This post contains just one example of the lies and smear campaign. If you click on the video above, you’ll see even more evidence, including multiple instances, messages, and patterns of behavior not covered here.
Read my factual account and see evidence of how Ivan Stratienco (also known as Amazing Ivan and Ivan Michael) attempted extortion, rage quit my program after only 14 days and 12 drills, and then launched a coordinated smear campaign. Screenshots and legal notice included.
There’s been a lot of noise and drama lately, so here’s the truth for anyone who actually cares about facts:
Recently, a former student, Ivan Stratienco (also known as Amazing Ivan and Ivan Michael, Guinness World Record magician, Long Island entertainer)
rage quit my program after just 14 days, having only completed 12 drills.
He expected to get laid and pull women home for daygame with almost zero real effort.
When he didn’t get instant results (without putting in the work), he tried to extort money from me, threatening to attack my reputation if I didn’t pay up.
When I refused, he immediately started posting a hit piece and spreading lies about me in this forum, trying to make himself look like the victim.
Below is a censored screenshot of his actual messages… names and private info blurred for privacy.
This isn’t just a random troll. This is someone who tried to blackmail me for money, then followed up with a coordinated campaign of defamation and fake accusations.
This is a classic pattern I warn about all the time in the coaching and entertainment space:
- Someone refuses to do the work…
- Rage quits in just 14 days…
- Blames everyone else for their lack of results when they only did 12 drills…
- And when they don’t get what they want, they resort to threats and smear tactics.
- They present themselves as the victim… but the evidence clearly shows who initiated the misconduct.
- In this case, the individual signed a legally binding Non-Disclosure Agreement stating they would not engage in any smear campaign against me.
- Despite that agreement, they proceeded to make false public statements while simultaneously attempting to extort money from me.
- Even more ironic… they openly told others about my non-refund policy, despite the fact that I had already made a good-faith donation to them and honored the NDA on my end.
For the Record:
- I have 666+ real, verifiable lay/pull testimonials from students who actually did the work.
- I remove students who are toxic, unteachable, or try to sabotage others… because I protect my community and my results (usually only once a year).
- In this case, I did not remove Ivan Stratienco… he rage quit after 14 days.
If you see wild accusations about me or my business, now you know the truth.
Always ask for proof before believing a hit piece.
I’ll keep posting real results and receipts, because that’s what matters.
