bot I don’t know what people are talking about you need to actually work on it

        • Come on Dale l respect your blogging but with any network marketing online program something has to be sold to make money and you have to pay either with your time or money to promote, aka free or paid marketing…

          As long as the product being sold does what it’s advertised to do then you got what you paid for.

          Reply
          • I agree that you get what you paid for, but there is no need to pay “over the odds” which is a common trend when it comes to network marketing opportunities. Many network marketing companies just massively inflate prices to pay out commissions to distributors, therefore essentially ripping off the consumers.

          • Hello Ivy, your comment is already published. I don’t really see how checking comments for spam makes somebody manly, but thanks for the compliment all the same.

    • I definitely understand Ive watched about 10 videos with 2 hours presentation to only learn they want so much to share their SECRET. I will find a way to make passive income and quit being a insurance agent and when I do I’ll comment here again. Good luck everyone who is on that journey to success and freedom

            Also, cheers for this review bud!
            I see this being promoted everywhere, and I seriously thought it was very obvious that if they are claiming you will make atleast $100 a day, that is the least amount you are going to need to invest.

            Thank you,
            Jonny

        • You are an idiot. How is there Not a real product when text message marketing platform. I generate leads for my textbot business and my main business.

          It is all about text message marketing. I sell it Realtors, credit repair agents, and insurance agents looking to generate inbound mobile leads.

          Reply
          • I didn’t say there isn’t any real product. I said there isn’t any real focus on the product. The focus is quite clearly on the attached income opportunity, which is why EVERY person here in the comments sticking up for TextBot AI is also promoting it (as you are yourself). I’ve not met one single person that has said positive things about TextBot, without being affiliated with it.

        • Good luck finding the place where I’m supposedly luring people into an “opportunity”. All I’m doing is offering free resources on how to generate revenue (through various means) online. No “opportunity” here. For example, you could simply go ahead & learn affiliate marketing. All free 🙂

          Reply
          • I believe that anyone who claims a person can earn good money through affiliate marketing without spending some considerable bucks on marketing/selling/promoting/advertising is just plain lying. Sure, its free to sign up as an affiliate, but just try and make decent money without spending money – uh uh! Your advice may be “free”, but the business will not be “free” if they want any decent results in this lifetime. That’s how you’re misleading people with your posts.

          • Sorry Elliott, but you’re wrong on that one. I started my business (and made it a success) with just a $3/mo investment in web-hosting & a ~$15 investment on a domain name. Sure, I had to work hard to make it happen but I managed to make it happen all the same & my training goes over exactly what I did. If you want to see the “proof”, just follow my training… It’s right there in black & white.

  2. Thank you for the detailed info on textbot, it is definitely something to avoid. I’ve looked at Wealthy Affiliate before and I see how well everything is organized. I’m just thinking, of all the people signing up at WA, all of them getting their own pages up, why would they(or how?) succeed in a sea of already very well made and optimazed sites that get all the traffic? Every single product is already advertised on some website that is much more popular than the new ones that are being created. Honestly, I’m not even thinking about wealth or big numbers. Even a few hundred would be more than enough, but it seems impossible to get there. Checking out WA, one would notice that they treat thousands as “Oh no problem! That’s easy!”.. Are they all geniuses or am I dumb?

    Reply
    • You mention the word “sea”, and that’s the best way to think about it – like an ocean, because the opportunity is SO vast. There are thousands of brand new searches being made every day & thousands of new products being launched every single day. Plenty of opportunity for anybody & everybody to tap into it without competing with each other (hence why I recommend it). With regards to your mention of thousands being no problem, I think you’ve got confused about that bit as Wealthy Affiliate makes NO income claims whatsoever. That’s one of the main things that separates it from all of the other programs – it’s very honest & upfront.

      Reply
      • Thank you for your quick reply, Dale! You are right, they make no income claims, I just phrased it badly. I should’ve said that they believe that making those numbers is possible, not certain. They are indeed honest and upfront. You actually gave me an idea since I wasn’t thinking in the right direction. I will check out the other things you’ve written about. Thank you again.

  3. Are you aware of the possible damages that may be owed due to slander and defamation? I think Textbot May have a case since you are damaging their brand by labeling it a scam. It is a legitimate company that renders a service. Be careful. You have the right to your own opinion but when you are on a public platform purposely damaging someone’s brand to get views that is unethical on your part. If I were you I would play it safe and remove this post before their corporate office gets a wind on what you are doing. You are welcome on the advice.

