Scam! They don't expect you to finish their course

I got the program and as soon as I did they have someone call you for an $8,000 upsell to do it all for you. I didn't need their help and actually made an app from scratch and when I got to the end to convert the course I made into an app, there was no one around to help. I could never convert the course into an app. It is a total scam, don't invest in this scam.

Warning about Lucas

I would like to share a frustrating experience I had with Lucas Lee-Tyson, the owner of PassiveApps.AI, where I worked from September to November 2024.

During my time at the company, I fulfilled my role on the sales team with dedication, generating tangible results. However, in November 2024, the entire sales team, including myself, was laid off, and I am still owed $1,766 USD in commissions for the sales I made.

Despite multiple attempts to contact him and provide clear evidence to resolve this matter, I have received little to no response from him.

He offered to send me $200 instead of paying the entire $1766 owed. Clear evidence has been sent to confirm, that the amount due to me is $1,766 and not $200.

All the proof is also in slack. My commission tracker was sent to verify and confirm this, yet he is still ignoring it and keeps stating it's just $200.

I am sharing this story as a warning to others who may choose to work with Lucas Lee-Tyson in the future.

Passive Apps is TOO passive!

This so-called company, apparently coordinated by a young kid named Lucas Lee-Tyson, is promoting using AI to generate passive income and offers both "do it yourself" and "done for you" versions of his program to allow you to get a steady monthly income and yet the nanosecond they secure payment from you (1 for $9.00 and the 2nd one a contract for $129.00/week) they disappear, don't answer phone calls, don't reply to texts and apparently think they have gotten another sucker to fall for their scheme. The one employee that I have actually interacted with, a "Anna Manalang" informed me that I actually have to TRY using their system with a client FIRST before they will consider giving a refund. This after I called, emailed, and texted her stating that I hadn't RECEIVED ANY of the advertised resources from them with which I was SUPPOSED to accomplish this phenomenal feat. Since they are based in Sacramento, I contacted the California Attorney General's Consumer Protection desk, and will also report the parent company, LLT RESEARCH, to the Southern Cal Better Business Bureau and the actual fraudsters at Passive Apps, to the Northern California BBB, since THEY are in Sacramento.

BAIT AND SWITCH - BEWARE

• PassiveApps made verbal promises of a refund guaranteed in their supposedly “recorded calls” with customers for their PAL program. This was a lie for both the PAL and PAM programs. They changed the scope of these services after I asked for my refund for the Mentorship program.
• PassiveApps made further verbal promises of a refund while vetting PAL members in another “recorded call” as a “strong fit” for the PassiveApps mentorship program (PAM).
• PassiveApps provided no scope of services for either the PAL or PAM programs in writing at the time of payment or after being challenged for them. None of the recorded calls have been provided to support Passiveapps claims. I have provided screenshot proof of when these verbal promises were made.
• PassiveApps provided no terms of service for either of their verbal offerings that I paid $1999 and $8000 for. These terms of service do not apply to me as they must have been drafted after I requested my refund based on multiple verbal agreement/phone calls.
• What I now see in the new PassiveApps TOS, we were due for a $1999 credit towards our $8000 paid for the mentorship program. This TOS was never applied or brought up as this is a policy recently written and never discussed with us. This is referenced in the following document (apparently missing a “Section 7 header” since it was drafted in a rush ) just prior to the Section 8 header. Also never discussed was the sentence following stating: “Students enrolled in the Passive Apps Mentorship program are not eligible for the Money Back Warranty”. This is in direct contradiction on to the verbal promise made by Nick in the recorded call PassiveApps won’t provide.
• If Lucas Lee-Tyson is being truthful in the information included in this dispute from his company, he will have no problem authorizing me to go into his PAL and/or PAM community chats to ask a few of my questions already stated. If everyone has been provided this TOS prior to signing up for either of these programs, none of my questions will be concerning to his members as they would have already seen them.
o Are all PAL members aware of the PassiveApps Terms of Service? If so, when was this provided to you?
o Are all PAM members aware of the PassiveApps Terms of Service? If so, when was this provided to you?
o Are all PAM members aware that they are no longer eligible for the PAL money back guarantee once they sign up for the PAM program?
o Do all PAL members understand that their white label apps built through the PassiveApps AI will only allow recorded videos and a chat function per Lucas’s newly created content video? Anything outside of that business scope must be added with development expertise provided by outside development resources paid for by the member.
o Do all PAL members understand that there have been NO white label apps provided through the PassiveApps AI through 10/01/24 and that the PassiveApps platform is still in a proof-of-concept state?
After I sent this to PassiveApps on 10/09/24, my access to both programs was removed without notice. I had warned them of being forced to draft this review, but, I was hoping I would not need to. They denied every refund request and used a Terms of Service document I was never shown as justification. Any future buyer can see this in the WHOP payment screen. There is now wording referencing a TOS never shared and the page itself only links to WHOP's terms of service.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY WITH THIS COMPANY

THIS COMPANY HAS NO PHONE NUMBER AND NO ADDRESS. THEY ARE NOT TRANSPARENT WITH THE WAY THEY DO BUSINESS.

THEIR SUPPORT CHAT DID NOT RESPOND TO MY INQUIRIES AND THEY SAY A PERSON CAN CONTACT THEM THROUGH THEIR DICUSSION FORMAT FEATURE. NO ONE FROM THEIR COMPANY RESPONDED TO MY DISCUSSION!

I tried to solve my problem through their online portal where there is a chat feature and never received any responses. I sent them several emails to cancel my account and issue a refund stating my right to 3 days right of recension, but they have failed to respond. I filed a dispute with my credit card, and I doubt they will respond to my emails. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY CUZ IF YOU DECIDE TO CANCEL, THEY WILL NOT ACCEPT YOUR REQUEST UNTIL YOU HAVE BUILT AN APP
