- WARNING: Garrett's testimonial reflects his own personal experience and opinions of HTC, Inner Circle, and Closers in Black. It is up to each and every one of you to decide the truth about Dan Lok for yourself.
Garrett lost an estimated $26,000 to Dan Lok's various courses and lost opportunities. He wants to make sure it never happens to anyone again.
Dan Lok dresses the way people who have never been in sales think that sales people dress like.

MASSIVE respect to the person opening up about being scammed. It takes a big man to make himself vulunerable like that and in my opinion, it speaks a lot more about the kind of man he is than him getting scammed in the first place. Millions of people get scammed, but only a few could admit it to themselves and the public for the sake of helping others steer clear from this.

Just like so many toxic relationships: if you're successful, the credit goes to your teacher/parent/advisor. If you fail, it's your fault.
Same as being xtian or Islamic
@@snooganslestat2030 not many Christian or Muslim practice it that way I don't think
Indeed! Its never that the business model is bullshit. Its never that the method itself is bullshit. Its never that the guru made money selling bullshit. Its always about you just not working hard enough, not positive enough, not willing enough

I research so much before buying a $10 Udemy course, I don't understand how people would buy a $2000 course 😶
Ikr, I wouldn't even consider buying a game for $1 unless I've done my research and know its good.
what course did you buy?
Same
It depends... I've paid $1200 for a Neil Patel marketing course (Which didn't pay off) yet doing a udemy a $50 course on NodeJS or ReactJS or product management has paid infinitely off more for me in the end. That said, I've also paid 6k for a AI / Data Science Bootcamp. Everything has a cost / benefit to it and you just have to weigh things carefully.
Prior to the data science bootcamp I had not paid anything close to that much for anything but 1) I was already a developer and entrepreneur at that point (So I could get a job fairly easily compared to others who would've just taken the course by itself) 2) It was and is a burgeoning industry 3) It would have and did immediately increase my capacity to earn more money in the short term and finally 4) I had chosen my next startup to be AI related. And a year later here I am with a VC backed AI startup.

Worst part about these schemes is that victims usually stay quiet because of embarrassment, but they need to speak up about their experience to warn others.
so called vicims were never cut out to be anything in the first place. if they had what it takes then they'd try something WITHOUT paying thousands of dollars to someone to hold their hands. thats what guru courses are. "victims" need someone to hold their holds even tho chances are they will never take enough action to make any changes.
@@ebayseller6040 Yes, but gurus shouldn't try to silence the truth by threatening to sue their clients for speaking up. In addition most of these victims are 18-22 year old's that might be in disparate need of financial help and it's major companies like UA-cam, Facebook... that allow these fraudulent practice to continue on their platform.
@@DallasCowboyFan95 The issue here is legality. They aren't doing anything against UA-cam's terms, nor doing anything illegal.
They are selling a service (albeit a shady one), but the key point is that (no matter how shady and scammy it is) they actually still do deliver that service.
Hence the cycle continues.
@@ebayseller6040 many arent. but if you were there around the time of what Garrett was saying you'll feel the same way.

你好，我是來自亞洲的人，你可以使用翻譯，看看我的想法. Dan Lok，他最近一直在亞洲各個國家不斷在宣傳他的影片，因為他開始往他熟悉的國家做傳播，宣傳他的“課程”，（中國、馬來西亞、新家坡、台灣）
我認為，你們應該把這個影片增加 Mandarin的語言， 讓更多人看到這個影片！ 他現在把很多的影片，增加了另一個語言（e.g. Mandarin), 讓更多人“加入”他的團隊.
雖然我沒有買他的任何課程，但是我看的出來，他的手段，他不斷敲擊受眾的“需求”, 擴大受眾的“慾望”, 甚至催化他們的“願望”.. 我常常看到他的廣告，我真的覺得很厭煩.
希望不要再有人受騙了.
你的影片，非常有意義.
很棒✌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Good luck! I don’t know if he will but I hope he does
It's sad that a lot of these scammers move onto other countries that aren't aware of their reputation to continue their scams. They really do bank on the fact that majority of people here can't read up on their crimes and they can also flaunt that they are super "successful" in America. I see this a lot with pyramid schemes and MLMs too. 我也希望更多人能看到, 不要被騙.

