Is Complete Profit Code a Scam?
Complete Profit Code is one of many websites leading to a very expensive scam run by Apply Knowledge (aka Essent Media, Net Training, YES International, Coaching Department, and perhaps other names). This same company is behind Total Income Answer, Auto Home Profits, Home Profit System and a slew of other dodgy websites.
Complete Profit Code is nothing but a landing page. There is no Complete Profit Code product. When you click to learn more about the offer, you arrive on an entirely different website!
Selling the Dream.
Complete Profit Code and the websites linked to it are trying to sell you a dream, a dream that you can make a lot of fast, easy money online. They know if they can hook you with this dream, they can sell you more worthless make-money-online products.
Bait and Switch.
The actual offer is buried under three layers of websites and at least two “bait & switch” maneuvers.
There’s a reason why Apply Knowledge hides the offer behind the Complete Profit Code website. The FTC served Apply Knowledge a restraining order, seized its assets, and is seeking to “put a permanent stop to the operations and return money to consumers.” (Source: FTC Press Release. To read the legal papers of this case, go here.)
How to Get Scammed.
If you want to get scammed, visit the Complete Profit Code website and fall for its promise that you can make money in 5 minutes and replace your job in a few weeks. Then click the “Get Started Now” button and arrive at a different website.
The second website is “Secure Job Position” at www.secure-job-position.com. This second website also promises you can start earning immediately. Plus, it guarantees you can earn a minimum of $500 for trying the program. That’s a lie. It also implies that this is a work from home job with limited positions in your area. It’s not a job.
You will notice that the website features the logos from several reputable news agencies. You can be sure these agencies have nothing to do with Complete Profit Code.
The Dangerous Part.
On the Secure Job Position website, before you can learn more about the program, you must give them your name, email address, and phone number. Don’t do it! If you give them your phone number, you are inviting legions of telemarketers to hound you day and night with expensive make-money-online offers. You can bet your boots these offers will NOT make you money.
It’s worth noting that neither website explains what Complete Profit Code is. So far, these guys are selling a pig in a poke.

Deeper into the Beast’s Lair.
If you fill in the form on the Secure Job Position website, you go to a very long sales page. This sales page promises “If You Can Spare 60 Minutes A Day, We Can Offer You A Certified, Proven And Guaranteed Home Job To Make Up To $379/Day From Home!”
This hype is meaningless drivel. This exact promise is quoted, word for word, in the FTC case against Apply Knowledge.
There’s a ton more hype about making lots of fast, easy money, plus a bunch of testimonials. Much farther down the page, we learn that Complete Profit Code is, wait, they switched on us, this web page is just a long sales pitch for something called “The Secure Job Position System.”
The Secure Job Position System is nothing more than the old link posting scam that’s been around for ages. It’s an eBook that costs $97.
Save your money. You don’t need a $97 eBook to show you how to post links. The FREE Online Entrepreneur Certification Course will show you how and it won’t cost you a dime.
The truth is, just posting links on the internet will not make you money. The trick is getting the right people to see the links. In other words, you must also know how to drive traffic. Learning how to drive traffic can take months to learn and years to master.
A Worthless Guarantee.
On the Complete Profit Code/Secure Job Position websites, you are promised and guaranteed many things. There is even a fancy guarantee certificate promising you have 60 days to try the system, and if you don’t make money you can get a refund. However, if you read the Terms and Conditions, you will see that there is no guarantee and you will not get a refund.
The Final Word on Complete Profit Code.
Nothing about Complete Profit Code or Secure Job Position System will make you money. According to the FTC, if you purchase the $97 eBook that is merely the first level of the scam.
After you purchase the eBook, telemarketers will try to sell you expensive online coaching. They will pressure you to put all of the expenses on your credit card. Ultimately, they will try to pressure you into buying additional services like website design and accounting services of dubious value. In all, the scam can cost you $12,000.
According to the FTC, most people who got involved with the Apply Knowledge scam did not create a functional business but instead incur heavy credit card debt.