    • I’ve had several cases made against me in the past, all of which were ultimately ruled in my favour for protecting consumers. When it comes to protecting consumers, I am very stubborn & I will always fight their corner to the end. I appreciate that there may be people who “believe in” recruitment based schemes, but the facts are that the majority of people who join such schemes end up losing money (as outlined in my quote from the FTC report further up in this post).

      Reply
      • Lol did you say protect consumers??
        That’s BS and you know it.what you are doing is promoting WA, that’s all WA does is go around calling every biz opportunity a scam that’s why I left WA .And no I’m not affiliated with textbot, I just get tried of the bate and switch.

  4. This is one of many shiny objects out there. I have learned to read between the lines and what specific words mean. When I see the word “literally” or “activate free traffic” on the sales page I close it. I have worked in the IT Security Research field for many years, so I think that I have quite a good experience with search and research the Internet. All those “Gurus” who try to convince people that they need to change their “Mindset” so they can be successful. What a BS. And all those free webinars, where Gurus peach the program they want to sell for thousands of dollars. Is it so? Of course not. They know that they cannot get hundreds of people to buy it from the webinar. They simply want to get people to the webinar so they get people on their list. And to this list, they offer another offer wich costs less, afterwords. It is a simple number game. As far I know there is only one income setup and ready system, which is the exactly copy of what the 7 figures marketers have used for many years, and the costs is under $50/month, included everything. Landing pages, ready-made funnels, autoresponder files for a year etc.

    Reply
    • You’re right about this particular program being another shiny object – but with regards to the “income setup & ready system” you mention, unfortunately, there’s no such thing. If you want to earn money online you MUST put in work, there are no 2 ways about it. Whether it be by making strategic investments, by selling products, or by promoting products as an affiliate etc… It all takes work.

      Reply
      • You are right there Dale. It depends on how much work you need to put in to make some sales. There are two methods. Method where the gurus “teach you how to change your mindset to be successful, where you have to invest lots of money to start, and if you are a newbie(I was there), always is some toll witch missing and yo have to buy it, or the method where you get the whole system on the silver plate, every toll included and work perfectly together. And if this system is an exact copy of the multi 7 figure per year, programmer and marketer. Which one will you choose? In both cases, you need to add traffic. And if you get knowledge which traffic method and source he uses in this copy of his own business, then it’s no brainer what I will choose. BTW, I self is a member of this system for a long time, so I know what I am talking about.

  5. I notice that Wealthy Affiliate members are behind the hate of all other programs. It never fails for the review to be negative and you refer someone to a recommended program. Is that what they teach you guys? If so then they aren’t worth even joining. For anyone reading this who isn’t stupid and have half a brain Textbot.ai is not a scam. The text bot chat software works fine and this fool would know that if he was a member. It works just like it’s advertised. Every system and product either has an affiliate program or direct payment plan for members to resell it. THAT DOESN’T MAKE IT A SCAM OR WRONG! The truth is the truth. Stop writing negative blog posts based on opinion. It promote your business and you can resell it to other people.

    Reply
    • Wealthy Affiliate members are not behind the hate of all other programs. There are plenty of legitimate programs that I recommend here on this website – I just don’t recommend the scams (and advise people to steer clear of them so that they don’t lose their cash). You mention “every system has a direct payment plan” but that’s simply not true. Direct member to member payments is one of the most obvious tell-tale signs of a scam, as it provides a way for the scam operators to get around merchants blocking their business models (by passing the risk to the members instead).

      Reply
      • Every time I peruse on the internet it’s only the affiliates of Wealthy Affiliates that are bashing other brands. I’m starting to believe Wealthy Affiliates is really the scam. If you a promoter of a superior product there is no need to bash the competition (textbot can actually help build your business btw) especially when there is no proof of your claims outside of your personal opinion. It’s unethical and I question the authors of blogs more than the brand that is being unknowingly slandered. The last that I have checked direct sales is member to member? 🙄 How is direct sales on an online platform a scam? I think the focus should be showing the benefits and features of your affiliate product as opposed to discrediting legitimate businesses in order to get business. Be ethical in your business practice and get traffic by highlighting how much Wealthy Affiliates have benefited you instead of defaming other brands.

