Don't buy Clubhouse Invite codes from FAKE websites

This is a followup to my last post: https://dev.to/felix_josemon/don-t-buy-clubhouse-invite-from-ebay-sale-3cmo

After I wrote it, I got many folks share their stories on how they were scammed by some shady websites promising them with Clubhouse Invites. As I run a Pay it forward trusted train for Clubhouse Invite (medium post) , I thought it's my responsibility to call these CLUBHOUSE INVITE scams out!

A lot, I mean a lot of innocent folks are getting scammed by total internet strangers with promise of a clubhouse app invite. They just literally block you once you made the payment or make you download some shady code generator apps. App has spiked growth with Elon Musk and Kanye West (in next few days) going online on Clubhouse.

So a few tips on how to not get yourself scammed when searching for Clubhouse Invite codes.

This is just a search for Clubhouse Invite on Youtube. All the comments says it works and lot of comments from new accounts.

Some folks like me have identified the BS and called them out on comments.

Do you think it's just on youtube?

Nope!

Even on Google search there are a lot of fake Clubhouse Invite code generators, which asks you to download other apps and share your Email Address.

Point to note here is Clubhouse is connected to your iPhone number and there is no Invite code generators for Clubhouse!!

These point to some PDF with "Click here to get Clubhouse Invite" and this!

A lot more cases where someone says to offer invites for 5 or 10 bucks and just ghosts you once you made the payment. Beware of cheap clubhouse invites on Internet.

I wish everyone took a background check on where they are getting invites from, who they are etc, before falling to these traps or scams. Check twice or thrice whom you are getting invites from, they normally block Innocent people once they get your hard earned money. Don't fall for such traps.

This is the same reason I started a pay it forward Clubhouse invite train.

How it works?

As we get invites we share with next person. And so far we have onboarded 700+ great folks from 50+ countries and counting.

Shipped using Mailchimp’s free plan without writing any code

So, a couple of weeks back, I shipped a product(https://www.setuphomeofficepro.com/workspace-setups) on Product Hunt made using MailChimp alone.

Right from the website hosting, landing page creation, collecting leads, and sending newsletters were taken care of by Mailchimp’s Free plan (less than 2000 subscribers). All it took was a couple of hours and a few cups of coffee.

$1000 in 5 days using Auto-Tweet Zapier Integration (🔥How I did it)

Felix Josemon — Wed, 24 Jun 2020 09:02:16 +0000

This is a followup to my last post, make sure to read that first in case if you haven't already.

Right, now you are back. Read on.

Here's my twitter profile for the last 5-6 days, when I started HEY Invite Code Pay-It forward campaign(more details on the last post).

So what happened?

I integrated my Buy Me a Coffee account with Zapier integration for Twitter.

So, every time someone buys me a coffee or become a supporter of HEY Invite Codes chain, an automatic tweet is sent from my profile.

Here's how it looks:

Notice Zapier at the bottom also the keyword "Hey Invite Codes" which has 100+ per hour on peak times. #HeyInvite #HeyEmail too are other popular keywords. Around 120 such tweets were sent from my a/c which led to the traffic and revenue as mentioned above.

That's all for today, here's a cookie🍪 to have along with the morning coffee.

Are you on Hey.com yet? send a hey me on felixjosemon@hey.com if you enjoyed reading this:)

I made $100 every hour by sharing HEY invite codes

Felix Josemon — Sat, 20 Jun 2020 21:15:36 +0000

hey

If you not living under the rock, you would have heard HEY by Basecamp. They just crossed 95,000+ people on their waiting list. It became so hyped, and it reached a stage where people started buying Invite codes on eBay for more than $500 per invite.

Since I signed up early, I got access to the HEY Invite code on day 1 of their launch. The code can only be used 3 times, so I decided to share my codes to anyone who buys me a cup of coffee on my Twitter profile.

My imbox & DM got flooded with people who want a HEY invite. So I created a sheet and built a PAY-IT Forward campaign where anybody who gets an invite will offer one back to others on my list.

A few minutes after posting this on Twitter, I got $95 worth of coffees on my Buy Me a Coffee account. It went so viral that people outside the list started sharing their unused invites.

That's how it got started.

It's Day 3 of the PAY-IT Forward campaign and I have 86 supporters on my Buy Me a Coffee Page🔥.

I am thinking of offering access to top of my list to anyone who can offer more than 15 coffees till I reach 100 supporters.

I am also thinking of writing a complete case study in a week or two, on what strategies worked and what didn't, twitter hacks and how I automated my google sheet.

Let me know if you have any specific questions in the comments below. I will keep everyone posted here.

P.S I work as the Product & Growth Head at Buy Me a Coffee (YC W19)

First wrote on Medium.com, updated with recent earnings as well there(22nd June).
