I blew $300 on a 'viral' course about going viral and learned nothing

Saw this ad for a course promising to crack the algorithm and get your stuff seen. The guy had all these flashy charts and talked about 'content loops' and 'engagement triggers'. I paid $300 thinking it was the secret sauce I needed. It was six hours of him basically telling me to post more and use hashtags, stuff you can find for free in five minutes on any forum. The 'exclusive' templates were just basic Google Docs anyone could make. Felt like a total scam wrapped in fancy words. Has anyone else fallen for one of these and actually got their money back?

Oof, that's brutal. Those courses are masters at making common sense sound like a secret. I doubt a refund is coming, but you've got my sympathy.

Ever actually get a refund, @graydavis?