I have a brother that is trapped inside this kind of cults. I've tried several times helping him out but most of the times i felt powerless. The most disturbing thing about this is not the money wasted buying those courses, but the mental scar that those toxic comunities leave and the psychological consequences. Now my brother has no friends, he is 24/7 in his room following those courses and he lost touch with everyone, family included, he spent lots of money chasing the "6 figures skill" . I moved to another city and he completely deleted me, in more than 3 years i have no communication with him because those cults promote isolation in order to better control and brainwash you, and if you disagree with those cults' principles you are a negative person that has to be isolated, the same happened to my brother: he isolated me because i was a negative person that was trying to block his path towards success. And the saddest thing is that is not his fault, but is how the game was meant to be. They took advantage of a good, intelligent, determined and pure person like him. Those cults are no different from Jonestown, but instead of god there is money and the lead principle is chasing cash and luxury.
Kinda sad how the government allows it to go on like that.
They are narcissists ( the cult leaders) who takes advantage og people with mental dissorders. The most common is « codependency dissorder»
I'm hoping that your brother gets out of this malignant and blatant manipulation.

@@UrMe666 you could just say nun mannn..
I hope his wife is doing well. Imagine your spouse quitting their job without telling you and spending damn near 30k on a scam. His folly affects her, too.
I wishs she'd left him, tbh. Getting scammed isn't his fault, but making financial decisions without your partner shows huge disrespect and is a massive red flag. It's a behavior likely to carry into other aspects of his life with her.
@@Qrtuop it was just one bad decision, you want people to break up just because one of them made a mistake like this? Plus you're very quick to judge Garrett and I'm sure you don't know him personally to justify the harsh words.
Regardless of how Garrett is as a partner, "it's just one bad decision" is a bad justification. Domestic violence can also be just one bad decision, but you can bet ur @ss I'd be telling Garrett to run if his wife hit him 'just once', especially since I believe close to half of people who are victims of domestic violence end up dead within one year due to a murder or murder-suicide by their partner or former partner (fun fact, 72% of murder-suicides are of partners or former partners in domestic violence situations). Safety, whether it be emotional safety or physical safety, isn't something to mess around with. I agree that she should have left him, 30k behind her back is a huge deal and he broke her trust in a huge way, even if he meant well. If they're able to build back up that trust slowly then I could see them eventually getting back together, but it takes a lot and a long time to trust someone who broke your trust in such a huge way, and that's assuming she'd want to get back together with him and not just cut her losses. I'd say the same if she went behind his back and spent 30k.
@@duetopersonalreasonsaaaaaa
Because getting scammed is comparable to domestic violence. "It was just one mistake" isn't the same in all cases. However, I agree that spending 30K without her knowing, is a BIG mistake.
@@kosaelectronics he wasn’t equating them, he was giving an example of how just one bad mistake can be devastating and something that should cause you to leave. If my wife spent $25,000 on something like this without telling me, that would be really hard to move on from. That severely affects your whole family.
Isn't it funny how MLMs/Scammers sell you these schemes based on the desire to not work hard then get criticized for "not working hard enough" lol
It's called "selling the dream"!!
And when you call out people for their pyramid schemes they get super mad
While I'm not defending these MLMs, fact is most of us don't have the gift of gab or know how to sell and don't want to bother their family and/or friends who mostly ridicule them anyway, and as a result, shy away from such 'opportunities' as they so gracefully refer to it as. Corporate America is itself a widespread pyramid structure.