        • I’m not “bashing other brands”, I’m publishing content to help protect people (primarily newcomers) from losing money. The simple truth, in short, is that TextBot AI makes it seem like you can make $100 over & over again, very easily… And that’s NOT the reality. The reality is that most people joining will simply go on to spend more money than they ever actually manage to make back. If you’d like to see the benefits & features of Wealthy Affiliate, feel free to check out my review here in which I outline them. And my review also covers my complaints, too.

          Textbot is a pos company and i fell for its garbage.

  6. But you cannot categorized it as a (Scam) just because you yourself have to promote it. Im sure this makes for good clickability but unless a business is scaming money from people which textbot.ai clearly isn’t then wild acusations like this are simply you being upset that she posted somewhere she shouldn’t have.

    Reply
    • No, I did not. The important point is you missed out is that I believed the focus to be on simply signing up & then recruiting others to do the same, rather than providing a product that can be genuinely useful outside of the opportunity.

  7. Here we go. Another Wealthy Affiliate member bashing another program to promote their Wealthy Affiliate link. I was a member of Wealthy Affiliate. Do you notice that all the members write reviews about companies they know little about just to promote their link and get you to join a membership that teaches you to do the exact same thing?

    I’m not a member of textbot ai, but it is not a pyramid scheme. Yes, most MLM’s are. But textbot is not an MLM. It has a 1 up payout structure and that’s it. There are no percentage payouts via a downline. If I sign someone up, I get their 2nd sale. That’s it. I don’t get anything from them after that. Get your facts straight.

    • I’m actually really grateful for this comment because it gave me a really good laugh. In the same paragraph, you said it’s not an MLM (multi-level-marketing) but then proceeded to say that you get passed up sales from the people that you refer, which blatantly means that it does indeed pay out over multiple levels.

      So that’s confirmation that it’s an MLM, and as you also said in your comment, most MLM’s are pyramid schemes (according to you)… Right?

      Reply
      • Dale, I hate to tell you this, but according to the Law, paying (or passing up) 1 sale does NOT make it a pyramid scheme. Actually, the Law states that it is a pyramid scheme if more than 2 sales have to be passed up. Therefore, not all MLMs or Network Marketing systems are scams (or even unethical).

        Where I believe the whole problem resides is with the system itself. I don’t mean the WA system, TextBot system, or any single system on the internet. I mean the entire World Wide Web AND the internet system combined.

        Why?

        Because now that the internet is pretty much established as a crucial segment in the lives of everyone on this planet that literally no one in civilized society can do without, it has done very little to make live any better for anybody except the very wealthy and the politicians they have in their back pockets.

        Think about it!

        Look at how much of your Civil Liberties and Freedom have we lost since the activation of the Internet and the creation of “The Internet of Things,” Cell phones, Smart watches, or Smart anything for that matter. It’s ALL about the all-mighty dollar! There is more lying, deceit, scams, Info without proof, burglaries, irresponsibility, lack of empathy and love, etc. on the internet than I have witnessed on/in any other venue during my lifetime so far. Just for kicks I’ll tell you I am well over 60 years old. Oh, Yea… am I really 60+? Or, am I 20+, 10+? You see what I mean???

        Therefore, I have trouble trying to understand why all you people even bother arguing about making money on line when you know as well as I do the ones you call the “Gurus” are the ones laughing all the way to the bank while you will continue to suffer with useless lives because you will end up being miserable with the mere pittance they allow you to make. That’s Right! THEY ALLOW you to make. AND it does NOT matter if you choose WA, or TextBot, or any other system/program to work/promote. YOU will always be a wage slave. The only difference will be whether you work for yourself or someone else. Will you work from home or from an outside office. Plus, remember, whatever choice you make, they can take it away from you any time they like, for any reason they like, or for no reason at all. AND THERE’S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!!!

        So, why don’t you all try to help each other by being diligent, partner-up, get rid of competition by becoming partners, sharing information, strategies and systems, etc.. AND… above all else… STOP all the LIES & DECEIT!!! If something works, share it! If it doesn’t, tell the truth!!! Give your fellow businessman a heads-up, and then let them decide what to do next. Stop beating them and yourself over the head. Keep well informed, make a decision, and move on!

