Social media sensation Ashley Grayson was accused of being a scammer. What’s the truth?
Formerly a post office worker, Ashley claimed to have quit her job in 2017 to start her credit repair business, which, according to Ashley, more than tripled her salary.
After she made her first million dollars, she invested her earnings into her business coaching company, which allegedly made another million in just 40 minutes … or so she says.
Much like other financial gurus on social media, Ashley offered her followers access to courses and one-on-one mentorship. However, Ashley’s services came at a very steep price. Not only that — but her teachings were also proven to be ineffective.