What I hate more than HTC are some of the closers are being jerks those who are struggling and feeling so upset because of their "weak" mindsets! Some closers piss me off! I thought this was a "family!" Closers should care about each other not hammer them or shaming people with "weak" mindsets. I hate how some closers act like tough guys and alpha males in the group. I feel like an outsider to them.
Garrett shows more strength and intelligence than 99% people. Everyone is susceptible to cults especially at moments of vulnerability. Surviving a cult and raising awareness about it, that's more admirable than never having being in one.
Actually cults try to cultivate high functioning individuals because they are usually the most effective members of the cult - the ones that get stuff done when it comes to helping the cult generate cash or whatever their currency is.

It’s crazy how many scans are out there.
Fake gurus are just the high end ones. But there are thousands out there. They do follow “cult” behaviour. High pressure sales tactics. Misinformation,
They revert to bullying at the end of the day. Because they aren’t interested in a good business relationship. They want the money. So if you show any weakness. And uncertainty. And they get a foot in the door. Eg like her, your phone number.
They will exploit that and try to push you to giving them money.

Admitting you've been fooled takes real courage and integrity. When you admit it you can help many, many people from making the same mistake.

These con artists are an abomination.
Thank you so much. I was understanding SeaFood the whole time :D
It means “master” in chinese
Nice rhyme man
Also there are two kinds of Sifu, someone who is not your teacher but is an expert in their field you call 師傅，but when you become their actual student/disciple/etc. then they're your 師父 which is father who teaches
Not so much a rank or title, but a familial relation, so you can say that not only is Dan bastardizing a noble profession, but also a precious relationship you could argue is sacred
"Teacher" and "Master" are actually derived from the same word in Chinese script:

老师 = teacher

Steps to become a Guru:
1. Scrap together multiple catchy motivational phrases about working hard and avoiding procrastination (similar to what your father used to tell you as a kid and you ignored). -> 2. Add some basic tips on whatever it is you are promoting (and which you can probably find on the internet or a book for free). -> 3. Add a 2k price tag to it. -> 4. Get 100 people to quit their jobs and commit fully to it -> 5. 95 fail, 5 succeed (a rate anyone could have without being a guru). -> 6. Convince the 95 that failed that it was their fault and the 5 that succeeded that it was your doing (Actually done before the success/failure step) -> 7. Get the testimonials of the 5 that succeeded so that you can convince another 100 to get in the game -> 8. Repeat steps 5-8.
This shit is typical MLM stuff...Copy pasted the speeches and gatherings of companies like herbalife into their own context..
98 fail. 2 succeed

To learn to sell and close, get a non-commission retail job, especially in apparel. Then act as if it is a commission sales job. I worked at an apparel store while in college and did just that. I was getting paid to train myself in sales and closing. I did not go in to sales, but the “training” and experience has served me well in life and business ever since.
Yeah retail sucks ass but it does teach you a lot of skills if you actually try to close deals.
why not just get a sales job, they will ahem ACTUALLY train you
Because then your income relies on your skill, and you have very little of that when you start.

This Garrett guy is a great speaker, he would make a wonderful podcast host
I was thinking the exact same thing, I wish he had a UA-cam channel.

Yoo I was thinking the same shit. Also he sounded so familiar to me like I may have known him from high school or something lol. But super sad story very enlightening
I wholeheartedly agree with you guys, we should encourage him have a UA-cam channel of his own on his spare time. He can start small such as vlogs.
He should start a youtube channel. He can atleast make some adsense money of that.
The problem with our society is I heard a teacher call himself unskilled. That's just not right, teachers are building blocks of our society.
No, the problem is too many believe teachers actually know. Those who know, do. Those who dont know, teach.
He probably meant in sales
those who can't do, teach
@@redrustyhill2 Anyone who teaches/provides information to you is by definition a teacher. You weren't born in a vacuum with all the knowledge already there in your brain.
@@bilsid Sure, keep repeating that to yourself gramp, you're doing great.
“He’s taking a bunch of unskilled people such as myself...”
Damn, dude, quit selling yourself short. You’re a teacher. Granted, in the States it’s a rather maligned career, but still easily respectable by most thinking human beings. You won’t make millions, but you’ll be shaping future generations. Lok can’t say that; he actually is easily replaceable.
hes unskilled in business and sales, and thats the kicker. Unless you are learned in a topic, you have to trust people who are learned in the topic. But because they are unskilled they dont know who to trust. thats the paradox of being uneducated.
@ShenaniTimes teaching isn't s maligned career, who says that
"If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as a Michaelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, 'Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well."

