This website is an educational project designed to expose the deceptive practices of online IQ testing scams and educate people about real intelligence assessment.
If you just tried to pay for an IQ test result, you've experienced firsthand how these scams work. This entire website is a parody designed to educate you about online testing fraud.
These are real stories from people who were scammed by fake IQ test websites. Learn from their experiences to protect yourself.
User reports: "I was scammed by IQInstitute.org. They charged me $19.99 for an 'IQ certificate' that was completely worthless. When I tried to get a refund, they ignored all my messages."
Warning signs: Charging for certificates, fake credentials, no contact information, and poor website security.
User reports: "I was scammed by an IQ test website called Brainety. They charged me $29.99 for 'premium results' but never delivered anything. They refused my refund request and I had to dispute through PayPal."
Warning signs: Free test with paid results, misleading pricing, no privacy policy, and fake testimonials with stock photos.
Remember: Legitimate IQ tests don't charge for basic results, use pressure tactics, or make unrealistic claims. Always research a site before providing payment information.
Intelligence is multifaceted. IQ tests measure specific cognitive abilities but don't capture creativity, emotional intelligence, practical skills, or many other forms of intelligence.
Unlike what many believe, cognitive abilities can be improved through learning, practice, and new experiences. Your potential isn't fixed by a single test score.
Test performance can be affected by stress, fatigue, cultural background, education, and many other factors. A single online test tells you very little.
Now that you understand how these scams work, you can educate your friends by giving them the same experience! Generate a fake IQ result to share and see if they fall for the payment trick.
