In this episode, The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger—Danny de Hek—dives deep into Megan Lynch’s latest attempt at gaslighting her audience into believing the VYB scheme is anything but another shady MLM scam. If you’ve ever wondered how scammers manipulate people into staying loyal to a sinking ship, this is the episode for you!
Megan’s video is a psychological rollercoaster, packed with blame-shifting, emotional manipulation, and classic cult-like MLM tactics designed to keep people trapped in the illusion of financial success. She categorises people into "quitters," "players," "workers," and "studs," making it clear that if you question the business model or fail to recruit others, you’re just a weak-minded loser who doesn't "want it bad enough."
But let’s be real—this is not about mindset or hard work. This is about a system that benefits the people at the top while everyone else fights for scraps. The red flags are everywhere:
đźš© Demonizing anyone who questions the scheme
đźš© Encouraging blind loyalty to leaders
đźš© Focusing on recruitment over actual product sales
đźš© Guilt-tripping participants for not working 24/7
đźš© Selling a dream that only works for the few at the top
VYB’s so-called "business opportunity" is crumbling, and instead of taking responsibility, Megan is spinning an elaborate web of excuses to keep people locked in. The irony? She warns about people who “stay busy being busy” while she herself delivers hours of fluff without providing a single concrete solution on how this company actually generates sustainable income.
If you’ve ever felt pressured into an MLM or been guilted into thinking you just weren’t working hard enough, this episode will open your eyes. Tune in as I break down the psychological tricks, expose the manipulation, and shine a massive spotlight on the tactics used to keep these schemes alive.
💥 Don’t be a victim of gaslighting—be informed. 💥
Hit play and let’s dismantle this nonsense together!