I am to lazy and broke to be scammed. All the ones involving selling things seem like a lot of work. The crypto coins make no sense to me because anyone can create a Cryptocurrency and they have nothing of value that actually backs the coin. People say that the US dollar is not backed by gold anymore which is true but it os backed by the federal government of the united states who happens to own trillions of dollars worth of property. They also happen to own and operate the largest and most technologically advanced military the world has ever seen.

I was in season 5 as well, July 2018. I was so excited to make this work at the time and I really believed in it. All my group members who I was in touch with back then were just as enthusiastic, but unfortunately they are in the same situation right now. And ofcourse no one really talks about it because they are ashamed to admit it.
I remember in one of the lessons of HTC Dan mentioned something along the lines of "If someone pays a ton of money for a high ticket product, they have a lot of emotions attached to it and they themselves will try to defend or justify it regardless of the value that the product brings in." Which is why there are so many people out there who are not making money after joining HTC, but still try to justify it by saying that it changed their mindset and what not when they know good and well that they indeed did get scammed.

Dan Lok's a terrible person, but he's one hell of a marketing genius.
He probably buys attendance to the courses at $100 per class so the other real students think they're sitting with real folk and not plants. So when the plants sign up to the program you think "oh my" I'm going to miss out but they were just actors on a payroll.
Be wise my friends. Be wise
@Dan He couldn't find anything else he could sell since he despises everything and everyone else. All that was left was his ego so he had to sell that. It's all emptiness!

“ Any one can just become rich, just stop being lazy, pull yourself by your bootstraps and work your ass off” - guy living paycheck to paycheck buying into this bull
There is some truth but there is so much more to it. The answer is _______
Violet Arashi nobody ever got rich by working hard.
You must utilize your intelligence to see opportunities and THEN work hard to make it become successful.
Mike Lang you cannot ethnically become a billionaire without ceasing the opportunity to exploit people for your own gain , on some level. Jeff bezos? look at how amazon treats their employees especially now during the pandemic to continue making profit. A human being cannot ethically become a billionaire by “ ideas” and “ hard work” but by strategic exploitation of workers. you need workers to be that rich and you need to under pay them to get there.
Violet Arashi who needs to be a billionaire?
Depends on if you include people that want to make money from the ideas and system you create as exploitation, it’s a two way street.
Workers “exploit” the system and ideas to earn a wage without having to think up or build anything themselves. The creator “exploits” the worker(s) by making a profit in their use of the idea and system which likely is regulated by government, requires another team too market, others to sell, others for inventory, managing all the parts and pieces of the “machine”, etc.
So doesn’t “ethically “ depend on if the exploitation is mutually beneficial or if there is an undue burden imposed on one or the other.
Look up the UA-cam video with Ayn Rand discussing why True Altruism is Evil.
Mike Lang since when is working to survive and provide for one’s family exploitation? dont try to mold the meaning of exploitation to make working just to survive in a corrupt system and using the system to underpay people/put their life at risk just to afford another yacht the same thing. it’s not.
Never pay for course lol. So much free stuff on the internet already.
there is literally thousands of courses, tutorials and other stuff online for free. take coding for example, you get sooooooo much knowledge from stackoverflow alone, its never worth buying from some dude.
whenever i see a dude selling courses, i know its a scam. if he had real, valuable knowledge, he wouldn't need or bother making these courses. courses have one goal in mind, enriching the one that made them, so ofc. he needs puppets to buy them, humanity needs to stop being so naive....

