Sextius Niger sequens

This take is way off. First, you’re cherry-picking a tiny fraction of bad actors and trying to paint it as “what Brazilians are doing.” That’s not reality — it’s just sensationalism. Second, fraud isn’t a “Brazilian strategy.” Scammers exist everywhere, including in the US. The difference is simply where you’re choosing to look. Third, the idea that people operate freely “because the FTC has no jurisdiction” is naive. Cross-border enforcement absolutely happens — through cooperation with local authorities, platforms, and payment processors. Accounts get banned, funds get frozen, and people get prosecuted. And lastly, hitting 1M views/day with VSLs has nothing to do with scams. Plenty of legitimate marketers are doing that with solid creatives, good funnels, and real products. Blaming an entire country instead of calling out specific illegal behavior just makes your argument weak.

Brazilian guys are doing $1M days with VSLs using ABOs… Here’s how: They find a winning creative… And instead of scaling it the “normal” way, They go aggressive. 1-50-1 structure: → 1 campaign → 50 ad sets → 1 ad (same creative) $1 per ad set = $50 per campaign. Then they just launch… a lot of them. Why it works: $1 ad sets = cheaper CPMs → cheaper clicks → better CTR/CPC → easier to get volume But here’s the catch: Each new fan page can only run ~250 ads. So they don’t just scale ads… They scale pages. I know guys with 40,000+ ads live. Hundreds of fan pages ready. Find a winner → flood it.
