I paid $4000 for the purchase of an online ad campaign. The company's guarantee said I would receive the $4000 back with any commissions earned in the campaign. They also state that if the company terminated there agreement with the clients then the client would receive their initial payment back ($12,000) minus commissions paid.
The company has completely stopped business and communications. No email, or phone responses. They have deactivated the campaign platform. You can not reach anyone, even if you try from the website.
They have not paid any of the money owed to me from the campaign, and according to their agreement I should be receiving money toward the refund of my initial payment also. They have not responded to any of my official requests for payment.
Now I am finding other that share my same experience with Matt Graham and OnlineAcademy.com
The offer was to pay $16,000. Then you are able to access their advertising service. This allows you to do ad spends for $4000.00. They place all of the ads. They had a video of a man from an ad-buying agency that claimed that Matt Graham turned over a million dollars of advertising per month. Anyone who spends that kind of money on advertising should know what they doing.
After you place the ad spend, at the end of the month you would have a profit share because you put up the money for the ad. The profit share was stated to be anywhere from $100.00 to $5,000.00 per month. Thus making back your initial buy-in in about 6 months. After that, you could continue to profit for as long as you wish.
I was able to make one billing cycle. On the second billing cycle, just days before I was to receive a payout, I noticed links not working.
I sent an email to support and got nothing back for several days. Then on August 25th, I received this notice:
Online Academy has had to temporarily interrupt operations. We are working with our advisors and attorneys to resolve current issues around the campaigns and payments and hope to have answers for all investors and business partners on next steps by September 5th. We apologize for the inconvenience and will have answers as soon as we are able, but no later than September 5, 2023. We will be back in touch as quickly as possible. Thank you for understanding and apologies for the interruption.
September 5th came and went. There have been no answers, no phone calls have been returned, no emails have been returned, they just disappeared. The website is down, all the videos are down and that's it. They are gone.
There are many victims here. I started a FB Page and so far there are 8 people on it. I know there are many more as well. Everyone is out about $20,000.00.

These guys were all over YouTube advertising about how they are so successful at this ad campaign business they offered a service of investing in ad campaigns with a monthly return on investment well after two months and one return later they went completely silent no response. The offer was 3000 dollar management fee and a recurring 1000 dollar a month ad campaign, all of the original investment of 4000 was stated and promised multiple times again and again to be fully refundable. However I have tried for weeks to contact them and get my money back and there has been no response. I would like to collaborate with other victims and file a lawsuit against these individuals and this company.
I've seen posts about this opportunity. I want to let everyone know that I have been a member since June of last year. I spent $10,000 to get in and after a few months before seeing any money coming back, they changed the structure. Supposedly we could put in either a $2,000 ad campaign or a $4,000 ad campaign either making zero and up to two and a half times that amount. I had a few campaigns And made a total of $6,500 back. I put in a $2,000 campaign at the beginning of August which ran for 30 days And was supposed to get the payout on September 8th. However, at the end of August we received an email from support stating they were having some issues and they would reach out to all their affiliates no later than September 5th to let them know how we would move forward. Nothing more specific than that. I heard nothing and started to email them on September 6th. Today is September 10th and I just sent my fourth email with no reply yet. I also sent three text messages to people who were associated with the company at the beginning who have no problem giving you their number so that you can pay to join. One person replied and said she no longer is part of that business and told me to email support. I reminded her I had emailed support Three times previously with no response. I've been scammed before as most of us have over the years but this one seemed legitimate enough especially for a year. I know what to do with the Better Business Bureau and other places I can warn people about these scam artists. Does anybody know what organization I can contact to start a claim possibly for everyone involved to get their money back?
Matt Graham and Orlando Diaz ran a pyramid scheme in 2022 (probably longer). They advertised all over Youtube and IG. Their contract promises to offer ROI monthly in exchange for $4000 ad campaigns for their clients. The initial buy in is $12000, plus the first $4000 campaign. They also promise to return all your investment (minus profit) at any time. They payed out $5k/mo for 4 months, then closed down shop. No respose to phone calls or emails. They stole over $20k from me and, from what I've seen online sofar, many others.
The business is called Online Academy LLC, based in Richmond VA. The owner is Matt Graham and his partner is Orlando Diaz. Acording to his Facebook page, Orlando lives in Miami, FL.
I invested $12,000.00 to register with Online Academy's online marketing program. They claimed the $12,000.00 was for their expertise and software. On top of the $12,000 they required an investment of $4000.00 to be included in each of their marketing campaigns. They promised a return of no less than the initial investment of $4000.00, but with the possibility of earning an additional $6,000 for each campaign. Over the course of 9 months my average earnings per campaign was $1,000.00. I asked them if I could see a breakdown of how the campaigns were doing but they couldn't provide details. It seemed to me like they were just slowly giving me my $12,000 back in chunks every month so in April 2023 I called and asked for a refund per the contract but the conditions were too onerous. Now they don’t answer calls, texts or emails.