PixelLightShow there are way too many fake gurus out there trying to profit off knowledge that’s all over the internet for free, and it’s horrible.

Yeah would be great if there are some regulations in that space and all the self help shet too
The biggest slap in the face unexpectedly comes from UA-cam giving me a self help guru ads with a balding guy in sportswear telling me how I can make 5000 dollars an hour sitting on my couch.
Yeah, I always get those ads around these videos too! It's the algorithm's lack of self-awareness that both amuses and terrifies me.

@@garrettj1411 You should have known as a teacher that even if one of your students fail in life it doesn't mean your school is a scam.
PRODUCER COMMANDER Yeah because we’re not charging our students $2500. We’re giving them a general education. We’re not boasting that our education can make them 6 figure earners. Not even colleges do that.
That’s night and day from a “High-Income Skill” course like HTC that described itself as the “quickest” and “easiest” way to making 6-figures.
There’s been 12 seasons of HTC, by all means, go round up any successful students (who are not working for Dan Lok) who’ve gone from 0 experience to 6-figures earners and bring them here to prove me wrong. Of the 8,000 or so students who’ve gone through the course it should easy to find at least be 80 (1%) of them out there. Right?
@@garrettj1411 I was charged more than $30,000 by my college. And most of my batchmates who finished BS Marketing are now in jobs not in the marketing business. Is my college a scam too? Are my professors fake gurus too? Because they taught us do this, this that and then you will earn alot and have a good life. And most parents will tell their children, if you want to be rich then study hard. Yet many who studied hard are not rich. Are parents scammers too?
I learned more from Sifu than my 4 years in college. As a teacher you should have not bashed your teacher (sifu) and your course just because you failed. Sifu said he can only teach you but you have to do the WORK. He is not promising a get rich quick scheme. He is just selling knowledge and knowledge is power. You should be embarassed about yourself calling yourself a teacher (Sifu) yet you do not respect Sifu (your Teacher). What would you feel if one of your students calls you a "fake teacher" and a scam just because he fails in life? Ha answer me!
@@attorneyinvestor3941 Brother, I've been in your shoes. I spat those same lines at my family when they questioned HTC and Dan Lok. Their comments irked me and challenged my reality and I did my best to prove them wrong. Obviously, my interview and comments have left cracks in your reality, or else you'd be following Dan's advice and focusing on closing and not wasting time typing out UA-cam comments.
Well let me answer your questions first: If a student called me a scammer because he failed in life because of my English II class I'd call him an idiot. Now if I had charged him $2500 and said it would make his life better, then yes, I'd admit, it was a scam.
As for your professors and parents argument: yes, if your professors promised you that their classes would make you money and your life better then yes, they're scammers. If your parents said studying would make you rich, they lied, but they're not scammers, they're not taking your money from you (but it is statistically proven that studying habits lead to higher chances of business/financial/education success so it's not a bad thing to preach, even Dan would agree with that).
But colleges do make you earn your degree with class credits. HTC's homework point system is meaningless to graduating, I would know, I was an AG leader. If students didn't do a single homework assignment, they'd still get a certificate and be "certified".
And yes, knowledge is power, and Dan promised me the knowledge to earn 5-6 figures with this "high-income skill." That didn't happen, so it was just me, right?? I don't know a single person who went from zero experience to being a 6-figure earner (not 6-figure in sales).
That knowledge you're chasing, he's only giving you a fraction of it. If you want the full truth, you need to join Inner Circle, then HTM, then get hired onto his sales team, and then be on Team Dan Lok, and only then will you know his full knowledge, but by then you would've burned through your money, your relationships, and your reputation.
But you know something? That matrix Dan talks about? Ever since leaving HTC behind, my mind has never been more clear, my relationships more stable, and now it's clear to me: HTC WAS the matrix, and Dan was the machine sucking away your time and energy to fuel his machine.
And now, Commander, when you leave this comment section, you have no where else to go but back down into that Matrix, back down into that rabbit hole with the others. You're gonna feel super inspired to get back to practicing your roleplays and then you're going to do your best to make HTC work for you and you'll eventually work with an influencer and be excited. Weeks will go by and whenever you do get a sales call, you'll find out that your HTC skills were useless. You'll try to improve, and likely fail again. You'll search for ways to improve yourself like buying Dan Lok's HIC program or his TubeYourOwnHorn course and think it'll give you that "missing piece." And then you'll go back to your sales calls, only to fail again. You'll blame yourself, you'll feel like you shamed Dan Lok and the HTC brand, and then you'll vanish away, just like the other HTC brothers and sisters I worked alongside with...
But I pray it all works out for you, and I invite you to revisit this page and laugh at me if it does.
So go on now, get back to focusing on closing so you can prove me wrong. Meanwhile, I'll be moving on and no longer have the weight of HTC or Dan Lok holding me down any further. : )
Seriously, take care. You'll be in my prayers.
I genuinely believe every fucking dime Garrett spent was completely worth it. if he wasn't in those rooms, we wouldn't hear about this insanity. I appreciate the sacrifice you have made.

