What happened to all the people who paid you for lifetime access to 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, freelancer client products, etc? Did you just end it all after taking their money?

The people who asked for refund have been given a refund accordingly. I have zero complaints and zero refund requests on paypal. And most of my students and clients are actually very satisfied with my products and support. I know you had a bad experience in the past, but as I said before and at this moment, I can only say sorry and apologize for that matter.

And, even after "currently all my services and products outside Udemy are free with no cost." and "If you are still getting emails ... please do report them because they are not mine." THIS WEEK, I get another spam email to an email address I unsubscribed a year and a half ago trying to hook me into yet another subscription ...

So all the people who signed up for all of Victor's previous Special LIFETIME Offers are shit out of luck, all those offers and subscriptions are dead. But now there's a new offer?

"All our features and courses FOREVER" was the scam two years ago, and apparently it's still the scam today. Don't give this man your money. Or, your email. If he actually honored unsubscribe requests I wouldn't have received email confirmation today that he was lying his ass off this week when he said that everything from him outside Udemy was free.

If you're wondering how "everything not on Udemy is free" translates for Victor Bastos, the same week he post that, this was the pricing up on his "not Udemy" site:

his pricing page, showing the cost is not free

Once again this is a legit business and if you doubt it you can clearly see there is a FREE plan there so you can check it is legit. And the rest of discount offers for paid plans are very good deals as they are LIFETIME plans for 1 time payment only. If you received that email is because you were still subscribed to my email list. As I told you, we use GET RESPONSE and once you unsubscribed we cannot send you any more emails. I feel like I'm done justifying things to a person who just wants problems and has a bad intention and hateful discussions. Good luck.

And, now, this week - TWO YEARS after you say this ... I'm getting emails from you trying to get me to buy your mailing list. The mailing list you shouldn't be able to send me emails on, because I unsubscribed, over and over and over again, years ago.

My only intention in this entire post and thread was, and remains, warning people to not give a sleezebag like yourself their email address. You will not unsubscribe them from everything. You will not stop emailing them. And, apparently, you hold onto their email address (even after they unsubscribe) and sell it to others.

You are horrible.
