16 Kilo giveaway For real or just spam bait? KingSumo?

Post by swablero »

EDIT: At first I thought maybe there was something legitimate behind all the marketing and manipulation but Id stay away from this except for anyone interested in seeing all the trouble these guys went through to create the scam. ! Ballz even found the interested parties cited in Kratom Assholes. So beware!!!

If anyone is interested. You coulds also look at it as an example of very manipulative marketing as it turns out, somehow, the more you share the link the better your chances of winning.

Looks like you win a ton of worthless green garbage powder. I'd be surprised if ANY of that was worth the shipping even.

yeah looks like a SCAM to "harvest" your Email address... some rather shady characters Gaia / Mitra Gaia / Mit count / Powers et cetera.

Well Well. Looks like they got the "Kratom Assholes" website taken down ? Getting a 404... I hadn't looked at that in a while. Powers was definitely featured on that site...

Google to the rescue... Did you know, Google has a CACHE of web pages? Here it works like THIS. 8-)

Yep these guys are listed on the Assholes website = Amazing Botanicals, Gaia, Mitra Gaia, Mitcount, Raw Form... throw that Mystic Gypsy in there, too :lol:

I kind of regret sharing it because its obviously such a bogus manipulation. But fpr many of us at Double M who are so obsessed with everything related to the leaf its interesting to see the elaborate infrastructure that was set up to support this "giveaway". In retrospect its a warning that Kratom is big money so beware people will go to some trouble to take advantage of our leaf lust. 16 KILOS. The scale of this is ludicrous. There are stories of warehouses overflowing with tons of useless bunk leaf and "there's a sucker born every minute" to the people behind this scam.

On a side note..I have to thank you for showing this. I was able to recover something that was very dear to me on an old website that no longer exists. I had no clue this was possible.

Another great resource for this is the “wayback machine” at archive.org. You can look up almost any website and see what it looked like back in the day. They have over 350 billion pages archived.
