  • Fraud practices by creators

    Unfortunately, as a free plugin, you can't do anything with it, you have to pay $39.50, and the price on the website is misleading because it's always listed as $79, with the promotion lasting all year long, it's cheating people by misleading them into thinking that they have to buy it now suddenly, otherwise the promotion will disappear, if the creator practices such tactics, you may doubt how this plugin works, I'm fed up with such liars, put a real price on the website and stop lying to your customers
