I Trusted AI Agency Mastermind with $20,000, — Here's What I Got

After reaching out to payment processors for a refund from AI Agency Mastermind, I hit a wall. Stripe and Whop.com representatives informed me in July 2025 that they'd already suspended Wyatt and Carson's accounts. The customer service agent at Stripe sounded genuinely sympathetic as she explained that “multiple customers had requested refunds“ and there were “serious concerns about how the service was being represented.“ I still have the emails from both processors confirming their accounts had been flagged—this happened right after I tried to recover my $20,000, which I had invested on March 19, 2025. Despite all my careful documentation and what I believe is a completely legitimate refund request, my twenty grand seems to have vanished into thin air.

Six long months I spent trying to get hold of Wyatt and Carson. From April through September 2025, I fired off 14 emails (not a single real reply), left 8 increasingly desperate messages on Discord, and even tried tracking down other ways to contact them. Nothing. Radio silence. Those “daily coaching calls“ they'd promised? Canceled 17 times in just the first two months. When calls actually happened, only 2 or 3 people showed up—and they seemed like buddies of the creators, not paying members like me who'd invested serious money.

The Discord community was a ghost town, not the bustling hub of AI entrepreneurs they'd advertised. Most accounts posted generic, lifeless responses with barely any real interaction. I remember posting a specific question about implementing one of their strategies—my message sat there, unanswered for 23 days. When I finally got a response, it was so vague and unhelpful that it could've been copy-pasted from anywhere.

Those training materials that cost me $20,000 on March 19, 2025? Turns out most of it lives for free on YouTube. Their supposedly “proprietary“ prompt engineering module? I later stumbled across nearly identical content on several public blogs. What they called “advanced strategies“ was really just ChatGPT 101—basic information with no concrete frameworks or unique insights.

By August 2025, I tried pursuing legal action, but couldn't locate any registered business under their names. My attorney searched thoroughly but couldn't identify any legitimate legal entity tied to the program. The addresses in their emails appeared to be temporary, making it even harder to track them down or recover my investment.