At some point you said “shame on me”. But there’s no shame in getting scammed: it’s the only thing these guys are actually expert at. It’s kinda like feeling shame that your accountant did your taxes correctly or something. You don’t need to feel shame because someone else is really good at their job. It’s just unfortunate that his job was scamming you. No shame, only lessons. You won’t make this mistake again and you’ve steered a lot of people away from the same one. I think pride is more appropriate than shame here.
No. He's a sucker who jumped in headfirst without doing any research and kept forking over money time and time again.
if you dont have shame in your life then youll end up like this guy, thinking that 2500$ can make your lazy ass a millionaire.
Moral of the story: just listen to what someone has to say on UA-cam for free, but if at any time, anyone asks you to donate, buy or pay for a course, you got to step back and look at it objectively. If these people are genuinely helping you, they will NOT be asking you to part with your money at all.

The way he described it, it reminds me of a couple of MLM meetings I attended in the past. There’s pressure, urgency, and herd mentality in the room. They made you feel compelled to be a part of it, to believe, to envision what you could achieve. Thankfully the more pressure I feel, the more I’d suspect something not kosher. But I understand how people get turned into sheep (the recent social unrest comes into mind). The stuff they feed You is not unlike drugs.
Herbalife taught these guys how to scam others they just changed the brand
We are two feet sheep. It's unbelievable how easy you can lie to and manipulate people if you know how to do it. Politicians are the real gurus of manipulation.
We're human, we have our vulnerability, our gullibility and our own personal issues why we get scammed. It's also karma. I also got scammed by a spiritual teacher. All she did would tell us she loves us and is helping us to heal things. It's more courageous to hold compassion for people and to understand their frame of reference is different from ours.

He is really a good story teller.
As a person who--shamefully-- spent the first $2500 to get into HTC, I can say that everything this guys stated is true. Actually, I think he was pretty nice, it's actually much, much darker.
I spoke with so many of other "students" that live in extremely poor countries spend what could easily be a year's worth of living expenses on this thing, only to regret it. It was honestly really hurtful to hear them speak about the sacrifices they were making. Also, when I "graduated" (2020), the price for the so called inner circle I was offered was $7500, so a total of 10K.
Fortunately, I realized what Dan was about early during the training program and stopped listening, and never bought anything else, even though I was offered to do so several time. I did loose the $2500.
Lastly, some people pay more than $2500 to get into HTC. When you talk to an HTC closer, and you ask the price, what they will ask you is, "How much would you say this program is worth to you?
I really wish I would have seen this video and done more research before stupidly giving this guy my very hard (savings from my deployment to Iraq) earned cash!
