  • Chris Parker and Easy Prey

    As a victim of an unbelievable, 23 year series of cyber and physical stalking, I am SO grateful for Easy Prey and the real life stories and associated lessons. Chris, I would be honored to have you on The Cyber Hero Adventures Show and if you would find it valuable, to be in your Show. Gratefully, Gary Berman.

  • AMWAY and BWW is a huge scam

    I was in Amway and BWW for 3 year since March 2017 and left 2020. I was brainwash by EX mentors who isn’t certified to help anyone but only with there experience.

    I learned Alots but once I left I finally learned how to live my own life without worrying about bonus point or money or things that does not add value toward my happiness.
