If you have never heard of a man by the name of George Brown before, let me give you a basic rundown of who he is.
He is a man that is most popularly known for his unethical and shady marketing tactics in the world of cyberspace.
George has created many programs in the past, but none as popular as Google Sniper.
There have been many versions of this program, but his latest is its relaunch of Google Sniper 3.0
Before we get into the actual review I want to share some of the past products that this guy has created.
On Warrior Forum George Brown is popularly known as PREDATOR and below you will see that a member of Warrior Forum tried out one of his products and went on the forum to give some of its members a heads up.
Of course, there is not much information given within the screenshot, but one thing does concern me: the fact that most of the products that have been created by George Brown often result in email accounts being frozen for suspicious activity.
Knowing the possibility of what I was in for, I took some caution into using this program and this is exactly what I found.
Basic Overview and How This System Works
The very first thing you will notice, just as I did was that even after buying into the program, I didn’t really get into the actual program itself for almost 15 minutes.
Why is this?
It’s because you are forced to navigate past 4 upsell promotional offers before getting into the actual program itself.
But that wasn’t the worst part!
The worst part of the sign-up process is the fact that you are almost tricked into buying a monthly membership that costs $47 a month.
You get tricked during this process because there’s no mention of a recurring fee for use of the program, just a simple purchase button.
Just take a look at the screenshot for yourself!
If you sign up for this program, make sure that you unchecked the option for monthly access so you don’t get roped into a monthly fee.
This is a very sneaky tactic made by George Brown simply due to the fact that there is no mention of a recurring fee in the sales page.
Once you manage to get past all of the upsells, you are finally taken to the member’s only area.
Even I have to admit that this section is laid out pretty well (and trust me, I am not happy admitting that).
Upon entering you are asked to head on over and check out their introductory video labeled “Sniper Cash Machine Course.”
However, this introductory video is nothing but a 16 minute prattle about why you should promote this program.
Of course, there are other videos that teach you about the program itself but I think it’s personally ridiculous to have an introductory video that teaches you nothing about the program itself.
Remember at the beginning of this review how I mentioned any product created by George Brown has a nasty habit of getting various email accounts and social media accounts banned in the process?
Well, after watching several of these videos for myself I can see why this happens often.
You are then instructed to use your own social media accounts to promote the program. To do this, you are instructed to post several status updates on Facebook daily.
While this won’t necessarily get you banned from Facebook (unless of course, they consider it spamming), you are also recommended to directly message your friends, family, and co-workers to try out the program.
The reason for this recommendation is because the people closest to you will trust you and sign up automatically.
An example of one such post is one below:
The second part of the training offered in this program is a .pdf file that is about 108 pages in length. This .pdf goes over basic marketing strategies such as starting your own WordPress blog, how to find a niche, how to find profitable keywords, etc.
However, this training manual had its own basic flaw in it: all of the information is a bit outdated.
This manual was created in 2009 when marketing tactics were a bit shady in themselves and not as strict as they are today. You can even see in the manual that it often refers to the program as Google Sniper 2.0 which clearly it isn’t.
There is yet another .pdf file that is offered and it is called the “Google Sniper Bulletproof Manual.”
This 60 page .pdf file contains a few videos that promise the most up to date information on marketing strategies that you can use.
This is perhaps the best part of the training that is offered with this program. I will admit that it does contain some good information that you can certainly use, but then again this is outdated just like the first training manual.
So, What Is New With This Program?
As you know this program is a relaunch of the original Google Sniper 2.0 system and to be honest, not much has changed. For starters, the logo is new and that is the first thing I really see that was changed.
Aside from that several of the videos that you are instructed to view you are unable to simply because of the fact that they will not load. This makes the core value of the training material provided a complete mystery.
Who Is This Program For?
If you are new to the world of online marketing and are looking to get some basic tips on how to do it correctly, the .pdf files do have some value in them.
However, if you were to use them I highly recommend staying away from the “Sniper Cash Machine” as some of the tactics that it suggests you use are borderline scam tactics such as spamming email and social media accounts.
This program is mostly for those with little to no marketing experience whatsoever.
If you have experience in online marketing, I really do not see you benefitting from this at all.
What I liked about it
Pros
- This program is relatively easy to navigate and all of the information is laid out very well
- The “Bulletproof Manual” is up to date with helpful information and does give a decent blueprint on how to further website development
What didn’t I like about It?
Cons
- Most of the methods that are taught in this program are very unethical and illegal in some cases
- There are way too many upsells and down sells right when you are attempting to sign up for the program
- There is a deceptive and hidden recurring fee that you are not told about up front
- Many of the training manuals are very outdated and use marketing tactics that are not successful today
- This program asks you to sell to your friends and family before even teaching you about the program itself
How Much Will You End Up Paying In The Long Run?
Like I said earlier you need to pay $47 just to gain access to this program, but if you aren’t paying attention you could end up paying a whole lot more. This is where you are tricked into entering into a recurring monthly payment of $47 a month.
Check out the screenshot below
But that’s just the start of the costs associated with this program. As a matter of fact, you can’t even get started after you pay this fee for around 15 minutes like I stated above due to all the upsells you are hit with as soon as you enter the member’s area.
I’m not going to waste your time going through all the upsells they hit you with, but I’ll tell you this, if you were to invest in everything they tell you that you need then you would be looking at an additional $187 on top of the $47 monthly fee.
What Kind of Support is Offered?
I was surprised to find that this program does have a support system in place in the case you run into some trouble. The bad news is that the support system that is offered is your standard email ticketing system.
Another flaw with this support is that they make it perfectly clear and state that it may take anywhere from several days to weeks to even months before you receive an answer to your question.
To make matters worse, the support staff has clearly stated that they will offer no support as long as all of your marketing campaigns haven’t been set up first.
This support makes it clear that you will need to rely solely on yourself and the training material provided in order to be successful. In my opinion, this is not support.
They are leaving you in the dark to work this system out all on your own. I would much rather see you get around the clock help and support from a community that actually cares about you.
What also gets me going is that throughout the training the program often refers to itself as a giant and thriving community filled with marketers that are making money….but where is it?
I don’t see a forum, live chat, or anything of the sort other than a Facebook group that you can use to chat with other members.
There is no physical way that you can chat with members of the program or with the actual creator himself.
This program doesn’t even come close to my #1 recommendation for starting an online business Check it out below
My Final Opinion
To be completely honest, Google Sniper 3.0 is exactly like its predecessor the 2.0 version. While there are a few new things that are offered such as the training manuals and training videos.
Most of the videos cannot upload which makes it really annoying.
The only real valuable source of information came from the main .pdf guide, but of course, it was more informative when it was originally created back in 2009.
While there are some helpful tips in this manual, I feel that you can find much more valuable information elsewhere and get a whole lot more for your money.
The truth of the matter is that all of the information that you are given with this program is filled with shady spam tactics and unethical practices such as trying to sell to your family and friends.
Also given the fact that you are not really told how much you make per sales really bothers me.
For the standard price of $47, this is as good as you are going to get in terms of informative material, and to be honest, you can find cheaper and more valuable outlets on the internet today.
The moment you sign up you are almost roped into a monthly subscription (pretty sneaky of Brown if I say), get extremely hyped about the amount of money you can make, are deceived by deceptive advertising and are sent a sales pitch to subscribe to another so called money making program.
This is just one product that I cannot recommend to you. Honestly, there are much better programs out there that can offer you a lot more useful information than this program can.
My advice is to stay away from it!
Are you a previous member or have you been thinking about joining Google sniper?
How was your experience with it and what kind of results did you have with it?
I would love to hear about it and I know that other people would as well.

