I have the #1 top post in r/smallbusiness this month, and it's 100% FAKE.

General

A few days ago, I wanted to see how easy it would be to go "viral" on Reddit. So I spent 3 minutes writing a completely fake post about how I "just crossed $1 million in lifetime revenue and have nobody to share it with"**.

Here are the results:

  • 137K+ views
  • 1.1K+ upvotes
  • 255 DMs received

Moral of the story: Don't believe everything you read on the internet. When you see a crazy post on Reddit (or anywhere for that matter), take it with a grain of salt. Don't get scammed.
