This is a quote from the home page of `zoxpro.com`: > Achieve a MINIMUM SPEED of 25,000+ words per minute – over 100 times faster than the average level of reading. After all this time, we still haven’t found a top speed limit! Be able to ‘upload’ books into your long-term memory in a matter of minutes Here’s where it says that it will give people 77% comprehension at 25,000+ words per minute with 100% retention for life: ![zox-pro.png](https://forum.artofmemory.com/uploads/default/original/3X/5/8/58b2722813c7b253c078cf7830f11f51c4193425.png) In my opinion, those feats are impossible.

Not only that, but there is something odd about the testimonials. Here’s a screenshot of an endorsement from a guy named “Will Baker”: ![zox-pro-will-baker.png](https://forum.artofmemory.com/uploads/default/original/3X/e/f/ef9c28f764d4d08cdc5173de531ea89786a5559b.png) Here is the same photo on another random website[1][2] about types of people you meet in college: ![will-baker-again.png](https://forum.artofmemory.com/uploads/default/original/3X/8/8/882deac2031010041b5ec25bea4a218bfdc87a87.png) Here is the same photo giving an endorsement of a product called absoluteattraction[3], but this time his name is Jerome C.: ![jerome-c.png](https://forum.artofmemory.com/uploads/default/original/3X/6/4/645e6cf09ab13b0b462270906fe0f0765330e1a8.png) Here is the same guy in a baby blog[4]: ![zox-pro-oral-health.png](https://forum.artofmemory.com/uploads/default/original/3X/c/a/ca9bcabad881d06c83ba57687e31109b42428e44.png) I found the same guy over on a [blog post about portraits](https://web.archive.org/web/20140214012110/http://photography.tutsplus.com/articles/50-magnificent-male-portraits--photo-6621), which has the photo linked to a stock photo site called sxc.hu[5]: ![zox-nettuts.png](https://forum.artofmemory.com/uploads/default/original/3X/d/8/d898c640d36fb7fb7b33b64d5f149a3b4d60818a.png) The stock photo page was deleted, but a version is available [on archive.org](https://web.archive.org/web/20130621060604/http://www.sxc.hu/photo/1196982): ![zox-scx-hu.png](https://forum.artofmemory.com/uploads/default/original/3X/7/3/739b4da4b63bb748dc330b9bb1191fb23de25711.png) So it looks like zoxpro .com and/or absoluteattraction .net might be using a stock photo and fake name for at least one of the testimonials. ### References [1] `degreescout. com/education-degrees/20-%E2%80%9Ccharacters%E2%80%9D-of-college-online-and-on-campus` [2] `degreescout. com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/1196982_-_ha_ha_ha_ha_-.jpg` [3] `absoluteattraction. net/absolute-attraction-program/` [4] `babymed. com/blogs/richard-banks/your-mouth-may-be-key-your-fertility` [5] `sxc. hu/photo/1196982` (photo removed, but see the [archive.org](http://archive.org) link) ---

What does it teach you to do? ---

I did a reverse image search by uploading the picture into Google Images. 🙂 You can try it by going to [images.google.com](http://images.google.com) and clicking the camera. Paste [this URL](https://web.archive.org/web/20130503090607if_/http://zoxpro.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/dude11.jpg) into the “Paste image URL” box. It should return a list of over 150 webpages that contain that photo. ---

Strange, I’m still seeing the results here. Maybe it’s different by region.

> [@Josh](#): > > Maybe it’s different by region. I think you’re right. I can still only find one image (see screenshot). Remember that recently Donsie told his pal, Vlad the Impaler, “Stop interfering with our scammers” (nudge, wink, smile). [I think that’s the first time I’ve seen Donsie smiling. Scary.] Based on their previous Helsinki agreement, Vlad interpreted that statement to mean “Flood the US with scammers”. ![image](https://forum.artofmemory.com/uploads/default/original/2X/9/90b0c3bc110589d7d870d1c6d201f6b4b95a24bf.png) [Next page](https://forum.artofmemory.com/t/does-zox-pro-work/29032.md?page=2)