  8. I seriously don’t understand how you can say Textbot.ai is a scam when it is clearly a service that works great to promote any business. I sell this service to other Internet Marketers as a way for them to promote their primary business and have gotten back tons of great feedback, even though many of them don’t promote the bot themselves they set it up to use to promote their program. IE the other day someone signed up to sell her salon products. She is now promoting her textbot.ai number and the text-word and when people call that number or text the word they start getting real time conversations about her salon products texted to their phone. How is that a scam? Because I made $100 when she bought the software off me? Its ridiculous that you label a great software as a scam just because it has an affiliate program to it. Also its not even MLM.
    Textbot.ai is a fantastic software and people can make a lot of money selling it because so many other people need it, and it can be used by any business to automate text messaging to their (potential) clients. You should get your fact straight before bashing another company just to sell your own affiliate program.

  9. This article is so typical. I have been in at least 10 different businesses. Most of the time when you find someone calling a business a scam, you can always find them promoting their own scam. I have no idea if this one is a scam, but it is such a nasty marketing ploy. Often people who do this are failures they were trying to steal business from other companies

    Reply
    • You’ve been in at least 10 different businesses? Sounds like you’re doing something wrong then. Unless when you refer to “businesses”, you mean schemes… Then that would be more understandable as you’ve probably had to move to different ones when they’ve been closed down. Either way, thank you for sharing your insight – I really appreciate your comment.

  10. Ok. Stop you are all wrong text bot ai is a great program. Please try it for your self. I’ve made hundreds of dollars with this and its a nice program. Just cause you already have millions of dollars. DONT BASH THE SMALL COMPANYS,

  12. NEVER trust the words of a person seeking to sell you something at the expense of debunking another person’s product. They are simply looking to pull customers from their competitors.

    Reply
  13. Whoa, this has to be one of the most misleading write ups I’ve seen regarding a product.

    Textbot.AI isn’t a scam or a pyramid scheme. Pyramid schemes aren’t even structured like this. And you’re saying “seem” doesn’t make anything a scam. That’s just an opinion not held up by law. It’s either a scam or not and not “seem” to be.

    Textbot.AI focuses on the text messaging Bot as their product which not only could be used for reselling the platform itself but also used for promoting other opportunities.

    And remember it’s not spam if someone opts-in. It’s almost like you are calling Aweber, Constant Contact or other auto-responders a scam when ppl are able to resell it as affiliates. One is just text msg marketing and the other is email marketing.

    Everyone gets in opportunities for making money regardless of the products they offer. That’s just fact.. The whole point of promoting a product regardless of what it is; is to make money at the end of the day. The problem is if it’s only money being exchanged without a real product, education or service; this will make it a Ponzi scheme. And in the case of textbot. so it’s not set up like that at all. Ppl are promoting the product and the benefits of using it for its automation as well as the opportunity to make $100. Nothing is wrong with that at all in business legally. If ppl can find something cheaper then they have the choice to research and choose something else. Thats a part of business.. competition is always out there but if ppl choose to pay hire for this platform that’s their choice. An Apple Mac is more expensive than an HP laptop.. ppl will make their own choices.

    Textbot.ai is a automated text messaging tool that could be used to resell to others to promote their own businesses, other affiliate opportunities or offers like WA, or virtually anything you want to promote like email marketing. Or you could use it for the $100 commission opportunity. What makes that a scam? It’s a actual product so this review really doesn’t make sense.

    The textbot doesn’t just make you money by signing up and setting it up. There’s no magic button to push that’ll make it start brining you money. It’s just a tool that you can use to HELP streamline your efforts and automate tasks that you would otherwise have to do manually. It’s just a tool like any other digital marketing tool out there that’s being pushed and advertised online. Making money online takes work it’s just that this tool helps with easing some of that work. Ppl, this is not a scam. Learn about it thoroughly and be smart when reading reviews.

  14. Firstly, how can you review something you did not buy.

    Secondly it is not MLM in the since that easy 1 up is. You only ever pass up one payment to the person that refers you. This puts new members into profit faster, and encourages people to help there subscribers out.

    I love the system. I get dozens of sign up from drop cards, face book groups, Hurculist, and List Joe.

    One I made some money and started taking my friends out for dinner with the profit they started begging me to join.

    I try to reach out to my sign ups personally, and help them. It is very rewarding. I chat with people around the world. Some join and some don’t.

    Not all of them join the system, but I enjoy chating with them anyway. I love the person to person aspect of the system.

    I also promote another free to join system from my leads called *name of scam removed*. (List building system) Some join both and cross promote as I do. Some join one and not the other.