There are tons of money-making opportunities out there and I came very close to signing up with Complete Prodit code.
I must be honest, I fell for the ‘dream bait,’.However, after what had happened to me two years back losing a significant amount of money to a business deal. I have learned my lesson and decided to do more research on complete profit code and your article came to my rescue.
Its evident that with the $97 book deal you mentioned, that more upsells and scams will come my way and I would be ‘milked’ out of my last cents.
The easiest way to stop this is to turn a blind eye.
Thanks for saving me lots of money.
I am very grateful.
Hi, Roopesh!
I’m glad you found my article helpful. Unfortunately, Complete Profit Code is just manifestation of this nasty scam. The scammers continually re-invent it with a new name to trick more people. When an offer sells the dream of fast, easy money, you know it’s a scam.
Thanks for stopping by,

I did visit the website for Complete Profit Code, and sadly for many, they are going to believe in the hype and waste their hard earned money on a scam. I am sure there has been many, many people that have spent $97 to get an eBook with information that they could probably find on the internet. I know when I firsts starting looking, I am not sure how many scams I paid for, only to end up minus money 🙁
Hi, Matt’s Mom!
Complete Profit Code is just one of dozens of landing pages leading to the Apply Knowledge scam. The scam appears to be the same across all the websites. It starts with the eBook for $97 and then continues with additional products and services. According to the FTC, if you go through all the scams Apply Knowledge has in store, you’ll pay $12,000.
Unfortunately, scams are a large part of the internet landscape, particularly when it comes to trying to learn how to make money online. If you can survive it without breaking the bank it can be educational and part of the process of learning how to really succeed online. Unfortunately, a scam like Complete Profit Code can destroy someone’s finances and confidence to such a degree that they never try again.

Hi, Gary,
From all my experiences in looking at online money-making opportunities, (both the good and bad ones) that Complete Profit Code sets the record in promising a person that he/she could make money in the fastest possible time known to mankind soon after joining. 5 minutes!
I once did a review of a site, (100% a scam) that stated that a member willing to fork over $$ would be “guaranteed”, (a complete lie) in being able to make money in a few hours after joining. But 5 minutes? I surely hope that no human being on Earth would be stupid enough to believe that complete lie.
As a matter of fact warning bells should be ringing loudly inside the head of any person thinking about pursuing this venture with the fact that he/she would be required to provide his/her personal info, including a home phone number.
As you stated, the individual just might as well give out engraved invitations to all solicitors and scammers present in the world to call him/her at all hours of the day trying to present more opportunities to lose even more money in fraud ventures that smell as bad as sour, 5- week old opened milk.
It boggles my mind how the parent company to this complete profit code scam, Apply Knowledge, somehow remains in business and has not yet been investigated by the Feds having previously started up so many other proven bogus money-making ventures.
The tremendous scam upsells available with this program, ($12,000 !!) and as you mentioned at least two bait & switch maneuvers should present clear signs to any person with an ounce of brains in his/her head that this is a program to be completely avoided.
It’s a shame that such fraudulent opportunities still continue to promote the Internet, Gary. However, thank you for being an individual who is willing to spend so much time in research to present online reviews at your dedicated site warning people to pay attention and not get involved in a scam such as Complete Profit Code.
There is a much better alternative and it is called Wealthy Affiliate!

Hi, Jeff!
I agree, promising people they can make money in 5 minutes has to be a record. Of course nobody is going to make money in 5 minutes with Complete Profit Code. Nobody will make money with Complete Profit Code – Ever!
Apply Knowledge has been investigated by the FTC and prosecuted, however, they are still in business. They have multiple corporate names and untold number of websites. Because they are so evasive, I’m surprised they are based in the United States.
I find that most of the scams reported to me can be traced back to Apply Knowledge or MOBE.
Thanks for stopping by,
Gary
Now it’s easier for us to detect scam websites, they simply promise you to make money fast, when I hear that I automatically know it’s a scam, there’s no way to get rich overnight, every business needs lots of time and effort to generate money.
Thanks for your valuable review!
Hi, Rawan!
You are so right. Perhaps because scams like Complete Profit Code promise fast, easy money, many people want to believe there is a secret to making tons of money online quickly or that there is a magic software that will do it for them.
One of my greatest pleasures is helping people learn to make money online and one of greatest frustrations is when they quit because it’s not working fast enough. With very few exceptions, the people who make a lot of money anywhere had to put in years of work before they realized their goal. Most professions take 6 to 8 years of college, plus internships and residencies and tremendous student loan debt.
In comparison, building an internet business the right way, costs very little and does not require any debt. It does however, require work and commitment.
Thanks for stopping by,

Sometimes I feel like there is no real honesty left in the world. Complete Profit Code is probably raking in big dollars scamming desperate people who believe their hype. Thanks for writing this post and alerting me and others to yet another online scam. I am eternally grateful I joined Wealthy Affiliate. Just sheer good luck I guess.
Hi, Margaret!
I often feel the same way. I grew up during a time when we left the house unlocked and the keys in the car. We knew there were bad people in the world, but they weren’t in our neighborhood. Now it seems the internet has brought them into our home!
Like you, I’m grateful for Wealthy Affiliate. I joined two and a half years ago and immediately felt renewed hope that I could succeed online. It hasn’t always been easy, but it has always been rewarding.
Thank you for stopping by,
Gary
