Internet Marketers about their list; “Mine’s bigger than yours!” – “Easiest money I’ve ever made” – “It’s like an online ATM” – “one email paid for my holiday”.
Most of you know will know what I mean when I talk about the “list”. It’s simply a list of email addresses obtained by an Internet Marketer over time, by getting people to sign-up to it via newsletters and/or freebies. Once a list is compiled, the marketer starts using this to contact the people on the list, trying to sell them stuff. They can say they care about you, but you’re really nothing more than a potential lead for a sale.
So what? Well…nothing. It is what it is. A list of leads. I just thought I’d explain to those of you who didn’t know yet. Anyway, back to the topic…
My email address is on loads of these lists. I’m a sucker for them. Not because I want to buy from the list owners, but because of their entertainment value. I get a chuckle every time I read about how “the doors are closing soon, buy now” – “one time only offer, price will go up tomorrow” – “Only 85 45 27 11 copies left!” – “After we sell 20 copies, we’re doubling the price!”
You get the idea. Marketers are trying to make you feel ike you will miss out on a great opportunity if you don’t act NOW. And that’s fair enough…after all – selling their products to you is their end goal, and they use every tool that they can use to get you to give them your money. They probably wouldn’t be very good marketers if they didn’t.
Once in a while, a list-owner’s behaviour stands out in my inbox. They do things slightly different, and they just kind of flag themselves. One of these guys is Imran Naseem aka Nasio987. Or as some people online like to call him:
* a.k.a. TheRehashingMachine™, MasterRehasher™, CopyPaster™, …,
TheGreatestRehasherWhoEverLived™. All items trademarked by Imran Naseem.
Imran is a product maker/website flipper. Basically what he does is get content from one place, flushes it through his secret rehash machine, uses new wrapping paper, and puts his own stamp on it. He then sells this product on a new sales website, makes a few bucks from buyers on forums full of aspiring and ignorant marketing newbies that are willing to pay for any new product that promises them a magic wand to get rich online. Once this stream dries up, he packs up his things, and sells the sales website and product to some other ignorant and unsuspecting newbie.
The Imran Naseem product catalogue is available on Flippa by the way. See for yourself what I’m talking about.
Say what you want, but I simply refuse to believe that someone who has offered a dozen CPA related websites for sale in the past few months, really has new and useful information on each and every one of those sites.
Well, think of this method what you want – it seems to work well for Imran. He’ll never be out of business with a new sucker born every minute.
*Disclaimer – I have not bought a single one of Imran’s products, so I could be WAY off in this post. But something about selling $5 ebooks on how to make thousands of dollars with something like CPA just doesn’t feel right to me. If your information product is that good, why on earth would you:
A: Sell it for dirtcheap ? (because the cheaper the price, the more you can flog?)
B: Sell it in the first place! (creating competition for yourself)
In case you are wondering why I’m having a whinge about Imran Naseem…Well I replied to one of his emails today, asking him if he wasn’t getting tired of emailing people on his list all day every day. As a response Imran basically told me immediately to piss off, and he kicked me from his list because I never bought anything from him, and I was accused of being a freebie seeker…
I wonder why he got all up in arms and uber-defensive right away. Makes me think he might be used to dealing with complaint emails a lot or something…Here’s the email thread, starting with me replying to a sales email for a product called CPA Relapse 2.
His final request was not to respond to him, since he didn’t have time for this. Assuming he was indeed busy doing some more rehashing and emailing people that will give him their money, I left the conversation at that. See, I’m not such a bad guy after-all. Even gave him a few free links!

http://bobjones.nl/imran-naseem-part-3-cry-me-a-river/
Priceless! I don’t need this guy’s friendship that much. I’d rather spend the cash on something more believable.
Like a cold fusion reactor or a perpetual motion machine.
hahaha, man Bob this article made my day really, i will now go to part 2 and start reading
This is to funny but pathetic. But unfortunately no surprise coming from this clown.
I’ve been a long time Warrior and will never look at his post anymore, this guy has no credibility and yes we all know that he is a Rehashing Machine. But it works with newbies.
hahaha funny as hell!
has that rehash king responded to you with his court letter? BTW that guy sucks newbie into purchasing his crap products always.
This is GREAT.
Just getting it all presented well ready to be posted on the Warrior Forum!!!
Oh, this was SOOOO funny. That Imran Naseem is SUCH an IDIOT. I will be spreading this information on my blog farm (140 blogs). Imran’s career will soon be OVER. No more money for you, Imran! You are a total douche bag!
