Re: FN-FORUM: Anyone else receive an e-mail like this? Butler New Media

Hi. I recently noticed a forum topic on the Freelancers Network site
regarding an approach made by Cornelius Butler. I too have been approached
by Cornelius and had a similar experience in regard to his response to
initial concerns about the approach being a scam.

I actually went ahead and paid the training fee after reading his reply to
my concerns and have since been sent links to two websites which I have
studied and made thorough notes. (This took a couple of days of my time,
which I considered worthwhile due to the opportunity to earn $3000 in the
first month and ongoing work from there as stated by Cornelius).

Since completing the study I have attempted to email Cornelius three times
over the last fortnight in regard to upcoming training/work as I need to
organise my schedule to fit in with my contract work and running of my
business. While not being prepared to call this a scam I am disappointed
with his lack of response but understand this could be due to many different
reasons and have been impressed with his business plan and knowledge in the
area of web accessibility.

Just wondering if anyone had actually paid the training fee and had a
similar experience.


Kind Regards
