Retiree Loses Life Savings to Fake Amazon Publishing Course

A French retiree, Dominique, recently lost her life savings to a fraudulent online course promising to teach her how to write and publish books on Amazon. The course, advertised with the Amazon logo, cost Dominique €600. However, an investigation by M6's Zone Interdite revealed that the course provider, Eric Tran, is not affiliated with Amazon and has no verifiable online presence. 'It's a bit bizarre,' Dominique commented, expressing her disappointment. Jean-Baptiste Boisseau, founder of the website signaler-arnaque.com, confirmed the lack of transparency surrounding Eric Tran and the course. Amazon also confirmed it had no connection to the training. This incident serves as a cautionary tale about the importance of thorough research before investing in online courses.