Bob, you such a fool. I’m pretty sure you bought every product of Imran, just to make some bucks on the Internet. He is a nice guy, ok maybe some of his products are really BS but he is working and he is actually making money…and what are you doing? You are stealing your own time…nice kid
He's a paki, all they care about drugs and money..
Lol, I always wondered a lot why and why he always censor his cpalead earnings in one of his ebooks!!!
Though I gotta say, he knows his Marketing man! no fool can rake in $hit.
Though %99 of his products fail, but his fiverr arbitrage was good though.
Fucking scammer you are
If the shoe fits Wear it! so many times you have denied me a refund when i have never even received any of the products yet you have turned around and called me a freebie seeker, How professional is that……your customer has a problem you never sent em anything yet you call em a freebie seeker!
People like you peddling rehashed im products brings this industry to shame and I have already contacted the office of fair trading since you are a u.k resident regarding your conduct.
cya scammer!
@Fools i did buy every product!! there all shit he never sent them me mind from that crappy warrior forum….Seem like a place were the blind lead the blind anyway, Full of bullshit and imran is one of them with his “CPAreleaps make tens of thousands from cpa to that Cpamessia to offline business that seems like posts form Blackhat world(com)

Hey Bobby… found a link back to yours. This guy is funny as hell and informative!
http://www.ppc.bz/people-that-suck/bottom-feeder-of-the-week
Bob, I think this blog is bullshit. You start a blog to bash a guy whose products you’ve never purchased? It would have taken you a lot less time to actually read the feedback from his customers about his products, and THEN maybe even by one or two so you’ll actually know what you’re talking about.
Personally, I have found a LOT of Imran’s materials to be very effective, and a great value compared to all of the “gurus” that peddle their crap on ClickbUnk. Sounds like most of the people on this forum have never bought anything from Imran, so your credibility as an “authority” is dubious, at best. Read the Warrior Forum posts for any or all of his courses. Almost ALL of them are VERY positive, and many, but certainly not all of the buyers are experienced IMs who are making money with Imran’s techniques.
If I were Imran, I would take your term “Master Rehasher” as a compliment, not an insult. Name a single teacher you ever had in any grade (if you went to school), and tell me that they are not PAID to rehash math, science, English, French, biology, chemistry, etc. Can you name a single basketball, football, tennis or soccer coach who hasn’t learned, at least in part, to coach from their own and other coaches?
If you were scheduled for brain surgery, would you rather have a doctor who learned from “Master Rehashers”, or who just “winged” it as he started cutting into your brain?
Sure, they all add their own “flare” and creativity to their coaching, teaching or training style, but they are all rehashers. Does this make them smart or stupid coaches / teachers / trainers? If they weren’t willing to learn from their mentors, trainers, coaches, and even from other “rehashers”, they wouldn’t have a job.
And speaking of JOB, do you have one? If so, you have made a decision to let someone else control your life, and tell you when to go to work, when to leave, when to pee, when you can take a few days off, and how much you can make. How smart is that? And regardless of what you do for a living, did you learn from someone who learned from someone else? That’s rehasing!
Imran has a perfect business model, and he does a great job with it. Maybe all of the products he sells don’t work for everyone, but we all know that only 5-20% of the people who buy them will ever even read OR apply them. Is that his fault? He is a master of niches, and has found that the IM niche is the most profitable for him. IM is what he knows best, so it makes sense that he would work this niche. Would you give up on a profitable niche if you were making great money with it?
I am not here to defend anybody, but those of you who are bashing someone who does an effective job at providing GOOD training information to his buyers (at a reasonable price), without your even having read the material you are bashing, must have your own hidden agenda, which is more transparent than you may think.
For those of you who are doing the bashing on rehashing, are you making money online ethically? Probably not. Are you selling your own unique materials online, which have not been rehashed? Probably not. Are you selling someone else’s rehashed materials online? Gotta wonder. And since you call yourselves “BlackHat”, if you ARE making money online, are you doing it by violating laws, rules and regulations, Terms of Services, etc. which make it much more difficult for those who want to do business ETHICALLY online? Probably so.
So the only reason I can see that Blackhatters would even waste their time bashing Imran or any other IMs doing business legally and ethically, is that you are incapable of running your own successful and ethical businesses, so you have to bash someone else in a feeble attempt to make yourself look better, so you won’t have to admit that your failure is your own fault.
I hope you give equal attention to “Michael Jones”, Ian Ross, and hundreds of other gurus that really deserve a good bashing, IMHO.