    Some go on to make money and some don’t.

    The program you promote must be legit, if you were able to rank so high for the text bot review.

    SEO is not for everyone though bruh.

    People in a Biz-op are generally happy with the program they are in or they move on to find one they are happy with.

    It is a shame that only the SEO get to spread their opinion about Biz-ops. They are really not qualified to review a biz-op. It is not their area of expertise.

    Respect.

    • Thanks for your comment. In answer to your question “how can you review something you did not buy?“, I would like to ask you this: do you need to stand in a dog turd to figure out its dog turd? Probably not… And the same concept applies to other things. You also start by saying it’s not MLM, but then immediately mention that the commission structure operates on multiple levels? So… It is MLM?

Now I’m damn confused, i was thinking that it’s the truth while reading blog.. The way everything explained but then public raised their voice and that was totally different i believed in chatbot 2hour hourd before during reading blog i stop believing in chatbot and now 😐 after reaching out to bottom of the comments I’m completely blank that what’s real and what’s not, anyway thanks blogger you were the first blogger whose blog i read ever in my life!

    • Multiple Income Funnel is a modern day downline builder being that it houses several business opportunities all under one umbrella allowing you to only need one link to advertise instead of several different links for each opportunity.

      That is the major point people are missing so if you understand that then you will also understand how it actually works in a legitimate way to build multiple incomes at the same time!

  17. I’m not a member of textbot.ai, but I see both sides of the coin. Can you generate 100.00, I’m assuming yes but they are Failing to mention the 50.00 fee per month (which I had to look up) the usage credits you need to pay (which I had to look up) and keep in mind any 100.00 you make is going be taxed (common sense). If it’s easy for them to show you that you are going to make money I think they should make the other Start up cost just as visible outside of that 100.00 you pay upfront. And all this doesn’t include any third party systems that will Cost to help generate leads.

    Could someone use textbot.ai as a scam? Of course by promoting false promises through Ava, or guaranteeing certain results or money back, but I’m sure that’s not everyone. I’ve come to the conclusion unless your truly committed to this opportunity you may not come out as head as you think in the long run. From experience if there is no signed contract or formal agreement when it comes to money being received (Idk if there is) you can not fully put your trust in it long term.

          It will literally demolish this article and the “honest” review that you tried to give everyone.

          It will also expose you for the liar you are.

          If you aren’t a liar and don’t want to spread lies, you’ll let me correct you publicly and then you’ll either make the revisions to the article I’ve requested or you won’t.

          Your actions will clearly demonstrate to the public your intentions.

          Thanks for approving my comments although I know you only did sell to try to make me look worse by showing everyone that I like to cuss. No big deal the fact that you want to censor everyone’s cuss words tells me everything I really need to know about you.

          My guess is you don’t want to allow people to cuss because you’re a Christian.

          If you truly want people to know the truth and you’re not just poaching on my success and the attention my program obviously brings you, you’ll allow me to expose your lies and clarify the things you’ve twisted to fit your own narrative and objectives.

          Let’s see what type of human being in really dealing with here because you’re about to see clearly what type of human being who’s character you’ve chosen to publicly defame.

  20. There is no pyramid structure as it is a one up compensation so everyone can earn as much as they want. Nor is there any one person at the top earning most of everything because just like any other affiliate product, you sell as many as you possibly can. Some newer affiliates even make far more than many of the older ones simply because they personally sold more NOT because they were strategically placed as in some pyramid schemes.

    Reply
    • So there’s a “one-up” compensation plan, but there’s nobody at the top? How’s that work then? Surely there has to be somebody at the top if things are going “up”, right?

  21. you said “The reason for this is because the creator of the system cannot get approved by merchants to manage payments because processors like PayPal do not work with such scams.”
    Then, a few lines later, you said “That aside though, these are the methods of payments TextBot AI works with:

    Google Pay
    Cash App
    Venmo
    Bitcoin (via Coinbase)
    Stripe
    Zelle
    Paypal” LOL so what is it? Do you even know what you wrote?

    Reply
    • Yeah, I know what I wrote & it is correct. TextBot AI wasn’t able to get approved by merchants to process payments themselves, so instead they require members to make member to member payments via the methods of payments that you have listed in your comment. That way the end user takes the risk of their account being shut down, rather than TextBot AI.

All those hyping the scheme, just pray the founder of it doesn’t scam the hell out of you.