Thanks so much for this review Scott!
I had purchased Google Sniper 2 and was wondering what was new in 3.0 and whether it would be worth my time or not. It looks like the same rehashed garbage as before with a few added features. From reading your review it seems like George Brown has created quite the name for himself and he’s known for creating scammy products with little to no value.
Thanks for helping me save my hard earned money and avoid this program at all costs. Is there any other program you would recommend as a newbie who is looking to make some money online?
I look forward to your reply!
Matthew

You are most welcome Matthew!
Yea there is nothing spectacular in this newly released version of Google sniper other than a few new videos and pdf files. Nothing really new and definitely not worth your time and money especially if you’re looking to build a respectful business online and not be known as a spammer.
George Brown has quite the reputation for creating low quality products in the online space we call the world wide web. Like I said in my review, the warrior forum refers to him as “The Predator” That should be enough to set off alarms in your head the second you hear his name is associated with any product in the online world.
His training basically teaches you how to spam people on social media and this is definitely not the best way to get started online. When you make the decision to start a business online you need to have some kind of blueprint to follow, the right tools, and the right amount of support and personal coaching if you want to be successful.
You definitely won’t find this with George’s Google Sniper program and this will lead you in the opposite direction and get you nowhere. If you’re looking to build a real business online that provides you with trusted and proven training that works, then I would suggest that you check out Wealthy Affiliate Matthew.
This is where I got my start and learned how to build a highly successful business that let me quit my full time job in under a year. I highly recommend you check them out for yourself and see what they can do for you.
I will also be there to help you out every step of the way and answer any questions you may have.
I really want to thank you for stopping by Matthew and chiming in on this review and sharing your thoughts with everyone here today.
Cheers

Hey Scott,
You did it again, or I did it again. As soon as you mentioned George Brown’s name I have to be honest I did not have to read your in-depth review.
Why?
Because anything and everything this guy produces is scammy with just crap information and lowlife marketing tactics.
Like the one where he does not mention you’re sighing up for a monthly membership. And combine that with zero support, good luck getting a refund or the recurring fee stopped.
But from what I did read this is just the same useless program with a new name.
If you avoided the fist sniper you definitely want to avoid the second – oh and heads up don’t be surprised if there is another one down the road.
Keep up the great work!
Cheers

Hi Leo,
Yea George Brown strikes again with yet another relaunch of his popular Google sniper series. This newest version is nothing more than a rehashed version of his other programs. You won’t get any closer to making money online after buying this crap than you were before you bought it. It’s pretty sad when you resort to trying to trick people into a recurring fee every month by making NO mention of this anywhere on the sales page.
It’s deceptive and sneaky marketing tactics like this that has turned people off from the whole “Make Money Online” industry. Usually they say the third times a charm but that’s definitely not the case here. If his first 2 launches of this product wasn’t any good then what makes him think that relaunching 3.0 will be any better?
Thanks so much for dropping by Leo and sharing your thoughts on another one of George Browns failed attempts to show people how to make money online. I really appreciate it man.
To your continued success online
Your Friend, Scott
